Not referring to this thread specifically, but you have people who share absolutely nothing and they are the first to go on the attack.  Never positive....

The draft makes people upset because we all develop patterns and strong opinions about who we should draft and when that plan is breached, we have to readjust.  I try to look at it from the perspective of what I think they are going to do, not what I know they need to do and if they don't, they are wrong.  I must admit, I was hoping for a RB later, but a RB could be the most bang for the buck.  There used to be a day when they were really coveted. I don't mind drafting a RB on day 2, but I mind giving them contract #2.  I just wonder if the new Guards have not already addressed the problem.

All I know is, in terms of their visits.  It sure looked WR,  RB and DT heavy,  Got to think we leave draft with those spots in their ideal world.  

But I don’t want any RB at 39.  We can round out our backfield later in the draft.

There's not a position on our roster that can't be upgraded in the draft. If the right guy at the time of the pick is a running back, then take him. 

We are literally a "the cupboard is bare" team right now. There's one sacred cow on the team that can't be replaced and he just got an extension this off-season to play DT for us. But there's still a spot to either side of him that can and should be replaced.

Running back under appreciated in the league, well that's a load of bull. Undervalued does not mean under-utilized. If that RB can catch and can find the hole in the line and make something for us, it'd do so much for our offense. And if he can pick up the blitz and block like a demon? Heck, that'd be great.

We had a guy like that. Dude played in the Super Bowl this year while our team took vacation and watched the game on TV.

    • Completely agreed.  TBH, we have had so many great players that are in my favorite list, and I hate to narrow it down to one, but Cam is it.  Which is crazy, because you would think it would be more of the guys I grew up watching, but no.  Cam was the single most impactful player to ever out on a football uniform imo.  And like I said in an earlier post, I always felt a kinship with him in a lot of ways…  the way he was treated and judged for the off the field stuff in Florida and having to overcome all of that and fight show at back.  And although I am not a black man, I have always been welcomed by and accepted more by minorities, and thus, I know what it’s like to be judged by appearances rather than the content of your character and who you actually are.  I know what it’s like to be stereotyped and written off or mistreated for your mistakes.  I know what it’s like to be held to a different standard while your peers don’t have to meet that same standard.  So I always related to that.  And the way he came in and just electrified the whole franchise, man…  I still think about it often how much it sucks that because of how talented he was, our staff out so much on him and that ultimately cut his career short.  You’re right, there will never be another Cam…  I think Josh Allen is the closest thing we will see for a long time, but Allen is not the running threat Cam was.  Cam could run you over or around you.  That was THE absolute funnest time to watch our team ever.
    • It definitely needs more specificity than is baked in now. 
    • The weirdest encounter I had with a pro athlete was waiting in line at security at Mile High Stadium when I used to get the company suite tickets almost every week because I was the only employee based in Colorado. There's a small checkpoint accessing the suites that virtually no one knows about that you can usually squirt right through. I was standing there and looked over my shoulder and there stands John fuging Elway waiting in line behind me.  This was during the The Golden Calf of Bristol season right before he became GM. I just said "They make YOU go through security?" He's like "Yeah, ain't that a bitch. I literally have a statue out front and I gotta go through security like everybody else." I've heard mixed things about him but he was super nice and down to earth with me that day.
