I thought Tom Brady did that already.

Desmond Ridder is not good, not a "toolsy" prospect. He's not "big" in the physical sense (he's tall, but thin). He's not particularly fast. He has an average arm. 

Pickett, Willis and Strong are all more interesting prospects.

Yeah, the more I watch of Ridder, I just don't see "it." Pickett looks like Daniel Jones to me. Strong looks like 40 year old Tom Brady. Willis is the project of all projects.

Strong and Corral are the only guys I'm interested in right now. Strong more than Corral.

Lol. Willis doesn’t even do well against garbage comp. Pickett has smaller hands than me. Strong I like but that knee is "freaky.”

Who was the last Buckeye to make the roster, excluding Malcolm?

Besides Rolle? Was it Kurt Coleman? I think that's a pretty small window.

The more I see of the two, Im sticking with Dean.  Seems more instinctual and has quick twitch playmaking abilities.

With Lloyd I wonder if hes just a really good athlete taking advantage of guys who arent.

Let's be real, they aren't taking a LB in the first. It'll be Muma or Brandon Smith in the 2nd at best.

I thought we liked freaky now?

Would Jamar Chaney and Brian Rolle be a better LB group than what we have today? Man, those were the days.

Depends if you're asking Baldinger or not.

That would work for me.

That's what the defense needs and that's what I'll take a risk on in the 1st. Give me the athletic guy with the size and speed. Lloyd played WR and saftey in high school, so you know he can move. Eagles need a LB that can cover and blitz.

I just worry that his advantages wouldn't translate to the NFL level where everyone is a freak. 

And is he a good scheme fit? Loaded question, but it seems like he needs to be around the LOS a fair amount, not sure if Gannon wants that for his LBs.

Yeah probably, I should just adjust my expectations now. 

But damn it would be nice to get at least 2 real difference makers on defense with those 3 first rounders

Did he actually make the 53?

I think you’re right, well done.

Only win with a QB on a rookie deal?  For it to be a myth, doesn't more than one person have to say it and believe it?  I have never heard of that "myth".  Tyrone Johnson is dumb.  

It has been said multiple times on this board by the Hurts Squirts.  Or S******s as we secretly call them.

as long as the "QB factory" isn't using the same nethods in picking a QB that they did when picking Hurts, then we might have a shot. But if the exact same guys are using the exact same methods of determining who to pick?    I'm not liking our chances. You have a better shot at winning the lottery on Wednesday.

I guess not. I think I was confusing him with Hakeem Butler and all the other rando WR's that were on the 53 at some point

More like simba

Howie is looking for some defensive studs.

Ah... perfect for a 4th and goal situation.

Simba...Mufasa....whichever.  I knew it was one of the lion king names.  Dumb movie.  I am glad one of them mfer died.  I hated the song too.  

 

Fact is, I got the LB right.  Meco

 

 

Nope - Brian Rolle.

Demeco was Mufasa.

Was it Hicks that they were calling Simba - idk.

I love Muma in R2. Just saw a mock where the Chiefs win the SB and still get Jameson Williams at 32 after the slide due to the ACL. The thought of him with Tyreek and Mahomes gives me heartburn.

I'm glad we got our Lombardi before all these young QBs emerged, sheesh.
