No kidding lol

He seems someone that’s very upgradable. After his great season , wasn’t he just average last year? With Dougie Marino Luke Nemec We need more of a physical preference. Bahl could be it , but he was bad this year. Siegs isn’t it, and if he’s not a higher end defensive guy anymore 🤷🏻‍♂️ Unless you guys want Smith back!

Homer alert: Do the Raiders count? The had the best D in the league after AP took over and just added Christian Wilkins (The biggest need on D by far).

Im actually opposite on this one because i had Penix as my #2 QB in this class behind Daniels. For me it was Daniels, Penix, Caleb as my top 5 picks QB guys Then 6 to 10 it was Maye and then i had Nix and Mcarthy as round 2 and Spencer round 4. But yeah i think Penix value was all over the place either you had him a top 5 player or 2nd rounder lol. I know Brian Baldinger had him as his #2 QB in this class as well and a top 5 player. I think the only think that would have made Penix drop out of top 5 is the injury issues that scared people. His actual QB play screams top 2 or 3 QB to me when i watch him. I will say i would take the top 4 QB's in this class over the #1 or 2 QB in next years class as i have Maye ahead of all of them but i don't see Sanders or Beck much behind him either. I would take them 2 over JJ and Nix for sure.

Maybe he will play fullback

I agree if they sign a contract. Even the UDFA's who signed real contracts to get through training camp at least are professionals and must carry themselves that way and expect to be on the team and make an impact or they will be cut. In baseball they are professionals in the minor leagues but they need development that could take 1-6 years. The variance in tools/talent is very different in baseball because you have time to develop those tools and talents. Football uses college to do that and then expects immediate returns (maybe 1 or 2 years of development but in general immediate). Either way, its a game of semantics really. Peterson is IMO a prospect because he has to show out just to make it to training camp. He is currently being evaluated deeper to see if he fits the roster where as Arnold and Rakestraw, have their spots on the roster for this year locked in. But that fact doesn't change the timeline for Peterson and he needs to make immediate impacts or go to the CFL, UFL or some other league to try and improve his tools because the NFL doesn't wait around.

Treliving was such a horrible hire for them lol

Bagent went 2-2 last year we still don't know what he is. he should have every opportunity to begin camp as QB1

I think the Jets and Pats take steps forwards, though I’m not sure the Jets count (most people already know they’re a really good defense) and I’m not confident NE jumps up to like, a top 3 defense. The Texans and Raiders also have some real optimism there. My dark horse, bullet-to-my-head answer - the Seahawks. I like the talent they have on that side of the ball, and a lot of the more important positions on that team are/were young and inexperienced (CBs, edge). Now they’ve got MacDonald and his zone blitzes on that side of the ball, I expect them to take a big step forward from a development and coaching perspective.

We're not going to dump Siegs. He's going to rebound in a system that's not absolutely dog****.

Hi, my name is Craig Berube and I'm the next coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs

There is no chance at all Payton is 250. He was probably playing at 235 last year. He reminds me a ton of Arden Key at the moment. Key dominated the SEC as a soph, tried to gain NFL weight and sucked. Key has developed a nice niche for himself at the NFL level, but he's never become the top 5 overall franchise pass rusher he was projected as in 2016. Payton needs to get into the 250's and play the way he did last year, then he'll get the bump he deserves. Right now at his size, 4-3 teams will have no use for him, and 3-4 teams are going to worry about him setting an edge in the run game. In a class full of big, versatile edge players he can rise close to the top, but I need to see it. If he stays in the 230's/low 240's, he'll get drafted as a niche player to a 3-4 team in the 2nd-3rd round.

Way said he talked to them. I'm not of the mind that they approached him about the swap. I don't think we need to look at this as anything more than Tress Way is the embodiment of what it means to be a Washington Redskin. The colors mean something. The legacy means something. Changing his number is significant for many reasons and he still did it. He is forever team captain in my mind.

