Shockey

Just wanted to make a thread saying hats off to you sir.

Just watching the texans game, and the season, he has been pumped up, running his mouth and just overall getting this team pumped up. We haven't had a player like that in a long time and I personally hope we resign him and keep him here for a while.

When him and Smitty were pumping each other up on the field it made me think he'll be here to see this team develop into a monster. I think he's said something along those lines also not too long ago.

We have probably the most charismatic bunch of guys in the league with DeAngelo, Smitty, Shockey, Kalil, & Newton.

I hated him but now I feel different. I think he has more compassion for the game for Olsen. The only problem with Shockey is that he is near the end of his career. I know Tight ends can play for a long time so I could see Shockey around for 4 more years.

He will probably resign. I think he likes it here and he will probably get the most out of his career by staying here I mean he has his college coach as the offensive coordinator and very few systems use tight ends as much as we do.

With Olsen on the team and the extension for Barnidge, I have a feeling Shockey will not be back.

I love what he brought this year. But, this will be his last contract and someone is likely to pay him more after this season.

However, I think Barnidge could be nasrty as a pass catching TE in this offense.

I agree. I for one like that type of attitude, much like what you get from Steve Smith. We'd be crazy not to resign him. We'd probably let Bardrige go. No points for spelling.

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
