Thought I'd throw up our 2019 draft.  3 yrs ago,

Certainly not an A draft.  Probably a C 

 

  • Round 1, Pick 16: EDGE Brian Burns (Florida State)
  • Round 2, Pick 37: OT Greg Little (Ole Miss)
  • Round 3, Pick 100: QB Will Grier (West Virginia)
  • Round 4, Pick 115: EDGE Christian Miller (Alabama)
  • Round 5, Pick 154: RB Jordan Scarlett (Florida)

Dude that is an F-

Huh? We could have 4 legit starters? Icky, Smith, Henderson, Corral. If you want to put the make or break on Corral then fine…but if he’s even serviceable in year 1 then this team is competing based on defense and running game alone. The OL has a chance to dominate. I would rather be in our situation than the Giants…and the Giants graded as an “A.”

Not sure why you are comparing the Giants draft but their first round is sheer brillance.  Perhaps the best best rusher and perhaps the best tackle in the draft. 

 

As for ours we have one starter from the draft.  "Could start" doesnt matter as we sit today.   Our draft is a solid C as we stand the sunday after the draft.  And I am fine with that.  I love the icky pick and I love the corral pick (as far as value goes).  Everyone else looks either like a special teams player or not making the final roster.

Our Best Draft Ever,,  probably 2001 .. real pro bowlers 

#11 Dan Morgan ,

#44 Kris Jenkins,

#72 Steve Smith,

Yea no doubt, but I meant at this point, before knowing what they turn out to be, this one is up there. We didn’t know Smitty would turn into one of the goats and Jenkins would be great.  We finally got a real stud at LT and a very promising QB. Those two alone make this one of our best without using hindsight to judge.

Lol. This is one of the best drafts we’ve had, at this point. Whether or not they all bust or boom is another story. Other places have given us all As and Bs so far

I agree. I have no problems with the guys the selected. On paper at this time even with less picks I understand why they selected the guys they did and this is my favorite draft class the last few years.

If your team is starting multiple rookies (after the first round) at positions other than ST then your team is gonna suck. 
 

We got a starting LT, possible starting outside linebacker…some good special teamsters and Corral. 
 

If the Giants are starting more than Thibodeaux and Neal at positions of significant reps….they’re not gonna be good? Maybe they start the OG they drafted. But probably not. The LBs and corner they drafted are special team. They got quantity. I’m not sure their quality is that much better.

      Another example of Bryce playing chess that casuals wouldn’t notice or appreciate

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Yeah he's the reason we weren't up by td's at that point lol, DC having to get creative just to get into field goal range and then immediately trusted his rookie kicker. to kick a 48 yarder in the wind rather then let Bryce try and complete a couple 5 yard play action passes to get in better position when Green Bay had their whole fuging team in the box to stop Dowdle lol. Twice in a row. If it was already under 40 I'd get just running to set up the hashes but jeez..

      Meow Mix podcast cancels plans to return after players tell them not to

      By Mage · Posted

      JMO, I think it is lame as hell to publicly give up on the team and then crawl back when they win a few games. Like, how can you run a PANTHERS PODCAST and then give up on it during the season? Yes, you can argue the Panthers prior to Week 3 hadn't done anything to deserve fanfare, but nobody made them run a Panthers Podcast.  They chose to.  So stick with it.  Instead they gave up and did so publicly.  Which is well within their right - but you can't then turn around and bring it back the same season.

      The crazy thing about football is it’s a team sport. But one position can make or break the game. And one of the best ways in doing that is by not giving the ball away and being able to run at 4-5 yard clips. Throw in a couple passes and next thing you know you’re in the red zone. Playing this way limits possessions to other(more dynamic) QBs too. And if your defense plays well that could equate to between 4 and six series. If you’re running that efficient, you can say, split the offensive production with the run or the pass. So by attempt byce accounted for his half of the yardage and Rico did too. Rico also managed to punch it in at the goal line. And you gotta give it to our oline and they’re running blocking and that’s without TMO! so the truth is, Canales and management figured out how to use Bryce’s strengths to compliment this run game to cover up his weaknesses in a way that is efficient. And our defense showed improvement against pretty formidable opponent the week after andy dalton gave it to buffalo. They are putting winning football on the field more often, and we are slowly becoming better each week. I hope they can keep it up.
