  1. We'll see there - i know they like to pass short, but i suspect a lot of those shorter targets he was getting end up going to Waller (assuming he's healthy).
  2. 2019 you missed Knox at 96. If you go beyond those rounds too you'll see players like Taron Johnson, Siran Neal, Gabe Davis, Tyler Bass, Dane Jackson, Hamlin, Benford, and Shakir.
  3. Moore too at pick 34. Vera-tucker was starting to play well and got hurt too. Their 3rd 1st rounder last year recorded 2.5 sacks too... but who's counting. Hall looks like he could be a good pick, but he blew out his knee and missed training camp so we'll see how that all goes.
  4. Never really worked out either. Addison, Klein, Tolbert, Benjamin, Webb, Johnson...
  5. I see a massive crash to earth from them this year. Tough division. Went 9-4-1 in 1 score games last year. 0-4 against dallas and philly.
  6. QB - Eagles RBs - 49ers WR - Eagles - It's close though OL - Eagles DL - 49ers - Also very close LB - 49ers DB - Eagles Pretty close - gotta give eagles an edge with Hurts though.
  7. They also used the 2nd overall pick on zach wilson the year before. So they got an all-pro corner, a NOT all-pro WR who looks to be a good player, and a worthless QB. With More draft capital than buffalo has had if you combine probably the last 3 seasons if not more.
  8. Just a hair late a bunch of times... when you're in that cover 3 or 4, you have to play behind the WR and disrupt the catch point because if you try and jump it and don't get it you're giving up a ton of free yards.
  9. Jackson's advanced stats are good, but i felt like when a team needed a 3rd and long they'd go at dane.
  10. In that 7 years the AFC was represented by KC 3x and NE 3x. The Bengals did make it 2 years ago - but i don't think their roster in 2021-2022 was the reason, just peaked at the right time on defense, got takeaways and took care of the ball. The Chiefs have one of the best offensive minds in football history, and one of the best QBs in football history. Their GM and scouting is also top notch. It's going to be tough to get in. Before that you had Belichick and Brady finishing up their run as the greatest dynasty in NFL history. It's a tough ask to have multiple super bowl appearances in this window. Need some bounces, some help etc. Example: Mike Tomlin is 1-1 in the super bowl, he never beat Brady or Manning on his way to a super bowl. It's going to be tough to beat KC and Cincy in the same playoffs, maybe one or both gets bounced.
  11. Well hes not going to be MORE healthy by showing up to camp! lol
  12. A healthier player...?
  13. I mean... all things considered... you can do a lot worse in a tackle eligible situation.
  14. His pick against Miami was pretty much a game saver. We were down 4 at that point. We play in a division with a ton of speedy WRs. Both Jackson and Benford run in the mid 4.5's, while Elam ran a sub 4.4. You basically can't play man if ur starting either of the other guys. My expectation is he has the job by end of year unless jackson and benford can make plays. Last year is a tough e v a l because all 3 played in various roles, on various sides of the field. Run fits and tackling matter as well, and thats usually something a coach will gripe with a young player on especially in camp.
  15. Eh - 41 year old non-QBs will always skip camp if they can.
  16. The first game was an absolute mess. Looking at the numbers too... 3 drops on 28 pass attempts. 2 by deebo, who also lost a fumble in the red zone. Not as if his guys did him a ton of favors in that one. Lance had 13 carries on the game, and only 4 are recorded as scrambles so its pretty clear they were trying to just run the ball.
  17. A lot of that is signing bonus though. I highlighted the things an acquiring team *might* be on the hook for. For 2023 you def pay the base salary as thats game checks (number on the left). The 2.8M is a roster bonus for camp so i assume thats paid out already by SF. So you would be getting him my GUESS is for 2yr at like 6.2M.
  18. Well... One of those guys is no longer with us, and the other guy runs the XFL.
  19. https://www.ourlads.com/nfldepthcharts/depthchartpos/OT Who in that 2nd column is good? And also... who in that 3rd column do we want to trade for? No ones trading anyone in that 2nd column most likely, as that requires pushing someone from 3rd string to backup.
  20. Pick 6 was inexcusable imo. Can't be having decisions like that when you're under the gun.
  21. Just looking at his splits inside 10 yards. They really aren't that good, they were better in 2021 though with a more seasoned coordinator. 2022 - Passing: 18/40 (40%) - 14 TDs and 3 interceptions. He also was sacked once. Running: 15 carries for 23 yards and 5 TDs (likely some sneaks here so yards really don't matter much). 2021 - Passing: 29/56 (52%) - 18 TDs and 1 interception. Running: 17 carries for 52 yards and 5 TDs. I'd say play design definitely needs to improve based on those numbers. I expect comp% to be lower, but 40 is straight up bad. Herbert was 27/49 for 12 and 1. He was sacked twice and didn't do anything on the ground. Lawrence was 20/36 for 15 and 2. He had 5 more on the ground. Basically, too many turnovers and inability or unwillingness to run the ball. Running the ball well inside 10 will fix a lot of the issues here. A bit more motion helps. Rub routes. Getting a little tricky too. Teams are going to play zone here until you force them to stop playing zone.
  22. Harty there are cap ramifications with cutting him - not to mention we don't know how and where he fits in the return game and the offense. He also was an all-pro return man his rookie year. Sherfield is a core special teams player, fast, and a plus blocker. Replaces Kumerow, and can play inside and outside on offense. Shakir has 2 years of cost control and probably should have gone prior to round 5. There's a lot of potential there, and potential value on his current rookie deal.
  23. Speeds great, but Isabellas got that body catching reputation and thats no bueno when you're 5'9". Speeds great, but if you aren't a good deep ball tracker or able to make anything contested you aren't going to get a ton of deep opportunity. Say what you want about bease's size, but he had a pretty decent catch radius and had some serious hands. If he can show to be a guy who can catch those allen fastballs in the short area he'll stick.
  24. If he had plus hands he wouldn't be a free agent with his measurables. At the same time - he was a 2nd round pick just 4 years ago. Just hasn't been able to translate it to an NFL field. The athletic measurables are there, clearly he didn't mesh well with murray, and before that they had trash QBs so that makes it more difficult as well. Sherfield is a plus blocker, flexible player, and special teamer. Harty can play inside and out, really good deep ball tracker, has some elite quickness, and is a one time all-pro returner. Shakir also has shown the ability to line up in both positions, as well as contribute in return game if necessary. Kincaid is going to also take a lot of the slot snaps. At the end of the day you have to evaluate where you see him fitting on offense and whether he'll see enough snaps to take a job from a shakir or shorter.
