Oh look, Douglas on NFL network for playing a great game. Why in the hell have we wasted SO MUCH draft and trade capital on DB's and not the OL???

Fitterer said there aren’t any quality linemen available right now and teams are holding onto the good ones.

Yes, because other teams drafted quality linemen, if they aren't quality they release them. It's like the rarest position to fix in free agency. That all defensive draft was cool though

Our staff literally said that offensive lineman are the hardest position group to grab outside of the draft.  And yet they still relied on finding them outside of the draft.

THIS. Staff says they cannot find OL in free agency, yet waste draft capital on db's. Draft some quality OLmen you dumbasses!  Also, stop trading for DB's when you have some who are good. Another CB won't make you a championship team!!

Yes, but he had an injury that kind of made sense to move on. Douglas looked like our best CB last year, then was unceremoniously let walk. Then, we draft a CB #8 and trade for 2 of them. W. T. F.

Not even just the draft, people were thinking guys like Andrew Whitfield were almost washed up when he was up for FA and he’s been all-pro caliber with the Rams.  We just settle for scrubs and don’t make moves for quality linemen 

[Scott12345]

He should have been flagged on that last int…horrible non call

[DamnItJake!]

Lmao!! I heard him playing good today and wondered who would start a thread!!

And he pounced on two pieces of trash from other teams in day 1 of 2021 free agency.

Whitworth and let’s be honest, it does take two to tango and like Stafford, he may have preferred LA. It’s easy to say we should have drafted X if they we available but FAs choose their destination even if we were interested. 

Ha, yeah not even sure how I got Whitfield out of Whitworth.  But yeah, you’re right.  It’s hard to gauge player’s preferences when some guys don’t want to come here, but good free agents who could’ve gotten a lot more like Reddick signed with us for cheap. Never know what’s going on behind the scenes so it’s easy to be cynical

Douglas is not a cover corner. He is more of a zone corner. He has shown good eyes and instincts and has good size. I think after last year Snow wanted to play more man, especially after our 3rd down woes. That's why they let him walk. He has looked really good this year because he is being used the right way by his coaching staff.
