July 20, 20241 yr Having AJ is so fantastic. But that third WR role is a starter. He’s facing a pretty weak cover guy week in and week out. We ignore that position….a starting position. When our LBs have been good we’ve reached very high heights. Yet practically ignore the whole position group most other times.

Like trading back from 22 for a WR in that grouping. Never was all about Reagor, ever. It was identifying how several potential options. So you knew at least one, most likely more than one option would be available. Higgins and Aiyuck and others. Or in the other draft I discussed it about S. There was a grouping of four or five S at the beggining of the second area. Which three of those S choices have already shown well. That’s why if you actually follow my very sound logic is so very obvious how such a lie was perpetrated trying to accuse me of wanting to draft Reagor at 22. I wanted to trade back if we couldn’t move up slightly for Lamb. Trading back I had identified the WR draft class grouping having six or seven options after 22.

AR had two TDs scored by wide open WR that we didn’t cover. Those weren’t miraculous Mahomes needed passes. Really wasn’t any fantastic Mahomes work needed the whole game. He made a couple very key runs. But AR identified how if Mahomes just learned to take the super easy open underneath throws the Chiefs couldn’t be stopped. Pair that with their effective running game. Our coaching was giving up on all the RBs contributing anything and just put the ball in Hurts hands to make some play…any play to win the game for us. They had Mahomes …we had Hurts…yet we were the team that completely turned to relying on our QB to be the biggest star on that stage. It actually almost worked too!
July 20, 20241 yr Our team clearly puts in the most massive investment along the Oline. So I am very hopeful Cam fits in as close to seamlessly as possible. They also drafted Steen exactly for the purpose of taking over the RG spot. So this is all Rosie’s master plan at work under the tutelage and guidance of Stout. It very clearly has been well thought out and planned for ahead of time. Only thing missing now are the results.
July 20, 20241 yr It’s being reported five different teams were willing to meet Aiyuck’s new contract price demands. That puts a ton of pressure on the situation. The Niners allowed Aiyucks agent to shop him around and see if any teams were willing to pay him. He didn’t just find one…but five. That puts the pressure very clearly on the Niners to do something. The asking price at that time was reported at 28 mil per year.

As the player goes from year 2 to year 3.....after having 689 snaps under his belt, and moving to his natural position?

You don't see this because Opets was an " I called it" so in your view...and only your view, you can't see Jurgens as being clearly better and how he should excel moving to center. An easier position physically, one he has played his whole life
July 20, 20241 yr 2 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: You forget the drafting of Dickerson to takeover at C before that also Was that the case though? Or just that he was the best player available..by far. Who happened to play C his last year at Alabama due to best fit for them?

We were talking free agency...can't change the subject there. We all agree drafting hasn't been the strong suit. If it was, the results wouldn't be close if you also add in the Eagles ability to bring in free agents over the years. How many pro bowl free agents have the Eagles brought in over the last decade??? Idk who would have more?

What was the Pats post season record after Brady left? Was he a great coach,or was Brady a great player?

July 20, 20241 yr Author 3 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Who do you say is the best coach in the NFL? Most everybody I’ve heard ranks AR number one. In fact seems like the debate doesn’t even begin until number two. Sure isn’t Siri. Coaches are heroes while they are winning. Smart drafting and FO moves can make any coach look good,bad drafting will make any coach look bad. No "legendary" coach got there without talent players. As I keep saying it all starts there. AR is "good" every year because he has Mahomes still there??? Tyreek Hill was awful when he was there? Purdy looks good because of Caff and their O line and WR talent? As well as a top TE? Doesn't that make the coach look good? You dump coaches that can't get good, talented players to play as we just witnessed last year in the FLUKE season beginning we had, and why we made changes.It takes the right combination of all these aspects. The "best" coach is the guy that brings out the talent and can win with mediocre talent. One could argue Pederson,who was basically a nobody until we hired him will do well in Jax. Siri is now on the hot seat. We got him better coordinators,he has the player talent,it's win or he is out. There is no best coach for me,it's best team because every aspect of assembling a team needs to mesh and fit together

I don't recall the FO making that claim. He was a C when drafted but that doesn't mean he plays there and many C's become G's

When Howie trades back it's to get better talent value,not necessarily a "group of guys" at one position. The trade up for DeJean will be the value pick of this draft in time. He had round 1 talent and Howie pounced when he was still around in 2
July 20, 20241 yr Author 3 hours ago, cunninghamtheman said: Master Plan you have to get a read on the whole field of options. Make sure you can complete the whole roster. Always need to be adaptable. But identify where the dropoffs positionally are at. Prioritize accordingly. But you aren’t just targeting one player. Exactly the opposite idea all together. The whole idea is you need the best 53 man roster. Said every team league wide every year lol

The trade up for DeJean will be the value pick of this draft in time. He had round 1 talent and Howie pounced when he was still around in 2 We are also very very good at finding late round gems. Our scouts have to be one of the best scout groups in the NFL(lately). We'll see now if Jalyx is worthy of where we took him. I had him much later,but they continue to surprise me. Getting Ainias(my choice for us) was a great addition. I knew he would go late,but there were only 2 op slot guys and he was my first pick for that role. He reminded me of JJ. Not near the talent,but he had similar traits and he can also play outside in a pinch. It's not his best spot,he needs more work/coaching outside to get better,but he should be able to compete for the slot role right away. It will be Campbells job to lose and he very well may lose it to Ainias. We got some interesting late linemen who can also become useful even as BU's. I'm sure Howie will be watching for other teams camp cuts and I'm sure some we cut will get picked up. I will also be watching to outside WR cuts we can get as a BU. Ross is not guaranteed to make this roster

I don't think Dickerson was necessary supposed to be center, I simply believe he was their highest rated player by far. So they took him. Personally.... he may be my favorite Eagle. The dude is a beast... the key player on the tush push ...if you read up on him you understand the leader he was for Alabama. And he already graduated his undergraduate degree before even transferring to Alabama. Smart, tough, big, leader... that's what wins.
