  1. I think Moss could be another Hentges. Not a super big fast guy, but good enough to get open and catch some passes. Look at the bright side. If we go 2 TE now, at least we'd have 2 decent blockers, as opposed to sprinkle and Davis. Could definitely use an upgrade, but those guys should be serviceable at least.
  2. Not only that, but you couple those guys with the D line.. Chase, Kerrigan, Allen, Ion, Payne, Settle, Sweat, and things are looking up. I'm not expecting world beaters next year but I'm fully on board with what they're angling toward, Explosive, athletic playmakers on both sides of the ball who are all youngsters, instead of the tired boring plain jane FA's who are never gonna make plays outside their little bubble of expertise.. I'm really excited for all the young guys and what they can do. Can't really fault this draft. Thought the WR in the 3rd was a little early, but we've got a TON of weapons at WR, RB, and DL. All of that coupled with the rumored return of a zbs for the offense? I think we're gonna enjoy the next few years watching these kids grow up. I've still got faith in my man Steven Sims.. the guy is a playmaker and I really think he's on his way to being a mini AB (minus the craziness)
  3. I'm extra high on Young because of what we have on the DL already. Adding him to a rotation of Sweat, Ion, Payne, Allen, Kerrigan, Settle & Anderson should be a devastating group when taken as a whole. If we had a DL of say, Ziggy Hood, Jason Hatcher, Chris Baker and Kedrick Goldston, I'd be in the trade down camp.. because young isn't going to turn subpar talent guys into all pros. But he CAN help turn super talented guys like Sweat, Ion, Allen and Payne into pro bowlers, because they've got a ton of talent already.
  4. I think he meant Sims can be a WR2 as in a #2 guy, not necessarily an outside guy. McLaurin is your definite #1 receiver, but Sims can be a mini AB with his speed if he improves his hands. He's definitely a weapon though, I think with a full season he could easily be a 50-70 catch guy with 8 or so TD's a season. As for Harmon, I think he's a great safety blanket. Once he learns to use that size to box guys out more and gets a little more handsy at the top of his routes, he's gonna be a really good piece going forward. He's never gonna win with speed, but he can win with strength and crafty use of his hands like Dez used to. The guy wasn't the fastest, but was a monster because he was so big and strong. Hopefully Harmon can develop into that kind of receiver.
  5. Jordan Reed was a baller for this team, it's too bad his body betrayed him. That 2015 playoff game he was the only guy that showed up and tried to will his way to a win. Everyone else shrunk on that stage, Reed shined. He will be missed, one of my favorite redskins. I just wish he could have stayed healthy, for his own sake and for ours.
  6. That's the kind of guy you're signing up for with Chase. Just like Donald was head and shoulders above everyone else, Young is as well. I'd be ecstatic with 10 years of Aaron Donald type dominance on the D line.
  7. Here's the thing about CY though. Looking back a few years, Aaron Donald was by far the most polished guy I'd ever seen at the DT position. His speed, and hand usage/body balance just blew me away watching his Pitt highlights. I told all my friends that dude was way too good to be a 2nd rounder, that he was a top 10 guy. Lo and behold all the mock draft "experts" who had him pegged as a 2nd rounder due to his height/weight were just plain dumb. The point of all that? I see many of the same traits in CY as I did watching Donald a few years ago. Donald was excellent coming out of college, probably one of the most proficient to come out in 20ish years. What did he do in the NFL? He improved tremendously on what was already a really good base skillset coming out of college, and is damn near unblockable as a pro. THAT is the kind of dominance you're likely to see with CY. He's that good and that fast. I know they're different positions, but Donald is the guy CY compares best to, as far as dominance. Donald absolutely DOMINATED his college competition just like CY did, and in the NFL he continued that. I see the same for CY.. he's that much better than his contemporaries. If you could go back in time knowing what you know now about Donald, would you draft him #1 or 2?? Of course you would. Young is the same type of dude, different positions, but essentially the same guy dominance wise.
  8. Josh Norman signed a 1 year deal with the Bills. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000001105556/article/buffalo-bills-cb-josh-norman-agree-to-oneyear-deal
  9. Bump for this thread. Any word/rumors on uniform updates for the season? I figure this would be a good time now that dan has "turned a new leaf" so to speak. I wish they would go with a matte burgundy metallic, kinda like the vikings helmets but with our logo, I think it would look nice. Also maybe bolder colors on the uni, instead of the muted reddish burgundy they have now.
  10. Chicago doesn't have the ammo to move up, they're a non factor as far as I'm concerned. Nobody is going to want to take that contract on if Mack is part of the deal, and they've got no first rounder and a middling pair of 2nds. Not enough to get anything done imo.
  11. Nobody is going to give up qb draft capital to trade up for a DE. Hell the only ones who gave up a ton for a qb was us.. and we haven't seen that kind of trade before or since. IF anyone gave up the farm to move up, it's for a qb.. not a DE. *unless you're Mike Ditka and you trade your whole draft for a RB.
  12. I dunno, there was the talk of being homesick, the mystery injury that suddenly popped up and nobody could accurately diagnose, etc. He did not fit well in the NFL, that much is for sure. I can't lay the blame on Kirk for his lack of production though, because everyone else flourished. Even Alex never looked his way either. So something about him the qb's did not trust/like. but it is the Terry Mac thread, so I will bow out. I just think Doc was too soft for the NFL. Both mentally and physically.
  13. I thought Doctson was a sure fire stud. The guy had a huge catch radius and wingspan, and the production to back up his lofty draft status. However the one thing (or two in this case) that we can't measure are heart and hardness. The guy was marshmallow soft, like a canadian bag of milk. Add to that the fact that he didn't have the heart/drive to be the best.. he seemed content to simply exist (at least from my perspective looking in) Good Riddance. Mclaurin is a far better player and obviously has much more drive than doctson ever had.
  14. They're delusional. They also think Nolan is the second coming and will bring an "attacking defense" to their ****ty cowland. How's that for rich. Mike Nolan, Mr. vanilla, Mr. Bend but don't break with a ton of seasons of horrible defenses will be attacking. Whatever helps them sleep at night.
  15. I put the blame solely on gruden for the running game failures. First he averaged under 40% run/pass ratio iirc, which is pathetic, then he took a perfectly good 1500 yard per year zbs and ****canned it for his stupid "power" running scheme which was equally good for a 2 yard loss as it was a 2 yard gain.
