It’s time to man up in the draft again.

This team has become very passive since the failed Edwards and the great spinner at end himself. While we have seen some great returns at other positions letting the draft come to us, teams that wait on pass rushers normally don’t have a good pass rush. If u want a stud you have to be aggressive, they don’t last.

look at the saints, everyone thought they were crazy for moving so many picks to get Davenport, and while he is hurt at the moment he has been productive and gives them a young piece at a premium position. Teams like the patriots who trade back are fine if they want win with offense but do they have a watt,Donald,clowney, or anyone that demands attention? Nope. Because pass rushers bosa and all don’t fall.

You have to go get yours. Moore and Donate have been great for us, but I would be lying if I wasn’t yelling at the tv for us to trade up for Derwin James as he fell farther and farther. We can’t keep plugging in 38 year old Adams and 38 year old peppers and saying,we will get one next year when he falls into our lap at the 24th pick.

We're almost forced into using our 1st on a DL. Fortunately, this might be the strongest DL draft in recent memory. 

Before you congratulate the Saints on giving up two 1sts for Davenport, let's see what they look like post-Brees because they gave up some primo assets that could've been used to secure his successor.

I think they think Hill is his sucessor in the short term. he is already taking snaps out of brees hands.

Funny thing is outside samuel, cmc, and moore most of of resources have been going to the defensive side of the ball. I think they have all been bad like butler, shaq, hall and so on. 

Yup. The problem hasn't been a lack of picks on the defensive side. The problem is Gettleman drafted a ton of busts.

    • Damn Logan Jones had a good day too. Was high on him coming in as he anchored that top Iowa line and is a fire plug inside. He's gonna be 25 to start the season so maybe he slips into the 4th but I doubt it, even if C isn't a premium position. His play on the field was top notch and the combine boosted it again. Arm length is about the only knock. But guy is plug and play at C.   This is a loaded class at C. Need to grab one. 
    • Bryce will be permanently replaced by a draft pick. There's not another Sam Darnold out there to save us. Tepper is going to see this throw because he dumped Mayfield and Darnold too soon. He's going to give it 1 more year before he will sign off on dumping another 1st round pick qb. Thats the cold hard truth of it. It doesn't mean we can't get younger and much better at the backup position. 
    • Maybe I should have used a different word and saved that for me. I want someone that has something impressive about them.  Someone that has potential to supplant a guy who is producing 25th best type of numbers. 22nd, 27th all that bottom third neighborhood.  I don’t know where that will come from it just can’t be from even a 4th round pick this year IMO. Unless FA is crazy productive.    I’ll give Bryce a better than bottom rating for his playoff game. Well above low twenties. But at least half of his games were bottom third level. Probably 2/3 to 3/4 of them were.
