I know Nebraska is considered a blue blood and they have been irrelevant for three decades. 

Older people thinking about years past  consider Nebraska a blue blood.   They aren’t IMO in college football anymore.  

that’s how I look at it at least 

How many kids think Nebraska is a blueblood over a Clemson?  Unless you live in Nebraska you probably haven’t even seen Nebraska play if you are a kid lol

Kids know Dabo, Watson, Trevor and see Clemson as a permanent fixture in college football.  

I think NIL and the upcoming conference changes will create a new mix of them.  No one cares about 30 years ago

I'm not opposed to trading out of that spot and amassing stupid draft capital unless you're certain Anderson is a sure fire HOFer.

Yeah I'm seeing a lot of guys I'd like to take shots at in mid 1st-late 2nd than any sure fire game changer in the top ten. Problem is most other teams are gonna think the same and not trade up. I think the 2021 draft with Lance and Fields is probably turning teams off from getting too excited about prospects. There was some weird trades last year but I don't remember anything like selling the farm to get into the top 10. The Philly/Saints trade was the weirdest and that was mid 1st round

I'm 40 and I still barely remember Nebraska being relevant.

If you're a HS recruit outside of the corn belt you'd probably be legit shocked to find out that Nebraska was once decent at football.

It’s insane how bad Nebraska is now. People under the age of 30 have no clue how dominant they were at one point. Tommy Frazier is one of the first athletes I cam really remember as a kid being completely starstruck by. Lawrence Phillips as well.

That Nebraska team that dismantled Florida was maybe the best ever.  Miami had a few you could argue but who knows

Nebraska Oklahoma was a great game in the Osborne Switzer era.

      Post- Training Camp 53-Man Roster Projection

      By CRA · Posted

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
