Absolutely no one should think this guy is meant to effectively compare to Burns, and if someone does then they're insane. He is meant to provide a portion of that production at a fraction of the cost in combination with a couple more players, and the odds are that most of the end/edge group this year are short-term trials (thus the 2-year contract). That's how it was always planned to play out, and if one of them suddenly develops into something more then that's icing on the cake.

Key here is creating a good enough rotation until we can find the flagship talent at EDGE.
 

The draft isn’t that great for it but there’s some interesting guys. Last year though..ugh Tuli would’ve been a monster in Evero’s defense.

 

Yeah pretty sure Evero has said in the past that he'll send 5/6/7 guys on a blitz if he needs to. Probably the case this coming season.

And who was beside DB most the season? I barely watched lol. Tuttle? A'Shawn should be a little upgrade to what he was working with inside last season

Yeah, if we can sign another pass rusher, we might have a sneaky good defense. Don't tell @rayzor though. I wouldn't want him to give him any false hope. But, yeah, all this was made possible by trading Burns away. There's some irony in there somewhere.

Honestly, if we could get decent center play, we might be ahead of schedule. Everything leads back to Bryce though...

He is Haynes replacement, assuming Haynes is not back--not Burns' replacement.  That is why we are still pursuing Chase and Clowny.  I am guessing it is going to be Clowny, and I am guessing it will be a one-year contract.  Of course, we could whiff on both, and that would necessitate drafting one.  I think we could draft a Sam 0LB and a rush/Jack OLB.

I feel like he is more of a YGM replacement. I think he starts opposite of Young/Clowney/draft pick. He is a big upgrade over YGM and not far from recent Burns when you look at a complete package. If we could sign Chase Young (or Clowney) and Fuller it will set us up nicely in the draft IMO.

    • I think he did a solid job.  Honestly I liked his post game interview the best.  He gave himself a C and said he left a lot out on the field.  That kind of attitude can carry him far.
    • This is lacking a fairly considerable amount of context. For one, Adams(age 22) started 12 of 16 games, had 38 rec, 446 yds and 3 TD's on 66 targets(18 less, with 2 less games started). The main thing missing here is that the top two WR's for Green Bay that year combined for about 2800 yds and 25 TD's. Now if you want to throw a more accurate dart at Adams, take a look at year two. This year the production was spread around considerably and Adams didn't stand out from that pack(pun not intended).  So, if XL struggles mightily this season, I would probably keep that comparison in your quiver to counter argue. I would suggest that I don't think that scenario is probably very accurate for most HOF caliber WR's taken in the first round over the past 15 or so years. Adams was the 89th pick overall, as well. A little different hill to climb than XL, although not massively.
    • to clarify I am not referring to Will Levis.  Not knowingly.   I just made that up and tried to use a reasonable guesstimate of what else was done.  That sounded in the ballpark.  At one time I did look it all up and there were several teams that had much more successful days downfield.   If that happened to be Levis' actual numbers than it's more of a lucky coincidence.  If memory serves, it wasn't just Will Levis that brought the claim into question, it was SEVERAL teams had better days.  and you are missing my entire point of the subjective nature of it all.  If PFF employee Doug watched Bryce's film and then used his same unique subjective vantage point to grade all 31 other starting QBs.  Then dumped into into a spread sheet, it would a subjective Doug take but at least it would be a level uniform subjectivity.   The grades are done by various people.  All watching and applying their own subjective view to a play.  Everyone isn't going to grade incompletions out the same.  Or completions.   So when you dump it all into a spread sheet and hit sort.....it's not actually a statement of fact as portrayed.  Which is why you sometimes get some head scratching stuff.  I'm not reframing anything.   I don't think.  I just wasn't going to look it all back up so I was talking vaguely off the general issue I have with PFF and treating any random claim they make as the truth.
