Oh....it really is JUST a list. :eyeroll: I thought there was gonna be a point made. Haha

They say art, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder...the same can be said of lists.

As you cast your eye upon this list, what jumps out at you?

A lot of QBs who are better than our current one. You could just actually state your point instead of playing the internet equivalent of the "I Spy" children's game.

You're overlooking two big factors on your list while touting the lack of rings though. 1. Top picks are almost universally drafted into awful team situations. 2. A lot of these guys are still young and have a lot of football left to play.

I've drawn no conclusions nor am I touting anything. 

It's simply a list that looks interesting and I was curious what others might think about it. 

That said...that your immediate and first written thought was to denigrate Teddy -- is telling.

Calling every race baiter out. Racists are the assholes that preach about it daily. Some of us just like football and like to share our opinions. I'm out for a few days. Cant believe that I come to talk football and the NERD crew turns it all to race. Later bitches!

    • I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.
    • From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"
    • Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
