Day 3

Reggie Ragland made that one tackle that bricked a dude last year. Bring reggie home

I remember when the nerds drafted Phillips and sold you all a bunch of oceanfront Nebraska property with “he doesn’t miss tackles”. Good times.

Why do teams like Baltimore that have a better defense than us keep drafting linebackers and investing in them high then? A number of good teams are doing it. And a lot of the teams that aren’t doing it right now actually have good linebackers and aren’t doing it because of that. I just don’t buy that it’s the equivalent to running back. I don’t think we need to be the 85 Bears out there, but I think we at least need to be pretty good and have some athleticism in that group.

We didn’t have a first or second round pick to address the need with an actual high pick.  If that’s your frustration now the only issue was your expectations for the weekend.

Never miss a tackle if you run to the otherwise of the field. Phillips school of linebacking.

There's never been an overdrafted guy to underperform in the NFL before Phillips. I heard he's the reason we all grow old and die too.

The really unfortunate part is he’s already just turned 24 and has no chance of improving.

Yet somehow this argument doesn’t work for Schwartz at WR. Almost like sometimes you’ve seen enough no matter how old or young.

I understand the capital limitations and that was part of my frustration. But, with some of the weaknesses that we had, let’s take a look at this:

Amari

DPJ

Elijah Moore (2nd round pick with 3rd in return)

Tillman (3rd)

 

So we invest a second and third round pick in the receiver position, when we actually have a decent 1-2. Just pointing out that we aren’t going to play 4 receivers at a time often, to go along with Njoku. 

 I do understand that a couple of our pics are futuristic. That’s not lost on me. But I also think with the major decision we made, the future is now. It’s not next year, it’s not 2025. There needs to be more of a sense of urgency with what we started with the leshaun trade. The defense just isn’t good enough. The linebackers aren’t good enough. Starting linebacker is a bigger void than backup QB, backup OT, and a 4th receiver. Whatever, I hope I am wrong and my draft day ranting looks silly. I have a hunch, though that Lamar Jackson is going to continue to lick his chops and look forward to running free against our linebackers.

Of course it does lol.  
 

Dude is 23 and runs a 4.2 or whatever.  Like, it’s not inconceivable he becomes capable of contributing even if he was overdrafted.

I demand Berrys swift and immediate firing before he ruins what’s left of this draft. He’s worse than ray farmer.

He’s sooo bad

[MWil23]

Berry is at least smart enough to understand he sucks at drafting and so he trades picks for players already drafted.

if scrabble Hates it I'm for it. 

 

Who are our back up safeties?
