Hindsight is 20/20

What does anyone ever hope to accomplish by asking these questions?

There's no way of knowing all the "whats" we know now (and anyone who says they did is full on delusional) and there's now way of changing it, so why fixate on it?

None of that matters. All that matters is what we do now.

Man, that greasy 7 layer burrito with extra hot sauce and sour cream really triggered an emergency code brown while I was Wal-Mart. In hind sight I probably shouldn’t have eaten it.

Don’t get this Najeh Davenport stuff you keep posting.  What is the deal?

If Rhule and Fitterer know that Henderson and Gilmore will be available via trade do they draft Slater instead of Horn? 
 

Then the question becomes…If you gave up a 3rd for Henderson mid-season would you have been better off giving up a pre-draft 2022 2nd and using 2021 1st on Slater? Seems like the classic conundrum of “which elite player is more valuable…OT or CB?” I think the answer is obvious. 
 

Hindsight is always 20/20 and I love Horn and think when he comes back healthy he’s going to be a pro-bowl DB. But the thought that we could have had Slater, Henderson, Gilmore is painful right now. 
 

Yikes. 

It’s not hindsight 20/20. There were some beliefs prior to the draft that Gilmore would not be back in NE.

    • This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY. 
    • The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.
    • I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
