  1. Oh ok, I misunderstood what you meant, my mistake. Yeah hopefully we can snag them in the 3rd-4th round because we all know how Ozzie hates trading up to get quality players.
  2. We don't really need Cam Robinson because we have Stanley. If we were to draft a center I like Pocic out of LSU
  3. If we pass on Tim William it better because we decided there was another play rated higher on the draft board. If we pass on him because of "character concerns" then we deserve to have a soft defense.
  4. I really hope we can land either Tim Williams or Eddie Jackson from 'Bama. Both players would fill needs, and possibly be day one starters.
  5. Agreed, why didn't Keenan Reynolds get on the field and show what he can do?
  6. How is it that Cleveland is playing hard even though they have nothing to play for, while we should have played hard for SSS yet we played like garbage?
  7. I don't think there was any good today outside of the plays made by Perriman to catch the ball and run to the 1, followed up by Dixon's touchdown.
  8. Why would he come back to this mess?
  9. What happened to the players and coaches saying they are going to play hard in this game? I thought this is a "character test".
  10. At the current rate we're going, it'll probably be another 2-3 years before we are serious contenders.
  11. Sadly Baltimore will win this game like 34-13 and while it'll give another total win to his coaching record, it'll hurt the team long term because of the loss of good draft position.
  12. I hate to say it, but the Pittsburgh deserves the praise they are getting. The NFL is just congratulating them on their playoff berth.
  13. First off I'd like to say thank you for your service. While Flacco did suck this game, half of the time he had defenders closing in on him so that could have effected his throwing. Dumervil has probably played his last down for the Ravens, and even if we had Smith, I'm not sure if he would have helped that much because of the lack of pass rush. After the NE game, I think our defense started to question itself after allowing Blount to run over them. I agree we need depth more than anything right now, and theres another topic around here where I questioned our pick of KC over Noah Spence and Myles Jack. Lastly for as bad as we were today at least we're not Denver.
  14. " All of whom would be on the ultra good side of character." I'm getting tired of getting "good character" guys. Look at how far bad character players like pollard and Ed Reed did back in 2012 for us. Just imagine how beastly our defense would be if we took a late round pick on Burfict. Sure you can't take dumb players like Pacman Jones, but still its upsetting for me at least to see us lose our mean streak that we once had
  15. Actually there were reports that Baltimore was going to take Dez but Dallas jumped one spot in front of us. Sammy went #4 and OBJ went 13th. Unless we traded up there is no way they were going to come to us. Luckily for us this draft has good receivers in it.
  16. No clue. Every elite QB has at least 1 great receiver. Brady has edelman, Rodgers has Jordy, heck even Winston has Mike Evans.
  17. He's lost his speed to play every play, but he's still good enough to be a 3rd down pass rusher. I do agree that we have young players in key positions, but after losing games like today and against the jets, something has to change. Yeah it sucks the SSR has his HOF career end like this.
  18. I forgot that point. We should try to get Adoree Jackson with our 2nd pick
  19. Agreed, how is it that Pittsburgh has found many small receivers like Brown, Eli Rogers, and that new guy Ayers(?) while we struggle with Chris Moore type of players. No disrespect to Moore, but he's not as good as those others yet
  20. You can't say having a "drill sergeant" type of coach works for every team. Mike Zimmer is one of these coaches and look at the Vikings and their current mess regarding reports of locker room dysfunction and how the players have completely tuned out Zimmer.

  21. Either way top 50 picks are supposed to help your team immediately, not play 5-10 snaps on special teams every game. Remember back in July when there were articles published about how much of a "tasmanian devil" he was during team scrimmages? What happened to that?
  22. Kind of unrelated but you can apply this to the Vikings situation as well.
  23. Maybe having a solid backup MLB who can rush the passer as well as drop into coverage, instead of one who struggles to make the field.
  24. I agree with you to an extant, but after blowing a playoff spot we might as well start preparing for next year.
  25. Its hard not to. Look at all those people drafted after us who are making impacts for their respective teams. To name a few, "Micheal Thomas, Su'a Cravens, Mackenzie Alexander..." and the list goes on who would be great on our team.
