Offseason moves and draft.

Sign Lardarius Webb CB/KR/PR (2013 Draft Tender)

Draft

1 - Quinton Coples DE/DT

2 - Lavonte David OLB

4 - Casey Hayward CB

5 - Matt Reynolds OT

6 - Shawn Powell P

7 - D'Anton Lynn FS

I really like Ladarius Green (TE) but feel we have other positions of need to address.

As for the "scat back" I'm relatively clueless as to who we should pick up.

Not sold on Still, Brockers or Kirkpatrick.

1st pick subject to change if Blackmon, Kalil or Claiborne fall.

Trade down scenario with Benglas or Patriots for two first round picks my choice would be Janoris Jenkins and Courtney Upshaw.

I saw a mock draft on footballs future giving us 4 DTs...kinda ridiculous because they played well at the end of the year, but if the coaching staff thinks brockers is an impact player then we should take him. I'm hoping curry falls to our second round pick because I think improving the pass rush is a must

That's why I like Coples with our first pick. He has the ability to be very disruptive against the pass and run.

Apparently he's tearing it up at the senior bowl, if his heart is in it I'd take him

Coples does not love the game. He has trouble self-motivating. Vinny Curry on the other hand LOVES football, and you have to force him to stay away from it. That's the kind of player I want. Those are the players that become great..

That's why I said I want curry with our second pick, he's relentless and mayock was saying how he had unexpected power and held up better against the run than he thought. He did well against mike Adams in 1 on 1 pass rushing and shows that he can do it against good competition

I love the game... Can I be great? :frown:

My ideal draft, which I know 99% won't happen, would be to trade down with the Bengals for their two first rounders. Take Brockers and Jenkins in the first, then Dwight Jones in the second. Fourth through sixth round get some combination of OL, OLB, and Ron's coveted scat back (I really like Isaiah Pead and Ronnie Hillman; Chris Rainey would be nice too). In the seventh, I wouldn't mind getting Baker's replacement or just add more depth to the defense (maybe Asa Jackson or Dwight Bentley).

Edit: Actually I think it'd be better if we take either Lavonte David, Bruce Irvin, Bobby Wagner, or possibly Zach Brown in the second, then take a receiver later like Brian Quick, Tim Benford, Marvin McNutt.

    • Has anybody actually said anything of that sort? (if they did, I missed it) I get why some folks rely on stats. I don't, and honestly I'm not sure why people keep trying to convince me I should. (it ain't gonna happen) 😕 Consistency is my big thing too, and the lack of it is why I want to move on from Bryce. But again, that's an argument I make without denying that he can indeed play in (and yes, win) NFL games. Hating bad QB play is fine. Denying when you see good QB play is silly. Let's be real for a second... This may not be you specifically, but there are some folks for whom Bryce can do absolutely nothing to win their approval. Some are always gonna want a bigger / stronger / faster / more athletic (in some cases, Newtonesque) quarterback even if Bryce does start to play consistently. At that point, they'll just shift the argument from "we can't win with Bryce" to "well, we can't keep winning with Bryce" 😖 You know all this as well as I do. So again, I want to move on from Bryce as well. I'd happily (hell, merrily) keep him as a backup, but I doubt there's a realistic path to that happening. But no matter what, I'm gonna keep my debate points based in reality, and I'm not gonna be responsive to "he just sucks" level persuasion. Is any of that unreasonable? 🤔
    • Apples and oranges.   No one is coming for Jon Snow and the neutral party when they compliment Bruce when it is just normal talk about a game.  Which is the literal picture you are trying to paint above.  I mean that’s exactly what you argued. if you start a thread that is about the future of the franchise at QB going forward at QB and what we should do or are thinking! Yeah, the anti Bryce crowd is going to very vocal on that thread because the literal topic is extending Bryce and the future at QB (which is what an anti Bryce position is literally about.  Moving on.  The future) This thread? I literally called out people in their feelings wanting to make this about Bryce and their hurt feelings eroding over.  You can find where I literally calls them out go make another Bryce thread if they didn’t want to talk Saints and the most relevant thing about them.  And the thread went exactly as we all knew it would.   Bryce deserved player of the week talk for Atlanta.  I have always acknowledged his great games.  A shame there are only two 
    • Then the offense will be the same up and down underperforming offense they are this year and our FO are filled with idiots.
