I think he’s a great talent, but let’s not pretend he’s taken on the best even in college. He’s going to be licking sauce off his wounds for a bit in the NFL. I wouldn’t run my mouth about any All-Pros without stepping foot on an NFL field. Diggs is going to light him up as will Hill, those are not guys you see in college. Hill is sincerely a generational type of talent (and #######), Diggs is damn near impossible for the very best DBs in the league to cover one on one with Allen throwing to him. I’d expect them to throw it right at the kid from play one when they get on the field.

The Pats are done, their drafting has been poor for years, but this one takes the cake. BB should retire, seriously.

I wonder if they have the balls to flip Lamar to Carolina or Seattle if they can pick up Corall or Willis in the 2nd.

Hoping they can flip Edmunds for a top end pick and go get his replacement , still keep the 2nd round pick for something on the O

The fact Lamar doesn’t have a new contract tells you everything you need to know about Baltimore’s opinion on Lamar.

Hey, real quick, what did the Bills trade to draft Allen? Do you really give a *****?

About to see just how bad Lamar is when his #1 goes off in AZ.

Yep, absolutely insane when they touch the ball less than 10x a game. Even crazier when you don’t have a QB. The Eagles are a horribly run team.

You don’t know who might have chosen to move up to 23 to take him or move w Dallas to get him. It’s not about the next team it’s about ALL the others.

Why is anybody surprised? Everyone is laughing at Cleveland for paying Mayfield right now and he was 2x the QB Jones ever has shown to be. He was an obvious reach at the time and it didn’t work out. If Dabs can get him going, they can still re-sign him to a prove it deal.

Eating 3000 clean cals is child’s play, to maintain that weight and mass with what they SHOULD be doing is more like 7000 calories. I put down 4000 cals a day at 205lbs, the linemen need a LOT more just to maintain, assuming they are working.

Put him at Slot, who’s taking him? Just to mess with the D, rotate him and Knox as receiver and TE rolls.. it would be a lot of fun.

That’s a hell of an upgrade at slot WR.

Is he one of those guys that gets much better at the pro level or is he just a great athlete? I don’t know. It’s fairly uncommon for guys to come from small schools, not dominate the competition with elite physical traits and all of a sudden, “find it” in the NFL. It happens, but it’s not the norm. Usually a guy with THAT much size and speed stands out more. He’s a boom or bust type for sure, I’ll let the guys that get paid to project this stuff figure it out. He looks more like a 2nd -4th round guy to me.

I think the back 7 of our D is going to have to come down in cost going forward. The DL has come down a bit, but with Milano being paid, you have to pay Edmunds or move on, you have to find a CB 2 and both safeties want money, it’s not going to be possible to get everyone. Personally, I’d keep Poyer and send Edmunds packing.

Absolutely agree.

Sketchy at best they will let a first rounder go after that short of time. Flip a 5th and a conditional 4th next year, can go to a 3rd w 1000 all purpose yards, no pick traded if he’s not on the roster for 2023.

I say we trade #25, Edmunds and a 3rd to Houston at 13 and take Lloyd.. I can dream.

Because that’s not going to happen, 6+ YPC is an unreal hope. Secondarily, the biggest value in a first round pick is the 5th year option which we would have to either forgo or make him a top 5 paid RB, which there is no justification for when you have one of the best passers in the league.

That’s the entire issue, Taylor is not going for 2000 yards with Allen throwing for 4500. You don’t draft a RB in the first round with intentions of them touching the ball 15 times a game maximum.

The real problem is assuming JT would be JT in an offense with JA.

I think you are going to be awfully disappointed on draft night, you might get your wish in round 2 though.

I don’t think they missed, I think it shows there’s no point in drafting a RB high when the journeymen they have had there do the same work and the whole offense is still predicated on the QB. You have a team with one of the best in the game at QB, he’s always going to be the focus, when he’s not, Singletary was averaging 5ypc. What are you going to gain? A name and a contract you won’t want to renew in 4 years?

Harris was also a higher rated prospect in most peoples eyes. The Steelers also are a run heavy team. Everyone wants to be the Chiefs, learn from their Edwards-Hillarie mistake, RB isn’t valuable enough to draft high with JA as the QB. The best get 5.0 YPC, Mediocre get 4, the most they get the ball would be 20x a game. 20 yards a game is no reason for a first rd pick, might as well swing for a punter who should gain you 28 yards a game vs the bottom of the league.

The contract terms weren’t met, stepper ends up losing a lot of money on the deal, not sure how anybody sees this as his fault. Rock Hill pulled a bait and switch.
