MAJBobby Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 Just now, Batman1876 said: The youngest roster is the cowboys they have 21 guys who are rookies or in their 2nd year, we have 20. That’s the “youth movement” that the average age alone doesn’t tell you about. And the Youth are playing right because you know this was expected aparantly.

McDermott says it all the time without directly saying it. After one of the blowouts last year he said at his presser something to the effect of you need to lose before you can win. They are going to try and be competitive but they are not going to sell out to win until next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pitts Yeah, I guess I’d take him now given the current situation with Davis, but that’s not saying too much. I’d be happier with a healthy EJ Gaines. Now Gilmore? I wasn’t too happy to see him go. Didn’t cry either though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a 5th is still terrible, at minimum should have been a 2nd for a player of his ability. His contract devalued him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam727 Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 55 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Then Why is Ducasse playing? Why did Holmes and Kerley make the team NOT Coleman and Reiley? Why is Mills and or Newhouse playing? Why wasnt McCoy Dealt? Why was cap space used on players that wont be here when rebuild over? This is the latest spin after they have been embarassed for two weeks. So what happened to win now win in the future did that go out the door with 47-3? Thank you for this post. This is my issue with the current regime. I can fully support tanking now to win later. But the way they keep/start/sign these 30+ year old players that won't be here by the time they rebuild is a complete waste of resources, cap space, & in game learning experience for younger players. Watkins/Glenn/Dareus/Darby/Ragland (whichever of these players you wanted to keep) are young enough to build around. Vontae Davis, Vlad Ducasse, Lesean McCoy, Chris Ivory etc are not.

So him playing goes directly against this latest propaganda Who cares how old he is? John Miller and Ryan Groy (who, without looking has gotta be as old as Ducasse, right?) are decidedly worse than him. So why single him out?

Peter Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 (edited) We got rid of some good players for various reasons (not that I agree with them). We got rid of some of these guys because of what has been referred to as "bad contracts." We have "replaced" some of those guys with McBeane's bad contracts. We have exponentially increased our dead money. We are likely to be one of the worst teams in the NFL at the end of the season. Because we are likely to be one of the worst teams in the NFL (and we have an inexperienced rookie QB), we are likely to have to overpay to attract free agents. In other words, read "bad contracts." Rinse and repeat. At the same time, we have an aging lineup. Edited September 17, 2018 by Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also come on, Goodwin was everyone's punching bag here, now we think he's some kind of god? Also Watkins and Glenn were hurt all the time and Gilmore still hates tackling. Goodwin may have been different with this rocket armed qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say I like him. But he isn't nearly as bad as Miller and Groy from literally every last account of people who watch and grade every play. So, again, why do people single him out? Look, I follow football as closely as anyone on the planet that doesn't rewatch games and grade offensive linemen on every play. All I can tell you (without rewatching) is whether the line is good or bad. It's obviously bad. Occasionally when they show a replay, I will look to see where the pressure came from. But anyone who watches a game (and follows the ball every play like everyone else) and then tries to tell me who was worse than other guys on the line is a PHONY. Period.
