This sounds like a terrible idea. Another old Buffalo guy. This is what got us in this mess in the first place. Let's bring in somebody from the outside who is more in touch with today's NFL.

Actually, by most accounts he's the 3rd or 4th best rookie receiver this year. Not that it takes away from your point.

Since it was actually 14 years ago I was getting ready for the end of the world as a 7 year old. Realistically I was probably playing Pokemon monopoly that we had just got for Christmas and played all the time that winter.

If Shwartz heads out then I just promote Pepper Johnson and keep the rest of the defensive staff intact.

I don't think you've watched ODB or Mike Evans... Not to mention that Evanshas better stats with a similarly poor QB situation.

7 and 8 are the only ones in which I wouldn't take the picks over the player. But those are bad comparisons because each of those players had a certain circumstance that forced a deal.

Nobody is judging the pick. They're judging the trade. You can love the player and still hate the trade.

Why else do you give up two firsts to move up five (was it four?) slots for a WR?

There's a solid chance it was a bit of panic. He wanted to make a splash to show he has "it" as a GM.

Zach Martin and Joel Bitonio are both looking like elite guards.

Do we have a Marshawn Lynch playing at a hall of fame level? Frank Gore in his prime? Funny how easy it is to be run first with Lynch or pass first with Manning. The players dictate the great systems.

They clearly don't know Martz and Cutler's history. They hate each other. Martz trashed Cutler before getting hired by Chicago. It was going well but then fell apart and Cutler said that he wanted somebody to tell Martz to "go !@#$ himself."

He's been away for a while. Would also completely shut down any Cutler talk.

If Dirk Koetter isn't kept when Atlanta fires Smith then let's nab him. Would be my first choice.

This is nothing. Demarco Murray had 474 YAC but just 395 yards.

Yea. Makes sense. The Jets and Dolphins are on 15 year playoff draughts, too. Even though the record books say that the Dolphins have made the playoffs three times and the Jets have made it six. That's obviously wrong because they play that Pats twice a year.

Bryce Petty and Brett Hundley interest me with our earlier picks. Sean Mannion is a guy I'm interested in late (5th/6th). Of course, I am still a big fan of this guy:

I'm not interested in offering him personnel control in the slightest. There's absolutely nothing to suggest that he has any clue about personnel. He may also not be interested in that. He already has a contract. If he's in the NFL he's likely not getting a gigantic raise over what he already has.

He would be my number one choice, but there's two things that say it's not going to happen: 1. Marrone isn't getting fired. 2. We wouldn't be his number 1. Might not even be in his top 5.

See: franchise tag. Phillip Rivers. He's not walking in free agency.

Forgot the obvious other cut: Keith Rivers. He'll be gone.

Cut/do not sign: Spiller Lawson Orton (if he opts in it still saves money to cut him) Chris Williams Gay Lee Smith Extend/re-sign: Hughes Searcy Dareus Mario Williams (restructure by turning salary into bonuses with a one/two year extension) Spikes (will come cheap) Sign/acquire: A legitimate QB (Cutler, RG3, Eli, Brees if the Saints get cold feet on extension, a few other potential options) Iupati Line depth on both sides Julius Thomas/Jordan Cameron if not outrageous deals Draft: A QB A guard A TE if you don't sign one A RB Depth all over

Ask my brother for the $60 back

If a chance is made I like Pep Hamilton (Indy OC).

My thoughts on Russ Brandon: he should be moved completely out of the football side of things or let go. However, I'm willing to bet that he got so close with the Wilson family that he has guaranteed job security through the sale and beyond.
