I live in South Carolina and watch a ton of Clemson games. He also had just dominated Ohio State in the bowl game. I called WGR the day of the draft and told Sal that I wanted the Bills to trade up and take Sammy. They did but it was kind of downhill from there. 1

Strong arm, physical, but inconsistent accuracy and decision making and he played in an air raid offense in college. Credit to the Chiefs for being patient with him and turning him into the most exciting player in the league. I did too. To me, he looked like a 14 year old punk you would see selling weed under a bridge somewhere. I just didn't think he was a mature adult, and figured he would crumble under the pressure of being a pro. Boy, was I wrong.

chris heff Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 I called the EJ pick and hung in there with him way too long.

If anything I can overshoot a bit on some of my favorites but that is also rare... I have forseen the likes of: Christian McCaffrey Luke Kuechly JJ and TJ Watt Joey and Nick Bosa Cooper Kupp Julian Edelman Eric Weddle Wes Welker Leighton Vander Esch Harrison Smith Gronk Ryan Kerrigan Soon to be: TJ Hockenson Josh Allen You didn’t list any CB’s. How did you feel about Jason Sehorn? And what about Isabella the Great? Edited April 18, 2020 by Rico

Xavier Cooper, Owa Odighizuwa, Paul Dawson, Hayes Pullard, Eric Rowe. Best player I was way too low on, probably Jamison Crowder. 2016 - Most of the WR class, if I'm honest. Stephen Anderson (Cal TE), Landon Turner, Noah Spence, Bronson Kaufusi, Jeremy Cash, AJ Stamps. I was a lot lower on Buckner, Hunter Henry & Jack Conklin. I'm not going any further or I'll cry I'm doing good, thanks. How are you? Didn't you tell us OL Jon Miller was going to be the cat's pajamas?

I definitely thought he was going to be a decent fit for what Greg Roman was running. His second year, we started to see some of that come to fruition. Then the scheme changed. I don't call having a Late 2nd - Early 3rd grade on a guy that's been a low-end starter for 60 games a miss though. Edited April 18, 2020 by Blokestradamus

I was convinced he was a #1 guy. I think with Rosen the problem seems to be with his work ethic and attitude rather than his physical talent. While there were suggestions in media that maybe football wasn’t important enough to him, that stuff is really hard for anyone to have insight into unless you can interview him, his coaches and others around him - stuff that nobody here has access to.
Buffalo Boy Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) Ryan Mallett. Kid had a cannon for an arm and some off the field issues which meant we could pick him up later. Was so pissed when the Pats took him and thought he might eventually take over for Tommy boy??? Edited April 18, 2020 by Buffalo Boy 1

OldTimer1960 Posted April 18, 2020 Posted April 18, 2020 I remember thinking that Soloman Thomas was going to be great. I also didn’t like Mahomes or Watson - I thought that Watson’s receivers in college made him look better than he was and I didn’t thought that Mahomes college offense and his school yard plays wouldn’t translate to the NFL. Hmm, not so good on those counts...

Well, loved Jason Sehorn. I think we are seeig some discrimination in the DB department honestly. Hopefully that will work itself out. Isabella is going to be dangerous, not sure why he didn't have a breakout season yet but with Hopkins maybe he will get his this coming season! I know Renfrow started slow but picked it up at the end of the year as well! 2 hours ago, 1ManRaid said: Getting a strong whiff of shooting first and then painting the target around the arrow then. Not even close, I have had meltdowns to the point of a temporary ban on missing out on some of these guys as proof. I do have misses but it is over shooting on some of these guys... Hock and Isabella could be case and point if they don't pick it up these next few seasons.
