I'm agree, not taking a TE with our 1st round, especially this year with big need in many premium position. 

I want a new QB (Levis or Richardson) and will be in great position to draft one of this guys with a late 10. 

The TE class is good this year, we can draft with the 2nd round or 3rd round Dalton Kincaid or Tucker Kraft. 

Have you genuinely seen Richardson play QB? He's such a massive project - Allen is a unicorn, don't bank on it happening again.

I won't lie, I've always liked Darnold so I have a bit of a slant there. I did think he was only worth being a back up QB after last season. Darnold had one major flaw, he even famously said it himself, seeing ghosts. The one thing I have seen so far from him is that is not the case. He has protection and even when it break down he steps into the throw and the hit that is coming and delivers the ball. If he can keep that up he has all the physical talent in the world to be a starting QB in the NFL.

I mean all I'm saying is he has to over come his fatal flaw. Right now in the limited time we've seen him, it looks like he has. He has some important games coming up where he cannot be the reason we lose and at some point I am sure he is going to have to bring us back from being down a score or two, if the rest of the team is clicking can he do it? To me that will be the sign. Anyways Darnold is trending up, you gotta have a little hater in you not to see that.

I've been saying it since Baker was traded...we have to hedge our bets in the draft and re-sign Darnold to a open-competition QB1/solid QB2 kind of contract.  Take Marcus Mariota's deal for example.  If Darnold continues to play well the next couple of games, I wouldn't hate a contract similar to this.

I should have added a little more text to make my meaning more clear.  I am applauding your willingness to speak your mind, when so many Darnold haters are prowling around here.

      Baldinger on the 2026 LB Class

      By PleaseCutStewart · Posted

      As long as we have DB, odd man fronts are the way to go for us. We want to line DB up between the guard and tackle (4i-tech) because of how quick he is off the snap and his punch on the guard off the snap. If anyone is wondering why he pretty much has to be doubled (or combo blocked) just about every snap, its because he is lined up in that spot in our odd man front. If we change to an even front, it becomes a lot harder to have DB play the 4i-tech.  Not sure if I would say Evero likes smaller NTs - I wouldn't call Bobby Brown a small NT by any sense. I think we run a 1-tech NT, so they are usually getting double teamed (or combo blocked) by concept alone. I actually think Bobby Brown did a pretty good job of eating blocks and being positionally sound on most runs at him (not his fault we were rocking ass LBs last year + Wharton being god awful). The bigger problem came on the toss plays/outside runs where DB wasn't able to blow it up in the backfield (i.e., the Bills game). Lloyd should help with the run D and getting a rangy LB in the draft will definitely help. There are also some good 1-tech DTs (and 0-techs) that can be instant day 1 starters for us in the draft.

      Thanks for bringing receipts. I appreciate the facts, but they are a stark contrast to what we see on the ice, but maybe, as I've said before, his "aw sh!t" moments just seem to weigh heavier than his "attaboy" moments.
