Why can't they just own up to their mistake of drafting Hayden and realize that he's just no good?
hayden will be fine so long as he isn't called upon to play NT.

still should never be started. he wasn't a very high draft pick either. not like they have a lot at stake there.

hayden is only $310,000 this year and a FA next year. not a big deal.

Why did they bother keeping Burton then over Ra'Shon? They obviously knew he was not the answer when we waived Ra'Shon to put him on the practice squad. We got rid of a decent project player for a player we knew we would be trying to replace in a few weeks.

Bit of a head scratcher to waive him for another DT we just acquired. They seem to be getting a bit desperate there, the amount of bodies we have brought in and then discarded is quickly mounting.

In addition, why waive Burton when he was active over Hayden who was not. Just a bit random in my opinion.

He is the only depth we have for the 3 technique. It goes to show how boneheaded this FO was in not getting some depth this off-season behind Kemo. We had a guy that lost weight in the off-season to get quicker in an attempt to be more of a penetration then we put him in a postion that requires strength and size. But they have started to make up for it with all these IMHO great trades.

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By cranky · Posted

      First, am I wrong? I looked back over all his posts here and I didn't see anything positive other than Shough. Second, pretty sure if you had read the post I was responding to, you would have seen CRA made poo personal as well . You just choose to address me instead of him. Not sure why?????

      Give Legette another season?

      By SCMunnerlyn1 · Posted

      I wanted XL but I felt he should have been a 2nd rounder but I understand the logic trading up just to get the option. A safety net for your gamble.    Certainly disappointed with his receivers development but i like his down field blocking and I imagine that's what's keeping him on the field.

      Greg Cosell on Bryce Young

      By cranky · Posted

      Pretty sure it is a given Young lacks typical QB size and strength and he is here simply because his other attributes more than make up for it. My point is not to indicate anyone "settled" for him but rather to remind people that there have been plenty of big, strong QB's that have not lived up to expectations. Jamis Winston, Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, JaMarcus Russel are a few examples. They all have the physical attributes coveted by teams and yet none have had sustained success in the NFL. And yes, there are QBs that do have both but there aren't many and some of the ones still playing were failures with their early teams. Saying Young is a bust simply based upon his size (and I do think it is as simple as that for a few guys around here) is unfair to both him and the team.
