Yeah…there’s a “yeah but” with all these edge guys tho. Even EZ, he’s not stout at holding the point, same with Swinson Green might be a raper, Oladejo is raw. The buckeye duo aren’t  that quick. Pick your poison. One deficiency doesn’t seem all that worse than others.

Some of these are worse than others. There's a reason I haven't mentioned Green at all. And of the Buckeye duo, JT is more athletic. So Sawyer's deficiency is worse.

Gonna be the story until someone does.  May decided that he can make more money at Colorado.  Not sure what daddy paid Shedeur. 

 

He'd rather work on his brand than work on his game. It's all about the money with the Meon family.

Does Dan Morgan trade up in the 2nd? Who do you guys think we should be targeting in the second round? players I like. 
 

Landon Jackson

Princely Umanmeilen

Carson Schwesinger

Nic Scourton

Xavier Watts

Darius Alexander 

Alfred Collins 

 

 

 

 

As the expert in all things football, I have no idea.  I think the edge rushers are deep in round 2--six or more that we might like.  I would sit tight.  If they trade up, the go for Emmanwori or Watts--I see them drafting Scourton, for some reason.

I dont think they add DT (we got brown back, added 2 more DTs in free agency) until day 3.  I would not be surprised to see an OT in round 3, but it will probably be something like Scourton in round 2, Sanker or OT in round 3.

I want to give him a break, then he does something that shows me that he is out of touch.  My Dad caught 34 passes at South Carolina as a sophomore the year I was born and was All ACC--much smaller scale--but I spent my life trying to fill his shoes and live to his standards--it is tough. you are in a different world--when Dad died, Dan Reeves came to his funeral and spent 20 minutes telling me stories that I never knew--you feel as if you were born into a royal family and you are not worthy--  So for that reason, I sorta get it--how much is this Dad and how much is this SS?  Dad is using it to recruit, and somehow, Colorado is the feature story nearly every day for a month prior to the draft.  Two players.  Meanwhile, Ohio State had 4 first rounders and will probably have 4 more tonight, and we barely know who they are.

Just watched Shedeur's speech about not getting drafted--Impressive.  Maybe this dose of humility is exactly what he needed.  I am guessing Cleveland or the Raiders today.

Too late for them to do damage control now. Deion was trying to backpedal in recent weeks too when he started trying to talk back his mess about controlling where Shedeur does or doesn't go. When you're a marginal NFL physical talent don't compound it with a bunch of wild ego BS. Now instead of bragging about being a top 5 pick and calling their own shots they're wondering when the slide will end.

It's all his Dad's fault. He's coddled him all his life.  He had to be his coach in HS and in College controlling any and all development of the kid. He was also his media spokesperson and agent before the kid accomplished anything. Shedeur thinks that he can live of of family name alone.

Deion created this entire draft mess by running his mouth before the draft spinning any critique of his son to the media to get the attention on himself. He created this monster and his sons talent can't back it up.

    • So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?
    • Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.
    • Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
