What he said ^

I think Shaquem Griffin has a good shot at DROY if he even plays medicore. It's such a great story and being on his brothers team and all. The whole situation is a PR dream for the NFL I think they're going to milk it for all it's worth.

This guy gets it.

here, there, errvrywhere.

The fact we didn't give up a 2019 pick and we got both Allen and Edmunds and still got Phillips this draft was an absolute homerun in my opinion. We just have to develop Allen properly

I don't think he would have been either. Miami was rumored to be looking, and we know Arizona was moving up for a QB. We could have sat there at 12, watched Rosen or Allen go at 10 to Arizona, then watched Miami take the leftover at 11 and been exactly where we were in 2004 watching our franchise QB go 1 pick before us.

who's this guy think he is? Tommy Noble?

I hope he realizes eventually that where he got drafted has nothing to do with anything. Kelly was in the Teens, heck Marino was late 20s. It doesn't matter where you get drafted it's what you do once you get your opportunity. I think he'll get it and get to work.

Making it sound like getting picked 10th is a bad thing. I guess Roethlisburger, Flacco, Derek Carr, Aaron Rodgers, and all the other succesful QBs drafted outside the top 10 have a gigantic axe to grind. Or they just went to work and did their job. I could see if Rosen was drafted the way Rodgers was, 23rd, and then has to sit behind Favre he would have been a problem child in Green Bay. I hope the kid grows up and gets to work other wise he won't be in the league long.

If there were going to trade us Collins straight up for Clay I'd say yes, we need a lineman. But trading Clay just creates another hole on this roster so essentially it's shuffling deck chairs on the titanic.

I have arrived

I like it.

I think what a lot of fans don't see is the culture change within the organization, all they see are the Ws and Ls and even that should be enough. Did anyone think after Watkins and Darby were dumped last year this was a 9-7 team? I had us at 6 wins and I wasn't sure that was realistic. We overachieved last year, but the Pegulas can see the plan that was mapped out by McDermott through his interviews coming to fruition. He has given them tangible results to justify everything he asked for when they brought him in. The same with Beane. He gets rid of two very popular players with the fans and says "next year I'll get us a QB" and he delivers. And I believe firmly none of this was done with any involvement of Brandon at all. I also believe that McBeane had nothing to do with him being let go they neither wanted or cared what RB did it had no effect on their day to day work. Brandon brought this firing on himself.

Wow

I hope we draft Josh Allen again next year.

Thanks. Different positions of course, i had been musing since we drafted him how well Edmunds would do as an OLB, but if we have our Kuechly that's more than good enough for me.

I'd like to see Edmunds scouting report next to Khalil Mack's.

Any more coyote sightings? Or was it something else, i can't remember.

so...do we still make Applebees jokes? Is that still a thing?

The point is it's a discussion forum, so throw out some stuff and we'll discuss

I was biased for Kyle from the start for one simple reason. I played with #95 in junior high and that was my number so I was all in on Kyle from the get go. I also had a Sam Adams Jersey that i recycled as well. Still have it. Still have my Dareus error jersey that I'm probably going to recycle as well.

Throw in Kurt Warner and Jason Peters and I think so yes.

I'll just defer to this FO knowing a lot more about this than I ever will. Daboll was with the Patriots and Alabama, he's worked under Saban/BB. Beane and McDermott have had success before through drafting. Last year's draft was pretty good considering we got a LT in the 2nd round, got a runner up candidate for DROY and hopefully a WR who can make a major contribution this season. I love the Edmunds/Phillips picks. In fact i love pretty much every pick other than Allen, so I think the issue is me not knowing more than them picking the wrong guy.

NICE! jm2009 *takes long slow drag off a ciggy*. there's a name I haven't heard in a while...

Been on Reddit in purgatory. It's not bad over there but i didn't know about this place until yesterday. I've seen Teef and TWSS on here, BadLandsMeanie, I was wondering if WallsofJerico13 made it over here. Saw Stuvian around here too. Good to see some of the old posters.
