How about no.

And he picks legit starters and contributors R2-5. I’d love for him to stockpile those picks.

I look at the QB situations in Miami and Arizona--and do not see bryce rising above that. If Simpson is there in the first--do you pull the trigger?

Btw, Mike Kaye doubled down on this take today on the terrific Processing Blue podcast. He believes Lloyd will be a very realistic option

That is kind of why I said guards too. Hell many played tackle but are drafted to be guards or were taken as tackles and failed so ended up at G. And obviously are at times converted to C also. They are kind of the catch all OL position.

Traded back and took Freeling then traded up for Anthony Hill Jr. All current year draft picks. I usually like to accumulate a lot of darts to throw but I feel like these are all locks.

I heard the Raiders were wanting someone to help Mendoza..I am j/king..

He was moved from center to guard, then got in the dog house. Looks like their Kubiak really likes him though he announced today. Probably wouldn't be able to make that trade now. I was wanting to trade for him last year before the deadline while he had pissed off Carroll.

His production does not suggest elite.

I think Fitterer got us into that pickle. I don’t remember exactly but Moton’s cap hit before that last restructure was really out of whack. There wasn’t much to do except make the best of it.

Bryce is just an overall significant limitation on our offense. No way to sugarcoat it. We can either choose to keep trying to figure out bandaid around it or move on.

Yet the playbook isn’t limited. Technically I guess.

I just looked at that, you probably did too. Time for the back channel scuttlebutt and see if we can find out how that Achilles was holding up. And whatever else. New coaches and people are saying it signals a scheme fit. I got no clue what they were doing in Tennessee. It also said he was due 8 million this year.

I haven’t looked at the guy and wasn’t even aware of him but that is interesting. Need to figure out why he was in the doghouse. No sense trading one problem for another. Dalton played well against them two years ago, teams always like guys that do that. Trade him over there too. edit: lol I am imagining XL in Las Vegas.

I agree

We passed on an all pro LT in Slater because his arms were considered short for the position. You don't pass on elite talent on the edge because his arms aren't ideal length.

Kenyon Sadiq at 19. Best LB round 2 Best OT round 3.

I'd actually be willing to trade XL for JPJ from the Raiders. He was the top center before Frazier we skipped over to take XL. He was in the dog house for some reason under Carroll. They've both been disappointing for the teams that drafted them. Raiders need a WR and we need a C. I think it could be a good move to get new scenery for both.

Other urgent needs aside, seeing Dan bear down on finding us LBs worthy of playing for the Panthers, guys that meet the high expectations he must have for that position on this team, I fuging love it. Edit: he doesn’t buy into the devaluation of that position that I have seen. He said, the other day, that is the guy the DBs are looking at in the huddle, the DL is looking at in the huddle, he wants a leader there. He didn’t use the term QB of the defense, but I will. They have made such a difference to our defense over the years, we just need to find that guy that can be one of the league’s best.

Corbett is a free agent. We dont really have a center at all. Seems fairly likely we resign Mays despite the talk.

Yeah I get it. I just said guards because we had been weak there and teams go through a lot of them. And I was lazy. I could understand thinking with those new guards maybe you’d be okay being a little less than good at C. And I have just always thought, right or wrong, that they did not want a brand new offense and this overwhelmed kid at QB to have to rely on a rookie at C making the calls and all that. My dad was a 4 year college C so I heard a little about it. Mostly funny stories about what he did wrong more than bragging but I appreciate having a good C and would have been happy with - was it Frazier? Whoever they passed up for Brooks. They are not gonna get it all right decisions every time especially being new, and I think they may be wanting to fix that spot now, let’s hope.
