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.

    • Derrick Brown was one player I never called or even suggested was a bust . Dude was young and hadn't even hit his stride. It takes time to learn the position. The thing I appreciated about him is that he kept improving season after season. He got paid and keeps on going like the Energizer Bunny.
    • How many teams coddle their QB the way Bryce has been coddled? I have never seen any other team in the NFL EVER baby a QB the way that Bryce has been.  Bryce was named day 1 starter his first year. It was obvious he didnt deserve it. He wasnt ready as evidenced by the worst rookie year in NFL history.  So let's move to year 2. He's named starter again with no competition in TC and is benched 2 games later. We have the ghost of a backup in Dalton who is so bad he can only beat Vegas and let's remember, the only reason he lost his starting job was a car accident, not because Bryce actually beat him out in practice.  And year 3. We sign Dalton again, who already proved he couldn't be depended on to put an even remotely passable performance on the field, and bring back Jack Plummer, who was even worse than last year. It was obvious he was nothing more than a pretend body in an attempt to create an illusion of some type of attempt to find a backup.  Then we start again with garbage play again and Bryce gets benched with a phantom injury, and the ghost of the ghost of Dalton breaks his thumb on the first drive and craps the field all over again. If we had actually made an attempt to find a legitimate QB2, it's possible Bryce doesn't step on the field again. Bryce is not agood QB and if we had any other mediocre QB, our record would be the same or better.  Bryce is not entrenched. He's been placed, protected and sheltered from ever having to face a  real QB competition in TC. Richardson and Levis both were ass and both were benched and eventually replaced.  Do I expect Baker to face competition in camp? Sure. I expect Tampa to find the best QB2 they can at price that fits their cap and resources and system and get him up to speed. If he's better than Baker, and if he's better by a significant margin, that's best for the team. The ultimate goal is a Super Bowl. Bellichek was constantly getting QB2s with the GOAT as his starter. He knew the value and that was realized when Cassell led them to an 11-5 record as a backup.  You and I may think differently than the people that matter but I will say it again. If you're afraid to bring in a capable backup, especially after the debacle of last year. The starting role wasn't earned, it was given, and that's loser mentality.
    • I would have done the same thing.  LSU is a much better job than Ole Miss.  Plus the enormous contract and every advantage a college team can offer in terms of recruiting and facilities and tradition etc
