Victory Formation

He was actually a really good prospect at one point, but it seems that injuries have derailed his career. Hard to play at a high level with back/spinal issues.

Yeah.. Honestly, I couldn’t careless if mocks are accurate or not. Just give me a list of the players and I’ll decide myself whether they’re good or not. I don’t need someone to do that for me.

This will alienate him for sure.

That’s a bunch of crap in my mind. Nobody should be able to force you to get injected with something otherwise you aren’t entitled to your livelihood. That’s illegal, if it’s not, it should be.

This is what happens when you treat women as objects and not as human beings.

Although I’d rather have Ertz than Njoku, I think we should open up talks with both teams and hopefully drive the costs down.

Can never have enough corners. I’m even warming up to the idea of one at 30. Not my most favorite option, but still a solid option nonetheless and justifiable.

Well, I hope you stick around after the draft my friend.

Lots can happen in 7-8 years. Josh could blow out his knee or maybe something catastrophic like that could happen and although I think Josh is extremely high character and will likely never in his life experience any issues legally, the whole thing with Deshaun Watson scares me. What if he shatters an ankle like Dak Prescott or has an Alex Smith like knee injury? Give him a 4 year deal, pay him $45M/year. Josh will earn more money that way and we’re protected long term financially.

Carman screams RT to me. He to me is a Cordy Glenn caliber of prospect. Some may say that’s a bad thing but Glenn was quite good before he mailed it in, good enough to land a 5yr $65M contract with the Bills at one point. I don’t think Carman would be a good LT because of athleticism, as you pointed out and I couldn’t agree more but I do think if you put him on the right side he is more than adept at manning that position. He’s 6’5 335lbs and he is extremely thick. I see him as being a road grader on the right side. Sam Cosmi to me is a guy who will be a good LT. If I could think of a player comparison it would be Anthony Costanzo. May never be elite, may never be a HOFer but will be a good starting LT in this league so long as he is healthy. May sneak into a Pro Bowl or two but obviously this guy is nowhere near as gifted as say Penei Sewell. He will never be in that elite echelon of LTs but he will not be a liability however in any way. Regardless, the depth at tackle in this draft is completely astounding to me, I’ve never seen anything like it.

Guessing at least 4. Two in the regular season and two in the playoffs.

I’m hoping he falls to 30 and we can trade out.

I have Sam Cosmi and Jackson Carman ahead of Liam Eichenberg.

I agree. I was just playing with Solomon’s idea. I don’t see it happening either.

I think you would have to put Edmunds in Milano’s old position and Collins would play in Edmunds old spot.

Who would I plug into the starting MLB spot? Probably Zaven Collins. Micah Parsons is incredible but he won’t be there. Collins can manhandle linemen, rush the passer and is a hammer in run support, smart player but not as athletic as Edmunds is in coverage per se but he makes up for it in awareness. Edmunds consistently shoots the wrong gap and once a lineman engages him he struggles to shed blocks and although he is athletic, he is consistently out of position in coverage and is easily confused by QBs and most packages. Could the lights turn on for Edmunds this year? Absolutely. I’m a human being, my thoughts are not infallible. I do think Edmunds would be better as an OLB than as a MLB. He is a specimen, if he could grow intellectually as player between the ears he could be a force. Honestly though, I’ve been his biggest critic since the draft, I don’t care how many Pro Bowls he’s been to, wouldn’t pay him. Don’t like how he’s not physical either.. Anyways, I’m not talking for the sake of talking but I do love talking football, maybe more than I should but we all have our vices. No disrespect to you or anyone else on the board, I just don’t like him. It’s a touchy topic here though I get it. Very touchy topic.

Well, in all honesty Edmunds is terrible, hate to say it.

Is he better than Johnny Utah?

I think he can be good, not great. I question his mobility on pull plays and whether he can lead block in open space. Seems to have pretty good power when it comes to pushing the pile, but even that isn’t spectacular. He could be a decent guy though when it comes to pass protecting for Josh Allen, good if not solid player, will never be very good let alone elite. Good enough in the sense that we don’t have to draft OL this year unless there’s a spectacular player there. He’s not a bad player, just not overly wowed away by him.

I’d do it for 5th or 6th.

I do agree about the speed factor and I do agree that we need a replacement for Beasley. Rondale Moore seems like a sound player, do you like him better than Elijah Moore? Which Moore do you like more?

Carlos Basham Jr

Think when you’re picking towards the bottom of the 1st, you take what’s there. I’d trade up for a stud DE but that’s about it.

DL is a lot like OL. If you don’t have the right pieces around you, you’re going to struggle. How many times did Hughes and even Addison beat their man but the QB simply stepped up in the pocket because our IDL could not get any push? Seems to me that that sort of thing happened quite regularly. Now, I wasn’t crazy about Ed Oliver when he came out of college, but in all fairness, he was playing 1 tech when he was meant to be a penetrating DT. That may have been okay for him in college, but in all fairness, that was never supposed to be his role in the pros. Do I think he is the next Aaron Donald? Absolutely not. I do think he can be a very good DT however if you plug a big fat NT next to him. In many ways I think I was wrong. I think he has a relatively high ceiling. Give me Tedarrell Slaton or Marvin Wilson and Ed Oliver will have a great year.

I like your play on words there sir. 😉
