Makes ya more worried about the lb or S comin at you full speed I'm sure. Subconsciously trying to protect it

I totally agree. I actually smiled as I read this, cause I can see the potential in Zay. Now he gets a full off-season, no preparing for draft. He can heal up nicely and I'm sure, even if he won't admit it, a shoulder injury had an impact on a rookie WR season.

That hurts alot too..His life was football, Shazier was born to be out there, a young, elite MLB, leader of that defense, that all disappears. The Mental scars will damage more than the physical ones.

Insane?? Insane huh? I said first 100 picks. Let's check out 2017 ,shall we? 7 RB taken in top 100 1 Fournette 8 McCaffrey 41 Cook 48 Mixon 67 Kamara 86 Hunt 89 Foreman The NFL leading rusher in Hunt, likely rookie of year in Kamara, Fournette established himself as a beast, McCaffrey was a huge part of the Car Offense. Almost all 7 had significant contributions to their teams. Mixon injured alot, even he looks like he'll be a very good RB. 23 RB taken out of the top 100 Only two come to mind that had a significant contribution, Cohen and Jamal Williams. So the numbers CLEARLY show your statement is false ,sir. You're building both. We have a stud in Shady. Invest one draft pick in that position, that's all! Plenty of room to make other needed upgrades

You guys put WAY to much correlation in decisions made by completely different people with completely different rosters. Our failures in the 00's have zero correlation to this upcoming draft and potentially grabbing a RB early. Give the Amazing Lesean McCoy a great running mate for final 2-3 years of his prime. If we have one highly rated that's available I'd be totally on board. We are not that bad at OL, can upgrade through FA

I agree but I'd be on board. Imagine a Shady/Fournette ,Shady/Henry , Shady/Gordon combo. That'd be pretty lethal and could have one of the best run games period. Give defenses headaches. Helps preserve Shady and adds a great back. This also helps our QB and pass game significantly. Philly is advancing to the NFC title game off the play of Ajayi/Blount.

The human Bowling ball himself? The enigma , the Full Half back aka Mike Tolbert is a TBD legend. I do think if Beane and Co leave no stone unturned, and lead a vigorous process to finding his successor, somewhere out there will be an upgrade over Mikey "Trust the Process" Tolbert

People are flaming me but missing the point. It's about making a positional group elite and dynamic. If there's a guy in the top 100 the staff think can be a gamechanger, pair him with Shady, add an explosive,dynamic element to this offense, regardless of QB. Every team has Holes. You can't have all pros at every position, it's about building a team and again, the impact it could have is far greater than the impact a good lb will have.

A star RB is probably the top reason we made the playoffs, he was basically our only offense and did it at an extremely high level. So yea, your point isn't that effective,sir

I understand what you mean and I agree we need to upgrade some positions but the impact of a great running game can be tremendous Get his replacement when he's still in his prime, let them ball out together, watch it tremendously help the offense

I disagree. You can have something special at the position with Shady and a great complement. Why not attempt to make part of your O that much more dangerous. A great running game wins Super Bowls

I guess preferably in the draft but get Shady as good of RB that you can find. Hehas 2 elite years left, he doesn't take hits like the average RB. He's too shifty to get a good shot on, or he'll smartly go out of bounds versus attempting to get another yard , always after getting the 1st down of course. Whatever route we go with QB on offense, we must draft or take a RB in FA , but drafting is way to go , salary cap wise, spend one of our first 3 picks on RB, will make us much more dynamic and Shady will be able to share some of the load,why also most likely helping his production on the field.

Jumping the gun a bit? They are both 2 year pros , who have lost a large amount of those 2 years rehabbing on injuries. To say the book has been written is unfair. We never saw Ragland in Rex's scheme and he's just got promoted starter for KC. Shaq is very good at stopping run , the hope is he can develop enough to turn into an all around DE like Hughes. He can be situational and work his way up, we definitely need a guy to pair with Hughes! So underrated this year, numbers weren't very good but he got the hurries consistently. He needs a legit threat opposite him so qb can't always roll to his right where the rush is contained.

2 are AFC teams, potential WC teams in way, though I want that division and feel it's doable with an upgrade on offense

Hate - Pata/Jets pretty evenly Like- Giants I live in Northern Jersey, right outside NYC, have a bunch of Giant friends I respect. The Jet fanbase is a bit different, can't stand majority of Jet fans

I agree. He said he'll be playing alot more DE, where he belongs, rushing the passer. He had a MONSTER game vs Jax, was flying out there, definitely keeping him for 2.5 mil, even if it is a situational role,his leadership and ability are still well worth it

I'd like to keep Leonard Johnson too

Good. He actually did good at DE. What an overall game he had vs Jax , I was impressed

Oh yea , the L.O.B is officially over , I think our young secondary can take that torch actually, depending what we do at #2 CB,but even White,Hyde,Poyer is as good as it gets. Alot of players butting heads this year. Earl Thomas telling Dallas to get him. Wagner and Earl arguing via Twitter

I did too. Happy we got the McDerminator though. Crazy they are firing him too. Sherman, Kam missed significant time, and Earl missed a cpl games.

Ya there was a couple pass interferences they missed, he was early, ball bounced on ground but bottom line is the O controlled the ball but couldn't get points, and still , if not for a couple drops, we win the game. Dennison has to go. Tyrod,who I've strongly supported,has to go. The D is too good, Shady is too good and doesn't have much time left. This team gets better QB play and they can be a stronghold in the AFC

Defense was a Thompson drop away from pitching a first half shutout. Allowed 10 points on the road , hats off to them, we can build on this defense

Shady's locker room interview he took a jab at Taylor or Dennison. He outplayed Fournette all day . You can hear the frustration in his voice

That might be the best secondary in the game. They play as one . Huge props to the whole defense. Build around them. Get Cousins for Shady. Draft a number 2 back that complements him in the 2nd Rd. But build on that D through the draft and upgrade QB and we're contending with the big dogs

Team has a ton of potential. Could be a legit powerhouse next year. Defense is immaculate at their communication and discipline. Maybe best overall secondary. I'm on the Cousins train or Alex Smith with some hesitation. Taylor is not the answer
