Sure is... I know it's tricky for some people but I've mastered this thing. When I'm stepping on the gas, i just listen n pay attention to the road. When I bring the car to a stop, I glance at the phone and the light to change... Takes some practice but it pays off at the end...
The majority of people also consider themselves to be above average drivers. There's a reason why having a video player in operation in view of the driver is illegal. It's not something you should be "practicing". I can practice stunt driving but I'm never going to try it on public roads.
I lost my tolerance for distracted driving when my dad was injured twice (neck fractures requiring persistent physical therapy) and had both cars wrecked just a couple months apart by "multitasking" drivers rear ending him while he was sitting at intersections.

Let's say ALL our guys do well in camp, and ignore one year contracts in this consideration as it could be addressed next year.
For OVERALL success, is the ceiling Dawkins/Spain/Morse/Ford/Nsekhe, Nsekhe/Dawkins/Morse/Spain/Ford, or something else? Do Long or Waddle grab a spot if they step up?
Pre-draft I heard things like how Nsekhe might have been our best current option st RT, but his "true" position was LT. Now there's the discussion of Ford at RG vs RT. It makes me think of the value of having the biggest improvement at a single position, or shuffling the line for multiple smaller improvements. Is it better to play to a strength, or minimize weaknesses? There's the saying about your weakest link, but does that come into play as much considering play calling to work around it?

Ever since I found out there was this thing called a AUX cable where I can connect my phone and watch YouTube, Netflix, etc. in my car, I don't remember the last time listening to radio...
I sure as hell hope that's not while you are driving... ?

6 of them are rounds 6 and 7. Not a big deal.
And yet still 7 picks in the first 4 rounds. That's a bit bigger of a deal.

After snagging 26 passes in 2016, Singletary had only nine receptions last season.
Why risk a bad pass when the guy leads the nation in broken tackles and rushing touchdowns? If it aint broke, don't fix it.
-
Guys he had question marks at QB, and played with AJ Brown and DK to explain his lack of production. He's a great dual threat TE who will dominate with Allen.

Couldn’t have gotten him with the 4th pick beane. Shake my head on this one.
Soon as we made that pick, NE traded out behind us. If Belicheat wanted him, that's good enough for me.

He seems to want to lean into hits, yet still has that great cut. He's mini shady and Gore. Seems to aggressively meet the tackler.
Seems to work, led the nation in broken tackles and yards after contact (and in TDs).

Against who? Players that aren't even getting drafted?
His supporting cast was their same level. Watch his play and you'll see vision, patience, broken tackles and fighting for yards. Leading the nation in TDs and broken tackles has to count for something.
-
People getting too hung up on metrics like combine speed. Maybe watch his tape, he scores TDs.

Does BPA still apply if you trade up or down?
ive always been curious of this philosophy, and what it really means that in the draft room.
Meh, it wasn't much of a trade up. Worst case could have gotten Risner if they didn't drop a late rounder to secure Ford.

Just read that part about how few sacks/pressures he allowed, just fantastic. Add that to Morse who hasn't allowed a sack since his rookie year and Allen is going to be able to run when he WANTS to, not when he has to.

He is right, garbage at wr and TE, you keep drinking the Sean koolaid of ground and pound when guys cannot make plays down the field or get any separation. This a stupid pick, like the year we passed on Gronk. Speed and size that we needed, total wasted pick and we gave up another pick to do.
Brown and Beasley and a developing Foster mean nothing then.

Are you benching John Brown, Robert Foster or Cole Beasley for Dookie Metcalf?
DK is Stephen Hill all over again.
Protect your franchise. Let him make plays with his legs and arm.
Ford is a starting LG for a decade and can swing to T if needed. Great pick.
You get a Qb and build inside out.
Was announced as a tackle despite being listed as a guard. Highlight reel also featured him playing tackle.
-
Would have liked the higher graded Risner, but this is a great pick. Can also play guard (was listed as one) but they announced him as a tackle.
Greedy Williams would have been great too.
-
Don't worry, NFL.com has Greedy Williams mocked to us in the second (which I will be very happy with), and know of at least a couple people who will throw an absolute fit over going defense again because we apparently did NOTHING to address the offense this offseason. "Nothing but practice squad players" I believe they called Morse/Brown/Beasley/Spain/Nsekhe/Kroft/etc.

Probably around the same time that a snow storm turned into an "Artic BOMB" and cold weather turned into a "Polar VORTEX".
I've never heard of an arctic bomb, and polar vortex is a real thing that is far more than just cold weather.

Strong possibility we draft an O lineman with our next pick.
3 of the top 8 graded players (excluding QB or C) left for our pick at #8 are tackles with one being a hybrid G/T.
I disagree with the notion of some in this thread that we should draft the C/G to be a backup and compete for the other G spot, we already have one of those and can get a starter with our pick.
The other 5 top graded players are 4 WRs (including DK) and a 1st round talent CB in Greedy Williams. Even the 9th graded player is another CB.
-
All aboard the DK train I guess.

Lol could have traded down and still had their choice of QBs.

He will say he nailed it.
He said PICKS 2-10, implying multiple. Technicality.
What's our best case scenario for O-line?

Yeah I didn't see a thread about the benefits of playing to your strengths vs minimizing weaknesses. Thanks for your brilliant insight.
