Tankers

The winner of this trash division is probably gonna cost themselves 10 spots of draft position. Just to get their asses kicked at home in the wildcard round.

We just cost ourselves 4 today. To be honest picking 10th and 20th isn't really much different. So playoffs is really the only success we can reach now.

So if we lose 1 more game or so what was all this worth? bashing people who are looking towards the future doesnt make you not a fan it makes you a realist. I was all for tanking but these victories push us out of legit top 5 pick range so whatever win out. However remember this thread when we lose 1 more game or so and are eliminated from contention and forced to pick 15.

Just about where Michael Mayer is projected to be selected. PERFECT!!!

So hopefully we find someone at 15 worth drafting that can make a huge impact. QB's can still be drafted at spot 15 and can develop into something very good with the right coaching and support around them if they have the physical tools, and the mental toughness to stand in there and take their lumps while learning and growing as a player.

There's gonna be All-Pros in this draft. Probably a couple of HOFers. Who will they be?

I'm hoping Michael Mayer is one of them for us.  Also one of these WRs we hopefully take: Smith-Njiba/Rashee Rice/AT Perry/Xavier Hutchinson.  At RB either Chase Brown/Blake Corum/Isreal Abinkanda/Dwayne McBride.  I'd take ILB Jack Campbell or Tommy Eichenburg.

    • I'm going rogue in R1 but there's so much confusion around us. Last year, we were going Walker or Williams and caught folks off guard with TMac. The previous year we LOVED Legette and it was no surprise when his name was called. This year, I think we nail three areas that weren't totally addressed in FA.  R1 - Kayden McDonald Full disclosure, I want Thienemann here, but think he goes before 19. Some might see an "overdraft" but McDonald unlocks so many people on our D. Having a DT the caliber of McDonald let's Lloyd, Wallace and the newly drafted Hill flood the offensive backfield. Also opens up Moehrig and our EDGES to eat. Lastly, it also removes all the pressure on DB to be the primary facilitator in the trenches and A'Shawn will be missed. I don't care about Turk. McDonald is the only true DT worth of a R1 grade and Morgan seals up our trenches here w/ a kid from a blue blood school. R2 - Anthony Hill Jr *trade up*  I love JRod, but think a smart team takes him at the end of R1 (Seattle, NE w/ two d-minded coaches). Hill, Jr is a beast and lost in the shuffle with all the Styles/Allen/Rodriguez hype. He and Lloyd with DB and McDonald up front and flanked by Scourton/Phillips is nasty.  R3 - Hecht/Lew/Center du jour Let's stop the madness with ignoring this position in the draft. We need one and should start normalizing the capital invested in our OL with someone on a draft contract. He won't need to start day 1, but I think the right selection will push for starter reps. R4 - Bud Clark Not sure if he's here in R4 where we pick, but would fit the "type" of FS/roamer that we need opposite Moehrig and Ransom. Allows us to run 3-safety looks and really keep teams guessing with personnel packages. R5 - Kendrick Law The kind of WR we need. IDK if he's any different than Horn, Jr or Metchie but Law could be a dart throw that brings a deep threat to our WR corps I'm guessing one of the R5 picks is used to move up in R2 along with a '27 day 3 pick.   Post-draft, I sign Njoku to bring in a vet at TE. I'm also keeping my eyes open for pre-week 1 team cuts for a young CB that we could bring in to maybe plan for Mike Jack's departure next year. Flame away.... I know the McDonald pick will not make people happy.  
    • Classic example on what AI is not currently good for.  It will create a baseline of statistics (which are fine but must be used alongside tape and other evals) and partner that with every rumor mongering dips*&$t on the web.
