Bryon Bell and Thomas Keiser make Second All-Unwanted All-Pro team

:party: Congrats to Bryon Bell and Thomas Keiser for making ESPNS Second All Unwanted All-Pro team.

The qualifications to make the All-Pro team is you have to have be undrafted or cut by a previous team.

I know Bell has had some bad games because of penalties and giving up some sacks but he has done decent considering the fact he is a rookie and ESPN has noticed him which makes me hopeful for the kids future.

Keiser has made some big plays in his short career, I know he is buried in the depth chart but maybe he will get a chance to get more playing time.

I think the best part of this is the fact they were undrafted. It looks great for our scouts and coaching staff to find and develop an undrafted player.

Byron has had some tough moments, but he has fought through it and gotten better little by little.

I think both of these guys will have long careers in the league. Keiser in particular may turn out to be a really solid player.

bell has played like a rookie starting at RT. he should be much better next year.

still....i'm not content with the idea of him or otah being our top choices at RT next year.

i hope we upgrade, but if rivera thinks we'll be ok with those two guys i'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
