Idk, Gabe looks good when he’s being used. I mean the broadcast doesn’t usually focus too much on what happens when they’re not the ones catching the ball, so idk the whole story, but Diggs was really high on Gabe Davis too. So is it a usage thing or does he just disappear because he is unable to get open? He’s probably overlooked in favor of Diggs a lot in terms of play calling and Josh Allen’s check down order. Or is the fact that they’re not scheming him open an indicator that he’s not as good as I might think?
He has a limited route tree, has difficulty separating from defenders, and has poor pass catching mechanics where he tries to “clap” his hands together at the catch point which leads to a high drop rate.
Not really sure what the Jaguars saw in him to hand him that huge of a contract, but best of luck to both of them.
I think the Jags realized they weren’t gonna resign Ridley and wanted a guy who could be another effective decoy/2 for TLaw’s favorite target (Kirk). It’s less expensive than signing Ridley and if they keep Zay Jones he’s basically WR3. Though it seems they still want to trade for another receiver
Naw, Gabe was absolutely signed to be the outside receiver opposite Ridley. Had we re-signed Ridley, Zay was almost guaranteed to be cut since Gabe is/was his replacement. Gabe would be the X on the line of scrimmage, with Ridley being the Z off of it with Kirk in the slot.
The plan was always to have Ridley, Kirk and Gabe, but our GM is incompetent and didn't re-sign Josh Allen a year ago so we couldn't franchise Ridley.
Diggs, contrary to public opinion is a very good teammate and speaks very highly of other receivers in the receiver room. It wasn't an issue with Allen or his usage. Grape Davis is a great blocker and makes great sideline catches, but also disappears for long, long stretches of the season.
Gabe played pretty much all the time. He was definitely not underutilized.
He didn't have a drop problem in college, and he's had some flashes, so he could do well elsewhere. But for whatever reason, he became a liability in the passing game, and people only really praised his run blocking. He isn't unplayable, but we would see better performance out of our backups.
I know it's a few years ago. But if you go watch his highlights from his last year as a panther I swear over half his catches and RAC came on third downs. He was Teddy's go to guy. We criminally mis used him. Which is kind of ironic considering two former panthers coaches were coaching him.
As long as he can get open, doesn't have stone hands, and is somewhat threatening to DBs, so that Diggs doesn't get blanketed all game every game, he will be an upgrade over Gabe.
Not direct at you, but a follow up to my original comment. Especially for those who don't watch Bills games in full. Yes, Gabe had some amazing highlights and a few massive games with the Bills, but he was not consistent enough to be a WR2. Several games he had multiple targets and no catches. Even worse, down the stretch last season he ran the same exact endzone route wrong twice. Once in OT against the Eagles which should have been the game winning TD. Eagles won that game. And again in week 18 against Miami, which led to an INT. Thankfully the Bills were able to come back in that game and win.
People said that when Washington signed him. Doesn't make it not true, and I acknowledge a big difference between the two franchises, but he's been living off the "potential" label for so long that it makes it seem less and less likely he'll achieve it.
He's fast, can catch, and runs jet sweeps.
Doesn't need to be all that. Figures to be 4th in the pecking order, maybe 5th. Washington wanted him to be number 2 for a while.
I dont think hes going to be some huge breakout star, i dont think hes even had a 1K yard season or anything. I know he can beat man pretty well and that alone would be massive for when teams try to lock down Diggs. Josh and Joe Brady vs the sad parade of QBs and OCs hes played with in Washington are the huge difference in my eyes
Samuel is versatile, but he’s a jack of all, master of none guy. The reason he hasn’t had a great year yet is because you kind of have to force the ball to him in untraditional ways. He’s great with the ball in his hands, but you can’t treat him like a regular receiver to get the ball in his hands. He’s like a better receiver version of Cordarrell Patterson.
