I don't care who we get in the second round to a certain extent of course. Just happy that for once since Cam has been here we invested a first round pick on a offensive skill player. Was getting really tired of scrubs like Armanti Edwards, Pilares, Brandon Lafell, Dwayne Jarret, Joe Adams from years during and before Cam arrived. I know you can get good receivers in later rounds. But for once could we at least try in the first round. That wish became a reality today. Now I feel we can really access how good Cam can or will be in the future. We drafted a guy that has the same build of a Brandon Marshall, Larry Fitzgerald, Calvin Johnson, Alshon Jeffrey, etc. He may not reach their levels, but feel like it is worth the risk. I am tired of some people saying Cam needs to make his receivers better. At some point we have to understand that some receivers or players in general are not just good regardless of how hard they try (Armanti Edwards).

I mentioned this before, but Turner did not give up a single sack last year.

 

I don't give a damn whether it's at JV or the NFL level, that is an impressive accomplishment.

 

I might be one of the few but I think this kid can play LT in the NFL.

 

Has some of the quickest feet in the draft. Kid can easily play LT. Has a mean street to boot.

Been preaching about Turner for a while, hopefully he makes it to #60. Needs to get into an NFL conditioning program and build his lower body strength some, but he's an aggressive run blocker who can kick step better than the majority of OT in this draft minus Greg Robinson and Matthews.

      TBH, these are the kind of players that get weeded out of professional sports pretty quickly. Also, CMC is not that guy. There is zero indication that he isn't competitive.

      Teddy Checkdown in trouble

      I like the free agency. It actually helps basically all schools across the board. Pretty much only ancient HC's and/or HC's that haven't been able to adjust have been complaining about the free agency. Your fortunes can be made or broken every offseason. It's not like before where a bad recruiting class or two meant multiyear purgatory.  I will never understand all the bellyaching about the NIL. If you want to talk about what ruined college athletics, it has been naked greed. Conference expansions for TV revenue, ever skyrocketing AD and facilities costs and now the attempts to permanently ruin the postseasons(football and basketball).  All the kids did was get a very well deserved piece of a very, very, VERY broken pie.

      Scourton isn't signed (& apparently it's a thing)

      Nobody is saying they don't count against the cap, because yes, they technically do count against the cap as it's money the team is paying and it needs to be accounted for. But what you're not grasping it seems is that if a player gets $10 million guaranteed in their contract, whether they get literally $0 as a signing bonus or $8 million as a signing bonus, it doesn't change the overall cap hit of the contract, because cap hits are about the guaranteed money, not how much is paid up front. The only thing that how much is paid up front changes, is how the cap hit can be spread out amongst the years. So yes, technically there could end up being a slightly bigger cap hit in year 3 and 4 due to a bigger signing bonus, but if that is the case, it also means there will be a lesser cap hit in years 1 and 2 than there would have been with a smaller bonus.  But over the length of the contract, the size of the signing bonus has literally zero affect on the overall cap hit of the contract, because THAT part of it is 100% about the guaranteed money and nothing else.
