    Waiting for Kyler to be a difference maker.

    2024 3rd round pick #66 is Trey Benson RB

    Reminder - many posters will insist RBs are super easy to come by, and therefore we shouldn't invest in the position ever. Sigh.

    So... 2024 UDFAs?

    Assuming they meant draftees... but I don't think that's how it works.

    Premature Prediction Thread 2024/2025 season

    Yeah I kinda wanted to be more bold with it, but I feel like I can protect my stance by feeling like he's gonna do it by volume alone.

    Marvin Harrison Jr. has 1,000 yards minimum.

    2024 7th round pick #226 is Jaden Davis CB

    I think there's a difference between "tolerated" and "outright expected." The difference is that I believe there's just a better chance we do look for some additional players possibly, and now are more in the position where we expect to win 6-9 games. Last year it was clear we expected to be the...

    2024 7th round pick #226 is Jaden Davis CB

    Sure. But last year was also different in that it was pretty apparent we were going to accept tanking. Looking back at where we picked and who was available after, I don't see a lot of guys we should have overwhelmingly took to replace Zaven at EDGE that are surefire fixes. Maybe we could have...

    2024 7th round pick #226 is Jaden Davis CB

    I mean, we could always add someone like Yannick Ngakoue. The offseason doesn't end today. Not that I'm proclaiming him as a major piece, but worth a tire kick for the regular season. We also can't give up on Ojulari immediately after taking him in the 2nd last year.

    So... 2024 UDFAs?

    Any thoughts here? With a 12 person draft class, is there anyone even worth considering? Maybe a Slovis or Tagovailoa for a camp QB arm and competition with Tune? Maybe a kicker?

    2024 7th round pick #226 is Jaden Davis CB

    I wish we could have gotten Brenden Rice, but this is fine.

    2024 NFL Draft Thread - Round 3 (no spoilers)

    I think a B. I didn't like the trade back, but MHJ, Robinson, and Benson are hits for me.

    2024 2nd round pick #35 is traded for #43 plus #79

    Posted before our pick. But I would have loved Kool Aid or other options over Melton.

    2024 3rd round #82 is Tip Reiman TE

    I liked Tip as a target, but in later rounds, like 5th or later.

    And also not 29. I love this pick. I've been screaming we need to do something like this for years. Thrilled!

    2024 3rd round pick #66 is Trey Benson RB

    I've been begging for a pick like this for years, love it.

    This is how I feel. Got too cute IMO. Not worth it for an extra third rounder.

    2024 2nd round pick #35 is traded for #43 plus #79

    Interesting... more picks when we had 11? Intriguing. I'm not mad but I would have loved a CB. Do we try to move back up? If so, what would we give up to do so?

    2024 1st round pick #4 is Marvin Harrison Jr

    I'm ecstatic! I've wanted him on this team for a year or more... what a pick.

    Man, thanks for recognizing that. I actually went to a (new) doctor this morning too - and she told me everything was on point with the surgery recovery. It was all a good vibe day.

    UNCENSORED 2024 Draft Thread

    I had a lot of people over tonight, the most I've had since I had my injury. TONIGHT WAS GREAT. I love the picks, I love the night I had with my pals. Everyone else seemed to like their picks (besides my 9ers friend with Pearsall). How freaking wonderful!

    What is your definition of "haul"?

    Sure, they "like" Brissett, but he's only a bridge QB at best. When are you going to end up at #3 overall with a top QB there again? He gives you the luxury of sitting the QB as well so they're not thrown out there into a horrible situation. That's not to mention that the timing fits well with a...

    Ossenfort is Kicking the Hornets’ Nest in this Draft.

    Monti, and no one else besides the Bears (seemingly) have any idea what the other teams are doing. It's been a long-standing thing, in the 20+ years I've closely followed the draft - everyone is trying to seed doubt and strengthen their position. It's smoke screen city, and all posturing. Why...

    What is your definition of "haul"?

    All of that is sensible - I don't really see why the Pats would trade back that far when they need a QB more than the Giants, in reality. But, I do understand they need to rebuild. I think they'd need even more than we would, and again, I don't know if the value for the Vikings exists to fill...

    Steve Keim Opens Up About Mental Health Issues

    I never said I was feeling bad for him. I sympathize/empathize, whatever. Like I said, I haven't listened to the podcast. I don't have a stance to "agree with." I think if people can learn from their mistakes and genuinely get better, I'll celebrate that. Maybe they can help someone else down...

    Steve Keim Opens Up About Mental Health Issues

    I think it would do us all a little bit better in the world to let people redeem themselves. Yes, the DUI(s) are bad but whatever he did when it comes to sports doesn't really count in the grand scheme of things. We've all done bad stuff or made poor decisions, and if you can genuinely say you...