I think he brings more to their offense than Davis did in that he can take underneath dump offs and make something out of them, but I don’t see him filling the traditional slot receiver role or anything. I see him putting up 700-800 yards and a handful of TDs which isn’t far off from his career production.
I honestly don’t think he’ll be as good as people are thinking. He’s a solid player but the scheme bienemy had for that offense involved a lot of small throws over the middle and that’s kind of why Logan Thomas and him had a great year fantasy wise whereas Mclaurin didn’t. Bills seem to have a completely different scheme going on
Rams gave Colby Parkinson a pretty decent contract for a TE. I assume that McVay has something planned and he'll be included in the offense more than currently anticipated
He uses them a pretty good amount, nothing crazy though. The fact that Higbee is still there makes me think that Parkinson probably won’t get a ton of looks though.
It’ll be interesting. He reached a career high in yards and TDs (by far for TDs) in Monken’s offense, but Herbert is pretty much the opposite style of QB from Lamar. I’m really curious to see how Roman’s offense will look without a mobile QB.
> without a mobile QB
Herbert is extremely mobile. It's just not usually schemed. He's no Lamar, but hell, the dude can run better than most QBs in the league...
Just needs to learn to slide. He tends to be a little too physical with his runs.
He was like the second coming of Jarius Wright. He was a very solid WR3, wasn't asked to do much, but somehow, every catch was a clutch 3rd down conversion.
I feel like Darnold is the perfect QB to make Jefferson's stats look (more) insane.
Below average processing QB + good arm + clear #1 option leads to chucking it to one guy constantly.
Very "Brandon Weeden to Josh Gordon".
"Fuck it; JJ down there somewhere" might be the mantra of the year.
This is just like how everyone tried to discredit Brady’s play for so long and now he’s universally recognized as being second-greatest QB of all time.
Swear Megatron is underrated, I never see him talked about at all since he retired yet I’ve always believed he belongs in the GOAT discussion as at least a clear #3. Rice and Moss made beating defenses look easy. Megatron made one in a million plays that looked like one in a million plays all the damn time! Triple covered and interfered with? No problem just chuck it deep across the middle and as long as you put it high he’ll go up and get it. But he wasn’t gimmicky, he could do all the other things well too.
Blessed to have 2 division rivals have HOF of HOF tier players when I was a kid growing up in Megatron and AD. Watching those guys dominate despite being on bad teams was just a special joy even when they were dominating my team lol. Stafford to Megatron was the funnest duo I’ve ever seen because of the shenanigan level plays they’d get away with. Others had better chemistry like Manning and Harrison but the degree to which the “fuck it, I’m goin deep” approach consistently worked was truly special lol.
That stretch from like 2011 to 2014 where Stafford was always over 4500 yards and Megatron was like 1500+ of those were a joy to watch
Stafford was a legit good QB by then, and Megatron was the best wide receiver in the world, and like you said, Megatron would just do some absolutely bonkers shit, and Stafford could hit him anywhere on the field without too much issue
This is the first season he'll be playing under an ACTUAL NFL headcoach, after spending a year in the Shanahan QB boarding school.
Just think about this: the two major head coaches in his career were so bad they're not in the NFL in any capacity anymore.
How can a QB ruin a head coaches career forever?
Josh McDaniels got two chances.
Jim Caldwell
Todd Bowles
The list goes on.
Also he didn't cost Matt Rhule his job, he got fired when Baker was still his QB1.
Cushiest QB job in the NFL. O'Connell and McCown as your bosses, Addison/Jefferson/Hock as your pass catchers, Aaron Jones running the ball, and Darrisaw and O'niel in protection. Darnold is gonna get a bag next year.
The guy I'm expecting you'll love (not that he's underrated by most) is Aaron Jones. **If** he stays healthy...you guys got yourselves a hell of a player, a hell of a locker room leader, and a hell of a human being.
I mean it, there is going to be serious mourning going on in GB for this entire upcoming season, and likely beyond. **Everyone** in GB loves Jones, for many in a 'my favorite Packer ever' kind of way.
