BackinBlack Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 that was the first draft i ever 'watched' as a kid. I wanted Fitzgerald so bad, I think i even made an account on here just saying how WR is more important than OL lol (again I was a kid). Took Gallery, was pissed and stopped watching the draft. Some things never change, if only back then id have known that would be one of our most successful picks in the next 20 years lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cleveland wanted gallery and they were at 6. At that point in time, that in and of itself should’ve been a red flag of sorts, their first five years of drafting was pretty snakebit. Lol! Lol it really should have been. Those early Cleveland drafts sure were something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devilshark69 Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Some things can’t be cussed completely, gallery WAS the safe pick. One I remember really laughing at? Matt stinchcomb.....drafting a Lt prospect with a bad left shoulder? Drafting a DE with a Liz franc foot? KJ was coming off injury, Conley? Injury....etc. those are avoidable boneheaded picks. And yes, getting cute sucks too, reggies second rnd picks come to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbsk Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 8 hours ago, SimonGruber said: I’m no D-line guru but all the clips I’ve seen on Young have been laughable. Dude gets stonewalled like no other. He looks slow footed to me and the power he won with in college is not translating to the NFL just yet. I don’t see him getting bullied in the run game but he’s not blowing up interior OLine either really. He’s not terrible I don’t think but he’s not really making any impact. I think Silvera looked the better player right now with his leverage and more quickness off the snap. I hope we’ll see more of both with the change in HC and have more of an idea of what they offer moving forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
