It was not what I expected but what do I know. I am not sold on Oher at LT just as I was not comfortable with BBell  but it may work out fine.My guess is why take LT unless you are comfortable they can come in and play versus taking one just because you need one.

Ace still praising Hurney...jeez....

That's the problem with most of you people here. I'm not praising Hurney. I'm not a even a Hurney supporter. My beef is that every praise of Gettleman seems to come with a shot at Hurney and it's sad. I'm sure Gettleman wants to be his own man and is fully capable of a compliment that doesn't include a shot at Hurney. I simply pointed out that Gettleman inherited a pretty good core group of players. Not once did I say that it was all you needed to win like Mr.Scot wants to falsely state. Most new GMs walk into situations with a Geno Smith at QB, Brandon Weeden, or some other bum. Gettleman's biggest job was already done for him, finding a franchise QB. Pretty much all I'm saying, Ol Scott wants to turn it into me saying Hurney good and Gettleman Bad, but I'm sure he doesn't wake up and tell his wife, You're beautiful honey, much better looking than the last woman I was fuging. Can we simply not say Gettleman is doing a good job without knocking the man that brought this teams Captains to the team? Obviously not

I will continue to bash Hurney for years, I did it when he was foolishly extending DWill and Stew, along with many others, and I will do it for as long as some of the things he did continue to haunt this franchise.

 

However I do get what you are saying, Hurney doesn't have to be mentioned, but it's fun for folks, myself included to notice just how different the team is being run.

Funny thing...

 

Gettleman walked into the best core of players of any GM in NFL history.

 

Musta been somebody else, right?

That comparison is incorrect. Shaq, who we didn't trade for, would still be considered a "quarter". Same would be said of Daryl and Mayo. So, it would be 3 quarters and 6 dimes.

Which is worth more than 5 quarters.

 

 

You have a way with figures. Do you happen to have change for a dollar. :)

I would have gotten that if I had of read this before you answered this and then I would have been the one that got the praise and glory but because I didn't I had to eat a treet meat samich for late lunch and early dinner but that is the way it is because I didn't waste my time on here because I was wanting a beer.

Appreciate the write up.  First three picks are solid and should contribute greatly this season.

 

What I notice on the two 5th rounders was Mayo was defensive player of the year for his conference and Artis-Payne was SEC 1st Team RB.   To me this says they were very productive and the top of their group in their perspective conference.

 

Can't asked for much more than that in the latter portions of the 5th round.

      The only thing I said was he was part of the staff that made part of the decisions, and that I am judging the decisions made by that group as a whole. As assistant GM, you can pretty much guarantee his input held more sway than an intern or the guy that takes coffee requests. Fitterer didn't operate in a vacuum. Neither does Morgan now. While Fitterer did have the ultimate decision, to say that Dan had no input in ranking boards, evaluating FAs, trade offers or anything else would be asinine. We all know he did. Otherwise what the hell was his job as assistant GM? He wouldn't have been kept for 3 years if he was arguing every decision Scott ever made.    And the actual quote was "Morgan has done a bang up job in the draft and FA. Compared to what the last guy did, he is kicking ass and taking names." So is XL kicking ass and Brooks taking names from last years draft or did I get it backwards? We took Wallace over Payton Wilson because he was an injury risk after trading up for a RB with a torn ACL? Which one of the kicking ass and taking names was that?  Maybe we should review the thousands of gameday posts calling for XL to get off the field because he's a bust and can't catch a cold. We could review the posts about Brooks but... And Wilson. He's at 118 tackles this season vs 36 for Wallace.  I gave credit to Dan for a good draft this year. But I'm also not ignoring last year's draft either since he did that one after the last guy too.  That's not a strawman.

      And then, in week 18, we can take Mayfield out of the game and whoop Bridgewater's @$$ for good measure! Let the former QB revenge train roll on!!

      If we keep our guards in tact ($$$) and go with Mays at C, some OT depth would be nice. I think we should be happy about CB with Thornton's development (pre injury) and Smith Wade. I think Ransom is developing nicely, but I would like to see a FS type for situations. We suck at ILB and Edge (as a whole). We should be OK at RB.  I hope we sign Dowdle to a short contract. QB?  There are signs of hope and development.  (I don't like our backup QB) TE?  Good draft for TE, but I think we are developing with Evans, Sanders, and Tremble. WR?  A #2 with Coker and Horn in the slot.  XL?  What is that? We should be good in 2026. Morgan does more than draft.  Free agency has been strong too.  (Just emptying my brain on your comment--sorry)
