I kinda get this, yet to put this on other people at different points in their careers, as if they have to tow some amorphous company line, simply lacks intellect and fairness.

No matter what you...
I'm going to post an opposing point of view so please don't take it personal.
My question to you is... What do we really hope to get in return for this first round pick?
Answer... We hope to...
It seems there is a growing feeling on this board that Dontari Poe is the only possible Steeler nose tackle in the 1st round. And I don't know that this line of thinking is accurate. My purpose in...
Ha. I do think Brooks' pro day will be a factor. If he looks fat and runs slow, I could definitely see him slip to the late 4th round. And he hasn't played against a lot of elite competition. That...
In an earlier draft I had us taking Brandon Brooks OG in the 3rd round and Nic Jean-Baptiste NT in the 4th. I may go back to that. But since Brooks didn't get invited to the combine so I could see...
I believe our three biggest needs are: OG, NT, ILB (in that order). And we should leave this draft with three potential starters at those positions.
1.24 - Cordy Glenn LG (Georgia).
2.24 -...
Someone explain to me why we can't cut Farrior AND Foote? Sly knows the playbook. And he is faster and more athletic than Foote. So what is Foote's purpose? Depth? How about drafting a stud like...
Don't try to paint the Rooneys as meddling owners. I'm not buying. The Rooneys have as much patience as any owners in sports. They are the definition of the word opportunity. Whether it's a young...
What a fantastic photo! Please keep that in your sig.
Excellent points. One of the disadvantages of hiring a first time coach is he doesn't have a lot of experience scouting assistants. Tomlin did not put together a great staff initially but he is...
Compare Mike Tomlin's post-loss press conferences to Bill Bellicheat's post-loss press conferences...
I promise you Tomlin does not enjoy losing. He doesn't want to answer questions second...
Dee Dub-
Don't take this personally. This is just my opinion. But I think your views on Hightower's "value" are extremely over-rated. If I'm drafting an ILB at 1.24 the dude better be an f-ing...
I am at the point of saying, pick BPA available in the first no matter the position and then start drafting for value/talent/need in the 2nd.
We don't need to draft an ILB in the first. Not good...
I doubt it... I'm pretty sure Tomlin wasn't blind sided by this move. Our FO doesn't put on shows for the media and the Pittsburgh media got the BA firing wrong before and also got the Tomlin hiring...
Art II did emasculate Tomiln. And I'm glad he did. He asked Tomlin "nicely" two years ago to take charge of the ridiculous play calling. Tomlin did not. He asked Tomlin "nicely" last year to take...
Many players have described Tom Coughlin as somewhat of an "A$$".
Many players have described Bill Belichet as somewhat of an "A$$".
I am not saying Haley is on their level of play calling or...
Here's the thing. Tell me what Johnson does well?... Does he pass block well up on the line of scrimmage? No... Does he pass block well in the backfield? Meh... Does he blow open holes in the run...
I tend to agree with this. Obviously every team wants a great NT, but 3 first round picks on the DL? In a 3-4? Who's usually only on the field for two downs anyway? Where the DL is just supposed to...
Here is my thinking...
Hood is/was/always-will-be a 4-3 DT. He is out of position as a 3-4 DE. And he is out of position as a 3-4 NT. But the lesser of two evils is at NT. He is 6'3" 300 pounds....
You missed the best option...
NT - Ziggy Hood (He's 6'3" 300 pounds of NFL ready size and strength. And he already knows the playbook. Plus he's a better bull rusher on the inside anyway.)
...
If Brady or Rogers had Mike Wallace you'd see a completely different WR. You'd see much isolations and 5 yard cuts. Quick slants. You'd see Wallace crossing the field. Then when he did go deep, you'd...
I agree with everything you just said. Well done.
It's important to note that Art said, "Blue collar IDENTITY." I don't think he means simply calling more run plays. I think he means establishing a strong interior OL with guys who can move the...
Just so I understand... Are you saying you think Colon will stay healthy this year?
How many of you believe Colon will stay healthy at RT this season?
Colon will get injured, SSS nearly guarantees it.
(And when he does, who is his back up?)
