Just kidding, were getting close on d. 

Still think we need another impact LB, a true three tech beside derrick and backup safeties behind burris and chinn. 

 

However on O we need a TE1, a RB2, LT1, a slot WR, a OG2, and a longterm replacement for Paradis. Also, we need a QB2, maybe QB1 if Darnold doesnt pan out.

I actually have high hopes for Arnold. I think he has the tools to be a solid weapon for us moving forward. WR3 maybe but we'll see. We didn't have one before last season even with the same guy on the roster the season's before so who knows? LT1 I would think yeah, OG2 I see more as a maybe. I'm not blowing off our newest OL just yet. Let's see how they fit in our system before judging. We did grab them quickly so maybe there's something there that we haven't seen yet because they've been used incorrectly? IDK. Let's see before deciding

Why do I feel like we draft 6 LB’s per year and have very little LB depth.  I think I have ROn Rivera PTSD.  

Lol, I feel ya there but we brought in 2 solid LBs in the off season. The one with ties to Rhule has the potential to be great. 12 sacks??!!! I know he's a tweener but that what we want. I think this defense is going to be super fast, creative and coming at the offenses in every which way. Getting a shutdown corner last night just opened the can of whoop ass on our opponents. 

We're playing mathball now. I know the movie was called moneyball but just because mathball doesn't sound cool but in reality that's what it is. We're projecting numbers. Those numbers equal results. X=4x5.7, Y=27:5.6. X+Y= Victory Folks! Doesn't matter how you get to the numbers, as long as you get to the numbers. We are becoming the Revenge of the Nerds.

    • It's honestly pretty interesting just seeing this pairing play out. Canales’ offenses (Seattle, Tampa) are run-first, under-center, play-action systems built around defined reads and intermediate/deep timing throws. That structure worked when he had QBs like Baker Mayfield or Russell Wilson in a system that created clear launch points and sightlines. His success has always been tied to a credible run game + play-action gravity. You can see that with the Panthers team building philosophy as well. Coker and TMac both are bigger receivers that won't get the best YAC production but thrive as possession receivers in contested scenarios. They're not the best in space and creating additional yardage in such, and would likely fair better systematically with a stronger armed QB who can create better opportunities on those boundary 1v1 matchups with stronger throws. Bryce, on the other hand, is a spread-native QB. His strengths are rhythm, spacing, quick processing, and off-script creation. Asking him to live in condensed formations with long-developing play-action concepts just hasn't been his forte. And well, his boundary throws are limited in velocity which takes a big chunk of the playbook off. And I mean a QB like Bryce can still work, it's just Dave's offensive philosophy and foundation is very much at odds with Young's physical limits and his own experience. So it's certainly still a learning experience for Dave to figure out how he can mesh his offensive philosophy with Young's strengths. He's very inexperienced with maximizing Bryce's strengths with his system. Would love to see us bring in an OC with spread experience and adaptability to implement a cohesive system with Dave to allow Bryce to thrive, as it's obvious we're sticking with him for a bit longer.   
    • Only thing I really agreed with is questioning why we didn’t take any timeouts on their last drive.  I know hindsight is 20/20, but I think it would’ve saved clock bc they were desperate to score as soon as the opportunity presented itself, but I also think it could’ve helped the defense regroup and maybe give us a better chance to stop them.
