Mr. Scot

Person stated they have "conviction", they just happen to have it on more than one guy. Knowing that more than one guy suits your needs is not "hoping or guessing".

Not sure if anyone's said it but to be clear, I don't think Tepper needs to redeem the franchise so much as he needs to redeem himself as it's owner.

I'd forgotten he and Shenault were teammates.

Well, I'm sold

That's how they judge gymnastics routines. Throw out the top score and the bottom score and keep the rest.

Actually several guys on here had been talking about Sanders and hoping he signed here. Opinions are not facts.

People kept looking for an ulterior motive when Kuechly retired. There wasn't one. Guys are learning to pay attention to their health.

Most guys seem to get that it's a business so they don't take things personally. But yeah,some do. And then you've got guys like Rodgers

I love everything about Bryce Young... ... except that one thing

He did.

We might. The full backstory of the discussions behind the Newton pick came out not that long after it occurred. Teams generally don't care if you know when they were bluffing once the poker game is over.

Marty didn't know sh-t about receivers. The one guy he can claim to have gotten right was heavily influenced by Norv Turner.

If you're smart, it does. Our own people have stated numerous times that talking to the players is extremely important to what they do. That's why the pro days and visits and such are so valuable. Ask yourself which is better: knowing the pick soon or getting the pick right? They have until Draft Day to debate this if they do desire. And as long as they get it right, where's the problem if it takes till then to do so?

From the behind the scenes stories of the search, yeah we do. What we don't know is if he'll continue.

I seriously believe they say around and said, "we could take this guy, or this guy, maybe that guy if we do some more research on him". That's reasonable, and reports have said that's exactly what they're doing. The notion that they have to be settled on only one guy rather than two or three to do this has no basis in fact.

Hang a Saints fan instead. (you'll feel better)

See above Hell, if you read the story of the Cam Newton discussion, that decision wasn't made till pretty late in the process. And there's no Cam Newton in this draft.

Exactly...

Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men?

I've seen a lot of folks subscribe to that logic, but it's not really valid. You trade to be able to pick whoever you ultimately want, and in doing so this early they've given themselves plenty of time to decide that. The notion that they absolutely have to know right now is a fallacy.

With none of their pro days or visits having happened, I suspect that's the real truth.

Not free agency but big news nonetheless... Prepare to see Commanders fans dancing in the streets. (or shield your eyes to avoid the trauma)
