there are a lot of WRs getting big money who were not drafted in the top 10-see St Brown, Diggs etc. I feel Beane panics in rd 1 more than not, swings for a boom/bust in rd 2 and then settles in and picks good football players. i'd love to see him just let the board come to him and pick best available in rd 1 and not reach/panic like the Elam pick

my worry about him is getting injured he is not tiny like the AZ baseball player but he is also not as big and thick as Josh. I think he breaks down in December every year.

me as well. the Bears dumped Fields for 'Fields'. 6 franchises will set themselves back this year for 4 more years.

Yes

WR1 money is something we do not need

I appreciate the work you put in on this. Still don't like options 2 and 3. Too much to give up in mho but that's why we are on this board- to discuss these things.

i do not like options 2 and 3 at all. why give up the MN #2 next year AND move back just to pick up another 2 this year. I didn't look up the value chart data but i don't see how the numbers work in our favour.

you are better than me i typically call them: Jesus Effin Christ

This is the way

this is it- bjorquez sucked as a holder and our current punter Martin sucks as a holder as well. i don;t know man. i see every packer game where i live and the kicking game was terribile when he started holding. it is more than just laces- is the ball placed correctly in the X and Y directions to mesh with the kickers stroke? this was a big part of his and Martin's problem.

Samuel takes over Diggs routes. I saw his highlight film and i was-those are Diggs' routes, this won't work. now i get it. The questions for me is who will stretch the field? Shakir or a rookie maybe unless they expect Kincaid to be Kelce.

13 seconds cost us a Super bowl-that was our year.

this- BPA in round 1 except to move up for a QB

Clowney has underperformed his whole career and still gets paid-it boggles my mind he has never been double digits in sacks. we would be roasting him by the 5th game and blaming Beane for a lousy FA move.

good for him. he earned it. wow great minds

and a third to the Patriots

Strike Oliver then but when he had Daquan next to him he could do damage. Now we are down to 1 player who is a difference maker and the rest maybes- even bleaker

QB check WR 1 not anymore TE/WR 2 maybe EDGE no DT yes LB will see with Milano I'm not as concerned about not having $40M tied up in our starting secondary like we did the last 3 years. It got us bounced early. That money needs to go chunk plays, stops and turnovers. we have 2 yes, and a bunch of maybe right now.

Agreed. The days are gone for spending money on special teams and d line rotations. It a barbell of 5-7 exceptional players, not a lot of very good in the middle and then cheap raw talent at the bottom to balance the cap. We tried to go th very good with a few difference makers and it hasn't worked.

it started this year with bloody Wednesday. We kept running it back with the too old/too expensive old guard chasing a ring and finally had to turn the roster without winning one. next year is Von, Diggs and maybe a restructure at TE with Knox to drop him to TE 2 money. No more money on special teams moving forward as well. it will be almost all youth with an old captain trying to keep it together I'm a broken record on this- 13 seconds was our chance and Mc Dermot froze up and blew it. we could have reset the roster after that, we wouldn't have needed to reach for Von and we would be looking at things in a whole different light right now.

Same as it ever was except less money spent on the D. The D came up short more than they closed things out, especially in the playoffs.

is it stupid season or what? i may have to go away and come back draft night if this is what people think is an intelligent thought. The last 5 out of 7 posts i've opened have been like this. arrrrgh

no one- we have Josh-you only trade up for a QB- this is not Madden. let the draft come to us and don't reach or panic BBB. or Edmunds- we have to get younger and cheaper= more draft picks and not blow our wad on one player.

the problem is the players want royal subs, pizza and wings every day and the nutritionist won't let have it in the cafeteria. I thought teams chartered jets with all first class seats so this shouldn't be an issue. i guess I misheard.

Agreed, it is a good short term reset and better for the league in the long run. You still have to be a good scouting/drafting team but the flash in the pans may diminish.
