    Would not be surprised to see this

    I think the last time the boards were happy with a first round pick from us was 2011. Think most people liked the pick when it was made. Lots of people cooled on Jimmy of course as it took him a couple years to get going. I wasn't on here these days but I remember hearing that most fans liked him

    I don't remember Upshaw being too popular(not a first rounder but first pick so figured I would throw him on here)

    Elam was pretty hated

    Most people liked CJ but didn't like us going  ILB at all(thought Arthur Brown was gonna be the next big thing)

    Perriman was hated by almost everyone

    Think some people liked Stanley but a few people myself included were against getting him, lots of discussion on that reaction thread. We will see how he develops but pretty happy with how he finished the season and fine taking the L on that one.

    Upshaw was loved by virtually everyone but me. Even when around January he was touted as a top 10 pick I still said he would bust

    John Ross should have had 25+ touchdowns last year. 

    His qb Browning did him no service what so ever. He did make the 15-25 yard throws right on the money but underthrew him countless times on deep balls.....it is obsurd how bad it was at times. 

    Its not only that, hes missed his read a ton of times as well where Ross was wide open on seam routes and crossing routes. 

    Another note after watching the tape Ross seems to have very solid hands. Not too many drops what so ever and bailed out his qb a bunch as well. Hes a better blocker than one would think. Hes more than willing and sometimes thats all you can ask for 

    Without the injury history hed be the first wide receiver off the board I think

    Russell Street just did a 6 round mock draft that I absolutely loved because it seemed too good to be true. We land Davis, Tim Williams, Pal Elflein and JuJu Smith Schuster in the first 4 rounds. That would make me very happy but I don't think it is going to happen.

    It was one poster. Not the site

    PFF is doing a live mock right now, and Fournette fell to pick 40.  No, the 0 is not a typo.  40 as in 2nd round.

    Gordon mcguiness drafting for the ravens from pff. Noted raven fan. Traded back twice and picked up 2 extra thirds (I think we will trade back) and picked him tim williams.

    Wish he used those thirds to move up into another high second

    Superbowl throw on 1 leg but what about the Denver game. Dumervill had 1 good season.  Torrey has been released by the 49ers not because he's old but because he's not a #1. Like Chad Johnson would say....Child please!!!

    Are you seriously criticizing flacco for the td pass to Jones against Denver on 4th down, after have to step up into the pocket to avoid a sack from dummerville and the preceding to throw it 60 odd yards down the sideline (probably 80 when you take into account trajectory) that beat the 2 deep safeties?

    Ha

    Haha

    Per Zrebiec: Webb's new deal is 5.1m over 3 years, 1.2m signing bonus and up to 1.4m each year in incentives. Incentives include playing time with all tied to interceptions, fumble recoveries, punt return yards, etc.

    Sounds good! What was his base salary etc when we cut him?

    I'll tell you a little about trolls, though.  

    The P*triots hold the record for the most banned trolls.  They're pretty vicious and mostly have very nasty language.  They usually hit the blogs, so a lot of you probably never saw their "work".  They're definitely the most hated group by the mods.  They're pretty relentless.  They like to offer a lot of alternative facts, too, in their 3 page posts.  

    In second place we have the 49ers.  Their trolls were mostly whiney and gave us mods some good laughs on occasion.  They were large in numbers, not so much in creativity.  They also have better language.  They disappeared after a while.

    We've banned a few Steeler trolls, but not really very many.  They tend to be hit and run anyhow.  One non-troll fan got banned but he did something beyond extreme to earn that distinction.  

    Bengals and Browns fans seem to behave pretty decently, as do fans of most teams.  

    Frankly, we get trolled more by our own "fans".

    Jonab87 or something I think. Always posted in the movie thread

    After being so wrong about Aaron Donald not fitting here, I'll never say a supremely talented player doesn't fit.  We play the nickel so much nowadays that there will definitely be a large role for him.  I still believe he'll have a Michael Bennett like impact.

    Still can't believe we didn't make a move for him or obj. They were my 1 and 3 player that year.

    I'm going to go with some mid-late rounders (some early) I feel will be good NFL players.  Maybe not right off the bat, but with time, I believe in these guys:

    RB Kareem Hunt
    WR Taywan Taylor
    TE George Kittle
    G Danny Isidora
    DT Larry Ogunjobi
    LB Jayon Brown
    LB Ben Gedeon
    DE Derek Rivers
    CB Nate Hairston
    FS Tedric Thompson

    Kareem hunt my guy. Will be the best rb in the class

    What do you mean by make them happen?

    2 second round players. It would be an either or situation really. Baker would be one for the future whereas Williams would have an immediate impact
