Just saw this.

If they aren't enamored with anyone in the draft, I think this makes sense. I think they really would like to sign Marvin, Lin, and Lee. I think many are thinking we would be drafting a replacement to fill their role but the front office may not see the value at 22. 

Personally, I wanted Wade Baldwin as a replacement for Lin but he's shot up the boards recently. So I can see why they are considering this.

The Front office is full of idiots, I hope they give up their first rounder, Hawes or Lamb, and trade up for Thon.  Let him progress in the D-League a few years.

I'd rather them take Hawes, but I'm not sure who needs a pick and is willing to add empty salary.

Hawes only has a year left, he would be dead weight.  His contract is for sure the most likely to move.  Lamb on the other hand has at least 3 years left.

Not sure we'd be moving up in this situation

Sounds Cho loved Lamb and Clifford has different feelings about him. Hate to speculate but that situation does give legs to the rumor that Cho/Clifford seem to operate on different spectrums.

Lamb is still incredibly young, I don't understand this at all.  Lamb showed flashes last year.  Maybe his work ethic sucks or something.

Lamb just isn't good enough on defense for Clifford to play him, he makes way too many mistakes. He also throws some of the worst, laziest passes I've ever seen on the offensive end. I like Lamb, but I can see why he doesn't play from a coaching perspective.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      The reality though is that there just isn't a traditional #1 pick type of player in this draft to begin with. He might have been below Marvin last year, but I don't think he'd have been below Nabers. And if you think he disappears in some college games, then you're only looking at the box scores, I guarantee you not a single NFL GM will say he disappears in games when watching the tape. Arizona's offense is a MESS this year, the new coaching staff is beyond bad and the fanbase is screaming for them all to be fired, our OL is awful, our QB is playing like utter garbage, and we don't have another weapon to attract any defensive attention.  Teams are double and triple teaming him on almost every snap, and when combined with the OL and QB issues, it's just impossible to get him the ball sometimes.  And even when our QB forces the pass to him, half the time it's not even catchable given how poor he's been playing. And even despite all that, he's still 3rd in the nation in yards. I've also seen more WR rankings having Burden over Hunter than I have seen Hunter over T-Mac.  If we had a true outside #1 WR, then taking someone like Hunter (or Burden) instead of T-Mac would make more sense as if Hunter were to play WR in the NFL, he'd more likely be used a slot guy like Godwin or Kupp.   There's a reason most mocks/analysts who don't list Hunter as a CB/WR (or just Athlete) list him as a CB.  Because it's his better position and the side of the ball he's more likely to play in the NFL, partially due to his wire thin frame, I don't see him holding up long term as a WR.

      Chase Daniels breaks down Bryce vs DEN

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      This was a good breakdown from Daniels.  Last year has had a lasting impact on Young. He still isn't getting the time needed from the OL - the OL we have is made to establish the run and for the run to be in play.  We get behind and have to throw all game we are doomed with this O-line. His receivers have to catch the ball when he makes a good throw to them, he can't have them dropping his good passes. Why are we running 4 slants all toward the same direction?  Why a triple option on 4th and 1? That's on the coaches. Bryce gets hurried and starts slinging the ball where it shouldn't be thrown, more study and recognition from him are needed.  Bryce doesn't step up in the pocket and throws too soon and unbalanced.  He over and under throws the ball because of it.  That's on him.  If the pocket isn't there and he can't get his base set he needs to check down or "live to fight another day." He has been thrown to the wolves and has lost his confidence.  This team doesn't have much, if any, talent and it's a cluster.  I think he can still be an NFL QB.  Maybe not a QB1 in the short term, but if he has a chance with better coaching and personnel he may be better than we are giving him credit for. I think we ruined him last year and have not fixed anything to help him this year.  If we can't run or get way behind all NFL defenses are coming after him.  Dalton has more respect and defenses didn't always sell out to get to him because he'd hit a quick slant, screen, or check down because he has the experience to know what's coming and what to do. Just my 2 cents.

      Anthony Richardson benched

      By Ghostofdelhomme · Posted

      All depends on who the backup is. Josh Allen probably would have been benched too if there were better backups than Matt Barkley and Nate peterman.
