I’m not that thrilled TBH but I feel like you can’t go wrong focusing on the trenches. Hopefully he’s a big contributor. 

I had my heart set on one of the ILBs. I don’t usually invest like that. So it is disappointing but better this than a few other options. For me.

just a late round pick swap, one thing Dan Morgan doesn't do on draft day is trade future picks

Marty hurney would trade future 1st's and 2nd's like free candy

Nobody was worse than Marty

Love the pic.

I was surprised after we cut Robinson how little focus there seemed to be for a replacement. NT is a very important position as the run stuffer in a 3-4 D.

As for the specific player, top NTs tend to be 320-350 lbs, so might need to gain just a few pounds, but not worried about vert.

He was the 2-3 best rated NT in this draft and most had him going somewhere between 30-50.

Want to moan about the trade? Minor give up. Obviously they had intel that led them to think someone else was going to pick him.

Yeah replacing A’Shawn was starting to worry me, I didn’t know how it was gonna get done.  This is a decent attempt.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
