Terrible news. RIP

Looks like you’re the one who is permanently triggered.

I hope you’re right. That would be a massive mistake imo. Im not writing Johnston off. I just don’t think he will ever be a WR1. He could be a nice player. WR1? Not imo

He’s top 2 imo, but Joe Burrow is the reason the bolded is an exaggeration. He beat Mahomes in the playoffs and is undefeated vs Josh.

I don’t see how the chargers will be trading down. I think they traded Allen and let Williams go because they knew they’d be able to get Mhj, Nabers or Odunze. All look to be close to surefire WR1s. Huge questions about every other WR. Quinton Johnston doesn’t look like a WR1. I don’t think their plan is to seriously downgrade their receiver unit. Trading down would do just that.

I agree, he’s more capable for sure. As is cook imo. I just don’t know if they’d want to risk injury to an 8-10M player or our starting RB. But you could definitely be right

Could come into play come the draft. Maybe they use Shakir? We don’t have anyone else atm.

Could happen, ie John Ross and Henry Ruggs.

The 2nd WR drafted would sit the bench most of the season imo. There aren’t that many snaps to go around

I’d expect another somewhat slow play considering his competition for snaps. Diggs, samuel, shakir, Kincaid, knox. I don’t think any of the guys that will available at 28 will be 75% snap players in 2024. Possibly if we trade up for Thomas or Mitchell.

I love what they did. Low risk, low salary with some upside. I’d take both over all the QBs they had last year and it barely cost them anything. Are they long term? 🤷🏻‍♂️ but they are upgrades good enough to possibly win a playoff game or more of their D is legit

I’d take Latu over everyone except the consensus top 4 WRs. I don’t think this will an option though. He should be a top 20 pick. Can’t see him availble at 28. No chance a team like AZ should pass on him I’d also consider Murphy’Jr and Newton over any WR not named harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Thomas jr and Mitchell. I think they’re rated higher and can help transform our pass rush.

put it this way, allen didn’t flame out. our supporting cast that season was awful. Any plan had little chance of success for the 2018 season. The only thing you can go on is what actually DID happen with regards to his development. 2018 wasn’t the only season in which they had a plan for him. As a hole, they plan has worked. Acting as if his decision on who to start during Allens rookie year is the say all end all doesn’t jive with reality

I suppose i’d trade our first next year plus other picks for MHj, Nabers or Odunze. The actual cost will be too much for Beane, so I don’t think it’s an option trading up for them. i wouldn’t trade next years first to trade up for anyone else in this draft.

Shanahan isn’t playing Mahomes in rd 2 and he’s playing against bum QBs to get to the SB. if the bills were in the nfc, I think our conference results would’ve been much better

This is a poor take imo. His plan worked out great. There is no doubt

This

He really did look incredibly weak. Losing his balance and/or falling down in a couple instances in which it looked like he should’ve been able to maintain his stability. Maybe being sick had something to do with that, so I’m glad that we brought in on a visit. He was high on my list before the combine and is the only guy that really fell out of my favor after his showing

Ah yes. The great Broderick Bunkley! along with most of you, I almost died when I heard Donte Whitner’s name announced. It was Ngata or bust that year for me

Great post

I agree 💯

I think we’ve taken a step back @ S, IOL, Edge - safety- losing Poyer and Hyde will hurt imo. Some think they were terrible last year, but I disagree. Neither were terrible. Neither were nearly as good as they have been in their careers, but they were still solid, yet unspectacular - IOL- we’ve currently taken a step back with Edwards in and Morse out. -edge- we’ve currently taken a step back losing Floyd. But I do think von will be close to what floyd was last year. Call me crazy. Floyd was 💩 in the last 1/3 of the season and playoffs. We will likely address edge with one of our first 3 picks and we could end up being equal to or better getting after the QB next season. Once the roster is complete, i think we’ll be better @ WR, LB and possibly DT. -We’ll be better @ TE because Kincaid will be better in year 2. - WR- a draft pick plus samuel (and Hollins) >>> gabe, Harty, Sherfield. - LB Milano returns- Bernard and dorian with another year experience and morrow >> matawasteofrodterspotvich -DT- currently lesser due to lack of backup 3t, but Phillips and settle were somewhat negative entities and Linval was only playing because we were without daquan. I think Beane will add a better backup 3T ——we’re better at QB (Mitch > Kyle), equal at CB (with potential to be better) and equal @ RB (Murray was a jag) Overall, I don’t think we’re much worse off if worse at all. Hopefully the improvement at WR will change the complexion of our offense. -additionally, the subtraction of Dorsey will be an improvement jmo

He’s a stud. His only problem will be being drafted by the Bears.
