Making a Comeback
I think our offense is quite good on paper assuming Kyler recovers, what do y’all think?
Hopkins is still here (April)

Hold onto the ball, Murray!
I think Kyler's going to constantly get free rushers right up the middle, which will pretty much implode our offense.

My inside sources tell me Paris Johnson is going to play center. He took some snaps at center in high school, so he is very familiar at the position.
It was such an obvious flaw in the Oline and yet a player that played center in college and could be a plug and play quality C for the future was ignored
Once again we are going to try and put a square peg in a round hole by taking a G and turning him into a center
This is the NFL, not college where a position shift is not so much a big deal
NFL centers QB the Oline and anchor the pass rush
No QB is going to have any kind of success with rusher directly in their face all the time or the fear of
This will cause happy feet, unbalanced and rushed throws and not allow them to go through their reads

Draft Man
Having Hopkins still on the team is the best news I’ve seen after the draft. Having him and Hollywood, two good tight ends and Conner give us a chance on offense to be good.
Haven’t done much for the defense but this is where great coaching can make a difference and we will see. It’s clear to me our new coach wants a defense that’s quick to the ball because everyone he is bringing in has speed and is undersized.

must be a bit humbling for Hop
the team at least can say "we tried, but nobody values you like we value you"

Trade after the draft. Then you are trading for known commodities and not a pick that might or might not get you the player(s) you want.

Also thrilled Budda is still here.

What?
Taking College tackles and turning them into guards or guards to centres is hardly novel in the NFL. And many, including our dearly departed Rodney Hudson, hadn't played the position at all in College. We have a young Vet (Froholdt) with a few starts, L. Smith, who has been taking snaps, and now we have drafted a Guard with some of the necessary traits.
It's neither ideal nor dire.
I watched Smith go head-to-head with Donald last season, and I doubt that he's a guy who'll be pushed into Kyler's lap.
The coaching staff has time to evaluate and, if need be, find a VET on the FA Market.

On the spectrum, it's about one tick away from dire and about 99 ticks away from ideal.

Him (and his cap hit on the new team) won't be going anywhere at the trade deadline. If he's with us for game 1, he'll be with us for the season.
Yeah, he'll need to be traded before week 1.

Air Raid Warning!
PJJ is NOT playing center. That is a waste of a top 6 pick. He starts day one at RT or LT depending on Hump.

He can, and may, play guard.

LEFT Guard... IMO.

Your opinion?

I thought either Dhop, Budda, or Simmons would be traded during the draft. Glad all 3 are still on the roster.

I don’t agree but it still made me laugh.

Okay, 98 ticks and 2 ticks

I still think we'll see a reworked contract, not necessarily extension, for Hop and Budda, giving guaranteed money, but not more years.
