Yeah you argued it poorly. You said 50-60, now you’re saying the first 5 picks which ended up being 141 players. So which is it? even if you still say 60, do you think McD has secret knowledge of the draft order? You say “he probably doesn’t waste time with Joe Alt,” but he doesn’t know if Cooper DeJean goes in the first or falls until the second. He doesn’t know if BTJ falls or doesn’t. So he would need to also scout those players right? And he doesn’t know we have a third rounder until draft night, so when does he scout those players? Also, what makes you think that McD has such a high opinion of himself and his ability to scout WR that he would want to scout a WR personally and sign off or veto a WR draft pick? This is the guy who is notoriously hands off the offense except for vague “run the ball” comments. Now all of the sudden he’s breaking down how fast Keon Coleman gets out of his break?

Not this year. Probably didn’t think it would be accepted after a trade out of the first round lol Dude, the first 5 picks is 141 players. We didn’t even have a third rounder until draft night. Do you think McD didn’t sleep after round 1 and watched HOURS of film of players in a round they didn’t even expect to have a pick in? I think what you fail to understand is how much time this stuff takes at a professional level. There’s a reason there’s a bunch of other scouts and football executives. They are not all getting coffee while McD reviews the film of 141 college players.

Does this mean that you believe the “he was our last first round prospect” line that BB trotted out for like 3 years.

No I’m not. Beane and McD worked together at Carolina. Beane knows what traits and skills McD likes and what player profiles he prefers. He may even consult with McD on certain positions or players. But Beane makes the picks. I’m not sure what other input you could possibly think he has. There are hundreds of prospects. McD ain’t watching film on all of them and making his board. Do you think Beane pulled up Bishop film while we are the clock to get McD’s approval? The sole responsibility of the draft is on Beane. the only draft that McD had final say on was 2017 and it was probably the best or second best draft we’ve had in a decade.

There goes the “Coleman was their pick all along” take lol
-
So you agree with GB here?
-
So what is your point? Would you prefer Beane draft 3-4 backers and ends that don’t have roles on McD’s defense?
-
Every coach has input. Some coaches run the whole thing. McD isn’t one of them.
-
This is a very funny attempt at a “gotcha” that the 7 year HC has input on the draft lol

Spotrac has his post 6/1 trade hit as $6.5M in 24 and $5.8M. So it would cost us maybe $6M in cap I think.

Better go out and fire up your Madden franchise if you wanna see that.

Treylon Burks HAS to be available.

my man, you aren’t “over the conversation,” you just know that I trumped you misrepresenting pretty much everything I said. You called me a liar, but can’t demonstrate where I lied, because it’s a complete fabrication from you lol. I appreciate your attempt to try to save face but it’s not gonna happen like that lmao. The point is that I think Brandon Beane overvalues RB’s and under values WR’s.
