  1. Let me get this straight we had an offensive unit that struggled mightily in 2016, couldn't get 1st downs, couldn't finish drives and constantly settled for 3, tired out our defense with their inability to sustain drives. That already poor unit then loses it's best playmaker in Steve Smith, our alpha dog. A pro bowl fullback, one of the best RT's in football in Wagner, as well as our starting Center. I'm not even mad about the draft, the offensive players who were worth the value of our pick never made it to us outside of maybe OJ Howard. The issue is FREE AGENCY! We knew this was a weak offensive draft, we knew the board was probably going to fall heavily on defense at our picks. Yet we ignore offense in free agency and sign 2 fat contracts on defense. That is the mis-step here, we should've spent on offense and drafted on defense. I love our defense, but this offense is garbage right now. OL is in shambles, WR core is one of the worst in the NFL... We have problems here guys. I don't see how you fix this unit to a reasonable degree without a significant trade.
  2. This is my favorite pick in relation to his value/round. Tim Williams is the pass rusher Correa was supposed to be, sudden and twitchy with actual pass rush moves. Between him and Bowser, one of these guys is going to be an absolute stud, potentially even both and that's really exciting. I just think Williams is ready to step in and make an impact right away and Bowser may need more time to tap into his potential. Teams went way overboard with the off-field concerns on Foster and Williams imo. I think both those guys go on to light it up and we look back and say "How did those guys get passed up so many times???"
  3. We just might have the best defense in the league and a bottom 5 offense. Dede Westbrook would be a great pick, I would trade up for him at this point, we stocked up so heavy on defense that we might as well get an offensive prospect who can actually ball even if it requires giving up our 5th or 6th round pick.
  4. This is why we should've gone offense in Free Agency. I said over and over "This is a defensive draft, build the defense there and build the offense in FA". Our defense is going to be nasty and the offense is going to be a dumpster fire. An already bad unit has lost Wagner and SSS, no help in the first 2 rounds or FA. Another painful year of anemic offense incoming.
  5. You realize that Mixon was verbally berating that girls friend who was gay which sparked the whole incident. She's a 115 lbs girl, give me a break. Mixon is a piece of garbage person, dude didn't even sound remorseful. Good player but such a cancerous person to have in your locker room.
  6. Mixon is a disgusting human being. WR's didn't make it to us, Cook didn't make it to us, OT's didn't make it to us. Only thing you could say is that we should've picked Howard but we are stacked at TE as it is, I think either Waller or Crockett breaks out this year,
  7. Bengals have such a scumbag team, everyone saw that coming
  8. People were generally unimpressed with CJ Mosley on draft night, some outright hated the pick. I never forget that when I see knee jerk reactions to draft picks on here. I think Humphrey is going to be a stud once he fills out a little more and matures. I actually think Humphrey is more pro ready than Jimmy was coming out but we won't really see the player he's going to be until year 2 and 3. This guy is an AFCN player, big and physical for his position. I love that he can be a factor in run support and hit. Maybe not the best pure cover corner, but much like Jimmy, if he can get a good jam on you and disrupt the timing of the route he can really cause problems for an offense. We have a very physical secondary and a bunch of corners that can put hands on you at the point of attack. My only gripe was positional value, there are going to be so many CB's available in round 2 (Wilson, King, Auwuzie, Tabor, Jones), Why not take Allen or Howard because you know another good CB is going to make it to us in the 2nd, the class is stacked with them. I just hope Humphrey separates himself from that pack and proves why he was taken where he was.
  9. I think Williams will be less AJ Green and more Kelvin Benjamin
  10. I have a sneaking suspicion this will happen as well. If he does we'll all know he's the pick before we even turn in the card, such a typical Ravens pick if he makes it to us.
  11. I feel like all of us with our fingers crossed for an exciting pick like Mike Williams or Corey Davis are going to be disappointed. I expect a good, but underwhelming pick like Cam Robinson or Forrest Lamp. I feel like we're looking at the Cowboys offense right now and trying to build a similar unit that can bully opposing defenses in the trenches. Also the Alabama boys Humphrey and Foster would be likely picks if either last that long. Last year we pretty much knew the few players who could possibly be the pick, this year it could be so many different players depending how the board falls, Thursday night is going to be very interesting.
  12. The problem with this team isn't that we don't have good depth and good contributors. We lack elite high end players. Especially at skill positions. I don't think this draft philosophy really fits what we need.
  13. There is no definitive reason to think that they will both be gone. Especially Conley. We all thought Kyle Arrington was going to perform for us like he did in NE, those veteran CB's play can fall off in a hurry and I'm not convinced Carr is going to be an exception. Hopefully he gives us a good return these next 2 years but drafting a CB is totally justifiable if it's the right player.
  14. Tavon and Webb really are nickel guys. Jimmy and Carr can play on the outside but Jimmy is injury prone and Brandon Carr is stop gap at 30+. Definitely can't complain about taking a corner high, especially in such a good corner class. Marlon Humphrey or Gareon Conley would be great picks.
  15. Cam Robinson or Taco Charlton, wouldn't surprise me at all either if we took Robinson.
