  1. That's sort of been the story of us recently. Shooting for the moon and falling into the ocean instead. The trade up was just stupid. But, we will see if the player is worthwhile.
  2. Yeah, those are always case by case. Without really being privvy to the bulk of the details, it's hard to make a judgement. We get little bits, the scouts and FO's get a fair amount more If they deem the risk worthwhile, so be it.
  3. Eh....that can happen but also bring in a professional situation can help. College football is a pretty bad about developing players in terms of football or maturing them as adults.
  4. I think his peak is an elite game manager. He just isn't ever going to be a guy that blows the doors off. We will see. Hope I am incorrect.
  5. I think the truth is that most young QB's struggle in tough situations like Bryce was in. Only the truly elite don't. Which, I think we can all probably agree Bryce is not going to ever be a super elite guy.
  6. Super smart and super pretty. Basically the perfect sports TV personality
  7. The first two rounds are typically starter level players. After that it's mainly rotational or depth guys. Which, we need a ton of depth, as well.
  8. Historically, spending wildly in free agency has a very rough track record.
  9. Need this one. HATE Boston and their fuging fans.
  10. Building the way KC built would be music to my ears even without a Pat Mahomes at the end of that tunnel.
  11. IMO, most likely not. We will see what we are able to do but I don't see a winning season for a while.
  12. We have too bad of a roster to get it all in one offseason. It will be 2-4 more offseasons of building at a high success rate to get to being a "good" roster.
  13. But if you said that under Fitterer, your prediction success rate would have been insanely high.
  14. Same. He was not very polished his first two years. Very glad to have eaten my words and watched him become an All Pro caliber player.
  15. The fact that we richly reward a guy like DB while jettisoning Burns is a very good sign. We are prioritizing guys who actually love football.
  16. Trading down to the extent we did very, very rarely works out well. It's born of the notion that you are just smarter and better than anyone else in the league. That was very obviously not the case. Peak hubris from Rhule/Fitterer.
  17. Came here to say this. Love the player but not in the 2nd and definitely not in the position we are in as a franchise. I can justify it in the late second or early third as a BPA pick. All that said, if he stays healthy, it might be one of those "Look at all the teams that passed on this guy!" kind of picks. Trey Smith still haunts me.
  18. I want to make a Bryce joke at the "baby hook" but I won't.
  19. Absolutely none. It was one of the most arrogant and stupid things I have ever seen done in a draft.
  20. I was so furious at that draft at the time. I was definitely one of the few that didn't "get" the quantity versus quality strategy. It was so fuging insane.
  21. IMO, trading down should be reserved for not having strong feelings for the guys available at your pick.
