Hopefully Hurts would work with DJax, Reagor, Goedert, Ertz and Sanders to name a few. He could do worse I guess. How did we? One freaking pick? One pick and Hurts? Wow loaded. And again Hurts working with those guys is a step DOWN from Wentz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DieselEagle Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I'm going to reserve judgement on the pick of hurts. I think the fact that our last few playoff runs have ended without our starting QB at the very least warrants giving this a chance. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIRE HIM! 😂 But you can't act like this offense is stacked and loaded when there's question marks over the players you mentioned. Let's remind ourselves... Jeffrey injured and wasn't very good last year when healthy. DeSean is 32 and misses time, plus is coming off a season where he played one game. JJAW who sucked. Goedert who still isn't being utilised and we still aren't really a 12 personnel heavy team. Only 2 RBs currently on the roster. Just lost our best LT with question marks over the young rookie.

Not with our roster against Dallas roster. Everyone said this last year as well. And what happened. If you really believe this than maybe we should think about getting rid of wentz. I think, just like last year, we have as good if not better chance to get to the playoffs than any other team in the east. If we stay healthy. And if there is a key injury (say QB) I'm feeling a bit better about things with the current setup than before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With an offense we said should be a top 5 offense in the league and major questions should be asked if they aren't. Well they weren't and coaches lost their jobs but apparently the players can carry on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you've still got those same players who have injury issues. You've lost a good RB, your HoF LT who still played at a good level. This offense is worse than this time last year.

No it hasn't improved majorly. I mean I love the Reagor pick but he's a back up to DeSean for the most part. Who's the X receiver? I have zero expectations for them to be a top 5 offense.

Ok great so if we are in the same situation we might be slightly better off though I'd argue next year we aren't because Hurts is one for development. Oh and FWIW this roster isn't going back to the play offs against that Dallas team so... Great job Howie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reagor will be a big help too. And I don't think DJax will miss the whole season again either. So yeah, big surprise coming for you. And the idiot Cowboys.

The team basically drafted to fix a major problem from last year so far. One was all our WRs going down so they drafted a WR and probably will grab another. the other was our QB went down so they are drafting to avoid that having such a huge impact on us. the more I think about it the more I think it was a shrewd move. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Howie had a better drafting record would anyone be complaining? Not saying I agree with the decision but answer me that Brady was a much older player at the time Garoppolo was drafted. And while Brady has been durable throughout his career, Father Time is undefeated. Belichick prepared a little early as it turned out, but it wasn’t an insane decision. Nothing like what we’re facing today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've also spent a premium pick on a player we all hope never plays. As I’ve said before. This is not a good decision regardless, but could at least be gotten over if the roster is already stacked. We don’t have that luxury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Ok. I had time to sleep on it and cool down. ...and I’m still Fing pissed off by this pick. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nipples Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 I love the Reagor pick, but if what really held them back from trading up to 16 to get Lamb was they didn’t want to give up 53 to do it...and now they Fing waste that pick on a QB? As much as I like Reagor, Lamb + no second round pick is better than Reagor and Jalen Fing Hurts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
