to me the draft still seemed like typical beane but, my interested in seeing if rookies see a bigger role earlier now.

He must have been beside himself with excitement when he seen that.

yep...comes down to his learning abilty. atleast the physical ability is there....hopefully faster learner than edmunds.

Elarms-Orr is a well-built linebacker with above-average athleticism but problematic instincts. He has the speed and athleticism to get to the football from sideline to sideline. However, he frequently struggles with recognizing blocking schemes and too often loses track of play development. He’s rangy but average in zone coverage, with talent as a blitzer worth continued exploration. He will need improved processing but should dial in as a backup with a full-time role on special teams.

didnt Beane and Terry come out and say this after they fired McD? that was Beane's selling point to get rid of Mcd to Terry. He could cover up his drafting...blame bad drafting decisions and production on McD.

I'm open minded enough to wait and see. parker seems like another groot. I would have much rather had rodriguez than Igbinosun. I think he would have made a bigger impact. There is always a wait and see mentality but it "feels' underwhelming.

Beane seems to be more intent on drafting value that has potential than drafting proven success.

Diggs was def a tier 1 but...thats like saying he drafted josh .... other than the drama....that shows you what taking acutal talent does for you.. pay once and be done.

has he ever played safety? From what i read he is best in the slot...I imagine they think they can coach out his bad traits. i do like his size...so we'll wait and see.

I thought Dan Fetes did a good job when he said "you cant build a roster of value, you build a roster of talent. I feel like we thow so much value the roster over and over. we draft for value and then they dont work out so we buy value in free agency and they dont work out. its rinse and repeat and we constantly repeat this cycle. Another issue is swinging and missing on talent picks. we brought in max last year and first thing he does is get injured and then the rest of the year he didnt do much so we now have to bring in another cb because we dont trust him to stay healthy. we brought in 900 value wr's through free agency that did nothing, but then we are burnt out on bringing in wr's and we cant afford to bring in more because we have to replace other value pics that did nothing.

yeah but according to Kirby..they still went down 3 times!

he marks a lot of boxes..

are these names for real? sounds like wwe supertarts Red Murdock Diego Pounds Toriano Pride

negatory. we need to breathe new life into this team.

the hell does that even mean?
