Let’s all just hope they are looking at him because we may trade down into mid teens. Maybe 2 small trade downs are in order.  Going to take another year or two to build this team out. 

I’d be beyond pissed if we took this guy anywhere in the first.

They're probably looking at his RAS scores every day and salivating. The nightmare early pick.

I want to laugh but we've gone out of our way to retain the same draft scouts that have helped us navigate some of the worst drafts in franchise history the last few years. The RAS obsession began with Tepper. Ultimately I think he is the one pushing for it the most. Don't need to hire any new draft scouts if the owner is the one calling the shots.

No one should be the least bit surprised by this organization doing powerfully stupid stuff. You don't accidentally achieve the worst record in the NFL since 2018, it takes consistently awful decisions to pull that off. And then the cherry on top of the dog poo sundae is that every year when we're closing in on a top 5 pick, here comes a couple of meaningless moral victories to fug that up. I'd be curious what percentage of our wins in the Tepper era have come when we're mathematically eliminated from the playoffs.  Feels like most of them with most of the rest coming when we might not be mathematically eliminated yet but we might as well be because we're basically going to have to run the table while other contenders absolutely faceplant which is basically the same thing as being eliminated. LOL

and somehow Dan Morgan has gotten a pass for his involvement in how we got here.  I mean, yeah, Dan threw big time cash at some guards last offseason.  Any GM can pull of that.  

The drafting since Morgan and most of his crew have been in the mix has been subpar to date.  I mean, can't fully judge them but clearly no early homeruns like you see around the league. 

best draft pick to date while Morgan has been on board was a 4th round RB.

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
