SoCal Deek Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 13 hours ago, Shaw66 said: Here's my honest take. I've always seen Beane's reasoning on draft night, and I've always gotten excited about the guys he takes. I expect I'll be the same this year. I'll stay excited through September or October. However, I've got to say that my feelings looking back at his drafts are verging toward the angry side, and I could be down right angry if he hasn't landed some real help for the Bills. I want to see some serious contribution from Beane draftees. Rousseau, Epenesa, Elam, Cook, Oliver, Brown, plus the unnamed rookies, some of these guys need to start making plays instead of just taking up space . I’m right there with you Shaw. My take is that there has to be a disconnect somewhere between the scouting staff and the coaching staff. How does a kid go from being ‘our guy’ in April to barely seeing the field in October? I’m more apt to let the kids play and learn by experience and repetition than all of this rotational nonsense the coaching staff wants to force upon them. My two cents. Quote

Virgil Posted April 6, 2023 Author Posted April 6, 2023 Teams still available: Titans Bucs Rams Dolphins Chargers Broncos Some of you took teams with only one overall pick, or with no picks until the 3rd round. If you want to run a second team, that’s good with me Quote

GunnerBill Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 If it is the difference between us starting or not I am happy to take one for the team and pretend to care about the Dolphins. But it someone else without a team wants it then let them go first. Quote

There’s no sense in how all of this is going down, so do what you think is right in this crazy situation Quote

Sherlock Holmes Posted April 6, 2023 Posted April 6, 2023 ***1st trade of the draft alert!!!!*** The San Francisco 49ers have traded to the New Orleans Saints: WR Brandon Aiyuk Pick # 102 of the 3rd round For QB/RB/TE/WR/FB/PR/KR Taysom Hill The 49ers tried trading just a 3rd but it wasn't enough to coax Taysom from the stingy Saints even though they don't know how to use him properly... We followed up with WR Aiyuk as trading for Taysom makes him expendable with McCaffrey, Juszczyk and Taysom all able to run the wishbone with Deebo and Kittle interchangeable as our new base Offense. We now have 2 franchise QBs in Purdy and Taysom should one get hurt as well. 1 Quote

I like the chess piece and I get it…..but, without Aiyuk, every team would just play 11 men in the box. Aiyuk is the only legit route running WR. Without him, there’s no deep threat. You’re paying 4 playmakers (mccaffery, deebo, Kittle and Hill) that make their money within 5-10 yards of the LOS. i think Hill to the niners is a great move….but not at the expense of Aiyuk. I don’t think it would work. 1 Quote

McCaffery can go to the house, Kittle can, Deebo can, Taysom can... with Purdy's quick decision making and accuracy? Taysom and McCaffrey's ability to pass as well? please stack the box on us Edited April 6, 2023 by Sherlock Holmes Quote
