I think this has the potential to be like the Olsen/Shockey combo Cam had his rookie year.

Sounds beautiful to me brother

Wasn’t the biggest Sanders guy when I thought he was going in the second round. But, this is a great pick here can’t complain at the value here. Sanders and Tremble is a great duo between their abilities.

Trade back with all these guys on the board is wild

Did you know weight lifting is all about technique?

 

I go to a gym with a kid who is 20 years old 150 pounds and he benches 275 and squats 400.

Then you have dudes who come in the gym looking all buff and they can't even bench 250.

 

Weight lifting is more of a lineman thing.

Dude I’m not here trying to argue about weightlifting, I’m just pointing out it is objectively a red flag that he has a one percentile player metric. Do you disagree with that?

Buddy thinks lifting weights makes you a good player. You must be one of those gym freaks.

 

Watch the film. Tell me what benching has to do with catching and running routes. The only concern might be his blocking, but that can be coached. This kid has talent he will get stronger once he gets on our strength and conditioning program.

Having a 1 percentile bench score being a D1 Football player tells me he has a potential risk of not being hard working or being weak. This guy has been with a D1 strength program for 4 years, the differential between college and Pro strength programs is marginal. Hate on the gym all you want, just a reflection of discipline and work ethic.

He quoted his college stats his 5th year as why he will be a good receiver.   I said that the wr i compare him to also put up those stats in college. 

You used an incredibly broad statistic, I explained why your statistic comparison was invalid. And proceeded to use a more specific example for my argument and explain its use case, I can go all day man. You clearly don’t know much about football and especially the NFL Draft. Just keep hating and making invalid arguments it’s funny to watch.

College isnt the NFL.  Shenault had over 1000 yards receiving in college as well.

Pac 12 isn’t the SEC… Leggette is a vertical threat he averaged 17.7 yards per reception, you aren’t throwing this guy “bubble screens” all game. You’re using him downfield and winning vertically, that is why the panthers drafted him. We were never looking at short and intermediate weapons, it’s why Ladd wasn’t our pick.

Johnson definitely moved the needle but he may be gone after this season.  I dont think day 1 of the draft moved it much because I dont think a gadget player that you scheme touches for moves the needle much as far as overall wr corps.

Since when did receivers dropping 1255 yards in a single season become gadget lmao. Your hate of Leggette is absurd, gonna be fun to watch your take of Leggette age like milk.

On my board/mock I have Tennessee taking him at 38.  However, someone has to fall.

Here is my up-to-date mock--I was giddy after this. 

This guy knows ball.

Ja'Tavion Sanders Texas TE

 

Bryce has his weapons. No more excuses.

What’s so special about Sanders? Undersized tight end with slightly above average speed who only benched 8 reps of 225? That’s a big red flag, going through a d1 college program especially as a TE and only putting up 8 reps. Big pass on me this guy is overrated as hell give me Ben Sinnott any day of the week.

I’m hoping we get Leggette or Jackson Powers.

Love this, pay our stars!

Chuba is a good back and we are lucky Matt Rhules wife made this draft pick. But, he is entering the final year of his contract. Plus it’s good to have a solid rotation of backs on hand. I think RB is a sneaky need this off-season, I would be surprised if Sanders was still on the roster this time next year(maybe he turns it around). Even Blackshear will be a free agent, drafting a RB this year sets us up with leverage of not being forced to resign Chuba. The best RB fit in my eyes for a Dave Canales offense, is a quick first step home run hitting RB. Why not pair the most explosive RB in the draft with a creative offensive HC. Plus we could grab Jaylen Wright in the 3-4th round.

If you guys wanna check out the video I made about Jaylen Wright it’s linked below!

I see the DAWG in him

Great deal, great run defender and a decent pass rusher. Big W BOYS! Try running against us with Derrick Brown, Ashawn and CLOWNEY LFG

Save the pick, Hi Andy Dalton!

Mingo, icky and Shaq. 

mingo and icky are obvious

i think Shaq has been solid his entire career but never lived up to his draft spot. He’s never been close to a pro bowl although he’s technically the leader of our defense. 

Lol a late first round pick who is still on the team since getting drafted in 2015… and has been a starter most of his career and our leader in recent years. He has far exceeded his draft position, most players fail to even get a second contract.

I hope you find a way to enjoy the team.

Thank you, I’m hoping Bryce, Canales, and this new Oline works out. If Bryce becomes a franchise QB then even regardless of our record I will be very happy.

Could BC compete with Corbett at center? Or is he being groomed for RT if Ickey works out?

He is a depth signing. Don’t read too much into it.

No it's not. Doesn't mean playoff contenders. It means we're going to put up a fight every week. And it means we're going to win some games.

We aren't going to be a cakewalk or a gimme game this year. And teams that beat us will feel it for a few days.

Fug that brake. Be brave, bold, and stomp on that gas.

I hope you’re right, I’ll believe it when I see it. I have been sold too much snake oil in recent years, this team has soured me.

We're going to be competitive this year.

I think it’s good to be optimistic and I think we have had a good offseason. But being competitive after this past season is asking a lot

Pretty much everyone we traded or let walk. Barno's a 9+ iirc... but I get your point. The last OT I remember seeing a 9+ on was Greg Little. We all know how that turned out...

Bright side is, this guy is already proven(to an extent). Gives BC some competition and improves our depth.

Not sure why you mentioned Greg Little, he was a horrible athlete with a putrid RAS.

Eh

If we walk away with Chase Young I will be a happy man.
