  1. Regular season stats mean nothing. We left a lot of points on the bone in AFCCG. Its easier to predict "buying" points, than it is to pay to stop them. You think if we went defense on every pick the next 2 years, we're gunna be in the vicinity of Eagles defense? Cause thats the defense its gunna take to win on that side of the ball with McDermott vs Reid. Im not saying ignore defense, or even go light on defense. First priority needs to be getting Josh a true #1, however you have to do that, doesnt matter. We have a chit ton of extra picks, and all of next years. IDENTIFY THE WR YOU WANT, GO GET HIM.... THEEEEEN USE EVERY PICK ON DEFENSE AFTER THAT IF YOU WANT!! Get me a stud #1, and then im stoked to draft a badarse DT. CB. DE. Go BPA at DT, CB, DE with every pick after. Wonderful. I'll be stoked to see the defense improve, but until we get Josh a guy who can decide hes going to be open despite whatever coverage is coming his way... our seasons will continue to end in heartbreaking close games. Year, after, year.
  2. 100% this. WR on this team is the only position that can provide an absolute Hiroshima of synergy!! 1 + 1 = 10 Go get Josh an elite #1 again. I dont really care what it takes if its the right guy. So frustrating to have not done it last year, but I get crap happens. We just can not enter another season without a #1 WR. We have a high end #2. Then, with development realistically we could have a few guys worthy of being a true #3. Turn every stone for a trade for a veteran stud. Or identify a stud in the draft, go up and get him. Work the phones and take a gamble to trade up mid-way now..... and draft day make another move to go get your guy. I know that sounds crazy, but put an AJ Brown on this team. We got atleast 1 chip, pushing for #2 this year. We saw the type of defense it took to stop Mahomes. We are not 1 or even 2 drafts away from having that kinda defense. Anything less that 2024 PHI defense isnt winning you a chip. Josh having a true #1, has us win that AFCCG buy 2 touchdowns. We stay out of the 3rd and longs. Make Spagnola dedicate serious resources outside the hashes. We have no outside threat. So they stack the box, and hover over the middle.... then were forced to run the ball into run prevent type defense... and throw the ball to middle of field. IT PLAYS INTO THEIR HAND. Go get a #1 1 + 1 = 10
  3. The only way to make need match value (aka BPA): A. Sheer f'n luck B. Trading up C. Regular Trade "A" for a WR ould be dope, but very unlikely. "B" & "C" make the most sense. I dunno that theres value in trading up in the 1st round, but maybe they see something I don't. So maybe in day 2 or later. C - may be a good option. I'm not looking for a Julio Jones in his prime type trade, but if somebody ends up deeper at the position than needed, and we can make a draft day trade, my panties would be soaked. WTF did AJ Brown go for 2-3 years ago? I remember thinking it wasn't nuts, and hard to argue Eagles didn't win that trade. Now, who?? Noooo clue.
  4. This is a great philosophy. G2 disagree with the RB in the 3rd though. Its a non-issue for us at #30, but if Jeanty is sitting there, I'm 100% sprinting to podium, taking him, and unloading Cook to recoup draft capital + save $$. No 2nd contracts on RB is a good theory for 95% of Backs. The board has been over the exceptions, high level dual-threat guys who catch the ball a ton. CMC. Saquan. I understand the argument on Cook, but im not doing $15m and especially not more than 1-2 years. I just think if your strategy is no 2nd contract, you g2 be willing to take a truly superior talent IF IT PRESENTS ITSELF. Especially at the end of rd 1 or rd2. Im not taking any back in the top half of rd1 though. Its not 2015, RB's are effective AF in the NFL right now. Build line first, but if you can polish the run game off with gnarly back, im doing it.
