Huh, wikipedia has Latu like 45 seconds ago, before Goodell said anything.

What the hell dude, you’re tracking the draft via Wikileaks…?🤣

ESPN has been talking up JJ for so long they’re surprised he’s still on the board. You did this to yourself! 

You guys watch ESPN, 🤣😂😅🥲

Such a great feeling to see the draft room with Daniel Snyder NOT in it! 🥹☺️😁

My take has been well established, I think, but drafting Daniels and trading back up for Patrick Paul would make my draft night feel… not as happy as I’d like.

 

JD I’m “okay” with. His upside is fantastic. Can live with it even if I don’t outright love it. The potential is there.

 

But trading back up for Paul rubs me the wrong way. 

With you on the trade up K-Dawg, honestly i don’t want to trade up at all. I look at the wealth of picks and think Peters could really rebuild our roster with those picks, not give em away for a late first round tackle who may not be better than what we currently have. I say let the draft come to us and stockpile talent.  TBD.

You may well be both the smartest and most disciplined man on this forum. I envy you.

 

Personally, I lack the discipline to stay away so long.

 

I need my daily Extremeskins fix, or I get the shakes. lol

Oh I still get my daily fix, got to keep up with the news, but the constant belittling, arguing, and name calling makes my head hurt.  
 

I eavesdrop a little, call people idiots in my mind as to not provoke the Jumbo ninja 🥷, and I figure once Thursday happens, all will settle down, and intellectualism will return.  Then I can be an undisciplined idiot again too!🤓

Really enjoy the back and forth on this forum. No doubt in my mind Washington has the most intelligent fanbase in the country by a country mile. 

Dude, I sense your sarcasm, it’s why I stopped posting weeks ago.  This place has turned into nonsense, just arguing the same tired points over and over.  I’m waiting to re-engage in a couple of weeks after the draft weekend meltdown and folks put down the pitchforks down…

There's a lot of talk about both Mayes and Daniels being blue chip prospects at #2 in a general "different but equal" sense, desirability wise.

 

But going by posts, most folks here who are focused on those two have long had their fave locked in and have a very strong preference for their guy over the other guy. It isn't close for most.

 

Also going by posts, most seem to see one as much more likely to bust than the other as opposed to seeing one more likely to boom then the other.

 

By the time the draft is actually happening, mental/emotional fatigue will have sent some of them into the JJ camp. 🧐😛

 

 

By the draft????  some have given up and prefer to trade down for Penix.  By draft night I expect folks to start taking shots of Jäegermeister with one eye closed…

Not me.  I think we do it too, but it's a **** up and I'm going into this eyes open.  If we do this and Jayden is skinny Justin Fields and Drake Maye becomes Josh Allen part 2 in New England, Adam Peters's career is over.

So is it also over for Peters if Maye becomes the Next Mac Jones and Daniels is the next Lamar Jackson / Stroud. Equally possible possibility…

for the record I don’t care who we draft at this point.

If belichick was still there I'm sure he'd jump on Maye and do an absolutely spasmodic happy dance but only on the inside.

 

On another matter, it's quite the deal when you have such a disparity of perception about a guys' five years of college ball, with all the media coverage of the games, all the stats for each season, and all the film of the games, that a few here say he had only one good year and a few insist he played pretty good all five seasons.

 

I salute the analyzers! 😛

Diggs is a lot of baggage. Houston got screwed.

 

Thoughts on if Washington went after Aiyuk? Couple mid-round picks and Dotson? I'd do it.

Nah, I still think Dotson has tons of potential, especially in the slot with a coach that knows how to calls plays and set up a defense. I’d rather get a burner to pair with Terry and I believe this draft is deep at wideout of all shapes and sizes. I trust Peter’s to find another Aiyuk, if that’s what Kingsbury want, his track record demonstrates this ability to draft receivers …

4 hours ago, KDawg said:

I think it’s also smart for Buffalo. Diggs had a way of getting in Allen’s head.

That’s why i appreciate Terry so much, 1b wideout but a true pro and locker room leader, he’ll be great for the rookie QB. Just need a guy to take the top off of defenses so you can’t double Terry. 

Happy Easter, He is Risen indeed!

spjunkies is all fired up for this post right here.

 

Edit: By the way. Pretty pathetic how nice UNC's practice facilities are compared to the Commanders. Maye will have quite a wake up call coming if he is the pick. 

