Can you imagine having Creed over Paradis???

This isn't hindsight either in the draft thread a number of us were talking about the C's and Smith specifically but other Gs as well. This OL wouldn't be weak at all given those two and rookies at that. LT would still leave a lot to be desired but can actually plan around one really weak spot rather than 4.

Yea was gonna say or even Trey Smif in the 3rd...would be looking better overall as a team but that's not TM's fault and he's still a player. Getting Shi Smith who can play later in the rounds as well makes it looks worse from a team building perspective.

Would much rather have Humphrey and Smith but here we are.

That was what drove me insane. We were making luxury picks when we still had a lot of building to do.

IMO, the staff did not appreciate how critical OL play is. They thought they could dumpster dive their way to an average OL. It just doesn't work that way. Rhule talked all offseason about talent and versatility when it came to the OL. One thing he never talked about was ABILITY. They thought they could mold these guys into good linemen, when that had never been the case in their NFL careers. Then you double down by taking two project offensive linemen who you can't even play on a line this bad.

I have beat the dogshit out of this horse but my God.....this was so avoidable.

If we took Creed over Marshall and Smith over a long snapper we’d have a pretty solid OL and we could have dumped Paradis and saved a chunk of cap space. Woulda, shoulda, coulda but yet again our OL would be young and solid if Brown and BC develop. All we would have lost is Marshall and a long snapper. 

i bet anyone on this board can do a better job at Center than Matt f'n Paradis right now.   Good lord...

Probably what Samuel did last year as WR3? I assume people were hoping for 60-70% of that. Samuel averaged over 60 yards a game. Marshall is at over 19 yards a game.

Samuel averaged 6 targets  per game.  Marshall is averaging 3 per game PLUS he is a rookie.  All I am saying is give him time. Everyone expects instant results. It's not realistic.

Stop making excuses he was supposed to be an upgrade over Samuel and he isn’t the man sucks he has done nothing quit making excuses 

He has played 6 career games with 2 established WRs ahead of him and questionable play from Darnold. (Almost got him decapitated last week). Try actually watching games before blurting out dumb poo.

Just telling you what I think the expectations were. He had a great preseason so people were pretty hyped. Also, seeing how well his LSU teammates have done probably also set some expectations because of the great preseason.

Also, please stop with the not realistic stuff. There are tons of day 1 and day 2 (and some day 3) instant impact players. It happens a lot. Someone mentioned Creed Humphrey, who’s played phenomenal and was selected after Marshall. I loved Erik McCoy over Greg Little, instant impact in round 2 as well. Some rookies develop, but there are a lot who contribute immediately as well, including Marshall’s teammate WRs.

He averaged 20 yds per reception in the preseason. Pretty much the exact same as he's averaging per game like you posted.....

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
