I really don't understand people whining on here. Some of you think your better then Gettlemen at football knowledge or something. Gettlemen has work and help build chammpionship teams with a few different teams in his career. I think Gettlemen knows a little bit on how to build a solid team. These guys have not played a single down this season yet and people are over reacting. No one knows how the draft picks will fair. Heck we don't even know how Star will fair with this team. Stop judging Gettlemen and his picks until you see the final result. Plain and simple.

A lot of talent and now depth in our front 7 will make the secondary better than drafting a DB in the 5th round.

Klein is much better value than what was left at DB. It's a mistake to draft based on needs this late.

The hell you say

You must've forgotten 3rd and longs when tight ends shredded us for 4th qtr come backs.

I know that the chances of getting a starter in the 5th is slim, but I'd much rather take some fliers on secondary than I would have more fuging linebackers. When the secondary loses even more games for us people will be wishing it was addressed

Why are so many people on here looking for something to complain about? Its like many of you aren't happy unless you are bitching about something. Gettle's knocked the first 2 picks out of the park in my opinion. Its like you want 4th-5th round picks to be as sexy as a first round pick. Hate to break it to you but its not. A lot of picks are guys who are picked for depth, not necessarily to come in and be a starter. If they can develop into a starter, great, if not, then they are still solid depth guys. We need as much LB depth as we can get now that Anderson is gone and the injury history of Beason and Davis. Gettleman said it best yesterday in the presser, that they like guys who do things they can't teach or improve upon well(Althleticism, intelligence, measureables, etc.) and I agree with that assessment. Stop trying to find something to bitch about and trust Gettleman.

When the defense has played poorly over the last several years, wouldn't you say that much more often than not, it's a product of the front 7 rather than the back 4? I'm not saying we don't need upgrades in the back 4--among other things, we very much need to find someone to replace Martin, which Gettleman will do--but it's pretty clear from these picks that he's zeroed in on the real problems, which aren't necessarily the places wesometimes "appear" to be exposed on the field.

We have depth at LBer. Just makes me sick that a front office can't take a risky player that could vastly improve a unit of our team that is a weakness.

since we passed on him the last 3 rounds............ maybe we'll pick him in the 6th or 7th!

ps......no one else seems to want him either.

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      Everyone knew the catch was secured and didn't move. That was clear to the entire audience. The only ones who thought it wasn't a catch were in the NYC home office. They knew they'd just offer an apology the next day.

      Canales is holding us back

      By RumHam · Posted

      NEVER FORGET!!!!   Canales was on no one's radar. Tepper couldn't get anyone to come here. He was all in on Ben Johnson. Nobody wants to work with Tepper, however Canales tenure may prove important for the next guy. This guy still has no idea what he's doing.

      Going for it instead of leading by two scores in the 4th

      By CPantherKing · Posted

      The 4th down play was poor execution by Chuba. He didn't want to get physical like Rico and cut North South to lean on his blocks from Tremble and Ekwonu for half a yard. Also, the 3rd down play before that Bryce audibled out to a QB run and almost got the 1st down was on Chuba for not knowing the play call leading to poor execution. You can see Chuba's confusion when Bryce had to realign him. Then Chuba thought he was getting the handoff and was slow to develop his double team on the DE with Tremble. Then Chuba hesitated on pushing the block and just ran to the sideline making Bryce have to loop around him. This pulled the DE away from Tremble forcing Chuba to chip on the DE late and leaving the safety as a free defender. Chuba was suppose to double down on the DE to let Tremble peel off to the safety. This allows Bryce to set up his run to the inside or outside after the safety commits. You can also see Tremble walk over to talk to Chuba after the play and Chuba shrugs which tells me he didn't know what to do. The audible would have worked on 3rd and the dive would have worked on 4th. The plays were good calls and drawn up well. The question is why was Chuba unprepared for those plays in two critical back to back plays? I like Chuba as a 1st down RB and passing downs, but I have always seen him lacking the power and vision to be a short yardage power back. Chuba didn't come prepared for the Saints game or he was thrown into a position at the 3 spot that he was never prepared for.
