  1. To see the crowd go from excited to shocked/defeated between the words Josh and Allen was interesting. Beane better hope he wins...
  2. Hey Bill, good to see a post from you again. I personally am really torn on the pick. If it wasn’t for the new regime and Maylock having Allen rated so high, I’d be a lot angrier, but not for the reasons you stated. Of the Big 4, Allen was the one I wanted the least and we still traded up for him. Others pointed out his stats, competition, and accuracy issues already to which I agree with. The fact that he was taken over Rosen made it worse. The fact that neither the Giants nor Broncos ended up wanting a QB, leaving the option of a trade for Darnold made it worse. But overall, we gave up so much to get another project and I’m just tired of hoping a guy proves me wrong. QB’s that normally don’t go first overall still have college success that make you think he’ll have a chance. Russell Wilson was a winner. Big Ben had a high completion percentage, etc. Allen doesn’t have anything to me besides an arm and height. That doesn’t translate without the accuracy and acumen. Those are two things rarely seen fixed. I can honestly say I wish they would have traded back a few spots for their LB, traded back from 22 and taken Lamar, and then used the rest of the picks for WR, OG, C, OLB, DB. And yes, I hated the idea of Lamar as early as yesterday. But I’d rather have the picks and take a chance on him than what we gave up for Allen. We gave up two potential starters, which we desperately need, for him. But like everyone, I want to be proven wrong. I want Allen to be the guy for the next 15 years. I just don’t see it and it’s the first moment that I’ve lost faith in Beane and McDermott
  3. I made this prediction months ago and got flamed. Ah well
  4. C MLB was need and value. The players and picks we gave up to get in position to trade for a project QB will set us back. This is my first time questioning the process
  5. I don’t. But of all the top 4, he is the biggest risk to me. For it to fall like it did and trade up for him, especially giving up two 2nd round picks... This was one of my two biggest disappointment outcomes. I’m deflated and pissed. I’ll be happy to be wrong, but I doubt I am
  6. Basically. I just hate it. I would have rather sold the farm for #2 and Darnold. Whatever. Now I can be like all the TT haters and pick him apart for the next 3 years
  7. Why do I just picture SDS sitting in front his computer, eyes permanently rolled back, tums on standby, and just a extended sigh as the thousands of new threads pop up
  8. Pastor, Who is the consensus QB the fans seem to want? Will there be riots if it's Mayfield?
  9. 2 hours until the draft. Last chance to put your money where your mouth is
  10. Shhh baby girl. Let Daddy Beane take care of you
  11. Listen man, I’m at work. I can’t be walking around with that going on in my pants. Have some respect
  12. Anyone else want to get in on this? You can edit right up until 12pm
  13. If those 3 are taken and those teams won’t trade us, then we may not have a choice
  14. Don’t threaten me with a good time!
  15. If it happens and the Giants take Darnold, then I don't know if I would even be angry. You can't make a team trade with you and the only thing we could have done differently is beat out the Jets trade. You can't control what you can't control. Use the 6 picks and make a really solid team so that AJ is just a game manager.
  16. I wish we had a video group chat option for the draft tonight. Even if there wasn't sound, it would be great to watch the reactions for what will probably be the most exciting draft in the past 20 years. Good or bad, there's going to be a lot of emotion, wives leaving, TV's broken, and probably bed wetting. Either way, I can't believe the day is here and I look forward to sharing it with you in the shoutbox.
  17. I’m already doing the cap math to see what cutting him will do to our dead cap space
  18. Or will just keep attacking other people's opinions on the draft, but won't actually make a statement of what they think will happen so they can't be wrong
  19. Interesting to me the amount of people who are so bold to say who we will and won't take in the draft, even shooting down other threads completely, but won't participate in this....
  20. Some people just want to watch the world burn
  21. Total points per person. So if 6 right and 2 wrong, you would get 4 points
  22. Looks like it could be Allen or Mayfield #1 overall now. May have to make an update
