I agree to a point, but certain schemes in theory and on the field play to a player's strengths and makes him look good. That's what the draft and FA acquisitions are all about. Of course some players can thrive in any scheme, but I can't say that Chinn is one of them.

Luvu due to finances and Chinn due to scheme.

Oh, wow. I didn't know. I had to look it up.

Meanwhile, CJ and the Texans are blaming the refs.

Yeah, he's shaky to say the least. I wouldn't do business with him.

Higgins is very good. He hasn't even nearly hit his ceiling, and he very well could be a top 10 receiver in the league. Ochocinco thinks he's a top 10 receiver already. Shannon Sharpe says top 15. As for getting paid, all the top receivers get their turn. That's just the nature of the game.

Yeah, but I don't see it as a possible overpay in regards to talent---Higgins has shined when Chase wasn't even on the field (he has)---it may be an overpay if Higgins continues to be hurt for games at a time.

I'm not going to be overly critical because it's too early to judge some of these guys (and I have to keep telling myself that), but they could do a much better job of actually drafting players. If we have another draft like the last, it will be one helluva red flag.

He's just holding onto the ball too long. If your ready isn't there, it just isn't there.

Well, looking at the pic, I guess it's been more Cinerator. LOL

So much for a higher pick.

Ha ha. I didn't even notice that myself. Of course I've been alternating shots of Cinerator and Fireball... What a pun, however unintentional. That was funny.

I mean, this season was impressive. I hate that when the rubber meets the road, his coach decided to turn into a pumpkin.

You gotta have more time than that though. Oops. Wrong thread.

Darnold needs to exercise those ghosts right now, otherwise his career will be haunted from now on.

Darnold going Darnold.

No, I've listened to these guys for decades. TB12 is not so much better or worse than any of them. Damn, Darnold just fumbled.

I mean, I don't know what y'all are looking for for. They're not talking politics out there.

Everyone knows what you've said about McMillan. Anyway... Bryce's so-called limitations surely didn't look all that important during his play the latter part of the season. But, keep hating.

I think y'all are being hard on Tom because he's TB12. Sure, he looks a little mannequish in his appearance, and, no, he doesn't have the more animated delivery that Olsen has, but he still drops good tidbits of football knowledge (which is why Olsen and Romo are good). I don't hate him, but he'll likely go all-Raider anyway and be out. Olsen isn't out by any stretch. I've seen him on something.

All I'm saying is that, like every team every year, we can re-judicate every draft, but it's going to take time to actually get a clear picture.

Every time I saw Williams dominating, I think of the possibilities as well. He's not a lock to fall to us though.

We should've taken McConkey over XL. His game would've fit perfectly with Bryce's game, and both are high football IQ guys. But, it's still really too early to be making definitive statements about most of these players in general. You probably want to give it at least a couple of seasons, if not three. And keep in mind that some guys are alwats going to learn quicker, and some positions are simply just easier to learn.

I mean, if that's what you consider "significant." In reference to the WRs, some of these guys are playing because someone is hurt. I've been watching these guys, and though their teams were playing, the only receiver that really made a significant impact is Ladd McConkey. The other guys have been brought along pretty slowly. McMillan obviously had to get more play because of Godwin. The jury is hardly out on any of them, save for McConkey who is obviously the real deal.

Some of you don't seem to understand how horrible a situation Bryce was in last year. You don't appear to fathom the scope. For all intents and purposes, it did absolutely nothing for his development as a pro but set him back. All that being said, I'm giving him a mulligan for that. His rookie year literally was 2023, but his rookie year was effectively 2024. From that perspective, things are not as black and white as you're trying to make it. On an off note, you're proclaiming Bryce will never be a top 20 QB in the near future (if ever for the effect that the next five years would have outside the top 20), but you're already essentially claiming Tet McMillan a top 5 receiver. That's interesting.
