I'll be interested to see what this means for Shady. Both Jordan and Boldin are elite blockers. Zay should be a good blocker as well, but that has yet to be seen. Add that to an increased role in the passing game, and McCoy could be in for a MONSTER year.

That is the point. What really matters in this league, and how do you get it? Are you going to argue that the Pats* don't constantly let there "star" athletes go for little compensation to avoid paying them? The key is having a top organization with a system in place. All on the same page. And having a QB. Not just blindly acquiring talented players and hoping for the best. Let's put a little trust in our new regime and let the process play out.

Yeah, I went through the drop statistics. This is getting way overblown

So do the Pats*

Like it. Trumps lunch pail.

Rams are taking the Whaley approach. We'll see if it works out for them

Great post, thank you

Didn't know you were so high on Sammy and the 2017 season...

Bump This will probably be a popular thread this year with all the picks

If Sammy stays relatively healthy from here on out it's a TERRIBLE trade. Performance is not the bet. The bet is can he stay healthy. We'll see how it plays out

I wouldn't look. It will get worse

Half of the people on this board don't meet that criteria!

Maybe they can sign Method Man

Tolbert had no chance on that play

With great feet and quickness as well! Interesting player for sure. Will be a fan favorite.

The hyperbole on our o-line is out of control. We have the same starting unit coming back from last years top rushing unit. We lost Kujo as depth and added Dawkins

I've never seen such amazing unity on a topic!

Please. Except when you're trumpeting your "superior" views? With comments like- "I, as well as anyone that knows what they are seeing, think this" in response to other "fans" views. I have been here for nearly 20 years myself, not all with this current account. You add valuable perspective and football content, but your holier than thou attitude and inability to admit being wrong, rubs people the wrong way.

And then there are the rational, highly accurate, prognosticators- like Badol

Yes, accuracy is very important. But at this point, first ever preseason game, I find it hard to quantify. Is he fully in sync with his WR's yet? Maybe he threw the ball right where he wanted to but the receiver wasn't exactly where he expected? Ran a route at a slightly different depth? At this point I'm much more concerned with how he looks out there. His command of the offense. How he calls the plays, gets guys lined up. HIs poise, pocket presence, and decisiveness. Stuff like that.

Yes, crazier things have happened than a first round quarterback developing into a quality starter.

I can see how that comment can seem offensive if a poster was unaware of the running joke on here. Kirby did a great job of explaining it

I was VERY impressed with Watson. Yes, he missed some throws, but his command of the offense was impressive. Running a hurry up two minute drill in his first game? Seemed to have a real good feel for pressure, and kept his eyes downfield while he was moving around extending plays. Looked good to me.

Nice read

I don't know, we have some depth there. Maybe Hodges steps up? Or Ragland? Or one of the rookies?
