  1. I think they are great announcers, some of my favorites to listen to calling college games, but I don't know if this will work out.
  2. I wonder if he will even succeed Rodgers and be poster boy Jake Fromm State Farm?
  3. I hate you That's who I was going to take. With the 60th pick in the NFL Draft the Baltimore Ravens select Cam Akers, RB, Florida St. Mark Ingram is on the wrong side of 30 and our offense is predicated on the running game. That being said we are looking ahead to a replacement. Ingram can be released next offseason to clear $5,000,000 in cap space for us if need be after this selection. Akers NFL comp in many instances is Mark Ingram and we know what that type of RB can do in this offense with Lamar Jackson pulling the defense running that read option. @Philo and the Titans are on the clock
  4. Great, now the Chinese are sitting back just waiting to crash the internet like
  5. I don't think Brady is the Brady everyone thinks he is if he is here. We suffered through years of incompetence in the FO, scouting dept, and staff. Years. Terrible drafting, terrible coaching, and bad roster decisions that put us in cap hell at points. We had key misses in the draft that we all still point to. Whitner over Ngata, Maybin over Orakpo, CJ Spiller over a host of others we could have had when we already had Jackson and Lynch, all of those decisions set us back. I know all teams have their histories, but from The Music City Miracle on ours was especially bad if not in one way crippling the franchise then another. Thankfully, now things have been turned around.
  6. I'm not saying the teams were completely devoid of talent, but AT BEST they were mediocre. It showed on the field well beyond the QB. Just because we had a couple, just a couple, of guys who were much better than the rest on our roster at one point, and may likely be in the HOF one day, does not mean we would have been any kind of threat if we just had a better QB. Maybe the teams that Rex screwed up completely? Sure, but again it falls on the coaching because he ruined the defense.
  7. 1. Peters left here in 2008 because they didn't want to pay him. Most of us knew he was good. Not on the Bills at all this past decade. 2. Lynch was jettisoned after a few off the field incidents and they just didn't feel like he fit here. Most of us knew he was good. He was only here for 4 games this last decade. 3. McCoy we got a couple of good years out of and he was on the drought-ending squad. 4. Frank Gore we just had for one year, this past year. It's been much more than just a missing QB around here my friend. At least now we have a real GM, Scouting Dept., and coaching staff who are getting things right.
  8. @turftoe The Vikings are on the clock.
  9. I think Claypool is a WR personally. I also believe WR's are wasted in the Ravens' offense. I also think if they do take a WR it will be more of a possession type or a slot guy to go with Brown. They just traded Hurst so I wouldn't expect them to use a pick on Kmet. He was the TE I was referring to in my statement.
  10. There would be no more in this draft, trust me. Kmet, Claypool, Gilman, Okwara, and Kareem are the only guys I would want. The Ravens don't need a TE, Claypool would be wasted in Baltimore (but was drafted by the Bills), Gilman unnecessary, Kareem (already got Okwara), and that is all.
  11. With the 55th pick in the 2020 NFL draft the Baltimore Ravens select Julian Okwara, DE, Notre Dame. We needed some pass rush juice and it came down to Terrell Lewis and Julian Okwara. Both are solid prospects. Aside from the length, bend, and burst he has off of the edge, Okwara has the frame where he can still add another 8-10lbs as well. Not only can he get after the QB, but he plays the run as equally well and has shown the ability to drop in coverage. We just feel like Okwara is the more complete player for a defense at this time. IOL in the 1st and DE/OLB in the 2nd. @NewEra the Dolphins are now on the clock.
  12. Probably so as far as being the better receiver out of the backfield, but they are still very similar RB's when you compare the two overall. It's like the same guy with one having better hands and one being more agile than the other.
  13. Diggs and Brown outside, Beasley and Claypool running from the slot, occasionally swap Diggs or Brown and Claypool, and then Knox at TE in 4 WR sets? This O would be unstoppable Virgil. Who are you going to double cover? How are you gonna scheme to stop all of these guys? It would be a constant nightmare for opposing defenses and DC's, especially if Josh is making the correct hot reads more consistently this year.
  14. RB's stats on a different team, in a different offense, do not matter in relation to what we are trying to do. A lot of it does come down to where Josh goes with the ball and the play calling in general. Devin's usage as a receiver in college can also be attributed to FAU's offense as can CEH to LSU's. Between the two lead backs at FAU they had a total of 16 receptions. There were 80 completions to RB's this year at LSU with of course CEH getting the lion's share as the lead dog in the backfield. Look up the scouting reports on the two and you will see A LOT of similarities all noted in the previous post. Outside of CEH's usage in the pass game at LSU and Singletary being the more agile of the two, they are pretty much the same guy.
  15. Yeah, they pretty much are the same skillset. Both are more shifty than fast. Both are on the smallish side. Both can catch the ball, though Josh and the play calling determine how many times it is thrown their way. With both being on the smallish side the catch radius is fairly small as well. It doesn't really matter what the stats are for RB's on other teams because of the previous statement about Josh and the play calling. Their scouting reports heading into the draft echo a lot of the same pro's and con's, with Singletary being recognized as the more agile of the two and CEH running with a bit more power.
  16. Claypool hit the 25 mark 1st even though we are at 27 a piece for he and CEH right now. (Now 28-27 Claypool @Virgil) There's a LOOOONG thread about him. I'm an ND fan so I admit to bias for their players, but I truly believe Claypool will be an impact WR in the NFL.
  17. We just mock drafted another midget RB who has the exact same skillset as Singletary.
  18. Nope, just happy to be getting closer to my next selection.
  19. Let's talk about what's coming up for Josh this year with Diggs. 300 yard passing games just for TSW ✔ 4000 yards passing in a season ✔ 30+ passing TD's in a season ✔ At least a 63% completion rate ✔ Talk of Josh for MVP ✔ Get ready Bills fans
  20. Alohi Gilman / S / Notre Dame - I've seen people with him all over their draft boards from the 3rd-7th Rounds. Hard to say where he will go. I think he should fall in the 3-4 category. He kind of reminds me of Poyer only he'll hit like Bob Sanders and doesn't miss tackles. Because he is so aggressive at times he will occasionally not be where he should be on his deeper zone assignments. This can be coached out of him though. I think whoever gets him will have a quality starting S for the next 8-10 years.
  21. Not moving as swiftly today
