Per J.Person. "They where playing well before injuries". Take it for what it's worth. I thought Chandler had a chance to improve after camp but he hasn't and Bell is Bell. Maybe he should ask Cam about how well they have been playing.

I don't get you guys. We have no backup tackles and can't afford to get a good one. Do you expect him to keep shitting on them in pressers? What is that going to achieve? It will do nothing but break the teams morale. You put a brave face on it and when you have options you move on.

Wow. I don't know what to say. All I know is that as a manager, if I don't bold my team accountable, at some point I will be held accountable. I hope that holds true in this case as well.

You don't fire a staff member without an adequate replacement. That's bad management. Also you don't continually deride an employee for bad performance. None of us would enjoy working for a boss who is telling us everyday we suck.

These isn"t pee wee league football. Grown men making mega bucks that should be held accountable. At least don't BS and try to hide the obvious and say they are playing well....how about maybe "room for improvememt?

This isn't some office job. Even these UDFA's are paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to play this game. The "he's a nice guy though" reasoning for keeping clearly underperforming players around is a big part of why we've never had back to back winning seasons before.

"KB needed to make that catch" - everyone flips out about calling him out.

"Bell and Chandler are being hampered by injuries and we have no back ups" - unacceptable to stand up for them.

 

Ron can only do so much with what he has... Dave can only get so many players at a time... Players can only be so good... Coaches can only teach so much. We are what we are.

Someone mentioned lining the TEs up in the backfield on obvious pass situations. What about Chandler? He is supposed to be super athletic for his size and obviously isn't a stranger to position changes. Why not line him up back there for pass protection or even as a normal fullback? Other than screens we aren't using the backs a safety valves anyways.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
