So keeping RIVERA, and firing GMan, may be better for the team long term interest and finally snagging that Lombardi??

 

Semaj, I usually agree with a lot of your post (I think). But with this one, I have to wonder. :startle: Lol

Well I guess if I was honest I would have to say that I don't believe that this is a super bowl team.  But ya never know.  Thats why they play the games eh.

That to. Lol

 

However, I was making fun of the notion of you placing Rivera before GMan.

 

I know GMan has a lot to prove after this year. However, Rivera's already shown us he's not an NFL caliber coach IMHO; unless you feel he is.

No I agree with you 100 percent.  Rivera is not an NFL head coach. The jury is still out on G-man.  I can't make a call till after this off season.  He is 1-2 going into his 3rd season.  We need to see what he does with the cap space once he gets it.  I will either fully buy into G-man after this off-season or I will have to decide how much is to blame on the mess that he inherited, thus being ok with a 4th season.  I can't imagine giving him a 5th if he doesn't show what he has after the 4th.  Honestly, the adjustments that he makes or doesn't make after this $ hit Storm should tell us what we got.

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
