Anyone balking at him in day two is being mighty dramatic

A low value piece to make a big move at the same position seems unlikely but you never know

Quarterback cravin Aaron Maybin would’ve been a junk pick at 15

I think a trade back and trade up pair is very possible if we don’t have a top 5 guy slide to us at 9.

This hopefully helps perspective on paying a WR or DE upwards of 20m. With the cap shooting up, salaries obviously do too.

Who knew a bills board would be so defensive over a New Orleanian making a joke about Shreveport?!? Im going to remember this and be a huge killjoy next time one of y’all say something disparaging about Poughkeepsie ?

Why would that pick require secrecy, other than embarrassment shaming them out of it if known prior?

There were some pretty detailed articles that popped right up. Mayday be fabricated. Lying about weights was likely pretty common 25 years ago. But yea pretty specific in the weights listed.

From all I’ve seen, sapp peaked at 334 lbs but entered the league at 285 and returned to that weight for the raiders. It seems you found a pic at his heaviest there

Can we all just agree the cards are a train wreck and anyone’s unlikely to succeed there? I’ve always enjoyed cards stories such as these: http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2009/03/03/cardinals-stiff-former-coaches-out-of-super-bowl-bonuses/

I haven’t seen much penn st lately but a taysom hill role isn’t crazy if he’s actually a grinder that can take big hits

Thats kind of the point of my joke. None of us could. Cause it’s Shreveport.

In Shreveport the bar isn’t particularly high.

Generally agree, but a dominant defense can be part of not asking him to do tooooo much ala Wilson and kaepernick squaring off back in the day. You also still have alllll that extra cash to spend on offense right now. Could even utilize some midrounders traded for established vets on pricy deals. Really my biggest knock on it is would we pay both guys if heaven forbid they are both beasts down the line. 1st world problem there though.

It happens more than you probably realize and if we have 3 guys that are good in space, it’s not terrible. The flip side is in a big nickel package situation would you rather our 3rd safety or a guy like white and just stay base? I’m not saying we cut nickel totally but there’s obviously some flex in what makes up the percentages we are in that package. plus, again, injuries at LB aren’t rare and it seems to be a key level in McDs scheme.

Milano and they don’t run nickel as much or they rotate packages a bit to keep guys fresher or the back up lb filling in because someone’s hurt.

But when the thoroughness and detail doesn’t really back his hypothesis and he still shoehorns it... well... ill stick with with my opinion that this wasn’t actually a great article, even as a fan of most of his content.

I feel like he wrote a lot more than needed to try to make a point he didn’t really get to... to argue tre white was an official visit because he visited beane before Whaley picked him and that he thinks hock had a secret visit that his agent is hiding so therefore because the bills always draft an official visitor and hocks a strong possibility because he was actually maybe a visitor really didn’t need THAT much.

Hocks not going before us. Lucky us if he does.

Could be the other half of the Oakland rumors. Wouldnt be shocking to add a ton of talent around Rosen (or picks to later replace him)

How often have even you or I been less than our best because of a fight at home, or a bad back keeping us awake or? There red was an article a few years back about how badly beat up Jason Taylor (dolphins) was during his career without ever being listed on a report. Just shocking and totally changed my perspective on how little fans actually know behind the scenes.

Then you roll in scheme, personality fits, injuries, home life issues on top of those (I think a lot of guys are playing far more hurt than we like to acknowledge any given day)

https://mobile.twitter.com/PFF_AustinGayle/status/1116118068420386816 good on him and a nice reflection on him being engaged... but genius? Unless I’m missing something... It does show he likely will study what those guys give him though.

Seeing the link to his system... he just picked 5-6 moves and charted how often they tried them and how often they worked, no?

How many coaches stick with the plan of not running their own systems?
