My interest was at an all time low this off-season, but Fitt and Morgan have killed it. We have completely revamped our O line, held on to key young talent, and landed the best left tackle in the draft, along with getting a possible franchise QB all while keeping our 1st and 2nd round pick next season.

I never dreamed Icky would fall to us…..or that we could get someone like Corral without trading a future 1st/2nd round pick. 

We now have a young, talented defense, an O line that should be very respectable (Jesus we have a 10 year franchise LT now) and a young QB with first round talent that could be our franchise guy. I am stoked and these moves actually got me out of the funk I was in before. Ahhhhh that magic of the draft. What day Ye huddlers? How do you feel this morning after our draft magic?

Have to agree. We picked up two missing pieces and got potentially the best LT and QB in the draft.  Added to our coaching upgrades and free acquisitions we may have begun to turn the corner.

My interest was also at an all time low this offseason, and really tbh from about midseason on. Does one offseason completely reverse that? No, because while all these moves look good, we won't really know what we have until actual games are played.

I'd say on balance I'm cautiously optimistic because they at least are focusing on glaring needs that were ignored before, causing me to cast aspersions on the ancestry, professional competence and general shoe lace tying mastery of more than one high ranking official within the organization over the past year.

I am now prepared to concede that all key decision makers may indeed be able to tie their shoes without assistance, but let me see the team in action before I get wildy exuberant to the point of declaring they can walk and chew gum at the same time.

My plan if I was GM: Sign Ryan Fitzpatrick and let him battle it out with Darnold for the starting role so that Corral can have a true redshirt year and take over next season.

Are we absolutely certain that Fitz does not moonlight as a Russian or Eastern European gangster in the offseason? I mean, just look at the picture. Tell me you can't hear him saying in a thick slavic accent:

"Look, my friend, I no make threats. I just advise that if the half million rubles are safely in my hands by Tuesday, it is better for everyone's health, yes?"

I woke up this morning as a completely recharged fan. Between crushing our two picks this year AND seeing just how valuable Horn is going to be against all these new shiny WRs everyone else got.... I think the foundation is set for the next decade now. Give Corral a little time to get his feet wet and watch that dude shine.

Unfortunately, Rhule is still around, so any enthusiasm that this refreshingly competent offseason has generated thus far is being extremely blunted.

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
