Dave Gettleman is quietly putting together a better draft than last year.

Sorry Gettleman doubters, this year's draft has been pretty genius. 

 

The NFL gives him 9 draft picks, but thanks to last year he really doesn't need that many. Solution? Turn the 9 picks into 5 picks and target your guys. Address areas of need (WR, Tackle) but also draft a guy that will change the entire defense for you in Shaq. And he STILL has 2 fifth rounders to select. 

 

It is like watching Michelangelo in very high coaching shorts paint the Sistine Chapel ceiling.

Our good late round and UDFA picks last year really helped us out, giving us the ability to do that.  I'm really beginning to like the depth everywhere on our team sans offensive line and safety.

I'm thankful that someone else sees the brilliance in this draft. Gettleman has earned the right to take risks like this.

    • Me, I'm sick of WWE channel hopping their PLEs and shows. Netflix now with Raw. USA still has Smackdown but you can't get it with Roku if you don't also have cable. Then they went from all the PLEs on Peacock to ESPN+ which required upgrading your Disney+ package. Then they frikkin' move Saturday Night Main Event with John Cena's retirement match back over to frikkin' Peacock, which we'd just cancelled two months prior because no PLEs there anymore. And there are fewer, but longer matches and its the same danged stories again and again. Rematch after rematch after rematch between PLEs. Fewer matches, fewer wrestlers, more promos (of lesser quality) and less action.  It just seems like it's all fillers and re-runs. I'm tired of Cody Rhodes. I'm tired of Jey Uso. I'm tired of the two Brons. Shuffle the deck a bit guys, this game's getting stale.
    • Chuba was 3 yards behind the 3 gap. He was lined up weak offset I. It was a 33 dive. Chuba needed to power through off of Ekwonu's block and slip off into the 5 gap where the Tremble had the lane sealed and Rick pulled the LB out of the 5 gap. Here's a visual if you need proof. Chuba did a jump cut laterally to the 2 gap on the right side with unblocked defenders crashing down and went airborne.   This is a 33 dive that should have been slipped off the block into the 5 gap. Chuba lacked vision, but you can see Rico and Bryce staring at the intended running lane sealed off by Tremble and Ekwonu. He should have read Ekwonu's block. The blocking and misdirection is NOT set up for the right side. The play worked. Chuba failed to execute on this play. Trust who you want to, but I wouldn't suggest you argue with the video. Anyone telling you this was drawn up to go right with the blocking did not analyze it. They are correct it should have been a called dive, and it was a called dive.  This was a weak offset I bringing Tremble in motion from the right to the left.
