  1. Johnson was a guy from a small school and many were very unsure of him that draft year. Abdullah was all Big Ten and pretty much considered the third best prospect in that running back class. The draft is funny that way. We picked John Miller that year about four picks before Johnson went. And Miller also went a full round before Shaq Mason. Pretty cool ?. Cam Meredith, Tyrell Williams, Adam Humphries and David Andrews all went undrafted in 2015. Just to add Abdullah is a big time character guy who would be a nice fit here.
  2. A lot of really good linemen come from the middle rounds. There are a large number of high draft pick busts on the o-line. Rams o-line are are having a great season. They feature 3 second round picks, a 6 and a 7. The same goes for a lot of the best lines in the NFL. Vlad was a second round pick and he sucks. John Miller also sucks and was drafted in the third. When it comes to o-linemen, draft status matters less than many other positions.
  3. This is an interesting guy who might be worth a look.
  4. Trappaso had him as his top guy over all of those quarterbacks drafted in the top ten and Jackson and Rudolph went in the third round. He isn't good enough to beat out Josh Dobbs and has been inactive all season ala Christian Hackenberg. Maybe he amounts to something someday, but Trappaso was wrong.
  5. Agreed. There is absolutely zero reason not to play Teller. Just let him play. Sirles too...if they aren't planning on bringing Mills back, what's the point of playing him? And I just have a hard time with Trapasso now because that was so egregious I really can't take him seriously anymore.
  6. Lewis looked good to me and I didn't understand why he wasn't playing more. Now we get to see him again. Still not sure why we never went after Bashaud Breeland but it is what it is. I like Wallace too.
  7. I'd take "meh" over "God-awful" any day of the week. But Trapasso was wrong about Mason Rudolph.
  8. I thought he would make a bigger impact in that room. Zay has improved, but other than that there has been lots of regression.
  9. I think Kubiak will take over the Broncos when they fire Vance Joseph. I think Joseph was hired because he was the easiest guy to fire once Kubiak wants to come back.
  10. That flex seal stuff actually work? I've been eyeing it for awhile.
  11. If they sign these guys, we should sign whichever reciever they cut.
  12. I still think their might be something there with 82, but honestly why not sign guys liek Troy Niklas or Ben Koyack...those guys are just sitting at home and better than what we have imo. Gaines has been bad the last few weeks. I do think that Ryan Lewis is better and I'd like to see him play more.
  13. Bring back Bobby April Also I think Taiwan Jones being out hurts. And Stanford starting at mike took him out of special teams reps. Jones is the big loss imo.
  14. I kind of wish we could get this defense or Jim Schwartz's defense paired with Chan Gailey's offense and Greg Roman's run game. Gailey could be the passing game coordinator and Roman the run game. We'd be all set.
  15. I think it was clear at the end that Rex had completely lost the team. They played with zero effort and did not believe in his coaching or scheme whatsoever. This team is still playing hard. They just suck. Vlad, Bodine, Miller are giving it everything they have, but they simply can't do it. McDermott needs to be careful over these next few games. I haven't seen signs of him losing the team, but he needs to tread lightly imo.
  16. I think this was supposed to be a tank year. I think they thought we were going to be more competitive than this. The blowouts concern me, and honestly McDermott begging the officials for calls makes him seem super lame. I lost a little respect for him yesterday. That said, I'm not willing to jump ship yet because a lot of these players suck. Gaines is awful. I thought Lewis looked better in short stints. Bodine really does suck. I didn't think Bengals fans were being fair, but he's terrible. Vlad and Miller are bad and so is Mills. The receiving corps has been pretty pathetic thus far. Nathan Peterman needs to go. I wanted to see a competitive team that squeaked out a few wins. The Texans loss, the Packers loss, even the Patriots loss doesn't bother me because we were at least competitive. Anybody who thinks Josh Allen isn't good, think about the fact that his presence raised the play of this entire team and they were able to squeak out wins and be competitive. Seeing how much this team sucks without him, proves to me that there is something special there. I don't think I can give up on McDermott yet, but he needs to field a competitive team in these division games coming up with the Jets and Dolphins. If we get blown out in those games, I will be done.
  17. One that comes to mind is Eric Mangini. The Titans should not have fired Mularkey either.
  18. A couple of interesting punter notes. Broncos released Marquete King from IR. Drew Kaser, who we worked out a few weeks ago signed with the Packers. That likely means they will be waiving JK Scott, who we should be all over in the waivers process. I'd love to get Scott in here.
  19. I wouldn't be against it. I still think Rob Chudzinski is the guy to bring in for Allen. I think it's the perfect fit .
  20. I agree. I just don't see a number 1 out there this year. That's why I think we might have to take a leap of faith on a Josh Gordon or Martavis Bryant. Perhaps there is a trade to be made somewhere out there.
  21. I'm a teacher. When I taught in the inner city I had a student named Alpacino. No lie. He was always in trouble too, so you'd be shouting "Alpacino quiet down and do your work!" Still makes me chuckle and wonder what parents are thinking sometimes. I think mom was a big Scarface fan.
  22. I consider myself to be a pretty knowledgeable fan...but what the hell is a River Cracraft?
  23. Don't necessarily disagree. I was just pointing out who GM Beane kept over having a third quarterback from the beginning.
