A habit of it huh ?? appreciate the link

I’m all over the place at times. Just saying the line would look better especially on paper if Allen got the ball out faster like some other quarterbacks do. I don’t have any problems with the guys we have or going into the season with the current group. But if we’re using PFF ranks and stuff grading the line Allen doesn’t do them any favors

That was a fun read, funny to see how many posters upset about the Allen pick are no longer commenting on here. Hate to be wrong on that draft analysis, I for one am quite happy. I hated Rosen. I was Allen/Darnold all the way. Once the Jets got that pick from Indy I knew we were getting Allen.

That’s my thinking on it as well. They had some lapses but Allen isn’t doing them any favors rarely taking a dump off pass or hot read or anything on blitzing plays. Add in the fact we can’t execute screens and it causes some ugly pressures. He was hovering over what 3.5 seconds holding the ball last season? I don’t have the advanced metrics of it but I think he lead the league both seasons in time holding the ball before release.

Chargers called his bluff and didn’t give in and it cost him big time.

I’m with you on this one for sure. Motor, Hyde, rookie and Jones. Add in Yeldon for possible injuries during camp or preseason and I’m good with that stable of backs.

I’m happy him and Gurley signed elsewhere. I don’t think either are going to be any kind of difference maker. At least with some guys like Carlos Hyde you know what you’re getting. I’d still like a vet signed and a rookie drafted for competitions sake. But I’m happy we didn’t sign either of those vets. Although they got paid less than what I was expecting

You wouldn’t want someone to actually look for the productive thread would you ??

Rams got Sam Darnold? Can we get Rosen too and eliminate that draft class from the opposing teams in the AFC east?

Truth right there.

The offense is fine. There are plenty of weapons already and we still have the draft and basement bargain players to sign later. If you want to worry about the offense start a thread on if Daboll can utilize these guys and change up the philosophy from last year.

Lol at Flacco . Come on people, did we see the disaster he’s been? Why is he an upgrade over Barkley? Cause he won a super bowl 10 years ago? He has been a shell of that player for years. I would prefer to sign Jeff George or Kelly Holcomb before Flacco. Leave Barkley alone, he can win a game or two if Allen is hurt.

I think we’re pretty upgraded on the line, especially against the run. I can’t see anyone running on this group. That said the pass rush is still a little concerning but only if Addison falls off a cliff. If he’s a 7 sack or more guy at his advanced age we should be alright.

I would gladly give next years first and this years second to land Mack in a bills uniform. Problem is for some reason Chicago thinks they’re in the same window to win now. Maybe mid season if they flop he’ll become available and be for much less compensation.

I’m aware of what it is. I never said it was a bad signing. The point was they had 3 active running backs all season, but only 2 played offense. Jones can play some snaps so I hope they mix him in even if it’s limited snaps. I don’t think he’s the backup or nothing silly for singletary. Just need to mix that third back in for new looks for opposing defenses. I fully know who jones is and what he brings.

I expect a rookie or Carlos Hyde kinda guy to takeover gores touches. I just want 3 active who can all play when needed. It was too predictable with just Gore and singletary.

He’s just another player now who can occasionally make a play or two. He’ll probably hang around a bit and get some 1 year 5 million deal from someone. Don’t see it being us after all the signings we made

Allen has enough weapons. If this offense can’t be top notch with what we currently have plus whatever running backs we get and possible draft picks Antonio Brown ain’t making a big difference. We’re good

I fully disagree with that. Perry was active for special teams as was foster while duke and Yeldon sat. To say neither could contribute on a sputtering offense I cannot agree with.

I don’t think it’s a throwaway or bad signing at all. But they need to use him as a player as well as special teams I guess should have been my statement earlier. Not as a strictly special teams guy. Unlike Perry Jones can take a couple carries or catches. I’m not asking for much lol 5-8 snaps a game. Just a different look for opposing defenses. It was maddening last season.

And that’s good news. But we still need more than 2 running backs active who can take a carry. Jones is an upgrade over Perry cause he can play offensive snaps. Just saying they need to use more than singletary and another back. We learned this last year. Yeldon isn’t CMC but he should of been active to change things up

Lots of guys can play special teams. It’s a travesty to have gore and singletary as the only two active running backs and Perry not able to take a carry and Yeldon just twiddling his thumbs inactive. Special teams is fine, special teams only players who can’t play offense or defense is a waste of a spot

I don’t like these special teams specific signings. So Jones is going to be active while Yeldon or an actual running back sits every week? They better at least utilize him in the offense a few snaps

Im gonna skip the draft. I just can’t do it this year. I might watch the top 10 in the first round but I’m not too excited for rookies this year. I’m ready to roll without them. Normally I’m hyped for the immediate contributor and seeing who I like.

Good thing they have 100 draft picks to use lol
