The thing that angers me the most about the future...

At least we only have to go one year without a first. If Young truly is a horrific bust we'll be in a position to draft a QB in the next draft. We've given away some good players yes but our draft capital going forward isn't in terrible shape. Hopefully with a competent GM and HC in place we can get things turned around fairly quickly.

Who is going to be picking this competent HC and GM?

DT Jalen Carter (#9 overall 2022)

RB Christian McCaffery (#8 overall 2017)

QB Caleb Williams (#1 overall 2024)

WR DJ Moore (#24 overall 2018)

-for-

Bryce Young, Jonathan Mingo, DJ Johnson, Chandler Zavala

Great work front office!

(That proposal wouldn’t even go through in a middle school fantasy football league)

We really don't know if we'd be in a position to get Caleb Williams. I really don't think so. My guess is that we'd have a pick somewhere between 10 and 20. There's no reason to think that Dalton couldn't have played at least equal to every QB in the NFCS.

Wish we were in a position to get this guy. We could slide Ickey to left guard and get back to having a dominant line

Oh yessir! Dude is a bigtime difference maker! I've only seen him beat once and it was a 15yd arc out and in where the QB ran right into it. Run, pass, dude is the whole package.

I'm not even mad anymore.

It's just the most ridiculous thing any professional sports team has ever accomplished. The biggest fail. That's our legacy now. These last 6 years, that's who we are. Not just failures. Epic failures.

I've gone from anger to pure astonishment

Makes me sick to see that on paper. How could we have been so stupid to trade those star game changer difference makers for what we have now?

    • To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever… 
    • Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.
    • The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
