For all the bad things that have happened

Do we forget so easily?

1.) We were 12-4 last season

2.) We have a franchise Left Tackle

3.) We have arguably the best Running Back and Wide Receiver in the league

4.) We have Jon Beason

5.) All of our awesome Rookies are a year more experienced (Otah, Stewart)

6.) Trgovac is gone!

7.) Hurney and Fox are some of the best drafters in the league

We have so many things to be happy about. :)

Don't forget Jerry's new heart. In all seriousness, I was worried about what could have happened if JR was to have not survived his recent medical scare.

I love where we are as a franchise and see a solid foundation that will lead to long term, sustainable success. Is everything perfect? Of course not, but we'll contend again in '09.

Don't let Sam Mills Fan in here then... :lol:

This whole thread is cracking me up. Sure, let's all just forget who our quarterback is and that we only have one great player on defense lol. If you do that and ignore our schedule for next season, then you *should* be really excited for next year!

I can counter everything negative you say with a positive.

Feel free to wallow in your negative filth tho.

I will stick to reality.

The "whoamg schedule is so hard wut r we goig 2 do" rhetoric is a joke. Didn't most everybody have San Diego and Green Bay penciled in as our toughest games last offseason? The NFL doesn't work that way. If it did, we've have two or three Lombardi trophies by now.

Actually, we have two elite caliber players on defense: Peppers and Beason. Everyone else is either average/above average (Lucas, Brayton, Lewis, Kemoeatu, Godfrey, Diggs) or very good (Davis, Gamble, Harris). You don't need Pro Bowlers at every position to field a good or even great defense.

1.) We were 12-4 last season Right on. It was a fun season up til that final game.

2.) We have a franchise Left Tackle Overpaid, but I'm glad he wants to be here. Unlike someone else.

3.) We have arguably the best Running Back and Wide Receiver in the league Got to love that.

4.) We have Jon Beason One of the best in the biz. Not looking forward to the day when he "talks contract".

5.) All of our awesome Rookies are a year more experienced (Otah, Stewart) Otah will hopefully play all 16 games, or that could be a sign of things to come. But he will be a beast. J-Stew goes over 1000.

6.) Trgovac is gone! So? Nobody knows the real reason our D sucked. Let's just hope Meeks will change the scheme up and Fox won't step in his way. At all.

7.) Hurney and Fox are some of the best drafters in the league. Every team can claim good draft picks I'm sure, but I can definitely thank them for eight without even thinking.

We have so many things to be happy about. :)True, but the past is the past. It will not make up for a crap year, if we have one.

And also, here's to another 8-0 home stand!

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
