And to go on your point about getting to the QB helping the secondary then how bad was our secondary then if we had just 4 LESS sacks than the '91 team and yet we gave up 28 almost 30 points a game???? Does that not support that we need more help than just in an area we're already good at??? How bout scheme and coaching and overall team play instead of relying on a couple of players..

Every once in a while a positional need and an elite once in a decade talent combine, but sometimes they don't. And when they don't, you take the elite prospect. That's what the 49ers did. DE wasn't a need for them...they'd invested a ton in their DL already. But they took Bosa because he was an elite difference maker. I don't think they're sorry about it. Take the potential perennial All-Pro and then continue to build. Nobody is expecting this team to be finished building in one draft. You know what, I'm probably just gonna contradict myself while countering this take, but if you look at NE, they've gotten by just fine not being able to draft top prospects.. It goes back to coaching and scheme. At the same time that counters my point about trading back for picks when they can find legit talent in FA with solid cheap signings and finding guys later in the draft. In terms of nobody expecting this team to be finished building in one draft, then when are we gonna be done? The Dline beef we drafted needs to get paid soon and some decisions are gonna have to be made.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I am saying here is that on paper our D upfront was supposed to be very good, excellent, but did not perform to expectations from what I saw. Stats can be misleading particularly when it comes to sacks. And I watched every pathetic game. It was not consistent. We need some real Pro Bowl caliber guys IMO. Yeah look at the 1991 team, a lot of studs on both sides of the ball. I look at our O and I think we have a stud in Terry McLaurin. I look at Chase Young and I see another. I think that coaching is a MAJOR factor in teams success. Scheme. Preparedness. Accountability and Execution. Our D coaches have been rather mediocre IMO since well Gregg Williams.

Cause that's what I'd do since we have nothing else for defenses to worry about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just once I'd like to hear someone say you know what such n such QB reminds me of a better version of Steve Bono, you know who said RB reminds me of Bam Morris or Ron Dayne in their prime, or hell Napolean Kaufman or Robert Smith or a Joe Washington... Or you know who Chase reminds me of. Ken Harvey.. Drives me nuts when rookies are compared to players the league never saw before the great they are compared to played and haven't seen since they left the game..Lawrence Taylor changed the game when came into the league. New positions on offense were created just to deal with him, blocking schemes and passing offenses had to change to deal with him. He created a new position. Only a handful of players have ever done that and yet every year some random kid is irresponsibly thrown into the same hemisphere as those handful of greats who literally change the game..

sportjunkie07 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 1 hour ago, XxSpearheadxX said: This is a ridiculous statement. If you have a DE who can singlehandedly win a game or two a year, if your young QB busts you draft another one. I'm not sure what you were trying to say. Its not ridiculous. You just dont understand or agree with me. I'm saying that ultimately we don't get to the promised land with a great defensive end if we have a bust at qb... so as much as I like chase young, I don't see the 2 pick as untradeable, especially if you can find high value players that can help bring out the unrealized potential of a young qb on your team. 39 minutes ago, jsharrin55 said: Made it 100 pages before its official.

I was thinking more along the lines of if Miami or someone offers them the farm for #2 and we trade down. Look, I've been around long enough for a lot of the older memes on this board. Cult of Colt. Mix is Tall. Marko Mitchell is an underrated sleeper. Say what you will, at least those guys were on the roster. This thread is at 100 pages and Chase Young isn't actually wearing our uniform yet. I'm amused, especially because I'm on record as wanting to accumulate anything and everything for next draft so we can throw the farm at the #1 pick and get Sunshine out of Clemson.

The Dline beef we drafted needs to get paid soon and some decisions are gonna have to be made.. In NE it also might have something to do with having the greatest QB in NFL history for almost 20 years. They hardly ever had to spend much in FA or in draft capital on offense...Brady basically made most JAGs look like stars. We've seen tons of offensive players come from NE and flop elsewhere. NE is a complete one-off. They won't be able to keep it up now. As far as their defense, they have had very good schemes, yes. And they've always been flexible about playing to the strengths of the guys they have on defense. But again, you can't take NE as the rule. They're the exception. As far as when are we going to be done...we've been building recently, but with an incompetent GM and a meh HC. We now have a brand new HC and staff, and have finally gotten rid of the cancers in the FO as well. The new coaching staff needs to see what they have and who their core players are. We have tons of very young guys, including a bunch of rookies who ended up starting last year. I'd give it through the end of this season and the 2021 draft before upping expectations a bunch. We need to see how our rookies progressed, and what we'll have with the new schemes and coaching staff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I am saying is in games I saw last year they seemed to get sacks in bundles against certain teams in certain games. There was no consistency. I think Chase anchors in consistency. I think this a real solid draft for receivers, even into the 4th round so I think we are going to pick up a decent one. I like Sims a lot too but based more on potential and the little I have seen of him. And you know the O can take a real major step this year again with decent coaching and I am super hopeful that Haskins will progress.

Skinsinparadise Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 (edited) I was just listening to Chris Russell who interviewed Scot McCloughan separately. Scot told him that he was a scout with GB when they signed Reggie White and to Scot's eye's Young is that type of generational player in that same mold. He's blown away by him.
