If it were the 90's Jim would be right. Unfortunately, that ship has sailed. Plus Cook is a pretty damn good back for the needs of this offense. Far underrated by fans (and Kelly apparently). And Harris can be that Rb2 we need for tough yeards. Please no on drafting an early RB or trading for one.

I really like some of the lineman that should be available to us in this year's draft too. I just won't assume they'll acclimate to the NFL game as rookies. That's pretty rare. The recent 2 good OL the Chiefs picked took 2 years before they were playing consistently for example. Doesn't mean I wouldn't still draft them but...

Having surgery this coming week. Torn ACL confirmed.

enough of your facts. You and the OP are doing a very good job of this all while maintaining composure. What I find the most funny here is the assumption that most responders seem to be making - that you think DS should start over James Cook (I presume that not to be the case bc why would he right??) You are merely saying that DS is a solid back that is quite good at making people miss. A good fit for RB2 if the right price is reached. But but but 4th and 1! Yeah QB's do those now, people.

On a team that needs multiple WR's in the stable to achieve their goal, you don't trade one or 2 of them away (especially Gabe lol who is a good not great WR2 that had a year of too many drops) to get another one. You try to acquire them and make Gabe your #3 or 2B. Silly peoples.

I presume nothing happens until the Josh and possibly Von contract restructures occur aye?

for the and knee-jerk detractors or those in panic - this thread from one of our local cap experts helps describe the situation with Hines -

right?

From NFL mock draft database - not sure how realistic but I'd be happy

I think the Eagles D and 49ers D have proven to have the same exact concerns stopping Mahomes and KC this year for example. Are you saying there is some defensive approach or alternative that ANY team can take in facing those elite offenses? I don't think it has anything to do with Edmunds when it comes to facing those type of offenses. All the D schemes and approaches out there seem to get beat just as easily. With that said I think it comes down to if Edmunds will accept a Mosley-esque type contract or a long extended contract as you mentioned or not. The Roquan contract would obviously be too much for the production.

What defenses do well against the great offenses with any consistency in this era? (Its a trick question)

Against great Qb's and/or offenses, you are correct... Defense does not matter like it used to. It still helps get you to 12/13/14 wins in the regular season however.

I'm with you, but there were a bunch of them tweaking out in the "josh is playing golf" thread from last week 😃

More like nothing to see here. Bunch of unfounded speculation and folks with too much time on their hands. But I realize that’s what we do here.

Jalin Hyatt is who I'd take in your scenario here at pick 27. I agree with the positions you took though. Thanks

I expect a good percentage of Bills fans to be "challenged" if you will 😂. I did NOT expect that Joe Burrow was possibly this ignorant, unless he is just playing along or something.

You'd think at least someone like Joe Burrow (forget about the moron level intellect of guys like Apple and Mixon) would understand this was the case for all the teams with a possibility of hosting playoff games the following week... Nope! Football intelligence certainly does not equal actual intelligence

change the word "the" to "a" in the thread title and you have full accuracy.

No. He said today that would not be required and then Coach McD responded in his own conference saying he assumed the same since he had not heard anything different from the team doc.

Teammates often spoke of Moulds having legendary basketball skills, so that makes sense.
