The high road would have been a difficult one to take, considering it was a media session and the reporters were asking question after question about the Henry trade situation... I'm on record as interpreting "no offers" as "no offers of substance", but that's just me
(all picks in the 1st 3 rounds):
Rohan Davey
Brock Williams
Jabari Holloway
J.R. Redmond
Dan Graham (decent player but was he worth the 21st pick overall?)
Andy Katzenmoyer
Jerome McDougle
Billy McMullen
Freddie Mitchell
Quinton Caver
Derrick Burgess
Corey Simon (6th overall?)
Todd Pinkston
I agree. That anology does not work in the most basic sense of analogies. To me , as long as TD keeps doing all he can do to make this team better and manage the cap well and rely on the advice of his expert staff, he can stay as long as he wants. He provides opportunity, not victories.
I have inside information that Modrak, Mularkey, Wilson, all the assistant coaches and scouts are mere pawns and puppets with no say. TD is running a dictatorship at OBD!
Great post FFS... I was just looking at the roster yesterday and noticed that indeed we do have a lot of prospects to work with!... There should be plenty of options to come up with something that JMAC and the other coaches feel secure with.
.....Who will be playing for another team besides Detroit, or force a move with Roy Williams within 3 years and create a salary cap mess at the WR position.
I'd probably agree with this final depth chart although to clarify your negatives on Reed, I disagree a bit. While you are right that he drops too many passes and can't create separation (on outside routes), he is quite good after the catch and does run routes pretty well, and is a very good blocker downfield. It's gonna be quite a battle between Reed and Aiken this camp IMO...
see my post right above yours...
It's true believe it or not. Players with big round asses are valued more than guys with flat asses because they can distribute power with their lower body better.
On that note, it's equally as funny to think that all these picks reflect TD, the individual when it's been clearly defined that Modrak, the scouts, and the coaches have a huge say in the picks and decisions that are made at OBD.
