    Best draft in years

    Howell isn't that far off because young QB early in their career rarely start off with a 1:1 TD/INT ratio. Usually QB's that young tend to have more INTs than TDs. Like I said Howell needs to speed up his processing to avoid sacks and avoid INTs. I don't think people realize how elusive Howell...

    Do we have a playoff roster?

    If the Hawks improve enough in the trenches they have a shot to compete with other NFC playoff contenders. Media heads this time of the year write off the Rams, Saints and Bucs but those teams emphasized building the trenches year to year and why they can compete despite "salary cap hell"...

    Any updates on Bryan Mone?

    Indeed Hankins will be used in short yardage and goal line situations.

    Jamal Adams whispers

    I guess you can use Adams in big nickel packages to disrupt around the LOS but Spoon has that covered. Witherspoon is going to be playing boundary CB if needed, nickel or even as a deep safety over the top. Or even split with Love in a cover 2 shell. You have Taylor as a situational pass rusher...

    What is the state of our linebacker corps?

    Baker and Dodson are the starters and I haven't seen anything to change that. If Adams signs and is moved to LB maybe he cracks the line up as a starter but that is a big if.

    Jamal Adams whispers

    Okay so if they plan on bringing him back on the weakside that means he has to beat out Jerome Baker who I have projected as the weakside starting ILB. Adams is a better blitzer than Baker whether he is going up the A gap or come screaming off the D gap. But Baker has a better feel in zone...

    Could we NOT draft CB/S every effing draft???

    To control cap costs teams are going to draft CBs more frequently. We will see how the CB competition shakes out but we might see some surprise cuts or trades with one of the CBs when the pre season competition is settled.

    Breda Report: The Vilification of Russell Wilson

    The Steelers draft went heavy with OL and added a very talented Roman Wilson who was great value where he was drafted. On defense Payton Wilson, Ryan Watts, and Logan Lee were also great values in later rounds for their defense. Wilson is walking into a situation where Arthur Smith can use...

    1st round QBs 2024

    Possible but the earliest that they can unload Cousins due to his contracts is 2 years. Similar situation the Broncos faced with RW contract.

    Post draft press conference

    They have a high opinion of Howell so I think that is abundantly clear. Howell according to what I could find is that he played in 37 collegiate games. A lot of analytics tends to lean on QB's that played at least 30+ college games tend to have higher chance of success in the pros. Same...

    Building a new defense

    I was thinking of Bryant Young as to which player Murphy reminds me of the most. But the John Randle comparisons are just as good! :love:(y)

    Can Christian Haynes excel at LG?

    You know that Laumea has to be in the mix to start at guard too because his talent is undeniable. Let the competition begin!

    Building a new defense

    Apologies Murphy!

    Building a new defense

    Mac probably understands that to fix the run defense Murphy is too good to pass up. But I think we are really doing Murphy a disservice by talking about him strictly as a run stuffer. For a man his size he is very agile, and doesn't waste his steps toward the QB. The reason why he is often...

    Which new HC will have the most success year 1?

    The Falcons have talent on offense in spades, but that defense has most of the talent on the back end. That is why the Falcons made it an effort to upgrade the pass rushing of their front seven unit through 2024 draft and add help for Jarrett and Onyemata. Morris is good at disguising zone...
