Wait Wait Wait... Lets All Take A Moment To Laugh At The Bucs.. & While Were At It The Falcons, And Saints* Too.

As if not having the Falcons and the Saints* picking in the first round was enough of a pleasure this draft, the Buccaneers robbed THEMSELVES of one of the six elite prospects and drafted a type of safety that is slowly being phased out of the league. On top of that they TRADED up for a RB.

Bahahaha.

Lets get Jenkins and close this draft out for our NFC South brethren. We just got a 12 - 15 year stud in Kuechly and if we get Jenkins we got a potential shutdown CB if he follows and listens to his teammates as they guide him on his NFL journey.

Oh and another laugh at the Buc's picks, could it have gotten any better? They get a 4th round pick for giving up Mo Claiborne.

Arent you the one that started a thread about how it was an amazing connection that Andrew Luck was going to the Colts because horseshoes are considered lucky? Yea.... you were...

No I ABSOLUTELY was NOT. I'd challenge u to find it, but it doesn't exist.

That's twice you've failed in one thread.

For now I agree with OP. I texted my Buc fan buddy afterward, as much as I didn't agree with our pick at least we didn't trade ourselves out of taking Claiborne and take a Safety with a top 10 pick. Barron will be solid and all, but I think he was severely overdrafted. I don't think he's the next Polomalu or anything like some people are saying. I won't hate on the trade up for the RB, because if I recall correctly they didn't give much to move up (think it was like a 4th round pick?). They needed a RB and apparently they correctly guessed the Giants were going to take one, so they gave up a measly 4th round pick to get the one left they wanted. But still, it hasn't been a high impact draft for them so far.

So I'm sitting here watching Sports Center and on the eve of the draft spent some time reflecting on lat year, and this is what I came up with...

We'll never really know why Luck stayed at Stanford last year. We could speculate that he wanted to finish school (I don't believe this theory) or that he simply didn't want to play for the 2-14 Carolina Panthers (my theory)

Which brings me to my whole point, and I find it pretty ironic and funny.

Had Luck come out last year, he would have been in great shape, with several weapons at his disposal.

Now though, he's going to a Colts team that just got absolutely gutted! I mean they have Wayne and that's about it.

I just thought that it was pretty ironic, and I'm glad he stayed In school, after all, we have Cam. I'm really glad it worked out the way it did... I just wonder ifLuck could do it over again, I bet he would.

Oh im sorry, you're the one with abandonment issues.

Your thread is pooty and u know it.

It's also redundant... Meaning that this is a repeat thread! The original was created more than 2 hours prior to your thread.

I guess that makes u the one with reading comprehension issues.

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
