GM Steve Keim and Kliff Kingsbury press conference. 4/16/19

[dscher]

Because of a video quote from him the week leading up to a game? That is ranting, raving and holding in high regard all the way until today still? Bellicheck must want every good player he plays against because he does this weekly talking about his opponent.

I guess not rant and rave.. not saying he goes around pounding the table for the guy. I just get the feeling opposite of you guys who dont. Lol. I think maybe a little bit of both.. I might be looking a little too into it...and others may not be. So somewhere in the middle is the truth. Which still means Murray is the pick .

 

[dscher]

You got all that from one hype video taken out of context. For all we know he prefers Rosen.

I think you may be a gull a bull. Or maybe a gull a calf

Lol. I'm not usually the gullible type.. but my gut feelings are usually on spot. I guess we will know soon enough. Haha

Pretty much what I expected out of this kind of press conference. A bunch of nothing, maybe some slightly interesting press clips.

I didn't get the feeling from this that they were enamored by Kyler, but again, it's smokescreen central.

I'm just gonna laugh my ass off if we trade back, Kyler was the guy, and we get sniped in the #3 pick.

That sure would confirm SOC stuff...

Keim said he gets excited about a potential trade for No. 1 pick because “I like to do deals.” But “at the same time, I like good players.”

This is key, and why they are non-committal about the pick. Cardinals are genuinely open to doing a deal for Murray/Bosa if they feel it's a good enough offer and more than fair. It is their preferred outcome, imo. They are in fairly good shape at either position. Williams would seem to be more of the pressing immediate need along the DL at the moment, but not the same impact rushing the QB as Bosa. This is also a deep draft at DL, but with other needs more imminent in rounds 2-4 especially, it wouldn't surprise me if he's the pick either if they are pressed into keeping the #1 without a legit offer. Would it surprise anyone really?? Unspectacular yet solid and safe. Not the upside of either of the other two, but fills an immediate hole along the DL for 10 years at least.

Lots of glowing comments about Rosen but not one of he's our guy. Still think it's going to be Murray.

One thing that came out of the presser, at least for me.

"Josh Rosen, he gone."

So how did you reach that conclusion?

Body language, the eyes, smile, set of jaw or the effusive compliments?

I'd feel better about Keim if he kept to one open button on his dress shirt.

His half shaved upper lip was bugging me.

“Physical toughness, mental toughness, Josh Rosen has it all.” - Cardinals GM Steve Keim.

Translation - Company song is that he's tough and a pros pro. (Hopefully this is more than just the team honchos blowing smoke).

That’s just weird. I would prefer this.

Anything is better than Wilks’ weekly “The gameplan was perfect. The PLAYERS need to execute” I am at the point where I will be happy with Bosa, Quinnen or even Murray (with the caveat that Bidwill is ripped for years if Murray doesn’t work out)

 

[Metcalf Rules]

Keim: “I have good news and bad news. The good news, we’re drafting Murray with the first pick. The bad news, it’s Odell Murray, a wide receiver from West Texas Panhandle Baptist Tech Teachers Junior College. But he runs a 4.1 40!”

Didn’t you know? This board is laden with non-verbal communication experts.

Not showing their hand because the hand isn't over yet. They are trying to bluff for the pot because they don't like their hand. They are hoping either Giants or Raiders fold and give them an awesome trade down opportunity or for Redskins or another team in need (including ones with an aging QB) will give them a ton of value for Rosen. I doubt either will happen but we will be pushing it up until the pick hoping to draw the nuts on the river but not, and end up going with D. I was very confident we would select Bosa but now it's more of coin flip in my eyes.

Raiders can get Murray if we pass and Giants can get Haskins if Raiders take Murray. They don't need to give the world in this draft. I would surprised but not be shocked if Haskins came off the board before Murray if we retain #1 and don't take him.

If we're going to do the whole reading into every little nothing statement thing, then I'll point at that when KK was asked about his time with Rosen thus far and his grasp of the system, KK said "I think he'll pick it up fast." "He'll" meaning he will. Future tense. Meaning he sees Rosen picking up his offense in the future. That would be awfully hard to do if he was expecting Rosen to be traded before training camp.

Or it means nothing.
