2017 Draft......A+ for CMC


Recommended Posts

Couldn’t have asked for the dominoes to fall any better that first round.

As a bonus the Saints got whamboozled out of drafting Patrick Mahomes just after us. Lattimore is nice but a cornerback isn’t a once in a generation franchise game changer like Mahomes would have been.

That would have seriously BLOWN!  I don't mind KC getting a good quarterback but can you imagine if the Saints nabbed Mahomes......kill me now.

Leonard Fournette : C+  Not saying he is going to turn into being a terrible draft pick but I am glad it ended up being McCaffery for us.  For how we use him, we defiantly got the better guy between the two.  

LF has been somewhat of a headcase, but I will say it's hard to run the ball when you have 8 stacking the box because your alcoholic QB throws like an old woman.

That would have sucked so fuging bad. Imagine Brees to Mahomes. That’s like Favre to Rodgers but even better.

Fournette is a good player but he’s had the chips stacked against him. Hard taking that kind of punishment especially when every defense knows you’re gonna run the poo out of the ball because your QB sucks. Wonder if Foles will bring his philly magic to the Jags. If he does you could see that offense really open up and they could be back in the playoffs this year.

I was hard for LF like I was for Gurley before him, Derrick Henry before him so forth and so on...

Really glad we got Christian.  He's the real deal.  

Thats why my opinions are free and not valuable to a NFL front office.

    • I'm super excited about the guys we're getting back, and fortunately this year, outside of Robert Hunt, we haven't had any season-threatening injuries. Rico has earned the start, but I am excited to have both available.  The team is finally turning into the run-first team Canales said he wanted to be. As for JT Sanders, I think he has lost the most be being out. He is probably our best receiving TE, but with the emergence of Mitchell Evans & with him and Tommy Tremble both absolutely balling in run blocking, it will be hard to fix something that isn't broken. I'm hoping Turk Wharton can help with our pass rush. We really havent gotten to see him much due to injuries, but we desperately need anyone to provide some pass rush juice, which is what he was brought to do. I'm the most excited about Jalen Coker returning. Theilen may have been the most clutch last year, but I've watched a lot of film, and Coker was the most consistent WR we had when he was out there last year.  I think he can be an ideal #2 to Tmac. While Coker doesn't have the raw athleticism XL does, his route running, savvy, and overall football IQ simply make him better.  I think with the fact Coker can play both outside and in the slot will give our pass game more versatility.  We have been running a lot of 2 TE sets, and I think Tmac & Coker should be the primary WRs for 12 personnel. The other WRs (XL, Tremayne, Renfrow, & Horn) all have roles, but I dont think any of them can fully replace what Coker can do. I do think Renfrow will be inactive this week if everyone is healthy bc of how valuable Tremayne is for ST and as a run blocker. So happy that we are playing meaningful football heading into November. We are still almost certainly a year away, but we are absolutely moving in the right direction     
    • Better than a fragile starter, though
