Christensen ...

Well that is disappointing to hear but not all that surprising. I assumed he would at least play G for us this season but I am still happy with the Christensen pick. NFL is a massive jump from BYU (Zach Wilson will learn this the hard way) and I still believe there is a lot of upside in pass pro once Christensen gets up to speed. Maybe it takes him a year or two. As long as he is coached up and gets there, thats fine. 

Unlike Little, Christensen is highly athletic.  It's obvious that he has to step up and play with the big boys now and has some growing to do to get there.   

I'm in agreement that he probably won't see the field until the end of the season or next year.   I believe he is worthy of his pick and will produce.

The same logic would have to be used for Gase  though.  They went to the playoffs year 1 too.

Tannehill had a winning record with Gase though.  They went to the playoffs year 1 too.  

So did Sam.
In 2019, Sam had a winning QB-rec, his 1st year with  Gase. 
In 2016, Tannehill, had his ONLY winning QB-rec in SIX YEARS, in Miami.  His first year with Gase. 

In should be noted, the Dolphins had a BETTER record WITHOUT Tannehill than with him that year. 

Meanwhile the Jets didn't win a single game  in 3 years when Sam didn't play.

BTW
Tannehill's int% in 2016 was 3.1%.
        Sam's int% in 2019 was 2.9%.
That's right.  Sam threw interceptions at a LOWER rate than Ryan Tannehill in their best years with Gase.

For someone that constantly whines about being insulted, while insulting others and runs to the report button.

I dunno.

Maybe he is on to something.

 

Aw, aren't you sweet to notice. Find me one post where I complain about being insulted that doesn't come from FUdude. That's ok, I'll wait. I don't expect you to actually look. That ain't your style.

If we can get a 3 year starter on a 3rd round contract I can live with developing for a year. Not the end of the world. Have alot of dead money coming off this year so extend DJ and get a Tackle via 1st round or FA like another said.  If Brown starts 2-3years here at guard on a rookie deal even better! Both guards on a rookie deal will free up money for other positions.

Drafting Justin Herbert didn’t fix their oline. They are still a bad oline but their offense as a whole was much improved and scored 50 more points than the year before with a rookie QB. Now they can build around him. If the QB you believe in is there, you go get him. Then you can pair up a stud tackle the next year to protect him like Slater in this draft. 

No argument there. 

Know what that ultimately means? They didn't want Fields.

Do we really deserve it?

 

No, no we don't. But this place is a mess right now. What with the bullies, and all the negativity. He just adds to the watering down of teh Huddle. Too bad too, this place used to be a great place. Nowadays, not so much.

 

We had the All Pro section for a few years, and that helped. But alas, that is gone by the wayside. I wish there was some other place to go.

What's the argument you are making? 

We were discussing how Urban Meyer's QB are dog poo when they go to the NFL.  It's consistent no matter what college they came out of.  Great college QBs.  Horrible NFL QBs.   The Ohio St stigma is actually an Urban one IMO.  Which Fields isn't part of. 

When Gase connected with those two QBs, they immediately had there best season.  Yet he is at fault for everything when it comes to Darnold?

I think you may have responded to the wrong thread. Your last post in this thread was about Tannyhill, and Gase. Just an FYI

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
