Fuh K Tom Brady, That is all...

Where is my Kama sutra oil.., damn it...

I would agree for the most part with how you classify BPA..., For me, I have pretty much always thought that there has never been a draft pick that wasn’t need driven, I say this because, needing a RT for your team for example, is a need, or getting a player that is “better” at what ever, is always a need, a better player no matter how that is measured is and always has been a need for every sports team ever. All draft picks are needs, because all teams need all sorts, from role players to stars, needs needs needs. So to say that “BPA” is some how different, and not classified as yet another need just doesn’t make sense. It’s all about getting the right combination of players that puts your team over the top.

Beane does indeed draft for need, as does the entire league, they as you said just give lip service to the BPA thing, BUT! The window for success is not this and next season, not by a long shot, tell Brady and Belicheck that they had a two year window..., Beane and McDermott are setting up this franchise for the long haul not a two year window and then fall back into the mediocre team BS that the Bills for all to long, that is not the game they are playing, many folk here can’t seem to wrap their minds around what is actually happening at OBD..., they fully intend to be in the SB mix for decades, not two years. Just my humble opinion...

Beane brought this up in the post season PC, basically stated that the run blocking needed improvement, he did say that both RBs need to be better as well, but he did put the onus on the O line. The run game scheming was not good and Beane’s comments alluded to as much, he put the offensive coaches on notice as well, as it were.

Every team in the league, pretty much every game played, Thank you.

That guy ^^^

Geometric symbols on jerseys will be the next big thing..., kinda like Prince or the artist formally known as...

Because it to ruff and tumble here, or at least that’s what I heard back on the old BBMB 😁 an attempt at humor... sorry,

Sweeney can catch the damn ball, and I hope TS makes the team. There is room for both DK & TS imo. 👍

I’m thinking that logos come a very far second to a better helmet design, this is an opportunity for a clever graphic artist to come up with a work around, it will like look very cool if done correctly, jmo.

And that is an example of my point, 👍

No way man, I’m in it to win it... 😁

Beane never commits to anything, he just leaves everyone blowing in the wind, gets folk to spin what he says in almost any direction, he is damn good at being noncommittal, Go Beane!

Tasker not being in the HOF pretty much proves that the NFL and HOF voters do not consider STs as an important part of any team. They treat STs like the red headed step child of pro football.

Awarded to the pats...

I know! Doesn’t have electricity either, I’m not sure if he even has a front door...

This guy is in the running for the village idiot award...

Don’t care even a little, about what any of them make, it’s not a part of why I follow the team, never has been.

We went from a sh-t O line in JAs first season, to successful run blocking schemes the 2nd season that our RBs did very well with, and then on to the start of the 3rd season, to having Spain getting his head stuck in his azs and quitting on the team, then we had and continued series of starter O line injuries that went on for pretty much the whole season, and the blocking schemes changed during that same period of time, we pretty much never had all our starters playing together at all last season, on top of losing Spain, who was very good the year before, that’s what I’m getting at when I said some folk are ignoring what the root cause of our run game woes actually are..., without good run blocking RBs don’t do well, ya gotta fix what the problem is before you get the results you’re after..., some folk just don’t get this ...,

Good on TS! He’s been through some of the nasty side effects that someone recovering from C 19 can go through, hoping all the best to him and his continued health!

Those that still insist on a 1st round RB to fix our run game problem, appear to have purposefully ignored the history of this teams O line personnel turnover and injury’s, plus scheming and the timing of those things over the last three seasons. Those things have directly impacted what was a run game that was what this style of offense wants. Someone up thread stated that this line of thinking is related to fantasy GM group think, and it appears to be the case..., separating fantasy from actual football appears to be a problem for some fans...,

Youz guys keep bringing up stuff like this and my nervous twitch is gonna come back....

It’s not just Beane, It’s Stars then DC & HC and now DC and HC that thought/thinks this to be the case, arrived at by seeing him play for years, that says one of two things, SM is bad at evaluating defensive players which he is not, or he isn’t bad at evaluating said players..., as well consider that the D has been better with Star, I think you’re looking for the unicorn conformation on this, just my way of looking at it...

Fans being fans, a very high percentage of us know a lot less than we pretend to know, this as you all know includes me... 😁👍 although I can honestly say I was happy with the JA pick, for me there was just things about Mayfield and Rosen that I didn’t care for, I thought that JA and LJ would end up the best two, so far my W A G has held up so far... I get lucky once a year or two...😁
