Does not sound good, we better hope our DL can provide pressure for more than 1.5 quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s unfathomable that Howie gets to keep his job. If we failed at Our jobs as much as he failed at his, we would all be living in a van down by the river. It’s ridiculous and it needs to be changed. He keeps his job because he manages the cap well and is pretty good in free agency. We need another guy managing the draft though. This is killing us.

Remember when people were so worried about losing him and he was thought of so highly and a few teams tried to poach him? Well the jets got him and they aren't exactly happy with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not easy, that's for sure, but I feel like these guys always outsmart themselves. If all the experts agree that DK Metcalf is the next best guy on the board, seems like you're setting yourself up for failure not to take the guy.

Bwestbrook36 Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Just now, The Norseman said: I mean, when you think back to Heckert and the earlier Andy Reid years, its hard to remember a draft where we didn't have some bone headed picks.

Obviously he turned out great but, he had injury history and not much of a resume in college. Basically all the teams had issue with him and his college career. It's easy to say we effed up on him now but, all signs pointed to staying away from him then as all teams did for the most part. We draft him and the injuries and the half arse production in college show up here and we are losing our minds. Obviously a lit of teams were wrong in that. This year they did go with high upside and not just college production so this class could work out great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can debate whether Metcalf was the right pick there or not, but one thing that seems pretty clear is that JJ wasn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brkmsn Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 You can make this thread about anybody on the offense yesterday and it's just as relevant. JJAW is going to have to prove himself to Wentz in a game by making a clutch catch when we need it. He had that opportunity last year on that 4th and 15 vs the Lions and we all saw what happened. I don't expect anything to change in the next couple of weeks unless Wentz has a good game and feels comfortable with the protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will still hold off calling him a bust till I see how he does as a starter till Alshon comes back. Sounds a lot lilke Billy McMullen.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard about his great off-season and this is what we get? Meanwhile DK Metcalf has another great game for Seattle. I will use this topic to post Whiteside's playcount and "production" (or lack thereof). Week 1 @ Washington: 28 Snaps - Zero Production Hey come on he lined up correctly on all 28 snaps and is a Good blocker, I even read he would rather be a good special teamer😒 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBW Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 3 hours ago, Br3 said: another poor draft evaluation and selection by the front office. This guy is Mack Hollins 2.0. Jerry Jones is twice, possibly 3 times Howies age and drafts better talent with his eyes closed. But they don’t have any character guys 😆 that’s the thing Howie and Doug hang their hat on. We want character guys that won’t put perform contacts so they don’t have to pay them what their really worth in 5 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eagle45 Posted September 15, 2020 Share Posted September 15, 2020 It takes about one training camp practice for a casual fan to see that he’s a practice squad talent. It’s horrifying that our scouting dept and GM actually pulled the trigger in round 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
