Coach Tuesday

That is one thing you do see with him on tape - he’s a body-catcher and that’s probably why - and why he fell to round 6.

Amazing. Thought they had cleaned up Brandon’s mess.

Interesting that the Titans didn’t exercise Rashaan Evans’ option but are trying to sign him long-term. IMO that would’ve been the better play with Edmunds - exercising the option in some ways makes us HARDER to sign him long-term because his play hasn’t matched what it will cost.

Not 4.0.

Talk to us about Basham. I see a Tasmanian devil who will cause all kinds of chaos. But he’s older and athletically limited. What do you like?

It would make us 16-1 in 2021.

Yup as I said elsewhere he’s a Gumby-armed octopus. He will lull his blocker into thinking he’s out of the play and then reach over the guy and grab the QB by the jersey.

Amazing that he falls to Round 6 and a guy like Toney goes at 20.

The Gettleman Effect. His dumb decisions have helped the Bills land Allen and avoid Etienne. We owe him!

I’m telling you between Boogie’s chop move and Rousseau’s arms and pocket feel, they could force 5-10 more fumbles this season which could win 1-3 more games.

Doyle too IIRC.

I don’t see how anyone can say we’re the same team now that we’ve added two seriously talented lively young thoroughbreds to our d line. That was the missing link last year. For one thing I expect about 5-10 more forced fumbles this season which by itself can add a win or three to your record.

Best draft of my lifetime. They had a clear, sane strategy that makes perfect sense in today’s NFL where (i) you’ve got a franchise QB about to take up a big chunk of the cap; (ii) you need depth at premium positions (everyone does); and (iii) you did sober self-scouting to realize you weren’t affecting the passing game enough to beat your biggest obstacle to the Lombardi. Super impressed with a well-executed PLAN. This draft was the product of a clear strategic plan and I’ve literally been waiting decades to say that about this team’s draft.

I’m glad we reverted to a bland name with our last pick.

Someone will start a new Duke Williams thread over his exclusion from that list.

And then we have the dilettantes…

Best. Draft. Ever.

Ive read the article and I still don’t understand the title.

Melifonwu will likely be a backup for a couple of years at least and might ultimately get moved to safety so that the play stays in front of him - he has no idea what’s going on around him. Why would you take a project like that instead of a generational tackle prospect?

He is NOT a day one starter. His instincts are terrible. You don’t go need-shopping in the draft, that’s how you end up with Torrell Troupe over Gronk. You’ve been here a long time, I’m shocked you still haven’t absorbed this.

The draft is not for patching holes. The “we needed a cornerback” folks don’t understand how this works. Taking the 12th best corner over a premium pass rusher or LT prospect because you need a corner is the kind of dumb decision-making that produced decades of futility.

He’s a similar player to Chris Jones of the Chiefs, just a few inches shorter. But he’d be a great interior disrupter and I suspect he’ll back up Oliver in year one.

Holy smokes this is the best draft of my lifetime so far. The sanity of it, Beane’s explanations for the picks, I’m blown away. This is the approach some of us have been urging them to take for DECADES. Brown’s mirroring/feet, punch, perseverance and attitude are shockingly good. He’s a potential Gold Jacket right tackle and no I’m not overstating it.

Watching him, he plays like a slightly shorter version of Chris Jones. He’s going to wreak havoc.
