We've reached the point in the draft where people are pissed we're passing up offensive guards for skill guys lol

Yep.  This is where you draft RB and certain positions.  DT, OL, etc just aren’t as good of players vs these dudes down here

Its going to be really interesting after the dust settles and they address the media of their thought process of neglecting the line when they specifically said they need to get younger better etc.  I just dont understand this at all.

Plus you can patch together a decent offensive line if you have two bookend tackles and they clearly feel they have that. We should be encouraged that they have a plan based on analytics and productivity and have gone all offense so far this draft. Not sure how you can't get excited about that.

Because they already did and have more picks to go, sheesh

Not my 1st Choice here (0r 2nd, or 3rd,...).

He has a poor reputation when it comes to ball security but fits the Athletic Profile they seem to want.

I wanted an O-line man...oh well...

Tiki Barber had a horrific fumbling problem even as an early pro, but the Giants stuck with him bc of his upside and he became a 3x Pro Bowler and all time Giant great.

Also, you're drafting on upside from here out... if a guy showed no holes, they would be long gone before the 4th...

If he can be an adequate backup to CMC and contribute on ST, it's a good 4th round pick

I think they should of done more for the lines too....but later in the draft isn’t where I want my lines built.   Rounds 4-5 I like the value of skill position dudes over the talent on the lines.  

I’d like them to grab a real returner at some point too.  Punt return guy

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
