LABILLBACKER

In 2019 Joe Brady won the Broyles award for being the best college assistant coach ( wide receivers ) in the nation. He had 2 guys you may have heard of named Chase & Jefferson. If he doesn't know what to do with a DK Metcalf, then we're in bigger trouble than we thought.

Exactly, we could land DK and still draft defense with 56 & 62.

I agree, start with Garrett then Crosby. If there's no deals there to be had, go after DK. Then draft D.

I personally could care less which player between Coleman or Kincaid gets thrown in to sweeten the pot. Unfortunately I don't see either panning out.

I would agree if we were guaranteed landing either Garrett or Crosby. But those scenarios are not a given. Then factor in Beane has kinda sucked drafting defensive players. It's basically pick your poison. Keep trying unsuccessfully to build a D that can stop KC?....or increase your scoring level from 30 to 35? Choose, but you can't have both.

We're probably releasing Milano anyway after this year and I'm not paying Cook 15M. DK at 27 / 6-4 / 235 and 4.33 speed is the WR1 Josh & Joe are waiting for. Metcalf won't cost as much as Chase. Shakir won't cost as much as Higgins/ Cooper. Then re-sign Hollins cheap. It can be done without losing Kincaid/Coleman.

The legend of the lunch pail lives forever.

He's just very polished and his drills yesterday proved that.

I'd love to land Metcalf but only for a 2nd & 4th.

I'm sure he will after today.

We need a HC I can compliment.

We keep missing out on SB's and there will be an execution.

Harmon looked solid and moved up in my board. Pearce is going to be disruptive.

I'm starting to agree with this scenario. Let Bernard & Williams run the 4-2...

Anyone who mentions anyone other than Mario is just being silly. We've had exactly 2 elite pass rushers since 1990.

They all bite us in the ass. They assess talent better than us so therefore they know they can fleece us everytime. Just stop helping the one team we can't beat.

First the OT rule and now this. Adorable how the league realizes they screwed us, so they make a change that would've been helpful up front. I can't remember the last time I saw a chain gang come on the field for a measurement? Baseball will have a long overdue digital strike zone. Just embrace tech and get these spots right. Humans are too flawed.

I completely agree....we don't need to overhaul the scheme, but McD must be willing to tweak it some. Replace someone like AJE with Garrett, Cosby, hell even Sweat or Landry would be a huge upgrade. Then use that extra 2nd round pick on DT (assuming bpa). Once the front 4 can generate more consistent pressure, Sean will have the luxury of calling man coverage more often.

Agree....We have to attack both strategies. Go after the big splash pass rushing DE we've needed since 17 was drafted. And as much as I've lost some faith in Beane's ability to draft D, he must target a 2nd round DT. This ridiculous rotational "revolving door" of DT's isn't working. Rebuild the D starting with the DL. Not the other way around.

Exactly...start at the DL and work your way back. I'm paying the DL the lion's share. My order of preference would be Garrett, Crosby, Hendrickson, Sweat, Landry. Mack is too old.

Until it wasn't in the Chiefs game. We executed terribly in that game. I'm not losing sleep if they ban it.

I'm not as caught up with scheme anymore. Sean will always emphasize his version of the zone and that will never change. Our current problem is not x's or o's, it's Jimmy's & Joe's. Our defensive personnel are to small and injury prone. They just are. They can't survive a regular season. By the time playoffs start, they start falling like dominoes. We relied 80% on generating takeaways in order to mask our defensive deficiencies. Get bigger, stronger and hopefully this new conditioning head will turn things around?

....it better be a big one...at his age, snap count and production, we're just not getting the value anymore. We took a swing, we struck out.....It happens.....You move on and get younger. I'm not paying a 36 year old "3rd down only" pass rusher 12-16M. Draft DL and hope you hit on someone. You know what you have with post ACL Von. And it's not exciting.

Completely agree...love the advancements Cook made this year but I'm not paying him over 10M tops. Same goes for Groot. Maybe 13-14M but that's all his production is worth. Oliver desperately needs help. If we don't use #30 to trade for Garrett / Crosby, we better try to trade up a little for DT Grant.

You're right, it's more expensive than when DTV offered discounts. All you can do now is sign up for YTTV in September and drop it Jan 1st. Pay monthly around $83/ month which comes out to $332. The playoff games in January are all on national networks. Don't pay for the whole year.
