Yeah, take JC was a start. We still have 7 picks. This is going to be guuud. Folks raging like the draft is over, and all we got was JC. Man, I love this joint.

You both have your biases. I respect it. But I don't have the energy to argue your lack of evaluation ability. We needed CB, and we got one of the best. Sorry you cannot be happy.

How many of his games did you actually watch last year? JC is a top rated CB. We needed one, we got one. Yea us.

The QB folks are mad we didn't take a QB. The OT folks are mad we didn't take an OT. The rest of us are happy we got one of the best CB on the board. At a position, in our Division, of extreme need. But man, this thread was gold. Gold I tell ya.

Dude, your reaction is typical Clempsun bs. Just because JC played at USC you claim he is not any good. He was the highest rated CB coming in. Just go with it, and maybe do some homework. And not go off your bias.

Oh shut the heck up. Or go be transcendental elsewhere. lol

Rage? Any number of stupid things could make me rage. But quit? I have way to much invested in this here bi... to actually quit.

If everyone agreed up in here, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun. There is just something about folks blaming that WFT win for us not getting a premo pick that gets to me. To me, one win here or there is not going to change our franchises trajectory much. If at all. I guess after 70 years of marriage, I am picky upon which hill I wish to die. And a meaningless win late in the year is not much of a hill to me.

What did we lose? We are picking at 8. We are going to get a really good player. Treating the win at WFT like it cost us a generational type player is funny to me. We are not going to fall off the end of the world picking at 8 instead of 4.

What about that LIon win? That made us 4-7. We were out of it by then. Why is it always the WFT win? Recency bias. It was our last win. So it was a stupid win.

How come nobody complains about that pesky 3 game win streak when they harp on that WFT win? Are they somehow different?

I have never put anyone on ignore. I grew up believing that everyone has a voice. No matter how stupid it may be. I am stocked and ready to go. I just can't decide when to start. Start too early, and I can sound like any other idiot. Start too late, and I won't have nearly as much fun. Decisions, decisions.

Not going to lie. It will be bad at 8. But man, if we trade down, the drunken raves will be epic by the time we pick. Just glad I have no life, cuz I wouldn't miss tonight for nothing.

Yea, abysmal may have been a tad harsh. How about extremely frustrating? I would think that if we pass on Fields, Sewel, or Slater at 8, then it is probably a CB at say 15ish. Then LT at 39. Not saying that is what I want, cuz normally I don't get what I want. But this may be how things work out. Normally I would go ahead and take the QB, or franchise type LT at 8. But this year is different. I may just go with the trade back and grab more assets. Unless they some how mess this up. Then it wasn't my idea.

Horn, Sertain, Sewel, and Slater have the best shot at succeeding. However, there are others who have a chance as well. Just a longer shot to do so. If you can get one of those 4, you good. For me it is trade back for Horn, and then LT. I should hope to come out of that with 2 top shelf starters. And still have draft capital to still make some noise.

That short yardage package was no where near a thing of beauty, that's for sure. And it definitely played a role in our lack of point production. IMO, I would put it on a par with our Defenses inability to get off the field as equal partners in our abysmal 5-11 record. Fix one and we are better. Fix both and we can be competitive.

I think the trade down has gained some speed lately. Getting extra draft capital would help this team out tremendously. The 2 nickles over 1 dime paradigm.

Man, how many options are in front of us? Sewel, Fields, Horn, Chase, or that other guy. I'm downright giddy with anticipation.

If it's a 4th, they are out of the running. Step up, or step back.

Not that's a haul. lol I would druther have lost out on Fields. We can get a capable LT early in the 2nd.

It's nice to have a dream. But, trust me. You don't want to put all your eggs in that one basket.

Screw the Draft Chart. I want a haul. I deserve a haul. I want to fleece somebody. If I am giving up the 8th pick, I want somebody to pay big time.

Man, that's the rub. What does "plus some" come to? Is an extra 2nd, and 3rd enough? Maybe the further we fall, the more it should cost? I want to be greedy. lol

IMO, it all comes down to compensation. I ain't movin back for peanuts. You make me happy, and away we go. The right haul gives us the opportunity at half a dozen good to great players. I think I can live with that.
