I'm ok with ignoring Noles in the Draft. 

Thats like saying it's OK to ignore byu players... what you would ignore Zac wilson... or ignore  north Dakota state players... you ignore trey Lance?  Josh Allen? Again.. just because a player went to a school has absolutely nothing to do with ability to play the game.

Pass Deflections and Coverage are more important than INTs. Usually the less INTs you have is because you are covering your guy well and QBs aren't throwing your way that often. The average fan should know this. Not surprising the usual suspects do not.

In the video with Will Blackmon, he shows pretty effortless catching of the football.  Maybe just not the opportunities, as you say.

I will say this.  We will find out rather quickly if this “the more darts you throw the better your chances are” approach is better than the classic “talent is at the top of the draft” mentality     
 

I can see both sides of the coin but damn we left a lot of supposed talent on the table early on.   Is our roster that bad?   
 

Sam is going to have a lot of talent around hi question is will he be protected.  

I think the staff saw the draft was loaded and we had holes so they gathered as many picks as possible. Each draft is different so IDK if this will be the norm.

Damn, hate when the ignore function doesn’t work when you post and the idiot on ignore posts during refresh.

So interceptions don’t matter? You think Taylor is Deion Sanders or Revis? Of course interceptions matter.

You really are a complete and utter douche. You might want to try and not be a dick quite as much. No one really cares about your opinion. Hopefully, the ignore works better.

Can a guy cover? Can a guy tackle? These matter a whole lot more than whether he picks off a handful of passes every year. 

FWIW, Horn didn’t have one in his first two years, and I think he maybe had two this year. He’s doomed!!!

I won’t have to act like a prick if people stop acting like total idiots.

If we trade up to get Smith at G, I would be in heaven. Not sure why he’s dropped so far but Nixon did too. Very athletic and big and was ranked as a day 2 guy. I think he could be a starter very soon and we need to get out of this draft with more than one OL. It would be an amazing cherry on top.

Smith because of health concerns, heard Nixon might be an off the field incident (unconfirmed).

When this happens there is clearly a reason why as everyone else feels the same way...

Looks like:
 

He did battle blood clots in his lungs twice during his career, which could be a reason for him falling in the draft. He hasn't missed a game in two years.

I mean lets just get Trey Smith and Deonte Brown.  Two huge guards to road grade

      Smitty on TMac

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