But there is a right answer. As far as running the ball on 3rd down with 1 minute to go and 3 timeouts left, you can't do it. Is it the reason we lost? no. Did it kill our chances of having the chance to win? Yes. I don't mind being aggressive and going for it on fourth down or faking a kick in an area of the field that isn't always smart, but when it comes to time management and having the opportunity to win a gam in the final couple of minutes, you can't do that. Having urgency and pace when you need multiple scores is not overrated. For example, against the Seahawks in week two, we are down multiple scores and we have a 10 play, 5 minute drive with 4 running plays with under 8 minutes to go. We get the ball back with 1:44 to go and on our second play we get an 11 yard run to the Seahawks 27 and then don't get our next play off for 33 seconds. We got two more plays in and kicked a game tying field goal and then lost in overtime. A little more urgency when you get the ball at the 50 with 1:44 to go down by 3 and we win in regulation. Against the Packers we were down 29 to 14 when we got the ball in the 4th quarter and had a 10 play, 79 yard drive that ended in a turnover on downs that took over 5 minutes. The next drive we get the ball and go 91 yards in 12 plays and took only 2 minutes off the clock. However at this point there is only 41 seconds left in the game and we can't get the ball back. If they showed urgency on the previous drive there is a better chance we could have won or at least tied that game. We can and have often played with pace and moved the ball, it just often is too late. If you want a chance to win games, you have to take advantage of the opportunities earlier. Worry about trying to help the defense after you get the lead because you have no chance to win if you are behind. As for challenges, in 2023, Dan Campbell was 0-4 on challenges. In his career he is 6-9 so before this year he was 6-5 so at least above .500. I am not saying he shouldn't challenge calls, he just has to be smarter about or have a better system with someone telling him to challenge. I agree that a single play not being challenged could effect the game but so can losing that time out. Its a coaching call and often a challenge that is upheld is a momentum swing towards the other team. So be smart about it. I also agree I don't want Dan Campbell to change who he is or how aggressive he coaches the team because the fans and media criticize him. But that doesn't mean he can't improve. All coaches have flaws. All coaches have room for growth. Dan Campbell has been a great coach and when asking for what someone wants to see improvement on isn't saying he is a bad coach, just that there are areas he could adjust to give the team more opportunities in game. His in-game management has always been his weakest attribute and although it has greatly improved from year 1, it still has flaws. So I hope he doesn't change because of what I say, I hope he does because he takes an introspective look at himself and wants to improve areas he struggled with.

https://x.com/brianbatko/status/1788964819900473538?s=46&t=qcRuXjH2St1oLeP8Aph7Og Looks like Fautanu is starting out at RT.

9: Sonny Jurgensen 21: Sean Taylor 28: Darrell Green 33: Sammy Baugh 42: Charley Taylor 43: Larry Brown 44: John Riggins 65: Dave Butz 81: Art Monk As much as I like other Redskin greats, if your name/number isn't on the list it should be up for grabs.

Oh boy I have a ton of hope but absolutely zero confidence in winning this series now. Still, OG is out and Brunson banged up so Pacers should at least steal a game tonight.

Glad Flus named Caleb the starter today. We all knew that. Playing the whole coach speak, “everyone has to earn their spot!” would just look dumb.

Patrick Payton to me is easily the top edge guy at this time in terms of pure potential. Granted I have a few DTs ahead of him because they are better players, and this is a some what weak edge group in terms of high end until some guys really take that next step. And sure Payton has to take another step also but his production as even a true freshman was super impressive and he was even better last year so no reason to not think he will not be better again this season. He has way more athletic ability and upside than Scourton, Gillotte or Tuimoloau. Dude had 10 passes deflected last year which shows his athletic ability and quickness, granted he might be more of a 3/4 OLB but his upside at that spot is pretty high I feel. Sure he needs to get stronger but to me that can happen, but guys cannot just become as athletic as he is as a 6-5 250 edge player. As for not having a refined pass rush game, that again to me can be taught just like strength can be added. Top 10 sack guys in Trey Hendrickson and Maxx Crosby they have both greatly improved as pass rushers in the NFL and Crosby especially was nothing like he is now as a pass rusher when in college, but both especially Crosby had that elite athletic ability and rare skills. Granted not everyone works hard at their craft in football which is insane to me, that is their job and a well paying job, why not improve because then you get paid more, duh.
