Speaking of poor talent evaluation

I guess Trai Turner is still a decent RG ranked 16 out of 39. Better than John Miller I’m sure. 940317F9-9745-4F40-B7AB-9032AFE535C3.thumb.jpeg.e0b10c3856245d5527bb02e253d34f78.jpeg

To be fair, we got the better end of that deal at first… Okung just prefers to dabble in crypto and stocks/bonds these days over grabbing grown men in their nether regions on Sunday and occasionally Monday and Thursday.

No we didn’t. We traded a guy who was in the prime of his career for a guy at the end just bc the guy at the end was at a more important position…then he ended up mostly sucking.

I mean, did we?? Okung played in what, 7 games last year? Turner is still in the NFL and playing well.

Seems like that entire team had offensive line problems beyond Turner. Suddenly he’s serviceable on the Steelers?

FTFY


Not to mention he’s no longer on the contract that we gave him, he’s on a one year deal with the Steelers after an abysmal year with the Chargers.

If he would have had the same year with us that he had with the Chargers… let me just ask… have you seen the movie Old Yeller?

The contract is a valid argument. But I can’t help but wonder how much worse Turner would really be than the trash they’ve rolled out at RG since they traded him.

Scott had a decent game last week. Unfortunately, the old ball coach trotted out John Miller this week and never gave Deonte Brown a chance.

    • I am gonna believe it wasn’t us if the 4th round pick price is accurate. We needed 225 points to get from 19 to their pick. 875 at 19 to 1100 at 14.  Our 2026 4th was valued at 56 points I think. A future 4th has less value. So that wasn’t close to enough.    It would have taken our third and our fourth. Comes within a point of even.    Now, moving to their spot in the second round we could have done but after Miami took Rodriguez why would we? 
    • Yep,and Blake Miller have had more experiences than Freeling,Lions did not sigh a vet T like Walker,so they had to pick Miller.
    • I mean it's expected.  This is the NBA.  And they hate the Charlotte Hornets.  Flagg was also the guy "magically" given to the Mavs who lost Luca to the wildly popular Lakers.  Was always an uphill battle.  But the award is BS since it's not voted on before play-in starts. Kon probably lost because of the play-in as many people switched votes.  It was a regular season award, so this is some nonsense.  Kon also didn't have the luxury of taking 10 games off to rest up injuries like Flagg did.  If he did, he wouldn't have been nursing his back the last month.  I mean, screw him for being on an actual playoff team that matters.  Flagg took tons of shots a game, he was wildly inefficient.  Kon was a huge reason the Hornets made the play-in and turned the season around after Jan.   I think Flagg will probably be the better player long term, or at least the most impact.  But Kon should have won ROTY.
