The 215
The chick in the middle once said that a woman hitting a man is different because a woman's punch doesn't hurt as much:aicmon:
If that's the case then if a dude is weaker than the next dude he shouldn't hit him using that logic. That's why I don't try to hear people's grandstanding most of the time. Folks aren't even consistent within the same similar situation.

All that they are saying about is that he's working out in Alabama in their strength and conditioning program. If we can bring Ro back I think our D can legit be top 10.I still want a DT tho. I was as sold on Crawford/Mincey as most. Mincey was a DE that we moved inside a lot cause our DT was so ass. I don't know if Crawford is that good getting down field or if it was "someone has to shine"

I wanna DT first round

That be a waste thoughm we got brent back and he getting full offseason and training camp in. I feel a acomeback coming for.him and crawford is legit. Mincey is just depth and jag. I wouldnt mind spending a first round pick on the lb corp. With the loss of durant and carter, lees fragility, and ro's uncertainty i would feel real good about investing the first pick at the sam spot and move Lee to the will and leave Ro if hes still here at the mike

Brent sucks bruh. He's never mad a play, like ever. I went back and watched his tape since middle school for hope.

I wouldn't be mad at a LB but we need to address DT too

:beli:That's frustrating



Without McClain their most probably gonna go LB in the 1st, DT 2nd, RB 3rd
Rb might not even get addressed on draft. At least nowhere near the early rounds. The organization is big on ryan williams who most ppl have forgotten. It'll be a committee of McFadden, randle, and ryan williams.

As bad as I don't want to admit it....:wow:


Drafting defense (DT,CB,LB in that order) the first round is our best option..
My initial first round pick was Todd Gurley...:yeshrug:

Na breh. We need a bruiser who can wear the defenses down and kill the clock. We have a bunch of speed rbs on our roster and I dont trust Run DMC. If we take gurley or gordon in the first round we can still get an LB in the second and DT in the third. Remember, Sean Lee and Bruce Carter were 2nd round picks (albeit injured) and Crawford was a third round pick. Hardy alone will make this defense a whole lot better.

This super cheap philosophy is starting to annoy me. I'm glad we didn't overpay for AGED vets as in Ware and Hatcher, but Stephen Jones or whoever is running things now seems to think we are a mini-Patriots and we can get away with constant cheap contracts. You simply HAVE to pay for certain talent. We may have a great year this year, but just due to how everything is structured, all of our talented guys can now leave. Say Dez has an amazing year. Since he's not under contract, we either let him walk to some other team and we're back at square one waiting for some other guy to develop or we franchise him again, which will be a ton of money... or we can give him a contract, but due to franchising him the previous year, he will be even tougher to negotiate with. Say Hardy has an excellent year on defense. Teams will be coming with their checkbooks open.

It's like we're developing and auditioning talent for competitors.

And I am fine with that philosophy. The ultra expensive way wasn't working. We tried that route multiple times and it has gotten us .500 for the last 15 years. The Pats aren't the only teams that do this. Simple and to this point, if you know how to draft, you won't have to worry about free agency as much.

I hear you fam. It's just if the Boys do decide to 'run by committee' then our best bet is to stack up our defense early on and worry about offense last. If we do decide that we are going with a feature back, then of course snaggin' Gurley with the first pick is the most reasonable approach. I suppose we could do both though (draft RB and load up on defense).:ehh:
