    I suspect they had about a half dozen WRs with similar grades so they knew they could move back, stockpile some more picks, and get one.

    Beane said he didn’t have 32 guys with first round ratings. So he moved back and got more picks. Simple. And Worthy was apparently one of those guys.
  3. oldmanfan
    Thought we’d move up for him. Could be DeJean

    No defense selected. Such is the league now, all offense.

    Anybody just hear a gigantic scream of frustration from down South?
  6. oldmanfan
    Just north of Indy. Will make my own weck rolls and get some really good beef.

    I think he’s had conversations about moving into the top 10 to get a guy like Harrison, but didn’t like what he heard. I still think he’ll move up somewhere in round 1 to get a guy he really likes, whether it’s a WR or not we’ll see. To me a first round pick should go to someone you think has All-Pro potential, and if that’s at a position other than WR so be it.

    Why pose it as a question of such extremes?

    At the turn of the century there was a list of the thousand most important people of the millennium. The top of the list was Gutenberg because of the printing press. I vote for that because the printing press allowed for the widespread sharing and application of knowledge.

    To watch him live at the Rich was unbelievable. A phenomenal talent, one of the best ever, but also a degenerate murderer post NFL. I have no sorrow or mercy for him today.

    Funny this is asked during Masters week

    Diggs of course. Reich had the most iconic moment. Let’s not be ridiculous.

    You can’t fix stupid

    Try and trade up for one of the top 3. If you can’t make the deal stand Pat, they’ll be some pretty good ones at 28.

    We are better at safety. Two younger guys with experience in Rapp and Edwards for two older guys. We are the same if not better at DT. At LB Milano is back so better there. At DE lost Floyd but Miller should be healed up. On O line May lose a bit in the run game since Morse could pull well but should be better in pass pro. Got our two RB back. Fine at TE.

    We always bring in depth. Every team does. I think a mistake some make is in thinking depth guys should perform at an All Pro level.
  18. oldmanfan
    To me depth does not equal holes. A hole to me is needing a starter.
  19. oldmanfan
    Where at these holes? Maybe 1 guy at DE. We have starters at CB, S, LB, O line, RB, DT, DE.
  20. oldmanfan
    I am looking at starters, where you have to fill in a starting spot. They have Rousseau, Epenesa, Miller at that spot. As P pointed out they could add a draft pick ther levfor depth but it is not a hole.
  21. oldmanfan
    Can’t tell for sure with Diggs until we see who they bring in but will likely miss him a bit. Morse maybe on the run game unless McGovern can pull as well as Morse did, but may be stronger there in pass protection. Floyd a bit. Not at safety and I think Hyde may very well be back.
  22. oldmanfan
    I’ll offer an opinion on September 1.
  23. oldmanfan
    I’m not so sure it’s out of the ordinary. Would have to compare to other teams.
  24. oldmanfan
    Why should they have to tell the public that. They run it the way they run it. Beane should get credit for the good things he does and criticism for the bad things like anyone else. Given they are a perennial playoff team there have been more good moves than bad.
  25. oldmanfan
    Agreed. That’s why I wouldn’t be surprised to see Beane trade a ton of picks to get a guy at WR they see as elite.
