That draft class is certainly a perfect example of why you never go into a draft desperate at a position group. He threw mud at that CB wall praying for something to stick. At least we got Bradberry out of that mud slinging.

wrong draft

 

the draft you are talking about is the Bradberry, Worley, Sanchez draft

Elder was part of the 2017 CMC class with Samuel, Moton, Armah. It actually may have been Gettleman's best draft in terms of productive players, especially if we'd kept Butker. Hall was a bust and Elder was certainly hampered by missing his entire rookie year. But to hit on 5 of 7... Very nice. Especially given the QUALITY of players. CMC is already elite, Samuel and Moton also could be elite players.

Elliot was actually the highest graded corner (per off) on the Bucs last year...mind you, that's not saying much. 

The writing may be on the wall with Elder... The question is, do we want to give up on him before he's had a full chance to develop. This is basically his second season, since he was injured his entire first. My thing is, I can't say I remember ever seeing or hearing him flash in a game or practice, although I could be wrong. When he was drafted I figured at the very least we'd have a punt returner....nah.

5 of 7 is an insanely productive draft. And I forgot about Hall, would have liked to see if he could have produced in this 3-4.

I was mixing Elder up with Sanchez. Ouch, so one season after spamming three picks at CBs we had to go and draft another one. Ultimately, it looks likely that only one of those four picks will work out.

    • It would depend on how we lost... If we lose a bunch of 17-13 . 20-7 type games where the defense plays well and offensively Bryce is sh***TING the bed...then he wouldn't get fired.  If we are losing 40-9, 38-14 type games..then yeah it's a possibility.   Couple that with our tough schedule.. if we show well in lets say half those games.. win either Seattle or New England game, at least 1 win vs division oponents.. he's good.  So imo.. to get fired he needs to : Loose badly against the top tier teams ie Blown out Show no progress offensively from last year. Show an unwillingness to bench Bryce again if he is horrible over multiple games ..  Get swept by the Saints again.  
    • I think he's gone, and rightfully so, if he turns in another losing record. The "talented roster," regardless of how true or not, is a double-edged sword. If the roster is so much improved now from 202X then why are you still producing losing seasons? On one hand, maybe that's what needs to happen. Have the GM hire the new coach, and then have the new coach pick his guy to run his system. That is typically how it works in the NFL. Not the forced inheritance deal we have had in place.
    • Hinging on Brooks to be our spark...be good if it happens... but not holding my breath....RB next draft. Morgan gambled...it would be a 2 year payoff if thing happened.
