  1. This is where teams fall into cap hell. You have to have a budget for each position. Sure, if you look ONLY at RT and say, "We gotta pay him!!" then later, when you have no money to pay your QB, or a DE, or a CB---you lose that player. Keep him for a year if he still wants elite LT money. Groom Christensen. Understand, I love Moton--and I get the points the opposite side of the argument is making---I just think when you overpay at any position, you lose in the long run.
  2. Bengals are toying with some white helmet ideas---
  3. Did you know that this kid could not play banjo, they had a person behind him reaching around him playing it. He also appears on a porch in the movie "Big Fish" as an older man (31 years later)
  4. I would love the draft. I would spend 3 days there, and I would act stupid.
  5. The combine is in February. Are we talking inside our practice bubble?
  6. YGM might be the most forgotten player on this roster. DEs take time--Johnson and Rucker and Hardy-all except for Peppers were invisible in the first year or two.
  7. I think we "found" him when Norv Turner was at the MD pro day to watch DJ Moore. He was good at MD, and some thought he was their best Defensive player. He is entering his prime, so if you are going to make a move in the NFL, it should happen by year 3 (and he made a move) or a great year 4 is unlikely, and they all know year 4 means second contract
  8. There is a difference between this and Eric Reid. Reid, even though I believed in his cause, could not get me to believe in him because he attacked others for not standing with him--even when it was on the field. A locker room cancer. I support your right to disagree with me, even if you are wrong. I am not entitled to forcibly use physical aggression to make you conform, which is, essentially, what Reid tried to do here. (Fighting before a game, cheap shots on field). That is exactly the kind of behavior he is opposing, but on a smaller scale. Chuba does not seem to fit that profile.
  9. we need to go with pinstripes like the Irish did. Heard it here first. On second thought, I got this from someone else.
  10. best throwback helmet: What were the Pats thinking?
  11. couldn't find an open blocking dummy
  12. Most people undervalued the significance of having Jordan Gross and Ryan Kalil at the two most important OL positions.
  13. Brown is not a great fit here. We shall see, but his brand of RG is starting to become a bit obsolete, with the zone blocking schemes. Maybe a goalline and special teams G, but I am not seeing the fit in the offense. Of course, I hope that I am wrong. It reminds me of the Duke Robinson pick, and that is not fair to Brown.
  14. About OT--Daley was not bad when he played. I know, injury history, but sometimes, it is just bad luck. I think he will win the LT job, but we have 3 who could reach the average level (Daley, Scott, Erving). I am not giving up on Christensen either, but I found Rhule's comments about him at RT to be disturbing. Was that for Moton negotiations or was he a depth pick? At 25, he needs to start now-can he beat out what we have at G now? Not seeing the spot for him at this time.
  15. I agree about Marshall--I am fairly sure we were going OT and this guy with a late first round grade is sitting there. BPA. It seems there is some reason (every year) we just do not prioritize the OT position. That is not to say picking Marshall was the wrong thing to do- Maybe Darnold will be faster at reading the defense and getting rid of the ball.
  16. My theory--- We want more :"Go" routes and QBs throw more than they did 15 years ago. I wonder how many WRs lose a step or two in the fourth quarter? we rotate DTs, and they don't run much. We rotate DEs--keeping them fresh. Why is there not more of a rotation for WRs? You keep them fresh and give the DBs a different look. I know there are some WR rotations, but normally, when we go to 4 WR sets. What if, for example, Marshall rotated with Anderson and Moore. The other Moore and Shi worked the slot. I mean, why would this be bad? Is it timing? Chemistry? If so, is that more important that fresh legs? Maybe I am wrong because they don't do this as much as one might think. But in a game, the WR might run the equivalent of 20-40 yard dashes in full gear, fighting DBs, etc. Is that 20th route as crisp as the first? Maybe that is because it is tough to keep more than 3 quality WRs on the roster---I dunno.
  17. I am not convinced that the #3 has to be 1 person.
  18. The one on the right is the 3 technique. Her name is probably Edna.
  19. Seriously, who cares? App State (about 25 years ago) had a male flag girl. You don't hear me talking about it.Much.
  20. And there are rumors putting him at nickel-they tackle once in a while, and my impression of Jackson is "that ain't his bag."
  21. That is a good trade, if you ask me. I would give them Erving for him, if they need a 6th man.
  22. You never forget your first, according to my therapist.
  23. What the hell is up with the Tom Cats? (Wrong thread, but damn). Igo will be taking pics of them in the rain and stuff. Brace yourselves!!
  24. Gotta admit, that first dude made me gasp. Was not expecting that.
