Look, I really want a shut down corner too but we can't just throw our picks out there and hope to get lucky and hit on one. There are OTs available that can start for us and we gotta go OT for safety -- after the KB risky pick (which I love by the way).

If we need an OT then they will get one from somewhere

Because Ealy was graded as a first round pick. Also, you do realize that either Hardy or CJ won't be here next year, right? Rookie DEs have a hard time progressing in the NFL. Giving Ealy a year before he takes the reigns helps us AND him.

 

along with most positions in the nfl,they all take time except for rb

 

the pick is premature this is assuming hardy and cj play hardball

 

missed out on a chance to help the offense or hell help the secondary out

You aren't freaking out that Bryon Bell and some random other guy are going to be our tackles?

DG says consistency will make an offensive line. He's not going to blow it up. Besides, Nate knows how the d line thinks and Bell is left handed! Not worried at all!

If you have watched Bells career of people blowing by him.....you should be worried. Left handiness doesn't suddenly make him athletic on that side

Go look at our starting CBs, OL, WRs, etc last year. Tell me if we had scrubs starting last year....

No names? Yeah. Luke and Cam are the MVPs of our team and not the highest paid!

Remember when Luke sent Beason packing? Ealy could do that to that to CJ or Hardy. Happens every year in training camps

You must be new at sarcasm.

My bad. Yes, I don't always catch sarcasm as well in written form on the huddle. There are many things said completely serious that I think should be sarcasm

I thought the left handed part gave it away. That one's on me!

I didn't feel the need to name all our scrubs last year. Our RT, RG, CB, CB (both spots outside when Capt goes to nickel), WR2, WR3, etc.

Those are scrubs.

and Beason was coming off a HUGE injury. That is why I endorsed drafting Luke bc I thought Beason couldn't return to form.....which he didn't. That isn't be case with the DEs.

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

      Right, so basically what I said in my first post about this last night. Tepper needs to use that big wallet of his in one of the few ways it can be used in the NFL given the cap.   Give Scourton a bigger signing bonus but not a fully guaranteed deal. Everyone wins in that scenario as if Scourton is smart and hires good money people, he'll take that bigger signing bonus and use it to make more money in the end over the next 4 years than if he just had his fully guaranteed deal and a smaller signing bonus.

      It is all confusing and layered. SB is the cash you get very soon within weeks or in simple terms, its what you get to sign the paper work. Players and agents can agree on contract but what to "wait" to sign......teams don't like that cause you can "Carlos Boozer" yourself. In order to get that ink dry, while keeping the contract the same, portion it as a bonus to "sign" and get the funds with ________ .   * But Ive seen worded contracts that split the SB or a 20% to a later date. The beans counters can fill in the details about why certain dates are better and save the team money.. Theres tricks to the trade and accounting is full of them.    Ugh another big layer, is SB can be used to manipulate cap and players. Ill try to give a example that makes enough sense. Believe it or not having a owner like Tepper is a cheat code for this. He has cash in hand, where as Mark Davis had problem making pay roll and had to move the team to Vegas....... Tepper can give you 100,000,000 SB right now and the team can spread out the cap hit. Another owner doesn't have or want to give the player 100,000,000 in cash, but offered the same guaranteed contract in roster bonuses fully guaranteed over the next few years........ Which one do you want??? Everyone wants the money now, not before another inflation waves hits in 2 years. So it does 'pay" to have a owner like tepper that's able to have real cash on hand, while it also works GREAT for cap help. Heres a good video, if you can stand coked up pat and mask look-a-like AJ
