Matt Rhule on Jaycee Horn - Why he is the best fit

Reading the game threads last year,  it was non stop our secondary sucks, more pass rush would help.   We can't stop anyone blahhhhh.  Which was true at times. 

We draft someone who overwhelmingly makes our secondary better which helps our pass rush. 

Great pick Rhule

Wrong, it was non-stop Bridgewater sucks, and 'we're going to win 5 games and be out of the quarterback picture'. They were dead on, and the 'steady hands' were so wrong that they hid 8 games into the season and only crawled out a few months into spring.

Going on record - I’m good with the pick. Do y’all remember how absolutely atrocious this defense was on third down last season? We could not get off the field. Corner one of the most important positions in the NFL today and we haven’t had a great one maybe ever. He’s got every physical trait and the dog in him to be a true #1 and a centerpiece on this defense with Burns, Brown and Chinn for a long time.

Plain and simple.. While all this bitching is happening... Who was the bust player this coaching staff drafted last year?? 

Hmmmmmmmm

When you realize most of the players they drafted were contributors then maybe we can give the benefit of the doubt..

For the record I don't think this pick moves the needle, good, elite, whatever.

There's been too many teams with an elite CB 'trapped' on them. It's really a matter of chance if he turns out to be worth the 8th pick. Even if he somehow lives up to it, it may be another Christian situation where an elite player spends his days breaking records on a poorly built team with too much talent in the wrong positions.

It's not about busting or not really. It's about where the talent is, and how to build a team. There's countless teams over the last decade that had everything, but the position that matters most.

I swear to almighty whatever.. These armchair GM'S are getting worse every year..

It's not even them being GMs they just want to seem smart and die on any hill instead of looking at the bigger fugin picture.

I'm stoked for Horn, one of my Favorite DBs in a looong time, but if we didn't draft him and, say, drafted Paraons I'd STILL retain the ability to see the bigger picture.

People have opinions. Last off-season the 'armchair GM's' said Teddy wasn't it, and we were going to win 5 games and miss out of quarterback prospects.

Take a trip back in time and read the threads. Then maybe you want poo on everyone's opinion that doesn't align with you own (the front office's I mean).

    • This is gonna be longest six weeks ever 
    • This 1000%.  Hey who wants to sign with the guy that couldn't even get his client the guaranteed contract of a 3rd round pick?  Lmao
    • I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