 

 

 

Obviously the practice facility is too small to contain the lasers Maye is about to throw with his howitzer. The ceiling is way too low! He’s gonna knock the I beams down! Idiots…🧐

I agree that any of the three, and several of the others frequently mentioned, can be big stars. And they may not. Nothing is a guarantee to me.

 

But I do like our chances whoever it turns out to be. It's gonna be a more legitimately hopeful season than we've had in a long time. 

I’m ready for wait to be over and we know who we have so we can argue more about who was right and wrong 😑. 

I kid, I’m really excited to be a fan again and anticipate going to training camp so I can sit in the hot sun, and fuss and cheer them on like an old man!

I am trying to think of a supreme QB athlete who has won a S.B. and that is the goal. I can think of many processors that are not super athletes. Brady, Stratford, Mahomes, Manning's, Foles, Rogers, Roethlisberger........ No winners that I can find?  He does not have to be a super athlete for me, and does not have to be a super runner. A RB has a short life in the NFL, why draft a hybird RB/QB? His career is going to be shorter most likely if you use him that way. 

  

Steve Young? Patrick MaHomes? Russell Wilson?  Supreme athletes indeed!  And the list is long of almost “winners” if your definition of winner equates to Super Bowl or bust.

So now we have at least a human being with a beating heart who can play LT in the case we need him to on the roster.

 

That's kindof a pressure valve release to an extent, but I don't think it changes the overall plan.

 

You draft premier positions: QB, LT, CB, WR, Edge.  They all get paid too much to go sign vets in FA.

 

We have 6 picks in the top 100, or something like that.  The #2 pick will be a QB.  

 

I would fall over dead if in the next 5 picks they don't somehow land a LT, CB, WR and Edge.  Maybe not to start right away, but a player with a lot of upside that can be a really good starter fairly soon.  

 

They will also draft a TE, probably 2.  But my guess is that's either with one of the later 3rd round picks or the 5th round pick.  

 

I like the approach, but I think we've brought in enough edge help already to not spend more draft resources there.  I think they still need interior OL help.  Great guards can be found in the 3rd round.  I think the LT / CB need may reduce how far we can stretch those picks.  I'm leaning towards AP trading back in the 2nd to get more picks (maybe another 3rd / 4th), but that may hurt the quality of the LT / CB prospect we're able to get. 

Not sure how he does it.... It's the only thing that still makes me nervous.  It's vital we have a quality starter protecting the rookie's blind side, and I'm not a fan of the corners we have currently.  In theory, I'd like LT, CB in the 2nd; guard, TE, WR in the 3rd.  Maybe I'm overthinking it, but it feels like we'll need to trade up to get a good LT, which I don't want to do. I dunno.

A second (imaginary) kewpie doll goes to whoever can figure out what my profile really refers to, specifically the "location", "zip code", and "occupation",  WITHOUT GOOGLING IT--Gentleman's honor.

 

 

 

My guess is stationed paramedic.  Too cold for me brother. Jeebus!

Interesting take from Hasslebeck on Drake Maye.  Measured perspective that he thinks Maye is by far the best prospect in the draft and Maye is a top prospect for the decade.  Wondering if NFL GMs agree and we may have to select between Williams and Daniels.

During Whitt’s press conference, he mentioned separating young guys from vets because he likes to give them a chance to ask questions they might hesitate to ask with the vets around.  At the time I remember thinking it made a lot of sense, but also a part of me was like - you’re a rookie, of course you’re gonna have questions.  Coaches should just tell them to not feel any way about asking those questions…

 

And then we added Bobby ******* Wagner.

People in general don’t like being seen as “not knowing.”  It’s one of the dumbest things to me.  If you don’t know, say you don’t, then learning can begin, as opposed to silent ignorance.  

Some of my greatest lessons came from admitting I didn’t know.  But that’s the value of true leadership in the locker room. A leader like Wagner will naturally attract guys to learn and be better, I expect he will demand accountability not only thru action, but be vocal about it.  My best mentors are like that, helped me reach levels I didn’t know possible.  I’m really excited for my boys!

Let's get Simmons amd  xavien in and I'd be over the moon

The more I think about it, I don’t think paying the high end guys is the plan, nor should it be. There should be some responsibility from the coaching staff to “coach em up.”  
 

Players should be developed and groomed into the “all-pro” players we covet.  We’ve brought in culture builders, tone setters, that the younger guys should aspire to.  Peters is doing his job as GM, Quinn and his staff have to do the other half, player development.  
 

Think I’ll go to training camp this summer, should be some chirping and helmets popping!
