DING DING DING DING!

Players drafted in the 6th and 7th rounds have between a 10-15% chance of making the team, so yes, certain rounds count significantly less. https://www.google.com/amp/s/en.as.com/nfl/nfl-draft-odds-what-percentage-of-players-actually-make-a-roster-n/%3foutputType=amp

Who knows? Andre Reed was a 4th round pick. Terrell Owens was a 3rd rounder. Both were guys from small schools who were relatively unknown. The point is that they're not even taking a chance on anyone. And no, 7th rounders that they draft solely for special teams don't count. The WR room blows, and they're fine to roll with it because the coach ultimately doesn't like an offense centered around downfield passing.

People really underestimate just how much Allen bails this offense out. There was a point late last season where analytics showed his receivers getting the least amount of separation in 2024 (Ravens had the most). Just tons of plays of him running around, looking for anyone open, not finding them, them having to try to thread the needle. It's not sustainable long term, and not doing everything you can to help your best player because you expect him to constantly pick up the slack is not going to translate to Super Bowl victories.

Plus they already drafted a guy with multiple sexual assault allegations. As a classy franchise, they will limit themselves to one creep per draft.

It would be one thing if it was a he said/she said thing that you could let play out, but it seems like there is pretty credible evidence of guilt. When you are apologizing, offering hush money, and blaming alcohol...I mean, those aren't things innocent people do, right?

Read the Isaiah Bond affidavit and then ask yourself if you would burn a pick on that guy. Seems there is text message evidence where he admitted to what she is accusing him of. He is probably more likely to be convicted of a serious crime than he is to be drafted.

There are teams in this league that would lose 1 or 2 games a season tops with Allen, and he ended up with a coach who wants to emulate the Kordell Stewart-era Pittsburgh Steelers.

We never got over the loss of Lee Smith.

Whew...I got nervous when the last pick wasn't defense. Reassuring that we're back on track.

McDermott wants a run-first offense. Even though he has the league MVP at QB who also happens to have probably the strongest arm ever, we need to run and play Cover 2 defense. That's how you get close to the Super Bowl.

Got the defensive covered, now the priority is special teams. It actually is funny.

Jayden Blue sounds like the name of someone who wins Best New Starlet at the AVN Awards.

I think I've seen enough to come to the conclusion that they way they coach defense in general is never going to change and that they will likely continue to give up important drives at the worst times. They need to go all in on offense to try to win shootouts against KC, but they are going back to the drawing board and using the exact same blueprint that hasn't worked. They're just incredibly stubborn about winning on their terms only.

It makes for good TV. He's bickering with one of the other hosts right now haha
