At first look...Jarren Reed looks like he's got some explosivty off the start and flashes being an outstanding bull-rusher. 

I don't know what round he's projected to be in but if he makes it to our third or 4th, he could be a guy who could immediately get in the rotation.

Reed is a late first to second round guy. Outside shot he falls to the 3rd but no way he is there at our pick in the 3rd

Under Armour really failed with these tights. I've seen way more butts than I care to on Sunday morning and definitely way more dicks.

Lol, i was thinking the same thing earlier.  I never recalled anyone having to pull up their tights in years prior.  This year, it seemed like every other participant had to pull them up after running, but then the dick falling out on live tv was the final straw, lol.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Yeah, these things are at least two sizes too small.

Yea not very much star power in this draft. Especially for skill positions. Probably one of the least talented classes of the last 10 years.

We can't say that.  We know there aren't many workout warrior underwear Olympic superstars, but there very well could be and likely will be some special football players come out of this class.

Thanks for clearing that up for me. I wouldn't be mad if we drafted him as keeping both Star and Short is gonna be next to impossible.

it would also give him at least a season to get coached-up and comfortable with our system.

Maybe but IMO in 3 years we will be saying exactly what I said in my prior post. It's ok if you believe that to be wrong everyone has an opinion.

There are multiple future All-Pros and usually an HOFer or two in every draft class, you just gotta find them.  They aren't necessarily the guys blowing away the combine and at the top of every draft board.

Yeah, 2013 is one of the worst drafts ever and there are still quite a few true studs from that class. KK, Star, Richardson, Ansah, Hopkins, Lane Johnson, Eifert, Trufant, Mathieu, Leveon Bell and Jamie Collins.

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
