As a Miami fan… idk that I’m in on Mesidor this high. I view him as more of an end in a traditional 4 man front. He did play standing up a lot at Miami. But he leaves a little to be desired imo.

Making blanket statements about trading up or down are kinda meaningless in a vacuum. Sonny Styles is a great prospect. IMO he probably goes top 5. We’d have to give up basically a whole draft worth of pics to get there for a line backer on a team that lacks talent and I wouldn’t love that. I doubt he falls past 7. But in the chance he does. I’d absolutely be thrilled to trade up for him. It just depends on the price But tbh. I like CJ Allen. I think a guy like that could upgrade our LB room and defense overall. And I think someone falls. maybe it’s Sadiq as weapon of a TE. Maybe it’s one of the top 3 WRs. Maybe Delane or McCoy fall There’s going to be good football players where we’re at imo

Bain/Brown would be tough. Rotating in the other guys as well

Don’t think Bain is there at 11. But he’s arguably a top 5 prospect.

I mean I said I expected this a few weeks ago. Oh well. We draft Arvell Reese and pair him with Brown create a top tier D

I mean yeah because there’s upside. By year 3 we realize BY has limited upside. I felt like the point was pretty straightforward. If the expectation is for Canales or Morgan to win next year with their job on the line. I think it’s hard to target quarterbacks in the draft. Because very few rookies are good football players right away. It’s a position that needs some patience. If we’re going to look at QB, which I think we might be in a position to draft, I think we need be willing to have some patience that we’re probably going to not be very good that first year.

My only question is going forward with QB. We have a shot at Ty Simpson, Moore, Sellers or whoever. As a franchise… and a fanbase are we ready to accept that our QB probably will struggle again next year. Cause Ward and Dart have been bad as rookies. The year before Daniel’s played great… but Williams, Maye struggled as rookies and we haven’t seen enough of Penix or JJ to really judge. I do think it’s an awkward spot to put your GM/HC on a make it or break it year and then expect them to roll out with a rookie QB

Canales may or may not be the answer. I don’t think last year stuck with Young and an all time bad defense in terms of talent are enough to judge him. Even this year I felt like with Young as our QB and lack of talent I wasn’t sure what people expect. This could change a bit tho. Brown is obviously a beast. A’Shawn played well too. And if Scourton can provide a consistent pass rush I feel like our defense becomes a lot more formidable I’ll reserve judgement til after the season on him

I echoed most of what you said earlier this week. The only thing I will say in defense of Morgan… he seems to have nailed this draft. Tet and Scourton I think are legit. Ransom could be a real piece too.

We’ve consistently had one of the least talented rosters for a few years now. You would think having a lack of quality starters in our roster would lead to cap room and the ability to sign some at some point. Especially with a QB on a rookie contract. But outside of improving our OLine, we lack starters all over. Just a complete failure in free agency. I like what little I’ve seen of Dante Moore. If we move on from Evero Rueben Bain has dominated these first 4 games. Could do worse than him and Brown leading our DLine with Scourton/Princely as pass rushers

This is not a good team. Idk what people expect. I’m on the fence whether Canales is a competent coach but I’m certain firing Canales won’t fix it this year

Nobody is ignoring it. It’s just we’ve invested all our resources into drafting Young, finding him weapons, and signing offensive linemen. We’ve had one of the least talented defenses in the league and an offense who keeps giving the ball away or going 3 and out. Whether Evero is a good coach or not…. He’s certainly more capable than what he’s shown here.

Yeah… the top of the QB draft class isn’t looking great. Seems Sellers is at the top of most boards. But he’s completed 11 and 12 passes on his first two games. Idk if he is an nfl level passer. Maybe Nuss cuts back on some of the silly plays this year. It’s still early, Beck is off to a good start in Miami. Maybe Dante Moore at Oregon shows QB1 talent. So guys could emerge. But I also wouldn’t be mad if we ended up with an Anthony Hill, Bain/Faulk, or a Caleb Downs type on defense.

At least Jamarcus has the excuse of being high out his mind for his bad play

True. Look at the Colts. Brought Jones into compete with AR, Jones won the job and led them to an impressive win today.
