SMU is the only hope the ACC has.

 

 

Bruh.  There is no ACC team that realistically had a chance this year at a natty.  That’s been known for some time.   Miami isn’t a good team.  They have shown that all season in ACC play.  They just got a crazy good QB on a bad team.

I disagree. That O is stacked. The D is talented, but the DC has been an abomination.

I think a lot of you are going to be surprised with how poorly Ward does in the NFL.

No way to realistically make a run at a natty with that defense in Miami.  They were on the ropes every week in the ACC because of it. 

I worry about Ward and Sanders at the NFL level given how they haven’t dealt with the repercussions of holding the ball like they have in college.  Think it’s getting too much in their DNA…and NFL defenses will get home….

Bruh. I told you this before the season even started. The ACC conference has been bad for years. My hope is they only let SMU in. At least the newcomer can get embarrassed. We don't need multiple ACC teams in the playoffs embarrassing the conference even more.

 

Saying that I was wrong I had Miami winning the ACC and they crumbled towards the end. 

 

If I had to bet on the Nat'l championship winner I would probably bet Texas.

Nah, we were comfortable against almost everyone in the ACC. 

Two bad losses at the end of the season because the O started to get figured out and bob's your uncle. 

I never said we were going to win the National Championship - that wasn't the goal this year and a 10 win team is never a bad team. 

Ward doesn't have a good enough deep ball for the NFL - forget how much he freelances and wants to take the killshot, that's what will limit him at the next level.

Agree, as more time goes on I don't think this is the draft to be shopping for QB.

We aren't in position to be drafting a QB anyways. This is viewed as a 2 QB draft and neither will be available as it currently stands.

 

It sucks Deion is controlling Hunter as well. He's the guy we really need but no chance he's available either unless we end up in that top 3.

Syracuse, GT, VT, Cal…..the comfort wasn’t seen by outsiders vs them.  That’s half the ACC slate.

      Panthers attempted to trade up with Ravens?

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that.

      I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
