DaBoys Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 (edited) I wonder if some people really only want draft capital or they are actually just praying for the team to be nothing without Dak. This isn’t even a good draft. Half the top 30 guys didn’t even play this year. You don’t start wanting to tank until you are eliminated from the playoffs.

I want the draft capital, so we can use it to build a defense that won’t blow leads after our QB1 puts up 30-40+ points and lose the game.

Pick 8-15 isn’t as enticing as a playoff run to me. The Vikings were one of the hottest teams in the league coming in to Sunday riding a 3 game win streak. Dalvin Cook and Thielen were supposed to kill us, and they did, but we won anyway. The Steelers are 10-0, and even though I thought Gilbert played well, after seeIng the offense yesterday, I feel like maybe Dalton could have won it.

So if we don’t want Lawrence/ Fields, and we want a guy that played last year who are we taking at 3? Hypothetically Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, a playoff run consists of one game in which I suspect we lose. So I’m still a firm member of team tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can’t make up new rules as we go along. Let’s face it... other than Matts, Buddy is the most hated poster in the forum. But, We have to give him a chance to ride this out. Who knows what will happen? Tanking was my highest priority. But if Dalton goes on a win streak and proves we can win with a $3M QB, I’m okay with that too. The point is that we can’t try to change karma at this point. We gotta let it ride with buddy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
