NeverSurrender

I think Moreau is good as well but only on the outside and theres the injury stuff with him, which may be worse then Dunbar.

I think that we "cant miss" with Young. If we get the dolphins 1st rounders then thats 2 more opportunities to miss. We have to draft him unless someone offers us a dream. And by that I mean like 4-6 1st rounders and some second rounders.

The culture is damn good lol..

This is exactly what we need. Im so tired of seeing player that stink it up every week. IE (Josh Norman, MN). We have needed accountability for a long time.

Having been in a life and death situation I can say that most times, it is not immediately clear what type of situation it is. Finding someone unconscious does not mean it is life and death. Im sure that MN's diagnosis skills are probably lacking as well. You cant really expect him to act like a paramedic. I seriously doubt that he is certified in CPR. He probably saw a chick and thought she was passed out so he called her brother. People don't have signs on them that say that there dying or just passed out. I AM IN NO WAY defending MN's character!!!! Its clear to me that with the continuing talk about MN. He should be a much better player then he has been and thats the problem. If he stays, I hope that JDR can get the most out of him as a player because I have a feeling that he will go somewhere else and shine.

Well said. This is what is making a lot of us excited. I just want this team to be respectable again.

Hmm, Ill review every position of what i think we need: Offense: QB: No need (mabye we draft one late for depth) RB: Slight need possible late round WR: No Need here TE: Huge need, Sprinkle is depth only OT: Big need: Even if Trent Comes Back, Moses is hot garbage and Christian cant beat him out. Who knows if Penn will be back. I thought he did a really good job this season. He is still better then Moses at his age hahaha. OG/Interior: Not really a need ( I think Martin can be more then serviceable at RG) Flowers has shown more then enough to be the starter next year and Rollier is fine. I think that Piersebacher will push for a spot next year as well so he should make for solid depth. We could still also resign Scheriff so that would solidfy the group even more. Defense: DL: No need (I just want to say that we still have Cassinova Mckinzy) That guys was making some serious noise early in the year. LB: Slight need (I say this because I dont like the play that we saw this year) Holcomb, SDH, Bostic, JHC, Foster. I would be ok if we move on from Bostic. S: We need a FS bigley. Will they try to move Norman there? CB: We need depth here so I would say its a slight need. Biggest Needs: 1) TE, There is no starter on the roster we absolutely need to bring people in. 2) OT, We need starters and depth 3) FS, Nicholson has all the tools except a brain. I think unless the new defensive staff can make him understand where he needs to be, then he needs to be replaced. Apke could be something going forward. Either way though, I think we need to add another. 4) CB I think we only need depth here. But drafting CBs late I feel like beyond the 4th round is a waste. These are just my opinions man so dont flame.

I feel you man but I thought about this alot this season. While im not a fan of watching that crap over and over again. I do think that what Callahan was trying to do was to force the team to understand that winning 1 on 1s at the LOS was the most important thing they could do. I also think that it was forced on KOC. I think he will run more of a balanced attack because of his understanding of this now. Regardless, the key to Haskins development in this season was the ability we had in the running game and it was the major cog in the wheel that allowed him to grasp what was happening. I still want to see a lot of running next year with Peterson/Guice and Love.

I heard that all but 4 coaches were given their walking papers. I also heard that KOC is staying as OC. The Sp. Teams coach is staying as well as RB coach and 1 unamed coach that we will hear about later.

The real question is will we cut/resign Norman to a team friendly deal and move him to FS??

A suede burgandy jacket should be mandatory for our HC

THey cant get anything right. Every week there is some ridiculous call.

he is 500 in the regular season. I like him but he was not "great"

Thats cute but until this organization gets real leaders IE: people with the best intangibles, we are doomed to continue to lose and deep down we all know know that. We have had talented teams but they all have crumbled under the poor leadership we have had in the last 25 years.

While Alex Smith has clearly never held any type of front office position, I think he is the type of person you want around. He has intangibles through the roof. I think he would work great with Meyer in helping to identify the right type of talent for the team. I also think that he could provide exceptional leadership and professional development for players. This is the type of guy that you move mountains to keep around. If we dont, I know there are teams that would have him in their FO in a heartbeat.
