    Yeah this is a really big test drive right here. Better not fall on our faces.

    Game winning drive opportunity here. Let it loose kid.

    Not a fan of the 2nd down play call there

    Brooks’ acceleration and power combo is great.

    Todd Bowles always looks like he just farted and is geeking out about it.

    XL wtf

    I don’t get the surprise responses with Tremble. He had a bad game last week but otherwise has done well when asked to produce. Seem people have really conflated a bad game to him being a problem but he is no Ian Thomas.

    Tattoo Eddy's officially got the yips

    It was super obvious we needed a sure-handed route running type who could flex between slot and z. But Morgan had the eye for XL and never let go of it. We just don't seem to like those types. Have had the opportunity to draft more than a few that had immediate success in recent years.

    I like him as a mid-round in general (not specifically for us). Although, we need depth at most spots and have a lot of picks. Could be a 4th-5th rounder to take a stab at. Never hurts rolling the dice with backups. Sidebar - I will say, I am sufficiently confused to what these playoffs will bring. I can't tell if there's just parody for once in college ball or if, as the draft class is hinting at, there's a pretty big void in talent right now. I'm not impressed with so many of the offenses around the country this year.

    Holy hell that was a scary hit

    McCord had some beautiful throws in that Miami game. Him and that Pena (especially) impressed. Jeanty is an absolute beast. Hard to see him slip past the top-10, even as a RB Ricky White Jr. from UNLV is a WR to watch. He excelled even with their crazy QB situation this year. High end talent. Day 0-4 against Michigan (and losing to this year's Michigan team) is rough SMU will not be a pushover for the playoffs The highest rolling teams are Oregon & SMU. Texas maybe. Unsure if Penn State, ND, & UGA have enough offensive firepower at this point, they've been so hit/miss, this playoff season is a tossup if Oregon doesn't run the table.

    The opponent warmup strut is a new one for a 6-5 squad. Husker fans aren't too happy with this one. This is his 3rd year..15-21 overall. Technically bowl eligible but we'll see if they even land one. *Waiting for the "y'all are so salty, get over Rhule comments"

    That ending was brutal. Was in a Bears house for Thanksgiving here in Glenview so it hit at another level lol

    They all have pretty big warts. I don't think any would have been taken ahead of Verse, Latu or Turner last year. Carter was an offball linebacker not long ago, but you're not getting a Parsons every time this type of prospect comes along. I find the other hybrid offball/edge in Walker just as interesting, although he weighs a tad more heavily on the offball side. Pure edge, I like the kid from BC - Ezeriuaku. He' probably my favorite for us in this draft come Round 2. I could see him as a riser through the draft process.

    If anything, these were many of the guys we liked per reports so it does speak to Morgan’s taste/having a decent nose for some talent.

    Just an article.

    Link at the bottom from The 33rd Team. Interesting to see a lot of the guys that were floated as choices for us (Ladd, Frazier, DeJean, & Sainristil) Some excerpts: https://www.the33rdteam.com/ranking-the-14-biggest-steals-from-2024-nfl-draft/

    Per PFF (take it for what it’s worth) he’s graded out at 60.1 in run defense, 67.4 tackling grade. His pass rush is high 50s. Slightly above his work last year. Best games were against the Bengals and Giants. For context, their grade scale is 50-below average, 60-average, 70-above average, 80-league wide top 10%, 90+ elite. He doesn’t seem to be performing that well eye test wise, should be able to find an upgrade.

    The last game was such a contrast to everything else that this needs to be built on before making any declarations. Next thing up is to see how this week unfolds. One week at a time.
  25. Bear Hands
    Yeah if we were spiraling I would consider a different strategy but extending seems appropriate if we can work something out. He is north of 30 so could be wise to start eyeing the draft even if we extend. Don’t let a strength turn into a weakness, keep making it stronger.
