BPA is a lie and I wish we'd stop talking about it like there's a universal power ranking for the draft class. It's meaningless because "best" and "need" are both highly subjective team by team. Most media big boards had Fletcher Cox ahead of Luke.

The good teams have the luxury of low stakes picks and incrementally upgrading the roster because they don't really have needs. The bad teams have needs at critical positions that are hard to draft, as we well know. 

so sure we can draft BPA we have done it before on numerous occasions & as a result had some of the best drafts in franchise history .

& like this team just  thought they had absolutely no other choice but to  draft a WR with the first pick last year & then what happens we sign (UDFA ) a WR who might wind up being better than that WR we though we had to trade up into the 1st round to draft 

building quality football teams takes alot of patience & a rookie edge rusher is not going to fix this team what is going to fix this team is talent/BPA  patience & making good decisions...just saying

Yes BPA is a myth. Certain positions will always be weighted. 

 

Plus, every NFL team says the prospect that they draft was the BPA at the time of the pick. I’ve never once heard a GM say “We liked player _____ more, but player _____ filled more of a need. It’s a pointless exercise

Then hit up the Giants who will likely draft Carter and rumor is shopping Thibodeaux and trade a 3rd.

Seems too simple..  

If he is available,  most definitely!!!  I saw that but wondering how they were gonna approach that come draft night. A bunch of players on the block. Even tight ends like Kittle, Andrew's and Mayer too. Jameson Williams etc. Definitely  different  avenues to improve the team with later round capital!

Geepers.. could you imagine..

Trade Motion

1st Round: Draft Will Campbell or Membou

Trade 3rd to the Giants for Thibodeaux 

Trade 2nd to Raiders for Mayer

I mean this is playing Madden but then suddenly you come out of the draft -30,000,000 in cap and 3 young players to build around.

Mayer is not worth a 2nd

I don't think it'd take a 2nd for mayer. Probably  more like a 4th and we got a few of those.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By frankw · Posted

      The defense is 28 out of 32 in salary cap allocation for 2025. We have a ton of resources tied up in the offense including the highest paid OL in the league multiple 1st round WR's and multiple recent draft picks across the offense at TE and RB and we have two 1000 yard backs. Bryce and company couldn't get past Tyler Shough and his crew in 2 games. That's all there is to it. You can spin it and put the entire onus on the defense to your heart's desire it doesn't change the fact that this is an OFFENSIVE team now. If you want to argue that we should revert back to a defensive identity as we have been in the past which has brought us success then I will agree with you on that. But as it stands the onus is on the offense because that is where we have invested through the nose. Dave Canales and Bryce Young need to do a hell of a lot better than they have against the rebuilding Saints who without us should only have 2 wins this season.

      Bryce is not trending up. He is the same QB he has always been. Bottom of the league in most categories.  If Canales thinks he can build a contender with Bryce then he is a bigger idiot then I thought.  Offense next year will have the same issues and be just as inconsistent as it was this year.  We have seen Bryce’a ceiling and it is 175 yards a game and that is not a QB you keep around as your starter. That is barely a backup.

      TNF: Rams/Seahawks

      By frankw · Posted

      Looks like Darnold should have had at least 3 picks. That'll get ugly in the playoffs eventually. Can't deny his physical talent though. You either have that or you don't. Mike Macdonald is a legit coach.
