2016 NFL Draft Round 2 General Discussion


Jeremy Igo

Recommended Posts

I don't mind the pick.... just not in the 2nd round.  DG has done this before.  He did this with Shaq, honestly.   They may both be good, but we took people earlier than we could have got them.  This could be Kugbilla all over again.

I know that you sometimes see small school prospects go on to have great careers, but let's keep in mind that this was Samford's schedule this past season, and somehow Bradberry got only 2 interceptions:

DATE                         OPPONENT                          
Sept. 3                         Central Arkansas                    
Sept. 12                       Florida A&M                          
Sept. 19                       Chattanooga*                          
Sept. 26                       at Louisville                           
Oct. 10                        at VMI*                                  
Oct. 17                        The Citadel*                           
Oct. 24                        at Western Carolina*             
Oct. 31                        Furman*                                 
Nov. 7                         Clark-Atlanta                          
Nov. 14                       at Wofford*                            
Nov. 21                       at Mercer*

Did you ever consider that maybe he was shutting down opposing wr's and not getting many balls thrown his way?

disagree- bc Kugbila was bad- so while I agree we may have drafted him early than we needed to Kugbila is a bad comparison 

we have no idea how good Bradberry will be, and Shaq looks awesome in limited time

    • Yep. It was an obvious red flag that a lot of people ignored. The results/scores in preseason don’t matter, but individual performance very much does and individually, we looked like the least talented team in the league and it carried over.
    • Sorry, but in 2015, we didn’t look like poo to the extent of 2023. People who said it’s just preseason were completely wrong. Simple as that. 2015 was a veteran lead team. It was Cam’s 5th year and Luke’s 4th. Even our OL was 80% the same (added Oher) as the great run to finish 2014 with a playoff win. That year can be labeled as preseason doesn’t matter because I’m sure we rested vets and well, Ron/Mike weren’t putting in special plays, etc. I absolutely don’t recall a bunch of us saying that Turner was getting killed on one on ones or that Luke was completely out of position or that Norman was hurt again but probably fine. The only thing that was right about the 2023 preseason is that the minority of us who saw it, were correct that we A) should have been making Young and others play 100% of the reps as there was nothing to hide and B) the preseason means nothing was a bunch of BS trying to stay optimistic when it was obvious that we had way less good talent than the rest of the NFL.
    • You are telling me Paul Maurice is a better coach than Rod??? Yes!!!  It’s because he plays a better system and has a better goalie.   Our system sucks in playoffs and he refuses to roll with Koochie. Dallas cowboys level poo
