What would Hurney have done?

Just to pass some time before our next pick, what do y'all think Hurndog would've done in the position we were in today?

Try to keep the hate and unrealisticness to a minimum...remember Hurney nailed the past two first rounders.

although I think Hurney wouldn't have screwed up this since Star basically fell right in our lap....

drafting a DT in the first would have driven Hurndog to do the following:

2nd round: Mante Teo

4th round: Marcus Lattimore

5th round: Former QB WR project

6th round: fug it, let's draft another running back

Afterwards, probably pound a fifth of gin and use his tears as lube.

honestly we might've still gotten a good player, but Hurney never showed me any indication that he valued prospect DTs that much. I don't know if it would've been Star but he may very well have passed him over like the teams before us did. Maybe he'd still have been hesitant to draft Star given the health scare. I honestly think that's the only reason he fell as far as he did. Remember what Gettleman said about big men and what they allow you to do. Coughlin's philosophies left an imprint in him that Hurney didn't have.

The only thing he may have done differently was trade ahead of the Jets to take Star. Or he may have stayed put and taken him when he fell in our laps like Gettleman did. Word is that the scouting staff loved Star, and he always listened to them.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By strato · Posted

      To start with, you wouldn’t want to count up that value chart. You would see quickly where that is headed. But you basically did a quantity comparison, while ignoring quality.  I am looking at 2023 as the start, because it became all about Bryce.  2023 you have 4 picks plus DJ Moore for offense vs 2 (80 and 145) for defense.  2024 you got the 1st overall, the 32, the 46 and the 101 for offense vs 72, 157, 200 and 240 for defense. Leave the FA IOL out of it. Which was a crazy big  investment. But it wasn’t draft.  Anyway, that is basically 4 top 100 picks for offense and 4 picks for defense in 2024. Except they were 2 first rounders, the second rounder, and the 4th was really high at 101. Vs 72 and day three stuff. Please….  Second quoted/bolded… See you think we hate Bryce. That isn’t it at all. It is nice easy way to characterize us and discredit our talking points though.   Me, I do mostly hate watching him play. But I don’t hate the person. I hate the hell out of the stanning.  It started with the very first question I asked about his footwork, arm strength, and size. Height being the principle objection. I never even got to the durability factor. There was plenty without factoring that in.  But there was rabid opposition to even asking the question of what a couple of small fractions of a second extra closing time would do for the defenders.  What the extra time it takes to flip the hips would do vs a pass rush or on the other end after the ball is in the air. Split second more for recognition where it is going for the DBs.  The tippy toe backpedal.  That poo was a mess and it has always been mess but no Bryce fan wanted to hear it. “Go get another team to root for”. “It worked in the SEC it will be fine in the NFL you don’t know football you are just a hater”.  It got worse when the real games started. It has never stopped. It is nice that many people have left that train so there is less abuse but it hasn’t stopped.  So whatever…

      Whatever school you attended, I don't know and I don't care, but I would suggest demanding a refund.    Something was completely missed there.

      The draft capital since since 2023 has in no way been pretty even.  Especially when you zero in on day 1 and day 2 draft picks.  Draft capital has vastly gone toward the O over D.
