      PB is so watered down. The only guys that should get that are the ones actually named. Not the 5th fill in because nobody wanted to go or were playing in the SB. Great, as a RB it means your are in the top 3 or 4 of your conference IF nobody declines. Melvin was a fill in his first nomination. IMO he deserved it last year only.

        I get it, sometimes when you're typing and working thoughts just flow out.

        Heres what I meant;

        he screwed up by drafting bad lineman and or no lineman and then had to fix the mistake with a couple of band aid fa that have been hit or miss.

        He should either be focusing on drafting ol better (self evaluate the holes in his ol drafting) or sign more vets to drive competition. Not rely on a bunch of 7th round udfa talent to backup and push your starters. Those udfa late pick backups are one play away from being starters, ie.. barksdale and now Okung leading the way for tevi and Scott to be our starters.

              He's the guy who stupidly almost injured one of our running backs during a Sunday Training camp session from what I recall.

                Last year when we lost one of our many LBs to injuries.

                  LMFBO. Always fun to be corrected by someone hasn't the slightest clue what being all-pro means. :rofl:

                      Yep, he played against NE. Nuff said.

                        He drafted then cut Fluker who's decent starting OG for Seattle.
                        The coaches screwed the pooch on that one.

                          Fluker played very mediocre for NYG. There was a broad talent deficiency in that group.

                          He went on a training program in the summer before signing with SEA. There is some talent, as well as coaching where the message got through. DJ matured. SEA runs more than anyone. It's a good fit.

                          If you remember, Fluker's one half way decent season with us was when he had the experienced Uncle Jeromey Clary next to him at ORG.

                          Fans want to create a narrative that suits an agenda about Oline development. The reality points to something more complex.
                          We do not play modern football.
