I'm done pretending. That kid is a dud and IDGAF about feelings at this point.

Big picrure is whatever really. It's all about getting a house cleaning now. Picket looks capable of doing that for us.

I don't know he is gonna be a dud but his ceiling seems so obviously lower than is necessary to be taking in the top 15

At this point, if he’s the pick, then i’ll be excited to see his development and hope for the best. I’m not gonna go around knocking this possibility. 

I remember a couple years ago there were rumors of us being interested in Justin Herbert and so many in here were trashing him and the possibility of us taking him. 

 

We all wish we had him right about now lol.

If Teddy wasn't the answer I really don't see how Pickett is besides being recruited by Rhule at Temple. They basically have the same ceiling, with Teddy actually showing he can reach that ceiling in the NFL. Pickett could max out at like a Will Grier level in my opinion. At the best If you took Burrow and Grier and met in the middle which is basically a good backup

Yeah, I am not seeing Joe Burrow intangibles. Which, to be clear, I was completely not impressed by Burrow. So maybe my skepticism is good news.

And Burrow got it done in 2 seasons with better yards per attempt. Pickett had 4 starting years and was pretty good in his 5th senior year after finding out he was gonna go in the 5th round if he declared for last years draft. I don't really understand why people make the Burrow comparison

She is on this board saying willis.  She was saying Jones this time last year so I wouldnt take too much stock in her "sources"

Is Willis who she wants us to pick or who she thinks we will pick? (as of right now, still a long way to go)

It’s fluid, it could change at any moment. I’m just saying she said on Twitter, her sources are saying we like Pickett, same thing Albright is hearing.

    • Honestly, I view the rest of this season like every game is a division game - meaning you can throw the records out.  Throw the perceived favorites out.  Every week, we have to show up and punch them in their mouth.  We’re gonna have to gut it out.  We can’t go into games against well coached teams and think, “well, the Rams already got that one, McVay is just too good of a coach and they’re too talented.”  “Can’t beat the Niners.  Shanahan is one of the best and they just play everyone so tough, even with injuries.”  We have to go into each game feeling like everyone counted us out and we have to show them why they’re wrong.  And speaking of the Niners - that’s the exact blueprint we need to be looking at - for the last, it seems like at least 5 years, they have been decimated with injuries.  And they still contend to win their division and make a run in the playoffs every year.  Even while starting a plethora of QBs.  Even with their best defensive players being out for the bulk of seasons…  their DNA doesn’t change.  They compete.  Their standard is winning and nothing less, so even if you’re the 3rd stringer forced into action, either show up and play to that level or find another team.  This should be our approach and I think the Saints game was an important wake up call… I occasionally listen to whatever ESPN show is on sports radio in the mornings with Chris Camry and I believe it was after we beat the Packers, they asked him about us and he said, “they’re a young team learning how to win.”  And that is about as accurate or a description as you can get.  It explains the hiccups and the struggles.  But it also explains why it looks so good when we put it all together.  What we need now is our guys to have that light bulb come on as a collective and never look back.  I hope last week was the start of that and it continues tonight and for the rest of the season..
    • The veterans played better last night and they actually were looking for Kon but Bridges and Sexton went for a combined 2-15 from three. That is so bad.
    • https://www.talkbasket.net/206848-lamelo-ball-frustrated-by-hornets-struggles-amid-durability-concerns "Charlotte Hornets star LaMelo Ball is reportedly frustrated by the team’s lack of forward progress, according to NBA insider Jake Fischer." Apparently in his mind being perpetually injured and playing less than Gordon Hayward while on a supermax contract has no effect on the forward progress of the franchise.
