Shaw66 Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 I've mentioned this before, and we saw it again last night. McD was asked about it agreed - he wants to be strong up the middle. That's at the core of what he wants to do, and Beane is on the same page. Since McD has arrived: Hyde, Poyer, Edmunds, Lotulelei, Oliver, Morse, Allen. McBeane's highest draft picks and biggest contracts have gone right up the middle. 3
FeelingOnYouboty Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 It's why we're going OL with our 2nd pick

ChevyVanMiller Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 So you're saying Kick Holder in Rd 2. Got it!
BringBackFlutie Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 The best team in the league, for 20 years now, has the best offensive line, and a defensive line/line backers that clog the middle. They'll kill you in the air, while their QB has enough time to order Domino's and make a cappuccino, but they can also run right through you. Beating NE has always been about being stronger than them up the middle and playing fundamentally sound- think Ray Lewis's Ravens and Luke Kuechly's Panthers. Too many teams are willing to leave holes in those areas of the field, and it's so easy to scheme against that- think shallow crossers to Edelman all day because your MLB isn't good enough to cover. Take him off the field for a lighter coverage guy, and they run right at you.

Assuming Taylor goes before us Yeah I want Dalton Risner so bad but I expect him to get snatched up before us. He offers so much. Team leader and a guy that can play 4 positions across the OL. Whoever gets him is getting a future team captain of their team.

Yeah I like him a ton, but it would be hard to pass up the upside of Metcalf at 40.
LabattBlue Posted April 26, 2019 Posted April 26, 2019 For the board old-timers, I can't remember who was the other participant in the argument, but it was DT(represented by the never forgotten AKC) vs WR(I can't remember who this poster was)? LOL
