  1. I think he can be a key player for us when either Benford or Douglas inevitably gets hurt. I wasn’t a fan of his interview today though.
  2. No. It’s people being logical and acknowledging that there’s this thing called a salary cap. It’s the basis of roster building and teams sometimes take a dip at certain positions. Like back to back champion chiefs did after trading all world Tyreek Hill. Their WR unit got worse 2 years in a row. And they won titles both seasons. Super talented teams sometimes get worse talent wise. That’s just reality of the salary cap nfl. Beane just said it in the athletic interview. As a GM, you don’t want to max your credit card. He doesn’t want to take his medicine 2 years in a row. He wants to build a team that can compete for super bowls over time.
  3. Only have time for some quick drive byes this morning
  4. It can’t be that easy for you. You’re obviously lying. You couldn’t have been that bothered by him, it was only 4 games. I read that right here in this thread. Be better.
  5. But it’s only 6 games….he couldn’t have bothered him that much….
  6. or maybe Peterman did bother him too much as he took the time to single him out as the guy that frustrated him the most. Percy Harvin had 6 starts. Couldn’t have bothered @GunnerBilltoo much, no? Or maybe he actually did and you’re just a troll here for one reason.
  7. Sweet. Still doesn’t make last years wrs deeper than this years. Not sure what the debate is here. I never said this years WRs are better than last years. I said they were deeper. Last year was their last run with the boys that transformed the franchise from lovable losers to SB contenders. They sacrificed some cap in order to give themselves another shot with them. It was time to move on from Diggs and there weren’t many moves they could’ve made (for a legit WR1) that wouldn’t have sacrificed long term sustainability in order to have a better WR corps in 24. The moves they made were to give them a better chance to win with Josh over the next 5-6 years rather than in 24-25 while possibly sacrificing opportunities after that. As fans, we should realize that this sort of thing is inevitable. You pay your QB 50M, s*** flows downstream and difficult decisions have to be made. Sacrifices will have to be made. That’s life in the salary cap NfL
  8. Yes, they are suspect as a group- I never said that they weren’t. That doesn’t mean WR4-6 this year can’t be better than last years. Last years WR4-6 wasn’t even a WR4-6 it was WR4-5…..which just makes more point even stronger. This years is deeper than last year. It’s just not as good 1-5(6).
  9. I don’t think the bottom half makes up for the lack of talent at the top. I said we are deeper at WR this year…..not better. Why is the term “deep” so hard to comprehend 🤷🏻‍♂️
  10. Ego/being right >>>>> the bills for some
  11. Calm down guys. RBs don’t matter as much as WRs and TEs so it doesn’t matter if we like our RB unit or not. That said- this is the best RB unit we’ve had since McCoy, Gills and eats. And I like these guys more
  12. It does though. That’s what “deep” means. Ever heard the term “top heavy” with regards to sports? Talent up top but lacking talent on the bottom. Deep is having good depth…. Hence using the word deep. Having 2 elite wrs and 4 terrible WRs doesn’t equal a deep unit. You think all WR 4-6 are all equal too? Cool. I don’t. I think teams can have better positional depth than others. I think this WR has better depth than in years past. I think our starters this year are weaker than the previous 4 seasons. yes, I think MVS and Hollins are better than Harty and Sherfield just like I thought Sherfield and Harty were better than Kumerow and dummy. They aren’t obscene takes by any means, but do you.
  13. You’re talking about a better unit. Not deeper. But that’s fine, do you
  14. I think our 4-6 will be better than theirs based on the current rosters
  15. Deep = depth. The depth is WR 4-6- It’s simple. Unless you have a different Interpretation of deep. Which is fine, but it doesn’t change my interpretation or my answer.
  16. Yes, I realize this. It wasn’t a contentious post. Just giving my opinion on the units. 👍🏻
  17. Of course I speak of offseason vaguery. I’m speculating about a group of players that we haven’t seen play together yet. I’m giving my opinion about the future…. I find it hard to discuss specifics. Dallas was the only great offense last year. Got it. They weren’t even the best offense. I should’ve just said an offense capable of winning a Super Bowl knowing someone would nitpick. i calculate “deepest” using my opinion on the WRs 4-6 in the past vs this years. It’s not very difficult. Rocket science
  18. Collins, Diggs, Mixon, Dell, Schultz I’d easily take the Texans WRs over ours, but I prefer our TEs and RBs
  19. I don’t believe we have a top 5 playmakers unit but I also don’t believe we have to have one to have a great offense. I like the group and I think it’s the deepest WR we’ve had since we’ve been here. Basically meaning that the WR 4-6 this year are the best under McD. WR 1-3 is worse than every season in which Diggs played here but will be better than the units pre-Diggs Our RBs are top of the line. Both Cook and Davis have tremendous potential in the pass game. Kincaid and Knox are one of the top TE duos in the league with Kincaid having untapped potential. That’s already 4 very solid pass catchers. All with above average to very good RAC ability. Samuel, Shakir and Coleman all with very good RAC ability and adept at catching the ball. Hollins and MVS can both play outside and excel as blockers in both the run and pass game (as does Coleman). Claypool has some appeal too but I’m not counting on him. Overall, I think we have a great group of pass catchers from 1-20 yards. It’s going to be all on Brady to scheme the 20+ passing game. I think samuel, shakir and Kincaid have the ability to separate and make plays downfield within the scheme of the play. Keon, MVS and Hollins more of downfield jump ball and scramble drill targets. We have guys that can make plays. It’s all on Brady and 17 imo. I think we’ve seen teams with lesser groups of pass catchers win super bowls.
  20. We don’t know all the circumstances on why he isn’t there, but I agree. If he isn’t missing it due to something important, this is a poor decision.
  21. I hope he on returns. More opportunity to get snapped in half
