and if Leonard is still on the board? I just have a HUGE issue not going offense in top 10 if the playmakers are there

Don't you know that all the players will be taken by our pick? ;)

If Allen improved our pass rush, and helped to put an attitude in our defense, I'm cool with that.

This is still a very deep draft for RBs, WRs and TEs.

I wouldn't.

You do realize Allen is really good right? 2nd best player behind Garrett imho from the draft.

Another DT in the first? Sure why not. Gettleman hell just triple dip on Safteys and DLine and draft an RB in round 7 wouldn't suprise me in the fuging slightest 

     If he were a DT, this post might make sense. He's a DE that can push inside on passing downs. Something we absolutely need.

If he does, it will be the quickest selection in Gettleman history.

Naw, I think he'll take the full ten minutes and savor each sweet second knowing that he's going to get Allen at number eight.

Anyone who thinks that Fournette and a second round DE would help this team more than Allen and a second round RB needs to go watch the LSU/Alabama games again and see which player shined.

Will be interesting to see what rankings indicate post Combine.  Most team boards will change a little, but all the draft sites will change a lot as will Huddle opinions.

Allen as the measurables to be a 34 DE.  Not sure how quick he is for the outside pass rush in the 43 however.  We will see.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