  5. This stinks of grandma on FB thinks the OK symbol means 'white power'. I mean IDC, i wont miss it, but wouldnt be the NFL if they didnt over-react to something silly
  6. He'll be fine the short time hes there. He starts to become unruly after 3 years. Dude built quick chemistry w/ teammates year 1, and i think he'll be model citizen. The flip side, Diggs is a route technician and exactly the guy i want Hunter learning from if im the Pats..... now am i intentionally choosing that contract to have him mentor Hunter? No. But he'll be fine this year, next too, and they'll move on. Bet him and Hunter hit it off and exchange some crucial knowledge. ... but that doesnt fit the (understandably) salty jilted ex-lover theme here. Dude gave us his best years, was awesome to watch 2.5 years at minimu, gave it his all.... but hes a mentally ill person. Strikes me as a guy you can never spend too much time with or things will go sour. Ive been around people like that, the thing that makes them so fun at first is, unfortunately, the opposite knives edge that makes him unable to maintain relationships. Try not to take it so personally
  7. Not that this makes this a smart decision, but im pretty sure dude made more than that his last year at Texas w/ NIL's/sponsorships. Doesnt mean go all Jay Leno, but saying hes worth 800k isnt accurate either
  8. Idk/dont care who wrote this. Firstly, weird metric to count re-signing players towards FA class... at least from a news point of view... thats more the way Id expect our FO to look at a class, so maybe thats a cool progressive way to view it, and I can accept we did pretty good from there. If were just counting FA, I dont think were #1, and not because we didnt go flashy Davante Adams, who most of these articles would anoint the best FA class. We had a Poyer/Hyde offseason that was under the radar and was best FA class that year. Im splitting hairs a bit on how he defines FA class I guess, so I can get on-board'ishhhh. But the bolded: EEEEEEKKKKKK. This smells like a guy only reading headlines. I dont think we signed him to fill the #4 or #5 WR role, disingenuous at worst. Uninformed at best. Obviously that contract for #4/5 role would be an overpay LOL Beane expects this dude to start as an outside WR or bare minimum compete heavily for the role, and to think otherwise is insane to me. Trash writers. Trash network. I've had more informative football talks at the urinal with my **** in my hand at any bar in Buffalo, than what this jag writer has to say
  9. I like that. Big dude. Not being asked to be the flashiest receiver out there. ST's guy, I cant say I KNOW, but usually those are the guys willing to do grimey work. Use that big-arse body and become a run blocking beast.... make the occasional catch situationally. I know he's tall, do I remember hearing he was kind of a deep ball guy without the high end speed? Hollins did that well. Hopefully he rubbed off on Shavers. What a great example of a guy who has made a career from always living at the bottom of a receiver room, but finding ways to stay employed. No snark, im serious. Living that low down the totem pole, knowing you have to cut out your own role to stay on a team/ in the NFL. Live ferociously on the LOS! Play ST's! Make yourself un-expendable, and went and earned himself a nice contract!! I'd prefer Shavers wear shoes and wash his hands, but if I were him, having had a year with Mack really should be the ultimate example and blessing on your career!
  10. Hey, it'll feel that much cooler if it works out. People kinda forget, myself included..... after 2 full seasons, this was still the narrative around Josh in a loose'ish way. "Man this kids cool and likeable, it'd be awesome if 'that' kinda guy became THE HIM we need" Season 3 kicked in--- by week 3, we knew we had a superstar. Dude kept his head down, stayed humble, worked on his craft How freaking sweet was the fruit of that labor! I do think this offseason is going to be Keon's biggest reflection on how he will turn out. It really would not shock me if he's completely dedicated to prove the doubters wrong. I think he has that 'IT' inside him. No wife, no kids, eat and sleep playing ball. Dude sees and hears all the doubt. Hopefully Josh is in his ear, telling him what he went through. I know he has a goofy attitude, but I think he really cares about proving people wrong. Thats at least half the puzzle.... I'll be honest, Gabe Davis had 'IT' too. Just didn't work out for whatever reason. Hopefully Keon does, he could be a unique weapon
  11. Yeeeep. I know isht like this happens, but if you wait 30 years to do something the cops cant prove or disprove anything. Im not for tearing down peoples reputations without them being given a chance to fight....... in court these girls have no chance. In public Marcell is now a "rap-e-ist" in a non-insignigicant amount of peoples eyes. Test: find someone to do the 1 word association game with and say "Duke lacrosse". Those boys were COMPLETELY exonerated 100%. Were on a sports forum, and I bet someone reading this right now is thinking "they were?" Yes, they were. The accuser is in jail for killing her bf. IDK how we solve the problem, but I know 30years is too long. i also know when 2 drunk adults meet at the bar and consensually get down; one party doesnt get to wake up/change mind their mind retroactively after the fact, and say the other is an R-word. The bar to use that word is so low now, that it doesnt mean anything to hear anymore. That word used to be able to insta-mute a whole room of people, just by showing up
  12. I'll bet you one Sean McDermott their answer is Hunter all dayyyyyyyyy, and while hes not my favorite NFL prospect, its hard to deny what he brings to the table and our needs
  13. Too bad for him honestly. His BS really cost him the most in the very end... I ALWAYS THOUGHT he would be able to age well with the sport. hes a route technician, never a speedster guy, when Hill loses a step hes going to fall off a cliff.... but Stef had to be a jerk and scare teams off.... then tearing his ACL at 30 or 31.... weve seen how long it takes guys in their prime to bounce back. 2025 is a wash before its even started.... next year hes what 32? While likely having a sub 500 yard year this year. with threat of an attitude.... while wanting to be paid like hes the same.... nothing going in his favor, and hes going 2 be the last to accept it
  14. Get Kromer an extension and mini promotion as Asst HC or something along those lines please
