Just had a baby a month ago so no window jumping for me! But yes I really won't be happy about it, but I will support the team 100%. I honestly wish I loved Rudolph because he will be available without a trade up. I just can't see what others see. If I'm wrong will certainly be ready to eat my plate of crow. 

 

 

I think the difference is that there have been murmurs around that Allen could go #1, going all the way back to Schefter's report during last year's draft. There are others that have this opinion, and it wouldn't be crazy to see. If it happens, there will be people questioning the move, but the consensus is that he's a first round quarterback with huge potential. Trappaso looks like a crazy person all alone on "the world is actually flat" island. 

 

...LMAO....a Genome Smith disciple?......the whole gamut is all about opinion which sells......the GM's and their scouting grunts never show their cards and rightfully so....and even their picks are actually "opinion" based on substantial research as well as personnel prowess with no money back guarantees or refunds for busts....but yet the fickle here want McBeane fired if he misses on this, his first draft...go figure.....

If we trade up for a qb, what positions on the o-line are the ones we target this year and next for an upgrade? 

 

C, RG, RT, LG (in that order?) 

 

Do we have long term clarity at any of those spots yet?

Can I get a refund on JP Losman and perhaps Torell Troup? It be nice to have Aaron Rodgers and Gronk. 

 

Ill take store credit for EJ Manuel and slew of other crap draft picks over he last 20 or so years. 

 

I will say that McBeane's tenure will be defined by the quarterback pick they make this year. They grossly mishandled things with Tyrod and Peterman last year and they need to do this over. Drafting an ordinary guy is just not going to get it done. The 6th or 7th best quarterback cannot be the plan. I think they want to get one of Rosen, Darnold, or Allen. Anything short of that doesn't really move the needle in my opinion.

...pretty obvious that "practice did NOT make perfect" and post Polian is a pretty damn good indicator.....you know the gory details on what you cited with no need for a painful rehash.....at the same time, I think that McBeane and his pretty formidable staff of seasoned NFL personnel execs (they wold be Pegula paid) sure as hell deserve a shot with this being their FIRST COLLECTIVE DRAFT as a personnel team and even get 2019 IMO...sure as hell look better (on paper so far) versus the patchwork crap post Polian of non-football people in positions unqualified for or employing those beyond their prime because "trust" triumphed over ability...
