I know the conversation has move on but I have to give you some love for being the first person I saw promoting Love at 7 for the Commanders. At the time as you may recall I objected, thinking that was not a smart pick for several reasons. I've come around and now it looks like Love won't even...
It's a bit frustrating that we never get any info from our front office, I heard Keim say he didn't think they will go big on a FA TE. But it's also good that this group is great at keeping info in house.
If they don't take a WR early and draft one in the 3rd that just screams of filling a need over BPA. I have to believe that they have inside knowledge about acquiring Aiyuk and that is factoring into their decision making to some extent.
You make a good point, and I'm not doggin Ettz. He played far better than most of us expected here. But the obvious answer is YAC. With Chig we will see more big plays, Ertz caught it and fell down.
I keep wondering what their plan at WR will be if they don't go Tate or another WR in the first. Surely they can't be expecting a third round pick to fill the void, and that would force a need pick over BPA. I'm fascinated to understand what they know about Aiyuk. Do they kind of feel he will...
I'm so happy to read that you will be retiring soon Boone, you picked the right time of year. I retired the first of May, THIS is the time of year to pull the plug and enjoy the summer. Can't say enough about how great it is to be retired.
And then they sign with the team who makes the biggest offer anyway. If this were true the F- Redskins would have not signed many free agents, as it was they signed a ton based entirely on the $$$$.
Delane and Tate appear to be need picks who can contribute immediately. While Styles could end up being a real impact player but it will take time. As someone pointed out DQ is on borrowed time,
AP needs a winner. I fear they will pass over the better long term player for these reasons.
I just don't want Love to go to the Giants. I can't stand this wait, draft can't come soon enough for me. I would be fine with any of the names we have discussed. They all seem like good prospects for different reasons.
The team bring him back and giving him a chance to make the roster is one thing, thinking he can be a legit WR3 is something else entirely. I have no problem bringing him in, there is no downside. Again my thoughts are fans are too optimistic about the outcome IMO.
So because he says he is committed, is working hard and wants to play with Jayden that means he can become a legit WR3? Doesn't every player claim they are working hard? Multiple good college players loaded with potential picked in the first round bust in every single draft.
MM was a fine backup, Burkes just couldn't get open which was a problem for the receivers all season. Hopefully it was mostly scheme but people are getting way too excited about a receiver who hasn't done anything in 4 seasons.
This will be his 5th year in the league. I know he has had injuries but that's enough time to get a feel for who he is. In this league you only get so many chances to prove yourself. Again he had 8 games to show us that he can get open and make plays and it's not like he was playing with Heath...
