  1. That's a pretty good list, especially the first 3. But..........we know where these wish lists usually end up don't we!
  2. I would take that as a good sign!😜
  3. I'm thinking Gronk or Engram are coming and Beasley is history.
  4. Great move, still young, and ready to put his speed to use regularly. Love it.
  5. So is Chandler Jones value for need at a proposed 15m/year?
  6. Scouting report from PFF: Yeah he's not the fastest, but neither is Levi, and if you'll notice I said draft a CB too. To my eyes and apparently some others he is an inexpensive insurance policy as a #2 Zone CB. Haden was looking for a contract extension before the 2021 season, but the Pittsburgh Steelers didn’t oblige. It’s likely he will now be playing elsewhere in 2022, but he’s still a solid zone cornerback with a high floor entering his age-33 season. Haden earned overall and coverage grades above 60.0 in each of his five seasons with the Steelers and looks to have a year or two left in him. Strengths: – Good tackler – Eliminates explosive passes – Veteran experience Weaknesses: – Lack of twitchiness – No production at the catch point (INT/PBU) – Age/Durability Scheme Fit/Role: NO. 2 OR NO. 3 CB IN A ZONE SCHEME: As an older defensive back playing much less press coverage, it’s time for Haden to take a look at the slot or play outside in a zone-heavy scheme. If playing inside is a dealbreaker, the Giants and Raiders may want to take a look at Haden. Patrick Graham and Gus Bradley run Cover 1 less than 15% of the time and allow their corners to play with the depth Haden needs to keep the game in front of him. Recent Injury History: Haden sustained a sprain in his left foot in 2021, but no structural damage requiring surgery was reported. He missed four games with the injury. Contract Projection: One year, $5 million fully guaranteed
  7. Does Treadwell still underachieve at football or did he finally retire?
  8. Like much of it, I'd rather sign Joe Haden and draft a CB high.
  9. Seems like an awful big cap hit for my tastes. Especially a declining player.
  10. Don't forget who the mighty Broncos hired as HC...a Mr. Nathaniel Hackett.
  11. For me it's many of the same things as others have posted. I've been right and I've been wrong. The big thing for me is it's caused me to seriously evaluate what I'm about to post before I do it. I guess you could call it a humility check, and to not be so strident it my views before hand. I used to be willing to defend it to the death. As a side note: I think all Americans could use a humilty check with their views on everything. JMO
  12. Yeah, some of his problem with sacks is likely decision making (holding it too long), along with poor line play. I just don't feel like he moves all that well for a modern QB.
  13. He moves more like Matt Stafford than Josh, Mahomes, Rodgers, Lamar etc. And yes you're right alot of his sacks are holding the ball way too long.
  14. Won't be a popular take I'm sure with all the Joe Burrow lovers out there, but he's a ***** statue out there and they will need to spend a ***** ton of money on the OL to keep his gimpy ass upright.
  15. Yes, If he is available at 25, I'm following and his health checks out, I'm willing to take the risk he's that dynamic.
  16. I'd draft Williams over Wilson as well. But, from what I've seen of Wilson I think you're scouting report requires another look. JMO
  17. Josh Allen is the Best Player in the NFL-bar none
  18. Being someone that has followed the growth of stats in baseball and other sports I find the misuse of the term below especially annoying! Replacement level is simply the level of production you could get from a player that would cost you nothing but the league minimum salary to acquire. The concept is pretty tidy. These are the players that are freely available and if five of your NFL level players came down with the flu, you could go out and acquire replacement level players without really giving up anything you value other than their union mandated payday. In other words, if you had no one on your roster and just needed to populate a team, you’re generally signing replacement level players. -summarized from FanGraphs I've seen this term thrown around on here a lot to reference anyone you don't think is good enough, average, are pissed at and thnk is overpaid or actually a pretty good player and you don't know what you're talking about......etc. When in reality if you are deemed a starter in the NFL, especially for a quality team, you are likely not a replacement level player.
  19. I wish someone had been on McDermott's headset for the final 13 seconds. That is all.
  20. Good riddance! Sick of listening to all the lazy, cheap stories every season about Mr. Wonderful. I've said before and I'll say it again, it's damn near impossible to think of someone more fortunate that him. That is all!
  21. I'd still take him as DC over Frazier, but that's just me
