I wasn't even crossing my fingers until 30 seconds before our pick, and I think we all know how badly I wanted T-Mac, lol.  And I only came around at the end there when the guys on NFL Network using past tense multiple times that they thought we would have gone defense with out pick right before they announced it.

The past few weeks of only hearing about defense had me 100% convinced we were going that way, whether it was Walker, Nolan, or a trade back for someone else, I wasn't even hoping for T-Mac once we got on the clock and he was there, I was just ready to be disappointed.

I also think that's why it was so exciting for me, because I was so convinced it wasn't even a possibility, that it was a legitimate shock to me.

LFG!!!!!!! bhahahahahahaha

of course we wanted to trade down, for the right deal, dont be silly

If the cowboys jumping us to 7 for tmac was the sole reason to have this smokescreen then thats pretty silly, dude you are bit blinded out the level of prospect he is.   As many have noted he would have been the wr 5/6 in last years draft.  He benefited greatly in timing.

Well played haha

Does it at least make you feel better about us taking T-Mac instead of Golden like you wanted, now that there are all these reports of teams like the Rams and Cowboys badly wanting T-Mac and trying to move up for them, but the Cowboys then passed on Golden and the Rams didn't try to trade up for him either?

Sorry missed this.  I was not really wanting a WR in the first--yes, it makes me better knowing the Rams and Cowboys and (another team) wanted him.  Those teams are pretty good judges of WR--except Mingo.

The Rams wanted to trade up for Williams who they ended up within the end. They even told him that when they called him to let him know he is the pick. The other teams are only an assumption. Like the Cowboys, who took a guard.

The truth is the team wanted to trade down first and foremost but couldn't get an offer the were happy with. They took McMillan because they felt he was bpa at 8 plain and simple.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
