Most important question this week: Do u trust Hurney & Co

Honestly, I believe this is the most important question to ask yourself this week. The truth is a lot of us may think we are experts here, but only Hurney, the coaches, and the front office has access to all the information to make an informed decision on who we draft with the #1 pick.

The truth is we have to rely on them. If we had access to all the information they have access to maybe some of our opinions would change. The interviews with the prospect, seeing how the qb's did with the playbooks, hours and hours of scouting videos, the private workouts ect. That information is important to forming a valid conclusion and seperating one prospect from the next. Right now we are all coming to conclusions with incomplete data.

So with that said do you trust Hurney and Company to make a good decision with all the information and data they've gathered??? Some fan bases don't trust thier front office at all, while others have complete faith in theirs. Where do you stand with Hurney???

No matter what the decision (even if it is not what you wanted) will you trust that player must have been the right choice based on infomation they gathered, or will you question their decision??

At this point, I still trust in Hurney and trust our new coaching staff, and will believe whatever pick they make it is for good reason. Even if it is Gabbert who is the player I probably least want to draft.

What say you??

I was always weary of the Hurney/Fox combo when it came to the draft amongst other things. Now that Rivera has a big role on this I do trust that they will make the best choice and will feel confident that they have. Its tough decision and there are never any gurantees that you made the right pick and it could be years before we can 100% say we did or didnt.

Bottom line justified or not i feel forced to trust them.

With the first pick, yea I trust them. The only pick that would really make me slap my head and call Hurney a number of not nice names would be Fairley. Also, no trading away next year's #1. Prefer no trading of future picks at all, but if it gets us back into the 2nd without losing much next year (say next year's 2nd and this year's 4th or something to that effect) I'd be ok with it.

i trust hurney with the first pick...not so sure after that

Very true.... Houpefully after day one there is not a player that Hurney feels he has to draft.... Otherwise There goes our #1 pick next year to the patriots to move back to our 33rd pick....

When is the last time We had a draft without giving up a pick from the following year? 2007?

      Defensive Tackle: The Need that Shall Not be Named

      By rmoneyg35 · Posted

      Great post! Now that I think on it, I think D line might be our biggest need. We are one player away from having a potential disastrous defensive line. Brown and Wharton struggled last year and Wharton has really only been a rotational player that specializes in one thing. Can we count on him being a full time starter? Jackson is unproven. Do you want a starting defensive line of Wharton, Brown and Jackson? I don’t want to risk it.   I honestly don’t think linebacker is that big of a need. If Rozeboom ends up coming back then why get a LB?   games are won in the trenches and I would honestly prefer us drafting an offensive or defensive linemen over any other position in the first. The prospect you mentioned seems like a good prospect who has had some good production as well. Only problem is defensive line is a position that can take time for a player to develop. Will whoever we draft be ready this season ?

      Have they though? I'll give you KC with Kelce, but c'mon, they weren't winning those SB's because they had a great TE, it was a combination of Mahomes and some great defenses.  Will also give you the 49ers and Ravens with Kittle and Andrews, but even then, both have missed time with injuries the last few years. After those 3 teams, the best teams of the last 2-3 years have not had elite TEs The Eagles had Goedert, he's good, not great. The Bills have also had good but not great TE's The Rams have had average TEs and still consistently run 2 and 3 TE sets with them and still win. The Bucs have been winning the South without a great TE The Lions' Laporta is more a name than a highly productive TE. The Texans have had a serviceable TE in Shultz, but nothing too amazing. Some of the best TE's in the league the last few years have been on some of the worst teams.  McBride, Bowers, Warren, Njoku, even Pitts this past year. A true elite TE is absolutely a weapon in today's game, but I think the best teams use that money elsewhere and find serviceable TE play, usually through a committee where each TE brings something else to the table.
