It's almost certain to be in the top 5 picks. Those are the safe bets and how it will ultimately play out. This team has a long way to go to be a serious threat to anyone anytime soon.

So true. You cannot reason with them anyway so you just have to drive a stake through their heart and be done with it.

I'll take the over.

Theilen needs someone to rotate with in the slot and to mentor as his replacement. So I would not rule it out.

I thought it was DJ's? Or was it cocks?

I'd say it's a push given my options. There's no way of telling. Last season they thought they had an all-star staff. That was not true. This year it's "player upgrades". But having said that, it appears they have upgraded the oline and dline at a few spots. I love that mindset in team building but the results of player choices has yet to prove itself on the field. I'm also very doubtful of these new coaches. I'm hoping I am completely wrong about this staff but I do not think they will be able to pull this off. So, I will say they got better at having a good plan but that's all I can give you until the season is over.

Need a 3rd option. Unknown.

Say it with me...BPA. Tattoo it on your forehead as a reminder every time you look in the mirror.

You have to remember that everything cannot and will not be addressed this offseason. So don't panic when every hole is not plugged with instant upgrades. This is going to take awhile. It took them 6 years to make this mess, it's going to take more than one or two drafts to correct this even if they get 2 starters from each draft. What you see now as a team is a lot of bandaids and short term rentals.

I have to say that I agree with you. His first year I took a wait and see approach to his moves. After that first season I was very skeptical of him and when he turned down the Rams offer for Burns that's when I knew we were screwed. The trade up in the draft finished it off. I began to hate the guy and that was it for me.

You could say the exact same thing about Burns. With 1/3 the risk and money invested.

Got a better edge guy for 1/3 the cost. Who'd a thought that was possible. Yes I said better.

Take him in the 4th if he's there. No sooner because of injury history.

Might as well be, they were ass last season. Let's see if they can grow some balls too.

I remember. Best special teams player I think we've ever had.

Best wishes my friend. I'm getting up there myself and I haven't been to kind too this body. I'm starting to pay for it now. Get well soon sir.

We will find out in September.

The roster will not complete for a couple more offseason.

You should take your own advice.

No, it's being honest. The only coping is from those of you that want to blame all the ills of the team on one player when it was the entire team and staff that produced what you saw last season. Bryce was part of it but not all of it. That is all I have said. If that bothers you then it is you that is coping by not considering every single issue on this team. It's much easier to blame everything on one player.
