KingTitan Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 51 minutes ago, TitanLegend said: The year we drafted CJ we were coming off a season where VY regressed in pretty much every single area as a QB, and while LenDale wasn't awful, he showed as the guy having to carry the load that he couldn't cut it, not by himself. His style just wasn't one that could carry an offense, and Fisher properly identified we needed someone who could(or at least help LenDale/the run game as a whole) on offense. It also perfectly fit Fisher's offense. Fisher was always about smash mouth, run first football. We also have learned he had no faith in VY, so drafting a receiver for VY(like most wanted) didn't make sense internally/ What is continually being ignored here is the offense we run. We don't put 4 WRs on the field at the same time(pretty much no team does). We put 3 WRs on the field the 3rd least amount of times of all teams last year at 30% of the time. 53% of the time we either had 2 or 3 TEs on the field. Unless a drastic change is being made to the offense, we don't even put our trio of Brown/Davis/Humphries out there very much. What are we gonna do with a 4th WR? David Stewart was released before FA(or around when it started?) started the season we drafted Lewan as he had largely been a shell of his former self due to injuries. He retired afterwards/never played another down/didn't sign with anyone else. Michael Oher was who they signed to play across from Roos, and the conversation around Roos at that time, even though he was still a decent player, was to start looking towards the future/to replace him. Don't see the comparison at all here. Well not trying to convince you. If my details are bad, thats on me. But either way Lewan wasn't the need. I wanted Aaron Donald. But people thought he was "too similar" to Casey or why draft Donald when you have Casey. I think given the depth in the draft at need positions (whether good or bad) we should go best player at #29 if we stay there. If that is a wr, rb, edge, ot, CB. Whatever. We should roll with it. Personally would hate to draft a career 5 sack OLB just because and pass up on a talented player who can fill a role and maybe take over a role next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SARGO127 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 If we can deal Davis for say a 2nd...does that clear up cap to sign Clowney AND Logan Ryan? 1st - WR Jalen Reagor 2nd - DL Marlon Davidson 2nd - RB Clyde Edwards -Helaire 3rd - OT or CB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TitanRedd Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 I’m over Logan Ryan if he cost anything more than 7-8 mill, guys like adoree & Jayon are due for a raise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played well last year and should have been signed by now. he's not a washed up vet like most of the remaining FA. i would hope he signs before the draft cause if he doesnt, he may not have many chances out there afterwards. teams are gonna draft cb's to play and play early. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

615finest Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 🤔🤔 Only WRs with speed that come to mind are Reagor, Mims, Aiyuk, and Maybe Jefferson. Ruggs isn’t making it too far in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruggs isn’t making it too far in the draft. a lot of the skill guys on offense we've picked lately are dudes who are fast, but also big and strong. think AJ, jonnu smith, really even corey davis. we haven't really looked at a whole lot of finesse guys (like a hollywood brown etc). i think the guy who fits that profile the most is denzel mims- 4.38 speed but he's an absolute bully and an enthusiastic blocker as well. but philly seems to really like him, and i think he could very well go before 29. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SerenityNow Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Yeah Mims has JRob guy written all over him if we go WR early. My favorite of the potential late 1st round WR targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it could be a 2nd or 3rd round selection. That's earlier than I would have expected given Davis, Brown, Hump. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
