His QB for all but 1 season ...

I could name the starters, and most depth and jersey numbers.

Depends on if the guy that beat him out is better than Burris...Safety, and specifically FS has been a huge issue for our defense, I mean as sketch as Charles Godfrey was, that was about the last time. Also is the 2015 season from Coleman. We also had the guy we lost to PIT Mike Mitchell in the 2013 season I think it was, and he didn't even move to FS until injury if memory serves. Hopefully this with Fitterer having seen first hand what a talent like Ear Thomas / and even Mathieu in his Cardinal days can do makes this position a bit more of a focus as we move forward. Under Rivera is was a complete and utter focus on the front 7, IMO a good but outdated philosophy, yes it protects the secondary, BUT when you can't get there, you have limited options in coverage. Even in 2015, outside of Norman our DBs were afterthoughts, and our Safeties were both in the back 9 of their careers (Coleman / Harper) This staff's approach seems to center on good talent at every level versus stacking it all in the front 7. More of a team approach with a few studs here and there (Burns, Brown, Chinn, and likely now Horn). Meanwhile we have good players in Perryman, Shaq, Donte', Reddick Bouye, Jones. With emerging talent the likes Yetur, Carter Jr., and potentially Pride who held up under fire.

I don't see Free Safety in this excerpt, none the less the safety that has a ''box'' support sole is generally the SS. It would likely be better to list him as that as between the 2 safety positions, the Strong is the one you see lining up in the deep middle, in the box, and at times over the slot as the ''Big Nickel''. Burris and last year's 5th rounder Robinson are the current FS depth, brining in HaHa to compete makes some sense, and Burris was a corner transition to S earlier in his career, & Robinson came from the XFL. At the least HaHa would bring true center-field experience to the back end / depth.

If he's blitzing inside which is likely it offers an opportunity for a free edge rusher depending on numbers. He's an offball LBer with Luke gone. Better metric would be the team results on those blitzes.

You can't look at an annual avg, you have to look at the guaranteed money, Shaq cost less, there's more than a 1M dollar difference.

He was FT'ed we had the money to do that, DG was just feeling himself and pulled the contract. We could have kept Bradberry if we'd not paid Shaq, that was Hurney being Hurney. An interesting thought is who wanted to STAY here, to be fair some of the over-payments, or dismissals over the years could be for players who had options after that 1st 4 years. Not saying they all did, but some did.

Y'all must not know, he was NOT a voluntary opt out. He had high risk health factors, he HAD to.

So receiver separation needs to exist...

See the Jets record during Sam's time there when he didn't play. It's like 0-10 if memory serves. Top 5 QB picks generally go to bad teams. Which means bad records. Lance had a two year removed SB team trade up for him. I expect a lot from him early.

Didn't get that impression at all.

Good watch if you have time...

Tremble is a ''forecast'' pick, excellent for the short term in the sense Rhule has been saying he wants to build a ''tough, and physical'' team. He checks those boxes. The interesting thing with Tremble is the POTENTIAL, he's probably the day one best blocking TE on our team, and that's generally the hard part for rookie TE's. Hands get better with reps, and ND just did not use him that way, running a 4.59 and having enough height and weight (Panther's site says he's 6'4 / 250, article says 6'3 / 240) -- it's a lot to be intrigued about. In an offense like ours that creates a space, and a QB that isn't timid, I think we could see some decent production in the passing game as a rookie. He has the athleticism on those dump offs to turn the corner on defenders. With the attention our other options, receive he should have some space to work with out of the backfield, and underneath.

You're missing AJ Bouye

Go watch ALA tape, he has a good amount of reps at RG, if memory serves the LG swap was for 2020.

Offense: QB - Sam Darnold / PJ Walker / Tommy Stevens HB - CMC / Chuba Hubbard -- Depth -- Rodney Smith, Trenton Cannon FB - Tommy Tremble (based on personnel package) TE - Dan Arnold / Ian Thomas & Tommy Tremble (based on personnel package) WR - DJ Moore / Robbie Anderson / Terrace Marshall / David Moore / Shi Smith OL - Brady Christensen / Pat Elflein / Matt Paradis / Deonte Brown / Taylor Moton (I think Brady has a chance being a bit older, and developed physically, Brown's track record at ALA can't be denied so I think he edges out Miller) -- Depth -- Erving, Little, Dailey, Scott, Miller -------------------------- Defense: (Showing as a 4-3) DL - Burns / Brown / Jones / Gross-Matos -- Depth -- Fox, Haynes, Roy, Nixon, Miller LB - Shaq Thompson / Denzell Perryman / Hasaan Reddick -- Depth -- Jermain Carter (Area of need) CB - Jaycee Horn / Donte Jackson / AJ Bouye -- Depth -- Troy Pride / Rashaan Melvin / Keith Taylor S - Jeremy Chinn / Juston Burris -- Depth -- Kenny Robinosn, Sam Franklin, Myles Hartfield ----------------------------- In my opinion another off-ball LB, and veteran safety are needed, I feel good most elsewhere on the roster.

People wanted him because Olsen was oft injured / showing signs of aging and if memory serves we were picking in the range he got drafted. The real issue was he was like a 25 year old rookie if memory serves.

A lot of people need to start watching the pressers between draft days, you get some solid insight. We got the extra 3rd as mentioned - 2nd round value in 2022 We also received a future 4th - that covers the one we gave up for 2022 We also re-couped the 6th -------------------------------------------- And to take it further beyond those points, we started this draft with 7 picks, and ended it with 11. I'm sure many of us were thrown after we passed on Fields, but by the time Friday wrapped the plan really took shape for me. I understand WHY they passed even if I don't agree, they're building the best possible ROSTER, as we saw with SF, if you have a complete team, you can make a move for a QB, and we're not tied long term to Darnold. I will saw I'd swap out Fields for Horn knowing how our draft went, and I'd have not picked up Darnold's 5th and let those two battle in camp to get the most out of each. But I'm also not paid millions to make these decisions so

Locks: 3 Moore / Anderson / Marshall Penciled in: 2 Davide Moore - Physical prowess similar to DJ's, makes a lot of contested catches vertically, has the 3rd most experience behind DJ and Robbie Shi Smith - Has a build, and athleticism that should make him a good fill in for Curtis, he's not as thick as Curtis, but is closer to a true WR vs Curtis who was a true hybrid Special Teamer: 1 I think this spot goes to Zylstra because he's been available, and has in game experience, this could easily be Kirkwood as he brings a bit more as a receiver, but he was hurt all year, I believe he only appeared in one game. PS: Bayless / Kirkwood or Zylstra (if eligible) / Simon

Check the RAS

Bouye, and Jackson will probably be the ones moving in and out based on matchups, I don't see Hartsfield doing a lot of this at all, he was depth last year, and IMO didn't show enough to be more than that. Keep in mind Rashaan Melvin is also 6'2, and we have Pride as well who flashed as a rookie. Not a lot of reason for a UDFA guy like Hartsfield to see many snaps in coverage at corner. Stantley Thomas-Oliver had some nice moments too.

Fuuuuugggg Dalton - 1yr / 10M, and they traded a future 1st, and a 4th and 5th for Fields Darnold - 1yr / 4M prior to the 5th getting picked up today -- We pass on Fields, this is nagging at me man, shiiiii
