  1. Good pt. IMO this was a huge problem w/ P. Smith when he was on the Skins. He was not disciplined enough to stay in his lane & stick to his assignment. You could blame a lot of this on coaching. I cannot imagine that Del Rio will allow any player to do this for an extended period of time. Can't wait to see his defense on the field.
  2. OK - using that logic how in the world did the two teams who played in the Bay area pass on Rodgers? The Raiders were going with Kerry Collins & would screw up years later by drafting Jamarcus Russell. They had the pick rt before the Packers & used it on a CB that would be gone a few years later. The 49ers selected A. Smith with the 1st overall pick. He has certainly had a decent career but by no stretch is he anywhere close to Rodgers (even before injury). These 2 teams had the chance to see Rodgers all of the time since Cal was rt in their backyard. My only pt is that yes perhaps Vinny screwed up on this one, but he was not alone. Pretty much the entire NFL screwed up on this one (just like they did for Brady & Wilson). Vinny made a lot worse mistakes & ones that were not shared among other organizations & GMs. Lets pray that we are past the pt of the bumbling FO for at least a while.
  3. What do you mean "passing on Aaron Rodgers when the opportunity was there"? Campbell was selected one pick after Rodgers. If you are perhaps suggesting that the Skins should have used their early pick (# 9 on C. Rogers) or traded higher in 1st rd - well - lots of teams in that draft passed on Rodgers for players who are long gone & made minimal impact in the NFL - Mike Williams, Troy Williamson, Travis Johnson (who), David Pollack, Matt Jones, etc. Hell the 49ers made a mistake drafting A. Smith instead of Rodgers. Hindsight is 20/20. The fact of the matter is that Rodgers was not viewed as favorably pre-draft - just like other overlooked QBs like Brady, Wilson, Prescott, etc. Cerrato made lots of terrible moves - on this one he pretty much missed like most of the NFL (even the Packers - who if they viewed him as he is today would have drafted him higher).
  4. Agree. If RG3 developed & became a perennial pro bowler no Redskins fan would have thought twice about that trade. The issue was that he only contributed basically for one season (for a variety of reasons). Substitute someone like Mahomes, Jackson or Luck for RG3 & it looks pretty decent (although no guarantee for long term success for the 1st two). I am against trading Young & again people have to stop looking at things strictly from the perspective of the 2020 season. Any remaining holes can be filled in 2021 & beyond. Also - I truly believe that these blockbuster trades are unlikely for anyone who doesn't play QB. I don't believe that you are going to get a RG3 type haul for Young even if he is a generational player. Burrow - perhaps.
  5. Yep & one of the few games where they played good D (except mainly for 1st 2 drives) was vs the Panthers. That win basically helped get Rivera hired as the Skins coach & in the process bring in Del Rio as the D coordinator.
  6. So - if this guy is supposedly the next Montana or Brady then we are supposed to believe that the Bengals will stick with freaking Andy Dalton instead? I realize that they are not the best NFL organization but I don't believe that they are this dumb.
  7. Tua at #2 - are you nuts? Most likely you won't even know if the guy will be totally healthy at that time. Man - the hatred for Haskins by some fans is amazing. Let's see how he develops by next season before so desperately trying to find his replacement.
  8. Well - agree to disagree. Also - if you draft Burrow you are not going to keep Haskins around & have them compete. That will just screw up any confidence in Haskins. If that occurred - which it won't - then you trade Haskins rt away ala the Cards & Rosen.
  9. Yep - forget trading down. Thank God that they have the chance to draft Young & now they have a chance to have a very special defense moving forward. Perhaps they will stumble a bit early with new schemes, players, etc. However - once they get used to things having players like Allen, Payne, I-Man, Sweat, Young & perhaps R. Foster being coached by Del Rio & co should be very, very good barring major injuries. If for some reason the Bengals take Young - oh well - let someone trade them the farm for Burrow. Fine - if they Bengals draft Young then the Skins will get a slew of picks & players for Burrow. I would not lose sleep over that.
