We can beat up on bad teams with good defense, but who cares? Beating bad teams just helps those bad teams draft ahead of us. It helps them! Our team is TRASH! Draft the o-line, QB, and weapons now. Yes more weapons. More. Our TEs are poop.

Think in terms of what we need to have a winner long term.

Rhule wanted to gut the roster to rebuild it, but he knew if he gutted the already bad defense we'd go 0-16. So he poured defensive picks into the defense and he got the couple of wins everyone was expecting.

If you look at the weapons the Bucs and Saints have, and their o-lines as well, then you can see how to build a modern football team. Either one of those teams have what it takes to win the SB, but Brees is a little too old, and they ran into each other in the playoffs. Those are smartly built teams with a focus on QB, o-line, and weapons first and foremost, and you see the results. Same thing with KC. It's not rocket science. Are we going to be a Ron 2.0 team with a ton of expensive defensive players having the ball tossed over their heads for TDs? I hope not!

The Saints and Bucs are the class of the NFCS, and we're not going to out compete them by collect top LBs. If Rule isn't thinking "QB, weapons, o-line" then we're in deep trouble. If he starts spending picks on the defense yet again then we're going to get yeeted. If our identity is our defense then we know we're ever winning a SB. Not happening.

Our blueprint for building this team should be young LBs acquired later in the draft. If one of them starts to break down physically, then just dump him and pick up another one later in the draft. Shaq is massively talented, but all you hear on gameday is fans ripping him a new one. That's because LBs are no longer that effective against good modern defenses. Just like Luke (epic talent) looked like complete trash against teams like the Saints. He got roasted. We have to have a smart blueprint to rebuild this team. Build up a dominant passing attack. Period. No 1st round LBs.

If the bpa at 8 is a Lb then you look for a trade partner. We already have an expensive 1st pick LB with great athleticism. You don't win today collecting top quality LBs. They don't effect the game enough to matter, the ball is tossed over their head down field, and to make matters worse Parsons is not good at defending the pass, so we'd get wrecked. No more bad decisions. We need to build up our passing attack in the draft until we are a dominant passing team. A LB can be added later in the draft if needed (P.S not needed).

Prime Brady. The ball didn't touch the ground.

The most likely pick at 8th is Trey Lance imo. When a team knows it doesn't have its franchise QB the top priority is obtaining one when possible, and we're in position to possibly do so now. Wilson is going to come off the board too quickly for us to have a chance, and the trading up thing is wishful thinking. The reality is that we have a good chance at drafting Lance at 8th, and he's a better physical specimen than Wilson anyway imo. These other positions like LB, TE, ect, can be obtained in the 2nd or later rounds. Lesser important positions should not be filled with 1st round draft picks if you want to win.

The greatest threat to human existence is not nuclear war, but rather a lethal viral outbreak that will likely pop up out of dumb f@ck China if we let them carry on with the current government.

Sadly this isn't the first viral outbreak, and they go back to status quo each time. They will kill us all with a mega virus eventually if we don't stop them.

We already have laws in place to prevent Trump, or any one individual, from turning this nation into the complete dumpster fire that is China.

China is essentially a complete and total disaster, but they do manage to survive by stealing all copy written technology they can find from the West, and by collecting money from international manufacturing investors. Had enough of China.

Yeah when one nation threatens the entire world with their incompetence the rest of the world has to step in and take over the decision making. We decide (the Western world), the obey, or they get sanctioned.

China allows every kind of animal you can imagine to be packed in to small spaces, stacked on top of one another so they crap on the lower animals, including bats which are virus incubating machines, and then the virus jumps to humans. Now we have to worry about permanent lung, heart, and nervous system damage, sudden death, and the world economy is wrecked. Unacceptable. The Chinese government should be overthrown immediately by it's own people, and new Western minded intelligent leaders should be appointed.

China has leadership so terrible that it rivals Middle Eastern leaders, and that's saying something.

Once this is over with China must ban their live animal markets permanently regardless of if they want to do it or not. Apply international sanctions if they refuse. And no more eating bats ffs.

The Chinese scientists think warmer weather slows transmission, Harvard disagrees, and neither have had their work peer reviewed. The fact is that the virus is spreading like wildfire on a global scale, so don't count on the summer to save us.

Similar crap has been done with water bottles during natural disasters.

Basically a lot of elderly people will be dying at home unless we have a vaccine soon. Some experts have guessed that it will take at least a year and a half before a vaccine will be available. Not good.

And 22.5 million needing to be hospitalized on the high end, although that will be spread out over time, not all at once of course.

"Dr. Brian Monahan, the attending physician of Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court, said he expects 70 million to 150 million people in the U.S. will become infected with COVID-19, NBC News reported Wednesday." If that plays out a lot of elderly people are going to die by drowning from the fluid in their lungs. Horrific.

I'm seeing OT Jason Spriggs in several mocks for us. Seems everyone noticed Remmers pooped the bed in the SB.
