Will DeAndre Hopkins be available this offseason?
NoSaint replied to NeverOutNick's topic in The Stadium Wall
The MLB drop off is substantial VM acl is a massive hit. Just huge. poyer and Hyde a year older morse on shakier footing I’ll say I was much higher on tre coming back elite this time last year. And inevitably on April it’s easy to celebrate sherfield rapp and Harty. We did it with crowder, saffold and oj Howard. it’s real easy to be in the honeymoon phase now, and forget that you had the honeymoon phase with all your exes also -
Some insight on Bills first round and how it went down
NoSaint replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
a dynamic WR is a more valuable player but it seems they had a practical plan, with solid baked in contingencies I agree with their seeming rank of: get the best wr secure the last guy worth the round move back reasonably -

you should probably compare it to last April with a healthy Hyde, and healthy Miller and healthy DTs then, unless you want to project our injuries this year to be comparable to who was active in December/January. To compare last years worst version with this years best version is disingenuous -
Analyzing 10 years of first round TE production
NoSaint replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
plenty of those guys are pass catchers. If there are about 4500 yards and 35 or so TDs to go around I think he’s 4-500 and 5 of those. Knox similar. Davis close to 1k, diggs closer to 14-1500, and the remainder of the depth guys and backs for 1000 -
Come day 3 I’m totally ok swinging for the fences on talent. If they don’t make it, so be it.

just a bummer to be on the back side of that window now and never taken the swing for the fences. probably still get one at some point just playing the odds but it’ll be harder. you don’t think there will be any injuries this year, eh? -
Are players ever fully off a teams draft board?
NoSaint replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
depends on the issue and their skill guys can absolutely come off though depends on the issue and their skill guys can absolutely come off though that tackle with the ***** issue a few years back comes to mind as a prospect that became fully untouchable for 32 teams. But surely it happens for subsets on different less extreme issues -

real talk, not as enthused as I could be. I’ve been amongst the louder add a pass catcher or pass rusher voices in the off-season (or mid season) since year two of the Josh era. I think you have to push chips on the table to maximize your windows when the are fully open. that said, I have real mixed feelings about this season and the current roster construction. We will always have a chance with Josh and I can write a narrative that gets to hoisting the trophy but I think this may be our worst positioning in several years. We underachieved some opportunities, but they could overachieve this year and take it. Just not sure it’s our ideal spot to push chips in now in general. I also am not sure about Hopkins specifically. Older, and coming off PEDs is a major question mark. Also creates a roster management question with potentially losing Davis at end of 23, and not knowing Hopkins future contribution for 24. I think I’m resigned to hoping Davis gets healthy and balls out a bit, brown gets healthy at RT, nyheim and cook get dynamic and if we make a trade it’s either a younger WR for a long term Davis replacement (Denver added another, is jeudy actually on the market now) or an impactful defender on a short deal with no VM til mid season and everything but safety having question marks. -
And no, not talking McDermott with MLB looking a bit more platoon-ish officially, who do we think gets the mic in their helmet this year? Milano? One of the safeties? Or do you think an mlb separates from the pack?
-
I think it’s much more the “could he be a tackle but I’ll settle for guard player has more upside value because tackle not because versatility
-
because early in the draft some positions are more valuable. A good tackle is a rarer skill set. do you wonder why a safety slides more than a corner? guards don’t need as elite a skill set.
-
on the fence here. Think the 5th they try to put at a position they can roster. But struggling to match upside guys to need at 5. for RB I think it’s a PS guy added, and not sure if roschon is that at the moment. after that, agree it’s loading bodies to compete on the perimeter both ways

grain of salt on comments. if you have an offer that is too low then “I’m walking away” is one way to try to move the needle. we won’t know the difference from here -
you can only win the battle in front of you and he’s done it with a lot of consistency and at high levels. i do agree with sentiments that he’s a weird fit on paper and have concerns that hes maybe a guy they didn’t love at 27 but got excited to see slide without remembering why they didn’t love him at 27. See guys like epenesa, basham, ford possibly being examples of weighing a guy as “would we take him if the board jams us up” turning to “hey we talked about that guy much higher let’s snag him” ignoring the profile not really matching the need so much as the position matching a need walking in if kromer can make him into Carl nicks, it’s a home run though. Glass half full still. Yea it’s the 10 yards on the occasional pull, not the mauling a 350 lbs DT 70 times that would wear him down

The Battle of a lifetime: Klein, Spector, Dodson, Bernard, Williams
NoSaint replied to NewEra's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yea I was curiously peeking at vets. Obviously none solid but a couple I’d be curious a status check on -

The cash is the real opportunity cost to weigh.Hopkins or that other free agent with the cash -

Klein is the leader in a platoon, someone else gets the headset in the helmet -
meh. If he were solidly above average starting caliber, he’d have a spot. Being versatile is extending a career not costing him reps.
-
you weren’t getting a viable day one MLB at 91 boss.
-
That OLB comment really meshes with what I was saying. Not an immediate Edmonds replacement
-
counter: I don’t expect them to think he’s a day 1 starter so it’s maybe not the same need based pick you think.
-
which scout was that?
-
meh, similar physical measurables don’t mean the same play. One could pick up the scheme wonderfully and grow in it while the other struggles. They both have question marks but we now have two swings at it instead of one and that’s better odds.
-
Good kid, really enjoyable team, fast and solid tackler, not an elite size or he would have been higher. you aren’t penciling pick 91 to be a day 1 guy but will compete for opportunities
