Pejorative Miscreant

Walker is my realistic pick at 8. Can’t get excited about anyone else. Would be disappointed if we ended up with the WR CB or TE and think the edges are a bit of a reach.

We drafted the “poor man’s” version (what some called it at the time) of Simmons in Chinn, who turned out to be the better player regardless of their draft position, but we never figured out how to use him properly. Now, the bust version of Chinn is available so maybe we should pick him up?

I agree but would add that I think it gives them flexibility in the draft. Even though they don’t have to they should grab one. Dawdle is a rental. But if the opportunity presents itself, they should grab an RB in the mid rounds. They just don’t have to reach for a guy out of need.

What’s Bersin up to these days?

Or 3 QBs and no tackles to protect them or receivers to throw to. Exaggerating for clarity sake.

Correct. Which is why I don’t take it literally when they say BPA. Please read the entire post.

It’s posts like this that make me wish we could give more than one pie or something Can’t be more spot on than this

I think it depends on how they quantify “BPA”. From a talent, playmaker, insert superlative standpoint I think you may be correct. If BPA grade takes into account need, positional value and other factors he will not likely be “BPA”. Not disagreeing with you but when they drop BPA I can’t take it literally. I thought about creating a topic on different factors that might go into BPA for these guys as I think it might spurn interesting conversation but never got around to it.

I seriously doubt it. The only close to good things I remember about him on this board was just after he was drafted most people were hoping he would develop which applies to all draft picks. It’s been all downhill since that point.

If everyone’s a reach then no one’s a reach. It’s all relative to this group of players.

I’d rather take the Johnson(CB), Warren (TE) or Starks(S) than Williams and I don’t like any of those guys at 8. I’m just tired of getting guys with a big “if” attached to the selection.

That’ll be in part deux.

The buffoonery of the Fletcher pick always makes me chuckle.

I am not challenging you on this, just seeking insight so my question is not meant to be disrespectful. That said, why would u plan to switch a defensive scheme next year (by next year I assume u mean 26/27 season). Especially when u are coming off a season with a historically bad defense. Might as well just switch now and deal with the fallout. It’s not like any of your current guys are that great with a 3-4. if the organizations strategy aligns closer to a 4-3 then switch now.

Well, I did it successfully on all 78 mock drafts in the simulator so Dan has no excuses.

I’ll pull for whoever they pick but it’s damn frustrating to constantly hope player x “breaks through” when he is an 1st or 2nd round pick.

Nice observation. Minus the Super Bowl we basically have the same owner. We drafted Bryce and he was terrible his first year (has gotten better please don’t skewer me). We made a an unreal trade (although we gave instead of got. We could have made another trade to get more for Burns but the idiots in charge failed to execute but lo, I digress) and our owner, who is also pretty dumb, has been cursed by himself. I think the big difference is JJ hired a good coach out of the gate instead of a car salesman which point the ship for a while. Thanks for the perspective and allowing my musings.

I think we saw enough evidence from Bryce to say that development is happening. Not sure of ceiling but time will tell. Legette showed he can play but needs work and refinement. I hope they both make jumps. I think many others such as Mingo fall into the category as not panning out and probably fall into the “turd” category.

Pied this post cause I think counting Ian Thomas and Inch Sanders as contributors is extremely generous and kind hearted of you.

I give Morgan some wiggle room probably more because I have fond memories of the player and it is jaded to some degree I like XL but he needs to catch balls. I think Morgan’s best gets last draft were signing Coker and then getting Jackson in the 7th rounder swap. Basically your 7th round pick and your UDFA performed at levels where you would expect your 1 and 2 round guys to perform. If you couple that with ur 1st rounder being meh and ur second rounder on sabbatical for the near future, it looks kinda iffy.

I’d call Matt Rhules wife and just ask her. It’s Miller Time!

Kick the tires, but how much is too much? Draft should be deep with DT which makes me hope we don’t overspend for a stop gap.

I’m all for taking BPA. A trade back to accumulate more picks would be great. I might not be in love with the BPA we pick, but this roster is at the point where you just gotta take the medicine and deal with the after taste.

The answer is already on the roster

I’m sold and would be satisfied if he ends up here. Seems to check all the boxes.
