And its all about trends. This year was the year of the RB. So teams the beefed up the lines were having success. Previously is was all about speed speed speed. LB's used to be the most important position in football and now they are almost an after thought. I still remember the year of Double Trouble. The league was obsessed with 3-4 fast LB's and fast DT's. We loaded up on big OL guys, FB's and we pounded the rock. This was the one year that I felt like we were in front of the curve.

Ha we were on the same wave length.

Thats true but I think its easier to find LB's in a 3-4 than it is to find DE's in a 4-3..

I dont think this is news. The team obviously didnt forget to book an appointment.

BY just looks way more mature than AR15 at that age.

Offseason watch for those that have not seen it.

im into it

Im fine with BY being boring for interviews. I did always think Cam handing the ball off to kids was cool.

I thin kjust getting Brown back will improve the run defense by 10 spots. Overall... I dont care so much about have a top ranked run D. As long as we are average thats good enough. You cannot have everything.. I would rather put effort in rushing the passer and pass defense then run D.

The big take away I got from Dave's post game interview was how he was saying the playbook is now wide open. We all know this but... Sounds like early in the year Dave was very cautious about what he called as he was not confident in BY and what he could execute. Now Dave has that confidence. Im excited to see what he does next year.

Im ok with this. They literally stripped the cupboard bare and then our best players on the defense got hurt early. Last year it was his defense that was keeping us in games despite the offense. I think we need to give him another run at this.

I hate government money being spend on stadiums..

Also considering how the national media doesnt care about our team, its really impressive.

I'm of the mindset that you don't screw up winning games. Also if we had the #1 pick I would be a big proponent of trading down. This draft feels more like quantity than quality.

I am 100% ok with a trade back this year

Big fan of this. I like a late round RB option.

In the finals with him on my fantasy team...

yeah its funny... cause we could end up with like the 15th pick.. or #1. Its wild.. there are so many bad teams.

You have been banging the drum all season for Hunter.. do you see him as the best player to improve this team for next year?

And based on the analysis I would agree with that.. I just think that is too rich of a thing to draft for this team.. we need to ether draft the best player at a specific position.. or trade down.

I dont watch college football at all but I get into the draft reading all the scouting reports... I dont feel comfortable with Hunter.. 1. I feel like its a luxury pick. 2. We have tried and failed with gimmicky players before. Im not saying they dont work but taking that type of player as high as he is supposed to go seems too rich for this team. Honestly I think we should trade down, get a #1 pick next year. We have so many needs on defense we need a lot of bodies there. Trade down, set us up for next year and get bodies to compete.

Weird previous post but a good OP to continue... XL: Man this guy has promise. Right now he reminds me of Kelvin Benjamin... big, strong (XL is faster) but the traits to be a good WR.. he just needs to put it together. Im keeping hope that he does. He doesnt seem to be lazy... just needs to be coached up. Brooks: Man this breaks my heart.. I was excited to see him enter the lineup. Our team is built to be a power running team and he would be a great addition.. but right now the future is in question. Wallace: .... probably one of the players Im most excited about. I know that people didnt like the pick but I thought if anyone could pick a LB it would be Morgan.. I think Wallace will be a foundation of the team soon. JT Sanders: Hes exciting.. would like to see him more.

Its funny... a lot of people on the board celebrate the loss, cause they want a better draft pick, but then crap on the Brooks pick because he got injured.. Like you would think that those same people would be happy that he's heading to IR as it reduces the chance of us winning games while brining a talented player back next year..

Easy to call it a bad pick now... We didn't think Chuba would be this good..

yeah... I was frustrated with Cam cause it seemed like early years he didnt really improve his throwing. The year he got hurt was the best I had seen him throwing.. till he didnt.
