Saw this tweet regarding Turner working out DJ Moore...

Kinda reminded me that, while I do believe Norv Turner is going to be a better gameday coach than Mike Shula was, it doesn't stop there.

Turner has a resume' that includes a lot of successful offenses not just because he knows how to scheme and adjust. It's also because he knows personnel. Specifically, how to tell what their strengths and weaknesses are and how to best use them in our offensive attack.

His input on the scouting process should make it better on the offensive side of the ball. And frankly, we could probably use some improvement on that front.

Guess you could say having Turner could be a benefit year round rather than just during the season.

I really like this kid. Reminds me of a anquan bolden. 

However, I really feel like there is a potential smokescreen here. We have been using a lot of resources to check out WRs.... 

does anyone know when Calvin Ridley will be on display? I’d like to see who of our scouts attend that.

If we are taking him with our first pick hopefully we trade back in the first or top of the second and pick up an extra pick because he will be available beyond #24

I dunno, it seems like there are a lot of teams looking at WR in the back half of the 1st round, and if he runs solid routes as a rookie, he could get snapped up by one of those teams.

That is true--I have seen some websites that have Moore rated over Ridley after Ridley's poor combine.

      Just another 1st round QB that never paid off for the team that drafted them or traded for them. It's been like this since the SB began. 36 QBs have now won the SB & only 13 of them have been 1st rounders winning with their original team. Namath 1968, Griese 1972, Bradshaw 1974, McMahon 1985, Simms 1986, Aikman 1992, Elway 1997, Roethlisberger 2005, P.Manning 2006, E.Manning 2007, Rodgers 2010, Flacco 2012, & Mahomes 2019. Only 3 have taken longer than 5 seasons as the starter to win a SB.  4  6  5  4  6  4  15  2  9  4  3  5  2 [the years it takes for these 1st round QBs] 5  1  4  1  3  1  1  2  3  4  [10 of the 36 have won a chip with their 1st team that haven't been drafted in the 1st round. These are the years it took them as a starter] What stands out? Only 2 of these QBs have lost their first championship appearance. Elway took 4 years as a 1st rounder & Hurts took 2 years as a 2nd rounder. Of the 10 non-1st round QBs, 2 are 2nd rounders, 3 are 3rd rounders, 5 are 6th rounders or later. Please stop wasting time on drafting 1st round QBs with such a high failure rate. The remaining 13 QBs are traded or free agent signings. Stafford, Favre, Young, Williams and Dawson are the 5 trades. Peyton Manning & Tom Brady also won for teams as free agents on a short stay as well as being drafted. The lesson here is don't waste your franchise on farming up 1st rounders for the league, and steer clear of trading for a franchise QB. Stick to finding that championship QB by drafting them outside of the 1st round or through free agency.

      I wake up this morning full of rage towards Ronald McDonald Rivera / Gettleman / Hurney

      I lost most of the respect I had for Fox in 2010. He should have resigned if he hated the job that much. Instead he stuck for his paycheck and let stuff go to hell.    I burned out on Ron too but my deal breaker issue with him was away from football and after he was gone from the Panthers. He may have been out of his depth but never quit on us.

      From where they were one year ago to now, pretty incredible. I mean, say what you want about Vrabel he is no Jerrod Mayo.
