blitzboy54 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Miami cleaned up. What a deal for them. If Tua ends up being any good the Dolphins are going to be dangerous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victory Formation Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I think Trevor Lawrence and Trey Lance will be the best of the bunch.. Wilson and Fields not so much. I think Lance has great potential if he can sit for a year or two. Reminds me quite a bit of Ryan Tannehill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Success Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Not a fan of this. NE will probably get Jimmy G. from San Fran for a 7th rounder or something like that (teams just seem to do that w/ NE). Jimmy has had bad injury luck and a spotty career so far, but he is a huge upgrade over Cam, imo. I was hoping the Pats were all in on drafting a QB, who would take a few years to develop and be a crapshoot anyway. Jimmy, with their other acquisitions, would immediately make them a contender in the division. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Tua ends up being any good the Dolphins are going to be dangerous How did they "clean up"? They got a third round pick next year and a first round pick in 2023, which is worth less than a second round pick this year, to move from 3 to 6. The Jets traded three second round picks, including two in that year's draft, to move from 6 to 3 in 2018.

If someone comes knocking with a 3rd round draft pick, though? The 49ers would be wise to start to recoup some of the draft capital they just gave up in this trade, and getting a decent pick back for a guy that's not in their long term plans is smart business. Can't disagree with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 (edited) 14 minutes ago, Miyagi-Do Karate said: you know the team better than me. But Terrell Pryor was arguably the most hyped future NFL superstar recruit out of High School in my lifetime. He had some great passing seasons at Ohio State too under Tressell. And even guys like JT Barrett had 3,000 yard passing seasons. I do think back when those earlier dual threat players were coming out (Smith and Pryor), the NFL was much different. If Pryor came out today, you wonder if he would have been developed into a very good/great NFL QB. Neither were considered nfl type QBs. Pryor was a complete idiot, he could never have played that position successfully. Barrett was very limited and didn’t have elite traits outside of his leadership.

DolFAN93 Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 13 minutes ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: It's not a terrible deal for Miami. My concern for them was their o-line though. I was thinking just stay at #3 and pick up the top rated LT. And if they want to deal back into the top 12 of the draft use their 2nd first round pick they had to do so. Some analysts have the OTs from VT and Northwestern higher than Sewell. The other thing that people forget is that they just spent a 1st last year on a LT. He didn't light the world on fire, injuries and extremely raw, but resources have already been used. Mind you three of Miami's starting OL were rookies last year.

Ethan in Cleveland Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Miami has enough draft picks to really cause a problem even after giving one away to move up a few spots. I don't think Tua is the answer but they could draft a ton of talent and then get a veteran QB like Ryan and be an instant contender. Or package those picks for Wilson.

You had the Bruins staying on top a few months ago, and the Celtics being a top contender. Makes your 10-6 to 12-4 prediction for the Pats kind of moot. What have the Pats really done? They were the classic "win the offseason" team. Without doubt, they significantly improved the TE position. The rest was a lot of spending for minor to average upgrades. And they had a bad team last year - not even average. If they get Jimmy, they could make some noise, but 12-4 would be a shock. 10-6 is still a stretch. They're very likely headed for a 3rd place finish, imo. Their FA was blustery & a lot of arm-waving, but doesn't amount to much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WR are a wash and they have the better TE, but the Pats have the better duo of TE (if that makes sense). Jimmy G only flaw is he is brittle as anything.

The first part of that response reminds me of how Bills fans talked for half of the drought years, especially when we spent more than usual on FA's. Their O-line stood pat - they also lost Thuney and Cannon. We'll see if Brown can stay in shape. It's still their best unit though, as it was last year. The LB they got is okay, and Hightower is on the wrong side of 30, after missing a whole season. The WR corps is improved, but still just middlin' at best. Again - they remind me of the drought-era Bills. A bunch of #2 and #3 guys (being generous there). And, like the drought-era Bills, the biggest question mark is QB. Color me not scared at all if they trade up for one of the QB's in the draft. They won't compete right away with any of them, and BB will probably retire by the time one develops into a decent starting QB - if they ever do. It's like watching a mirror of what Buffalo went through the last 20 years. Always trying to talk ourselves into believing we could be better than we ended up being. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
