Right...well have to see how they manage that.....this year it is unprecedented....next year?....the year after that?.....probably not.....theres always going to be a new highest paid QB right around the corner.....
Definitely....but there have been a LOT of people making those picks.....I honestly think its more just the average throughout the league....Ive already justified in my mind that we "might" have hit on one of the next 3....so, at least to me, its picks well spent....
I keep seeing people complaining about us using 3 first rounds picks to get a franchise QB.....Dont know where youve been for the last 40 years, but I promise you they wont be missed that much.....(thats how long its been since we last drafted a decent QB, btw)......weve picked exactly 5 good players, in the first round, over the last 23 years...only 5....so, the history and numbers tell me we wouldnt get anything better(or even close) with those 3 picks......
Id say he is a lot more attractive to other teams now, with that $7 mill contract...... I think he still gets traded, but now has the say in where he lands....(probably not Cleveland).....
Tour....Sorry to hear this. Hits close to home, as I just returned today, from visiting my brother Bruce(ironic, eh?) who's a year into the good fight right now.....make the best of what you got and fight like hell(and dont waste too much time on here)....Would love to see you enjoy this season.....Lord knows you've earned it..
You will be in my thoughts.....dont let me down....Sunday #1 coming up!
Truly sad news.....rip Gipper!
I loved his trivia(and so did he)....I imagined how many hours he put into preparing & researching those threads....as well as his noted battles with everyone. Honestly figured he was too stubborn to do something like this...... the board will never be quite the same.......
Honestly, always thought those orange pants were terrible.....I swear everyone hated them when we wore them before, but now they all seem to love em .....
It's a great 1st day....but there is a LOT of work to do and a draft that still needs to happen.....
Today we added depth to QB....upgraded one position we were"ok" at ......and filled one true hole at RG.....
But we have gaping holes at safety and LB.....So, I will reserve judgement until I see how he fills the most recent holes he created with cuts, as well as seeing how we do in the upcoming draft.......LOTS of picks and deals yet to be completed....
Im optimistic he will be aggressive(as he said he would).....So day 1 gets an A.....
