To me, it's about probabilities and bust rate. The highest we could reasonably trade would be fringe top 10. There's no sure things there. If we trade 3 picks for 1 bust it'll really hurt. I also think you have better odds of finding an elite player with 3 bites in the top 60 than 1 bite in the top 13 or whatever.

Return of the Tre! (Tre White signs with the Bills)
DrMaxPower replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
He may not be. He had a slow recovery on the knee, maybe the same is true on the Achilles. Worth a shot. My guess is the 'up to' is doing a lot of heavy lifting. -
Return of the Tre! (Tre White signs with the Bills)
DrMaxPower replied to FireChans's topic in The Stadium Wall
I like the the move. If he can be 80% of what he was we've got a decent cb room pre-draft. Hopefully now 2 years out from achilles he's closer to his old self. Took him 2 years to get over the knee. Worried he's cooked though. Didn't see a lot last year but what I did wasn't good. Worth the risk. -
You want a monster run stuffing DT? I got you a monster DT
DrMaxPower replied to DJB's topic in The Stadium Wall
There are very good reasons there are zero players anywhere near this big in the league. It isn't because there aren't any. -
They both look totally out of their depth but I think ownership is a contributing factor. They've should have been rebuilding but were stuck trying to be competitive to save their jobs.
-
I agree but that makes signing 2 vet qbs all the more wierd. Either they have no plan or can't get anyone to take their money. Tanking for Manning doesn't work for Schoen or Daboll who will be out on their a$$ with another rough year.
-
This is the wrong year to try and trade a RB. I read Daniel Jeremiah say it's the best RB class he can remember. You'll be able to pluck very good players in the 4th and 5th rd. Nobody is giving up a pick for the privilege of paying him 15 per. You'll be able to draft people 90% as good for 5% of the cost. Most likely scenario is he plays out the season and either moves on or is tagged.

If Pegula will sign the checks. It's tiresome to listen to people endlessly blow Roseman. He's an excellent GM but it doesn't take a genius to add 4 void years to every deal. It takes an owner willing to spend more than the others. Their success is about Lurie as much as it is Roseman.

It's still very good. I played oline for 12 years. I can tell you that in some ways it's harder to block for somebody who is constantly moving. What may be a safe redirection angle on 1 play puts your man in his lap the next. There are probably as many instances of Josh creating his own pressure with happy feet in clean pockets as there are times he bails them out making free rushers miss.
-
For YEARS, the big complaint was the oline. 'Build a dominant line', 'Keep Josh upright', 'Fix the line and everything takes care of itself'. They did. We are paying 2 blue chip tackles. We just wrapped a season in which we probably had the best, most consistent offense in the league. And yet the 'Josh does it with no help, we need to invest in the offense, get him weapons' narrative thrives. I don't get it.

This account has been outed many times as a no-source fraud that just makes crap up for engagement. FYI

Beane's comments made it sound like they were already not on the same page with Benford on value. This pretty much ends any likelihood of an extension IMO. They'll draft a corner early and go from there. If he gives them confidence over the course of the season he can be a CB1 I think they'll move Benford. If not, they'll tag him and reconsider after another year. A couple months ago Benford was my 1st priority to resign. Then he took back to back concussions to close the season with the 2nd one of the scary variety. Add that to him apparently chasing top dollar and I think he's now a guy you let someone else pay if you have a reasonable replacement.
-
I would have thought Benford was 1st priority of the potential extensions. Now I'm wondering if the 2nd concussion has scared them off. I wouldn't be shocked to see them wait and see how the season goes and revisit half way through.

DK Metcalf requests trade to a contender
DrMaxPower replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
If we can get him at a compensation level ($ and draft picks) that doesn't compromise fixing the defense, great. He'd fill the biggest question mark on O. That said, I'll never understand this idea that we need to prioritize resources to the offense. It's like a person over-complicating weight gain/loss. Calories in VS calories out. Points for VS points against. It's exponentially more difficult for a top 2 offense to add 5 ppg than a bottom 10 defence to reduce 5 ppg. All the complaints about previous defense investment are the very definition of sunk cost fallacy and irrelevant. It's still the area that most needs attention and the area most likely to hold us back. -
Another one - Trey Hendrickson asks for a trade from Cincy
DrMaxPower replied to Roundybout's topic in The Stadium Wall
This is the one to target if we want an end. Garrett is going to come with the 'offer they can't refuse' price as they don't want to move him in the 1st place. Guys like Bosa and Mack are a big risk. Hendrickson is about as much a sure thing as you're going to get.
