Kidding around and my personal fandom for Sam aside - this is a solid point.
 

I wonder how much the off field issues would have been discussed if his first name was Jamal instead of Matt. Makes you think! 

I'm not a huge fan of the pick but oh my god how many more times can you bitch randomly on this thread? You should take this most recent one to the tinder box and file an official complaint with the internet keyboard trailblazers over there. You know who I'm talking about right? The guys over in the tinder box who bitch constantly about societal problems online and appear so passionate yet 99% do absolutely nothing in real life in their own unique communities to help fix the problems they supposedly see because that is so much more work than pretending to be a social justice warrior on a message board.

Lol took the most talented QB of this draft class and all it cost was a 3rd next year. That’s worth it 100 times out of 100 don’t care how good or bad he turns out. Great job this draft addressing our two biggest needs and not reaching in either pick so far. Very happy.

Well, 3rd round pick next year and a 4th round pick this year but regardless, I've got no complaints. For the potential he has that is a pretty good steal.

I am just so, so, so happy we didn't trade away next years first or second rounder

That is the biggest win. 

I'm nitpicking by complaining about the third rounder tbh. 

That being said. This pick at this point in the draft is an A+ for me. All of Corral's negatives have conceivable paths to be corrected. Whenever you have a guy who goes lower than expected or a guy like Pat Mahomes gets drafted after Mitch. It's always fun to go back and look at why they went lower than they did. Usually it's for dumb reasons. 

Corral's reasons aren't without merit but they are definitely things that can be improved. 1- He's lanky and needs to fill out his frame. Great his job is now to eat, sleep, workout, and play football. 2- He played in a pro style offense. Ok this isn't a problem intrinsic to him, he may flourish in a pro style offense. 3- He has off the field issues. It seems like he is candid about his problems and has tried to address them. To me that actually shows maturity. No one is perfect, it's how you pick yourself up after that defines you.

 

Is Corral a sure thing? Hell no. Is he worth a swing at pick 94. fug yea and we got him without giving up too much.

 

This has been an A+ draft.

We were drafting a QB no matter what. Doesn't matter that Corral's deep ball is worse than Darnold's. Fitt had to check the QB box. Pointless. On the good side we only gave up a 3rd round pick in 2023, and I can accept that. It could have been a lot worse.

      BREAKING: Panthers interested in Justin Simmons

      By Basbear · Posted

      I mean the whole defense was trash, he was at least trying. Besides if you put a all-pro among 10 PSers, that all-world will look human. It's very hard to judge very bad units and find the best players among them. Horn and Mjack played well too, there was 0 pass rush and -1777784 run defense.

      Getting an early start this year...

      By Basbear · Posted

      I was looking back and seen Evan Neal has made the switch to OG after awful years at OT.......I wanted him over Icky for his tricep alone..... I was 100% stroud too, I was super pissed about his record setting and playoff leading start......I had arich vastly over the midget BY too. But right now, BY is about the only one on the up&up. The Texans used lots of prime draft capital to help Stroud.  It's still not ready. But if you're honestly about past drafts, these GMs are not alone in making mistakes.  I still feel they should stayed put and allowed Carter to fall in their lap, but best I know Tepper had the worst rage about landing a QB for the past 5 years. The deal is with the correct coaching staff, Baker or darnold would still be here....Baker has signed 3 years for 100 million, which is a great NFL QB contract. Tepper hiring rhule and his shitty Baylor/temple staff was a massive setback given rhule was in control too. Then panic set in an d fitteerererererer had to make a winner and find a QB. Ugh.....I hope they are back...

      Jaire Alexander Released

      Also maybe the biggest part is his fromer college buddy, Lord Lamar told the GM to sign him. It was done nearly right after and guess who was the first person Alexander met at ravens stadium??
