Man, I love this place. All this speculation on the draft, and FA hasn't even started.

Gman uses FA to fill out his roster. Which allows him to draft BPA. Speculate all you want. It is just glorified guesswork at this point in time. Cuz we are going to draft for talent, no matter where that kid will play. Unless he is a QB, RB, or a LB, he is in play.

Ah the interwebz. It has given the couch GM a platform. And there was great rejoicing.

I think theres a reason no one has mocked us to get a safety but, you know how the huddle is. It's fun to dream....

IMO, mock drafts are like mother in laws. There are a poo ton of them out there. But nobody takes them seriously.

The draft is fun because there are more kids to pick from than FAs. But...until Gman is done in FA, we are just basically wasting our time. From what we know. We don't know Jack.

Mock drafts and fantasy football. They have no real application to real world football. But my Zod do fans love em.

I guess what I am trying to say is; We are close to being a very good team. So fans want to feel like they know what we need to do to become that team we want to be. It comes with the territory. Fans want to feel like they are a part of the process. Mock drafts feed that need.

WR in the 1st.

OT in the 2nd.

After that, I just want athletes that can compete. Yeah, that's the ticket.

Being the big hitter i think is just a bonus and an image of the old defensive style in the nfl. The modern day saftey is all about coverage at both spots which is why some of the switch between FS and SS. With the shift away from running focused offenses being able to tackle and coverage is all that you really need.

he is a huge hitter, but he goes for the kill shot, and does not wrap up on some hits, causing him to miss. does appear to get to the ball late at times, i really do not see all the hype in him. i watched several Louisville games and he did not jump off the screen to me.

This is what I saw when I watched cut ups of the Kentucky game.

Still though, pair him up with Vacarro and that's one scary combo. I don't see him getting past the Saints. The talent is there he just needs to work on his technique. Once it all clicks, he could be a good one.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Navy_football · Posted

      Roger all that. Do you think BY avoided any sacks last game? This oline is not what you're touting them to be. They are much better then 2023! Much much much better than 2023. But come on now, you'd expect this expensive oline (most are run blocking specialist) to at least dominate in the run game every game.  And... I keep telling you our WRs and TEs are not that good yet. I mean last Sunday was a prime example. Our receiving targets never make plays like those. Never. And this is from one of the worst teams in the league. Shough could have easily had 3 INTs if not for his receivers making plays on the ball. Our guys just don't do that. XL almost allowed an INT backing up out of bounds instead of coming to the ball. And everyone would have blamed that on BY. That's why he doesn't throw to that dude. I can't recall a game except maybe the second Falcons game - maybe, where I thought our receivers could possibly be better than the other team's. I think TMac and Coker have a lot of potential. But they're aren't consistent. But they're young and WILL improve. I'm confident of that.  I don't agree that BY was drafted to only stand in the pocket. He has always been best off schedule - for better or worse.

      Do you think you will get a direct answer?  Icky giving up 5 pressures (playing hurt in his defense) by himself and Bryce only getting sacked once tells you he played well in the pocket.  He extended plays and converted some tough downs.

      What gets this team past this?

      By frankw · Posted

      I've been very apprehensive about potentially firing yet another head coach. But Canales needs to focus on being a head coach first and foremost and begin handing off some responsibilities like playcalling duties and begin overseeing the entire team or we need to assess all possible ideal HC candidates in the offseason.
