The Puppy Bowl posted:Real big mess. But come on, you already knew that. I'm holding out faint hope that they really do just make him sit and learn the entire season, instead of feeling 'pressured' to play him just because he was the #3 selection.

DangerKat posted:Overall, I'm very pleased that they walked away from the first round addressing their two highest needs. I doubt they'll trade back into the 2nd but I sure would love it if they did so for Lee. Why? You already have Jennings and Patterson. If anything you need a redzone threat to pair with Kyle Rudolph.

Players in green room still Jimmy Garoppolo, QB, Eastern Illinois Cody Latimer, WR, Indiana Marqise Lee, WR, USC Jordan Matthews, WR, Vanderbilt Cyrus Kouandjio, OT, Alabama Kony Ealy, DE, Missouri Ra’Shede Hageman, DT, Minnesota Timmy Jernigan, DT, Florida State Out of all them I could see Garoppolo and Kouandjio waiting a good long while

Great White Hope posted:The Browns. I liked their trade backs but the trade up for Gilbert was confusing. I don't think they had any chance of the Vikings taking him or trading the pick to another team. Manziel is Manziel. He'll sell tickets, he might even be really good too. Pairing him with Gordon and Cameron is smart, and I believe they'll be targeting O-line or HB with their next selection. Ozu posted:Doltos, Sniper, because he's always headhunting.

Doltos posted:I wanted them to land Bridgewater really badly but the prospect of the Texans taking another Carr is hilarious. Top QBs left are Carr, McCarron, Mettenberger, Savage, and Garoppolo in that order. I agree. Take Nix and Murder the Borts.

This idea that rookie QB's need to "sit and learn" especially on teams with no established starters is just silly common wisdom. The way they learn faster is by playing and if a kid is going to be "ruined" by rookie struggles than he isn't going to be a good QB anyway.

Doltos posted:
Well you hated the Hakeem Nicks pick so I'm just going to assume ODB owns now the question I have is -is he a good route runner? After Randle and Manningham vs Cruz and Steve Smith it's clear Eli loves players who will be where they are supposed to be, even if this new offense isn't quite the same.

As someone without any sort of rooting interest in the AFCN, it's cool that the Browns took JFF because in can either enjoy watching him crash, burn, and get murdered by angry defenses all year, or I can watch him do cool things for a team that has been miserable for the entirety of my accessible consciousness. I guess what I am saying is yay football.

I think it depends on what they want to develop. I really don't think Aaron Rodgers would have panned out if he were thrust into the starting spot while still un-Tedfording his mechanics.

You can ease a guy along by using simple concepts, not asking him to do over much while starting him. Just look at Joe Flacco, Russel Wilson, or most other successful QBs over the past 7 years.

DangerKat posted:Jennings is in his 30s and it'd be great to have talent insurance given the team designed his contract to be cutable after this year. Cordarelle Patterson is going to be such a stud in the NFL. Hopkins is great and all...but man, he's got Randy Moss level of potential.

Nah. Patterson is great but he's more the perfect replacement for Harvin than he is anything like Moss.

I'd almost say Harvin is his floor at this point. I agree he's more like Harvin right now but if he develops his route running a little more he could get pretty drat close to Moss.

Febreeze posted:Well you hated the Hakeem Nicks pick so I'm just going to assume ODB owns now Turns out I was eventually right about nicks ODB is route running ready. Great hands, at least with circus catches. My issue is I'm not sure if he can create separation since he's only an above average athlete. ZenVulgarity posted:Doltos drop a load on the bucs and the giants Covered ODB but I really wanted Evans. NFL ready body, kind of slow in game, might not be able to get a lot of separation but doesn't need to with how huge he is. Jon Baldwin type. That's not an insult, Baldwin was supposed to be pretty great when he came out. Thought you guys were for sure going Manziel or some other QB for Tedford to strangle to death.

The way they learn faster is by playing and if a kid is going to be "ruined" by rookie struggles than he isn't going to be a good QB anyway. If his mechanics are dicey at best, then yes, I think he needs to 'sit' and un-gently caress those before he has to face Watt/Clowney-like pressure in his face twice a year. As long as Henne isn't Schaub-ing out 1+ pick-sixes per game, I don't think Bradley and Caldwell are (or should be) under any pressure to get Bortles in ASAP. Gabbert was probably never going to be good, but insisting on playing him over Henne through torn labrums and broken fingers on top of just being generally Not Ready pretty well sealed the deal on him never being more than a McCown.

Rap posted:Wait we really are treating Daltos as an expert :Wee-Beystare.gif: I dunno I figured if I got him talking about Michael Sam he'd say something dumb and be probated again by now or hilarity would ensue. Unrelated, but Dave Gettleman doesn't take too kindly to all of the talk of Benjamin having the dropsies. quote:"This guy has unusual ball skills,'' Gettleman said. "He has what we call a very big strike zone. One of the things that I have done with the scouts is, ‘Does he make catches when he is pressured?’

Instead of just looking at the drop rate you should look at the game reels and determine WHY his drop rate is that high, and then you'll have a better understanding of why he sucks
