Anyone finding possible OLB's that can be effective DE's in Fangios defense? I'm finding these positions getting more blurry every year(AKA hybrids) Maybe it's just me losing brain cells

Feels likely to be Fangio’s last season. Are we drafting players for his D?

But isn’t a valid point we need other teams to lose just for the chance to get the 2 seed and by the time we found out those teams lost we had already went a whole week prepping the backups as the starters for the week.

Now if Hurts didn’t blow the Chargers game different story… The bears Vic got completely outclassed by Ben Johnson ground game destroyed him and the offense could do anything…. Then we blew the Cowboys game.

If we were lined up for the 2 seed we would be in a spot of we already had or only needed to win to get it wasn’t the case we needed other team(s) to lose and us to win to get that chance.

You can’t really say I’m just talking out of hindsight either. I was pumping two seed all the way up until we blew it.

Shhhhh….Siri more focused on trying to force his QB to hesitate

My Happy Easter mock draft

IDK we have put off getting Lane's replacement for too long. IMO that time has arrived. FJ is fine as a BU, but we need the next pro bowler. Our offense runs through the O line and while Warren would be a nice parting gift for Fangio I can't see him going first for us. Many ways to play this. The lingering question of AJ staying is HUGE. Nice deep WR draft. OT,S,WR,edge, all on the table at 23. Going to be boatloads of fun watching Howie move around this time. If AJ goes and others on 1 year deals would not shock me if we took 2 WR's in this deep class

You admit our O complete philosophy and team building completely surrounds Oline. That exactly should result in rushing the ball approach. That thinking just has to lead to leaning on that advantage.

UCLA coach preached the team’s talent was their ‘Floor’ …character of the team together would prove to be the team‘s ceiling.

What I’ve attempted to state in six thousand words and paragraphs myself. Listen to the champion coach. At least contemplate and consider this deciding championship factor.

Volunteer not a winning strategy for Hurts to try and laser passes in Favre-esque. Not his strength or game.

Every single member of our Oline wilted and declined this past season. With you directly stating your team philosophy surrounding Oline….weird it’s not the first issue you point out about this last season.

Oline declined from debatably the best in 2024…down to bottom half in the league.

Yet just hear #Hurtshate

We prioritize Oline yet it sunk to bottom half of the league. Don’t prioritize O coaching…yet even that lowest bar sunk down to Siri promoting his puppet. All evidence proven Siri just not qualified O mind. All evidence proving Patullo nowhere close to a strength his entire time as Passing Game Coordinator

AJ probably gone this year, Hurts next year(no loss)

14 inches further broad jump than any other DT prospect

Kyle Hamilton - 0.3
2. Riq Woolen - 0.5
3. Quinyon Mitchell - 0.6
4. Jamel Dean - 0.6
5. Deommodore Lenoir - 0.6

yards per snap allowed in man coverage among defensive backs in 2025

Last year, he allowed just 54.2% of his targets to be caught and has never allowed more than 57.7% in his four years in the NFL.

I would also pick up Nowakowski as a UDFA TE(Indiana) And there are a few additional UDFA's like DT or 2 Maybe an added WR if we don't draft 2 outright. Even another OT to bring along as a BU First 4 picks will be crucial ,but good players can be had in 4 also, after that are the longshots and we still are working on the next rugby guy

Pretty sure the OL was still graded as a top 10 unit last year even with everything….people really need to go watch bad OLs when our unit is less then the best everyone acts like we have a horrible unit.

I'm wondering why we don't have more 30 visits scheduled. I wasn't expecting us to have anyone in over Easter, but I see no one scheduled for later. Kind of odd. Possibly they have their board set already???? Tech would allow them to watch vid(film) while they had a prospect on conference call asking them about things in the vid, not actually working out for us in person. I still believe OT will be the first pick followed by edge. I can't rule out a DT prospect in other rounds as Ojomo and Carters contract are both up in '27 and I doubt we could afford to keep both,so possibly a DT addition to prepare for that scenario,yet we haven't had any in for 30 visits
