Peat looked so out of shape at the combine...that's a huge concern for me. How do you show up to the biggest job interview of your life, at time when you should be in the best shape of your life, and get winded so easily...

 

He lacks stamina. It shows up on tape too. I think it's a result of him having a different body composition than most males. His body stores fat in his legs rather than his gut so everytime he moves he has to expend more energy lugging those big tree trunk legs around.

That'd probably bring the idiotic "Gettleman wants to sabotage Cam" silliness up again.

I wonder how many of the 'need more weapons' crowd understand that a dominant defense actually is a weapon for a young QB, and oftentimes can be their best friend. Ditto solid special teams.

Defense isn't just about preventing the other team from scoring. It's also about getting the ball back in the hands of your offense. Likewise special teams is about putting your offense in the best position possible.

Ya gotta look at the whole picture.

Yep, it works both ways. We need a good defense/STs to give is better field position and keep the opposing team from scoring, but we need to give him weapons so our offense can score. I really want an offensive pick. Infact, I would love if the first three picks fell OT, WR, then RB. (Or some variation) However, we don't need to reach either. We need to get the best guy. (Within reason)

I agree, it's great to have a great defense and ST, but the offense needs help. I'm tired of our defense doing so much and holding teams like the Seahawks, but our offense can't put any numbers on the board no matter how good our field position is.

I tend to agree with you.  However, defensive tackle is down there with quarterback and middle linebacker of positions we absolutely do not need.  At least not in the first round.  I like Goldman, but not when we already have two young, very good (with the potential to become great very, very soon) defensive tackles already on the roster.  We are not in a position where we should be making picks like that - we simply have too many other needs on the roster that a luxury pick like that would not be beneficial.  It doesn't make sense as a current need nor would it make sense going forward considering our youth and talent at the position.

 

I wouldn't be opposed to a defensive tackle in the second round, but there will be several better options in the first.

 

Like you, I wouldn't be mad if we went defense.  Just not at defensive tackle.  That would be moronic.  I mean, of course if a player like Leonard Williams fell to us... that changes things, but that isn't happening.

Agree we have two great DTs, but the guys behind them are getting up there.

Would you disagree that it's very possible a defensive tackle could indeed be the BPA at 25?

Eh, it's possible depending on who you ask.  There are a couple of DTs (sans Leonard Williams, because there is a snowballs chance in hell that would happen unless unexpected character or health issues arise) that, if they fell to our pick at 25, could be argued as BPA (not sure I would agree, but alas).  However, the question truly is... are they good enough to the point that the difference between them and the next prospect is large enough to warrant drafting them despite our fortunes at the position currently?  The answer to that is no.  

 

I'm not saying I would be outraged if we took Goldman.  Me personally, I don't get up in arms about that kind of stuff.  I just think there will be better options at 25, and far better options when you consider the situation.

Fair enough.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By JawnyBlaze · Posted

      It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed.

      I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
