On the positive side, the guys available when we drafted at 28 shouldn't have been first rounders regardless of our need for them to be. It's the whole dropoff thing Gettleman mentioned.

I hope OT is as deep next year as WR was this year.

I'm not sure how many other guys will eventually rise up, but as of right now I truly believe that it will be a much better class of OTs next year.

My favorite "Cameron Erving", Cedric Ogbuehi, Brandon Scherff, and La'el Collins. All of those guys could've came out this year and been 1st rounders.

Well thats good to hear. I hope we pick up Collins since he has played with Turner.

    • Yooooooooo... WTF is this hairline bro??? It's OVER! Shave it off my man!
    • He's a free agent next year actually. Wish we had the balls to bring him in to compete, looking around the league though he might get a legit starting offer or at least an offer to compete somewhere that he would control his own destiny. 
    • I don't love Bryce Young.  I DO understand his abilities as a QB. I dont expect him to do things that are beyond that. I also dont hold it against him.  The ability to throw 40 yards in with the velocity to take your receivers hands off, doesn't have the impact on the game as people think it does.  I think it's a pretty silly thing to even attempt to debate, when the ones crying about it doesn't add context.   Bryce can and does throw deep.  His last TD to T-Mac was a thing of beauty,   and the ball placement was incredible,  especially for the distance of the throw.  I get it y'all want to talk all day about his physical limitations, rather than look at what he does, and does well.  We wouldn't be playing meaningful football in December without him.  That is a fact.  Bryce doesn't fit the mold of my type of QB, but I don't hold that against him. That is beyond stupid.
