With him and Horn matched up on guys it would be a wet dream. Lock down island. Next years draft I would not be surprised at all if we don't draft S and LB. That's about all that defense needs. 

That would be my point to check out on the staff and FO if they take two picks on defense in a draft where we only have a 1st, 4th, two 5th's and a 6th given our needs on the OL.

We have a top 10 defense and a bottom 5 offense.

Would be completely idiotic to take those picks with said 1, 4, or 5ths when they should go towards the OL. Sure get a S/LB in the 7th lol as if that would matter. Better off in FA for those and even if we bring in FA OL we still need youth there from the draft. 

I'm not kidding if they went defense with our first couple of picks in the already limited draft then I don't wanna hear anything at all about anything on offense Darnold, OL, or Brady. It'd be up to the defense 100%. Don't think it's happening though there is no way they look at this OL and thing "yea S or LB in the early rounds".

I haven't dove too deep into our cap in a hot minute, but are we able to sign all four -

Gilmore

Jackson

Moore

Reddick

With Taylor coming along the way he has, I think one of Henderson/Jackson/Gilmore gets moved or straight away isn't here next year. 

Boyue looks like the guy I would earmark for moving to S longterm. He has the mindset and vet knowledge to diagnose plays, while not being out of position. Not saying it's a perfect fit, but at 30 years old, he would make the most sense for me. DJax is too small and Henderson is too young with untapped upside to waste a couple of years trying to convert him.

Probably not but we don't need to. The only must haves there are Moore and Reddick.

Did you sleep through last year's draft? Do you really think we will end up with only 4 picks?

Sure does feel like Fitts is kinda trying to recreate the Seahawks. They found a stud QB with a 3rd round pick (best of luck replicating that). OL? Meh, no need to invest there. Secondary? Yes, please!

It's just crazy that we've never had a braintrust here that gave a single fug about heavily investing in the OL.

TBD. We've had rookies in the past who underperformed but developed into good pros and other rookies who played really well only to fall off the map afterwards.

In the past we had a GM we only wanted. Unless you think Hurney was actually good at the draft?

    • I want to throw in how much easier it is for a QB to develop and improve with a good oline.  Huge credit to the front office for spending the money on our two guards.  Cade Mays also had a 2nd really good game starting at center.  Love how he has developed and hope he's the real deal. Look at what Stroud is dealing with now in Houston after injuries and problems with their oline.  Strouds accuracy has been greatly affected as it seems like he doesn't trust his protection. Canales is doing a great job developing Bryce.  I think the QB whisperer might be for real. And obviously big props to Bryce.  First round pick that looks horrible in his first year.  Different coaches and systems.  Fans and media are calling him the biggest bust in NFL history and he looked like it in the first two games this year.  Gets benched.  Young man keep his cool and just continued to work and only worry about what he can control.  I hope things continue like this and we end up with a great success story. Bryce Young kept pounding.
    • Outside of Philly (who currently is #3 in pass defense) the rest of our remaining opponents are bottom 1/3 of the League in that regard.  Let's see what Bryce can do versus bad pass Ds.
