  1. I also think Fournette is better than Gore/Singletary... and Chark/Westbrook are some solid young playmakers. Minshew came out absolutely slinging it too. Guy was completing everything and playing really well. He started to get a little shaky though, and just generally wasn't as accurate. Not sure if it was a "film was out" kinda thing, but he started to also have some ball security issues.
  2. Yeah - its possible they draft one? I know a lot of people like Dillon with his size. I just don't want to go into the draft needing one. If someone they like falls to a spot, sure - but i don't think it should be a position we're desperate to fill. I also feel like I'm done with Dimarco. I'd rather keep an extra WR or RB who can be active on game days. I hate when someone gets banged up and its like - well its the Gore show now since Dimarco can't play running back.
  3. He doesn't need to be power or speed. I think a 1 cut guy who can catch would be ideal. Howard maybe...? Mckinnon should he pass a physical and get cut would be interesting to add too. Still have Yeldon - but im concerned that he couldnt jump gore in the rotation.
  4. He's compact for sure. Not quite the MJD level of compact power, but he's tough to bring down for sure.
  5. Lorax played a little less than half the snaps a year ago. Not sure how many of these were as a primary pass rusher, but i'll assume a relatively low%. Figure another DE will be needed unless they bring back lawson. Same goes for replacing phillips. Someone needs to take those snaps - i think mcD would prefer a vet. If only to push some of the younger guys to play their best.
  6. Yep - i can't say much about a lot of these guys. I didn't watch a ton of clemson but from what i can remember 1 - he'd line up in the slot occasionally, so that tells me the route tree is somewhat developed 2- huge target for RPOs with huge catch radius for our QB who can be rather scattershot. 3 - Great contested catch guy 4 - beast in red zone 5 - hard to bring down. Specifically - I do remember higgins running over LSU's defense for a TD in the national championship. He didn't look very fast there, but he broke an arm tackle and trucked the safety into the endzone. He also got kinda boned on an OPI call in that game on a deep ball TD (i thought they were both pushing, the LSU guy just fell over so he got the call). I don't watch film, and I'm not going to say he's the guy or he's not the guy. Just pointing out reasons why he's probably a 1st round pick, despite his 40 likely being on the slow side.
  7. Before the last 2 years i thought he was like a "do your job" type of football player. Then i read his scouting report coming up and it basically read - DIVA. They also said speed wasnt there to be a fulltime starter, and he was too small etc. But they got the Diva part right.
  8. Yeah, mark Ingram money is appropriate there.
  9. He's a good, not great player. He's a better receiving back than most, but he's 27 and has a ton of mileage
  10. There isn't a guy in free agency who is doing that consistently - its a hard trait to find. Rookies can struggle out of the gate at this position too. I wouldn't be opposed to a corner or hybrid safety if the player is right. Even a speedy linebacker would be fine.
  11. I actually agree with you. I still say BPA. Team needs stars and i don't really care on the position.
  12. I just don't know what is considered #1 anymore. Does he need to be tall? or does he need to be fast? Do we want super big plays down the field? Or are you looking for someone who can catch the ball and make a ton of plays. I think Jefferson could easily compare to a player like Keenan Allen as much as Landry. Baldwin... Adams... These guys aren't super fast or super big but they're super productive because they can a- get open b- good hands c- make contested plays on the ball.
  13. Chan Gailey wasn't that great of an offensive coach.
  14. I mean - 5 straight pro bowls... averages about 90/1000/6. I think the way gase used him was probably wrong for his skillset, but he's still a good player. He can make plays down the field, has fantastic hands, active blocker, physical downfield and hard to tackle. He's not a true #1 receiver, but i think he's probably the best #2 in the NFL.
  15. Why would i pay gordon more? Ekeler is the better player.
  16. Id rather hear what he would have called instead Don't try to be romo. Just say what you see and how you would make adjustments. Quick analysis on where the ball should have gone when a QB makes a mistake. Etc.
  17. Guy makes plays down the field though. He just doesn't bring actual 4.4 separation to the tape. He makes a lot of plays, great at high pointing - great at contested catches down field and over the middle. I also feel like he's that guy thats just... open when you scramble. Finds the open grass or something. Shades of doug baldwin.
  18. It's one of the issues that the Fed has pushed on states, so the enforcement and laws are different.
  19. I mean - he legally can't carry it in the state. Let alone at the airport. Huge lapse in judgement.
  20. Yeah - someone else worry about his footwork or wonky arm motions etc. I just need him to read the field and make the right decisions quickly.
  21. I watch a decent amount of big 10 football... but i cant say i watch the DE on Iowa. I have no idea if he's good.
  22. Medical came back fine i believe. Not sure on the odds of recurrence - i remember reading Pitta dislocated his hip a few times and it basically ended a promising career. He also has missed time with high ankle sprains that he had surgically repaired so... There's definitely a checkered injury history there.
  23. I think BB is NE for life at this point. He lives 30 minutes from the stadium on a golf course, probably has a summer home on marthas vineyard or nantucket or something. They'll make him President of football operations/GM.
  24. He's better than the free agent WRs available, but i don't think it makes financial sense for them to trade him. They restructured his contract to lower his cap hit a couple of years ago... time to pay the piper. You're stuck with him. Well the team acquiring him wouldnt be on the hook for that. He has signing bonus, restructure bonus, and all sorts of other money tied up through 2021. If buffalo traded for him i think they would just owe him 1 million which is guaranteed for 2021 if they wanted to part ways.
  25. I believe they owe a certain amount of PSLs to meet the terms of that lease though - so while he doesn't need his fans there he does need to sell some people something or it comes out of his revenue share.
