Whole organization is behind the curve we had the opportunity to draft Hunter Henry who would be a perfect for this scheme. Also Sandland could develop into a Jordan Reed type of player if given the proper conditioning & coaching.

This was the offense we ran with Chud.

Were we ahead of the curve then?

hindsight 20/20 and all that but sure would love to have Hunter Henry and G-Reg running those 2 TE's sets

You don't need hindsight for that , just look at the personnel and the philosophy of your team and it was easy call to draft Henry. DG emphasizes the DTs  2 much.

Ehh I don't blame DG for picking up BPA, especially if Short walks. But we could use a TE who can block better than Olsen and catch and run routes better than Dickson/Simonson

God forbid what if lost Olsen to Injury then what.  DG should focus on having a balanced team, if Short walks then you address the DT in that years draft , but the way it seems like DG made up his mind on letting him walk.

BPA is largely a farse when it comes to draft time.

GMs draft on need and preference more than anything.   There is no universal BPA board.  Every team's BPA is dictated by need and preference

2 TE sets are magical when properly implemented.  You have to have 2 very special guys to pull it off.  Had we drafted Henry, that could have been a possibility but I don't think I'd really trust Shula to implement it effectively.

    • It's not impossible to go from worst to first.  We kept Evero because anyone in there right mind knew our defense was destroyed by injuries, not the scheme.  Evero has been given a plethora of talent between free agency and the draft, not to mention getting DB back. I fully expect our defense to be very good.  I have no reason to think Jones would say something like that unless he truly felt like that.   
    • We would’ve played Florida and lost in the 1st instead of the 3rd round.  Montreal would have been the 8 seed.
    • I can't get behind a purely subjective re-draft as a method of defining "top-10 QB" status. That invites bias based on vibes/hypotheticals and can ignore actual on-field performance. You and others have said that Bryce has to be a top-10 QB to justify the pick. That's a high bar, which I'm not against, but we need a clear, consistent way to measure it. When I bring up metrics that Bryce has registered in the top-10 in like BTT%, P2S ratio, catchable deep ball rate, etc... they're waved off as either irrelevant or the expected baseline performance. Meanwhile, volume stats like passing yards or win-loss records, both of which depend heavily on roster talent, health, and coaching, are treated as definitive. That's where the inconsistency kicks in. If no performance metric ever counts in his favor and the answer is always going to be "he should be doing that," then we're not evaluating him... we're just holding him to a curve he can't win against. If this is really about performance standards, then let's define them. But if it's just about confirming prior takes based on height and weight, then let's call it what is it and stop pretending that this is a football analysis discussion.
