I think he's the decenting voice in the room that keeps them in check when he can. He tells them the consequences of every decision from a financial and team building perspective that has long been missing in the building.

I think adding weapons for Bryce doesn’t imply in R1. I think they’re still eyeing a TE like Njoku or Waller. I also think a speedy/shifty WR can be found on day 2, which would be fine by me as the WR room is still a work in progress.

I think this is where I'm at too. I'd say the turnaround really started once Tillis got a bigger voice in the room. All of a sudden we started making better draft picks and personnel moves. Which is why I didn't want to lose him to the Falcons.

2 plays in 3 years tell me a short yardage power back is unnecessary. got it covered

Here…here!

The way I see it is they will have to decide when they want to address the tackles. I would prefer they do it this draft and use next year's 1st on qb. If they don't do it this draft that means they plan to next year which takes qb off the table.

Cooper is a slot receiver and though we need one the 1st round is too high. The tackles are deep in the 1st round but after that it's just guys converting to guard in the nfl. I think there are 4 true tackle prospects on day 1 so it will depend on who's left when we pick. If none of them are then I would consider CB or S as that is probably the best available for us and helps the team more than a slot receiver at this time.

I am no oddsmaker but I’d have to guess 50% on Moton making the entire schedule. On the other side, if Walker goes down? We are in rough seas.

He's a moron.

Can’t agree more. Although I’m warning up to KC/Cooper possibly. The sum of what Proctor or Freeling *could* be or even the Utah guys I guess…is way more than what either of those two could be. Zach Branch could’ve you close to what they can at a discount. Obviously Cooper is tougher after the catch, but still. These guys ain’t going to be world beaters.

DE would be good. Agree on LB, want to agree on WR. Okay…just a general thought… our GM was a high level MLB. Our offensive coaches have WR roots merged with QB coaching. I think we should be expecting each of them to help us identify talent in their wheelhouse a round early. Even two rounds. Morgan ought to be able to look for a linebacker - in particular - and sometimes find, guys who have less hype but actually could sub for the hyped guys and not miss a beat. And you take them later and cheaper. Canales and Idzik, ditto with the WRs. We shouldn’t have to spend crazy assets to have quality on these rookie and lower interest FA deals.

I can’t believe we’re still doing the corporate mandated minimalist thing despite everyone hating it

Its not depth. Its your starting left or right tackle in 2027. Honestly they could be starting before this season is over.

Canales said they aren't drafting for depth.

These people talk this poo up b/c they play madden. STOP DRAFTING WIDE RECEIVERS

so you want to draft yet another WR in the first or second round that's supposed to save this offense, which would make 5 out of 6 years right? And we HIT ON ONE, and that's a hopefully. We have other positions of need and TE takes care of adding a weapon and a blocker. If Sadiq is there, there is no other option.

We aren't drafting a OT, LB, DT, RB, WR in the first round.

Horrible. I dont understand the trend of boring generic uniforms

BY only attempting 2 sneaks in 3 years, when the NFL average is over 1 per game, just proves that the coaches feel they need to add an player just for short yardage because we have a QB that they deem not able to do it. Having to carry 4 RBs will mean that we are short at another position. What will it be? TE? That makes the most sense.

I've done my homework on the guys who could be there at our pick and the best available to us will not be a WR or TE. We are 1 injury away to the oline to be looking down the barrel of another losing season. You tell me what position is going to help avoid that.

To be fair. Most post that I see from you come from a place of negativity. I think being so cut throat on things like the draft seem to me as if those thoughts are lacking their due diligence. There isn’t any one position that I think holds more value to the team than another except for the QB position. So adding pieces in any manner helps. I do agree you have to take into account needs and where we are short. But if we pulled a receiver out of the draft that was like Jamar Chase. I don’t think you’re singing that tune. Or passing on a guy that caliber for let’s say and OT that is equitable to Ekwonu. both play their parts in making the team better or worse but one can be a game changer. i think early on with your picks the best approach is looking for a game changer at any position. And hopefully that falls in line with our needs. But if not, and we land a generational talent then that can help us win. and I do understand value and positionally where that can be a reach. So I do understand your take. But saying the FO is failure by drafting a certain position group before seeing the cat play is short sighted IMO

I cashed out my hornets bet for a 3x last night as well. I'll take a 100 dollar profit off 22 in bets. I'm ready for soccer Saturday

I wouldnt mind the alternative logo on the helm and some scratch marks on the sleeves or something

Is it really proven though? First, it's a five-year window. For as much as we want to laud Detroit and Tampa Bay, they've had their issues, and to be honest, we can't say with surety that either will even be in the dance this year. I guess what I'm saying is that, at the end of the day, team building is way more complex than saying just draft lineman on day one or day two every year, and you'll be in contention every year. It still comes down to actual team building, putting puzzle pieces together each season, and with an eye for the longer term (cap implications, talent, potential, chemistry, and all across all positions). It's highly complex. Lately, Howie Roseman has been a master of it all really. Secondly, PFF is really making a distinction between drafting tackles in rounds one through three versus four through seven (and UDFA). I'm all for keeping OTs in the pipeline, but you still can't say that you have to draft them on day one when a lot of damage can be done on day two as well. Lastly, like it or not, it's indisputable that some classes are just better than others at certain positions. We made it a priority to draft Bryce in 2023--traded a king's ransom for him, when all we had to do was wait until 2024 when the draft was better stocked at QB. It's not necessarily a good thing to have a tunnel-minded view at the expense of the big-picture view, which comes back to the fact that team building is more complex and individualistic than trying to force a general formulaic approach to a specific situation.

I think the black helmet looks the best with the blue shirts.
