    We are talking about working against NFL level DBs here.
    We do not play modern football.

      Thanks and congrats on nailing some of our picks!

        Or both..
        Agreed...I say we send Rice, Johnson, and Q on a 8 week retreat designed by Ben Herbert...throw about 6-8 lbs of muscle on them...then while they work on evolving their receiving and route running skills, they can have roles as Jim's "Hanson Brothers"...throw them boys in when you really wanna shake up the secondary, or grind the clock down with the running game...plus their roles on special teams...we will be bullies at all positions!
        Adopted Bolt: Kimani Vidal RB

        Final prediction: Latham OT, Colson LB, Sainristil CB,Rice WR, Zinter OG, Nourzad OC, MacLachlan TE, Vidal RB, Lovett DT

          (speaking in Bill Belichick voice)

          BTW BB is awesome in his media role @ Pat McAfee Show.

          It's entirely different than his HC pressers.

          The guy is getting out more often.

            Post draft - this is where I see needs

            Center: unless they truly think Jaimes or McFadden are the solution. But I think they are going to wait for training camp to see what shakes out and maybe sign a veteran for cheap

            TE: I think Dissly, Hurst, Parham, Smart will be it

            LB: not so sure anymore

            Safety: yes.... and there are plenty of veteran options besides Simmons to choose from

              lol I noticed that too. He talks much more and enthisiastically when he is getting paid to talk football rather than begrudgingly mumble out a few words as a coach ina press conference

                We drafted Henley last season as well. Crap, was he a complete misfire because most draft nicks had him as #1-2 for LBs.

                  He's a good interview and very funny in this format. Knowledgeable as heck.

                  He is going to be on the Manning show Monday Night Football as well as Mondays with McAfee

                  A podcast with him and Saban talking football would probably be as good or better than James and Reddick talking basketball

                    I think Colson will be the starter with Perryman and Henley rotating on passing and running calls. Then Henley gets the nod in 2025 with Colson.

                        WR by committee > selfish ball hog fucks and makes offense more unpredictable and injury proof...
                        Let’s not forget about Hurst as well. Dissly has some good hands when called upon and they still have Parham.

                        I think Herbert is going to have Palmer and McConkey as his favorite targets this year. QJ will get his but won’t be relied on so much like last year. Like I said in another post, I would consider a 700+ and 6 TD year for QJ and good year.

                        I also think they go with 4 RBs and 1 FB this year. All of them will get some carries.

                        They are going to try and get the most out of Dobbins to get a comp pick. They are also going to want and get enough out of Spiller to see if he if he can be the number 2 RB in 2025 and let him walk in 2026 to get another comp pick.

                        A lot of people are down on Spiller, but I have some hope for him because the last 2 years he has been here, no RB has had success in the offense. I feel like the new offense will fit more his style.

                        It is nice to see them draft some speed

                        McConkey 4.39
                        Vidal 4.46
                        Johnson 4.44

                        Not the mention DD 4.36 as well.
