With all of this pointless debating about who we are gonna take at number one, I want to see who's with me in this regard...

I am completely fine and will be thrilled with selecting any of the following:

LSU's Patrick Peterson

Mizzou's Blaine Gabbert

Alabama's Marcell Dareus

Auburn's Cam Newton

Georgia's AJ Green

Auburn's Nick Fairley

Every one of these guys would be a very nice addition to our franchise and will no doubt play a major role in our ascent back to the top of the league whether it be in the immediate future or over the course of a few years.

So let's step back and realize this amidst all of these annoying back and forth's about Cam, Gabbert, & etc. At least try to be open about taking any one of these guys in the coming months and consequentially the draft will be much easier to absorb.

Sign up if you're with me

Cheers :cheers2:

So basically you are saying you're a fan of this TEAM and that you trust the guys who are paid handsomely to evaluate talent that they'll do a good job and pick the right guy?

Pretty much, but it seems hard for soo many people to actually admit

Given last year's handling of the draft, it's hard for anyone who is a fan of this TEAM to fully trust the guys who are paid handsomely to evaluate talent to do a good job.

Considering we have a completely new staff & along with our GM who has an above avg draft track record imo, I am fine with trusting them. You choose to distrust them and remain mad about last year's draft, I remain chill about whatever may happen because I know there's no way in hell I know what's gonna go down.

Just because Fox's lame duck throw away season didn't create stars outta every draft pick doesn't mean they can't still do well.

Draft picks can't be fully evaluated until 3 years out, sometimes longer.

The jury is still out on last years draft, even though admittedly the outlook isn't exactly positive. Lets give these guys time to suprise us before we bury them.

Let's also give Hurney a chance to draft without John "imsoconservativeidontdevelopyoungplayers" Fox. How was Hurney's last draft without Fox? :cool:

That's all well and good, but we still have the same GM... who arguably has a huge hand in draft strategy. And Fox claimed that he had little imput on personnel.

Yeah, but you're talking about "trust" here. You know what they say about it... being earned and not given...

And last years draft is not the only indictment against Hurney. He's made a slew of poor decisions over the years.

you are ahard man to please

I'm really a simple man who appreciates all facets of the game of football and don't get caught up in excitement.

Give me the best player to help this team win as soon as possible.

I'll let you try and convince yourself that player is Cam ;)

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.

      Moton Meets the Press

      Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.

      I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
