Graham is a bit bigger that the traditional NT Evero likes to use, but he might be a great fit for the traits Evero like at that position. I’m slight intrigued by the idea, and I think Graham might be there when we pick. Jalon Walker is probably my preferred choice, but if Graham is a fit at NT…

Good thing Giants didn’t pay Barkley so they could afford Burns lol

Daniels has been phenomenal. But for this game everything went perfect for the Commanders, 0 turnovers vs. 5 for the Lions as well as 1 special teams TD.

I’d take this in a heartbeat. Walker would be perfect for us.

I feel the same way

The problem I have with always drafting the high potential/boom or bust prospects is that you miss out on a lot of very good players. Ladd would have been the right choice, so would Frazier have been. That would have given us two very good starters for 10 years, exactly what we need. We are in no place to gamble, we need many solid contributors. Once we have that, then we can take chances.

Which teams currently run a 3-4 with an undersized NT and does it well?

I feel like his scheme works best vs. pass happy offenses, but we are back to heavy running and I just don’t see his scheme working as well going forward. Just look at the Broncos in the playoffs, they could do nothing against the run.

This is good news, we have a crazy amount of injuries every year.

How is his production? He looks like the perfect player but does he produce?

What gives me hesitation is that he’s a guy that has everything and should be dominant, but he’s not. You’d draft him because he could be great, for his upside. That rarely works out for us. Draft someone that is already really good. That’s why Hurney did well in the first round imo.

This is the reason to keep drafting o-line in round 3-5 every year, so you have depth and don’t have to overpay for that depth.

This is spot on, good analysis

It will be really interesting to see Arch next year, he must the most hyped player in a long time

There seem to be an unusual number of good 4-3 DEs in this draft. Not sure if Sawyer fits in a 3-4 or not. But I love him as a football player, he’s the type of player you want on your team.

Can someone explain the undersized NT thing to me, I don’t get how that works?

This is a really impressive one

That would be a great pick, he might be my favorite for us right now.

I’m underwhelmed, but I can see Canales reasoning. Also, would they find someone better or not? He just seem stuck in his ways and doesn’t seem to adjust. I also feel he doesn’t take advantage of a talent like Horn to allow him to travel with the best opposing WR etc. I also don’t like the smaller NT in his system. That all said, this is the year of a lot of coming upgrades on defense, so hopefully it will all work out. I’m thinking we might target Jalon Walker or Malaki Starks in the draft. Not sure where Graham would play in his defense considering we already have Brown and A’shawn as ends.

We’ve seen it before, Lamb was running wild, on the opposite side of Horn, and no changes were made. An offensive coordinator’s dream. I agree that Evero was dealt a rough hand, but I also haven’t seen him try to maximize the few good players he has. In addition, after a year like this, everyone needs a fresh start, it is the best for both parties, no hard feelings.

First of all, I hope you are doing ok, it might be good for you to step away a little bit. Again, it is common practice to try different approaches and measures the results. In this case he was benched with the hope it would help him to sit back and watch and learn from Andy. Then you can look at the results post that and measure results. This is a valid approach and not even up for discussion imo. Now, how you interpret the results is 100% up for discussion.

Not sure I see the issue with only looking at the numbers after he became the starter again after his benching. He sat, learned etc. and now we want to see if something changed. Hence we will measure the new period post benching. This is common practice and used all the time. I understand you are bitter, but good grief man.

I’d take Jalon Walker over Carter in a heartbeat at this point.