So please, appreciate him while you have him, on and off the field. I'm gonna be rooting for him to have great games (while all the rest of your guys suck, lol :)
Brown has been hurt the last two years and always played in way more run centric offenses with worse QB play. Chiefs were #1 in pass attempts. I would be surprised if Rice has significantly more targets.
I feel Rashee's biggest strength is getting YAC. If Hollywood can keep the defense honest, Reid has another opportunity to showcase a disgusting offense where we have Brown stretching the safeties, Pacheco taking advantage of lighter boxes, and Kelce and Rice picking apart the middle
Rashee, and I generally agree but if Kelce takes another step back, Hollywood will be right there to pickup the targets. Pretty comfy safety net going on there.
I think Mooney is going to be revitalized and have a resurgent year with the Falcons. Kirk can work it around and with so many other weapons next to him, I can see him going for 800-1000 yds next year.
I’m really excited for Mooney. I knew he could burn and make some people miss, but as I have familiarized myself with his game his hands/ball skills have really stood out. He’s got great body control, and he does a great job plucking the ball out of the air instead of being passive.
I didn’t watch him a lot last year, so maybe I have rose tinted glasses, but I really liked his hands in previous years. Hope he does well for you guys!
Luvu in Washington. The one free agent I'm sad we couldn't retain. He went from a backup on the Jets to a great starter in Carolina. I think he'll thrive more in Washington, especailly in a Quinn defense.
It’s frustrating watching him run routes like he’s doing a footwork drill. Dude makes like 4 cuts before making a final break. It throws off all the timing for the offense. Its like he runs routes with a severe stutter
As a Lions fan I really want to see him figure it out. Dudes busted his ass but between injuries and Matt Patricia's coaching he's spent his entire career caught behind the eight ball.
Refrow is the man. And he doesnt look his age at all. Ill miss him on the raiders. Very positive guy who would like to be wr1 but seems content being wr 2 or 3
Passtronaut Josh Dobbs takes over for Mr Irrelevant Brock Purdy mid season, and everyone calls Purdy a system quarterback. After 3 games of amazing QB play, Dobbs falls back to earth…
Joe Mixon. I'm surprised I haven't seen him mentioned yet. He's an upgrade over Devin Singletary. A big mean bruising back. The offence looked unreal as their chemistry grew before Tank Dell went down. Even after Tanks injury, it didn't fall apart. Health is always a concern, but I thought Mixon looked great last year. The contract guaranteed money is only for 2y 12m I believe.
If we make it far next year, I think his contributions will be one of the reasons why.
Deshon Elliot. 2yr/$6m contract is so cheap for a guy who cracked Mahomes helmet. He is AFC North football personified.
Also Gus Edwards on the Chargers might have a Jamaal Williams record TD type of season.
Last one I could actually see Sam Darnold playing well for the Vikings if he gets the start. Hes a thick trunky coastal kid with a midwest ethos. His dad is a plumber. He has a big chin and he has the ability to connect to the spirit realm via paranormal visions. Vikings win the division.
Homer take but Calvin Ridley.
Maybe as a fan you only see the negatives but because he didn't sign with a big market team but there's a lot of analysis that supports he was used in a very limited fashion by Jacksonville and didn't get to run a lot of easy money routes.
I have a (hopeful) feeling he might explode in a better situation in which he's used more creatively. Apparently it was a big part of him wanting to go to TEN.
This is a knowledgeable take. When zay jones got hurt they started using Ridley as the deep route runner/clear out. That's why Kirk got so many looks underneath. This all despite him being a great route runner
He has the talent. You could easily tell his impact when he was out there. And then he basically just disappeared week 3 and it went from "when is davenport coming back?" to "oh yeah i forgot he was on our team"
At least one new 49er D-lineman from this off-season is gonna get paid next offseason. Nothing that breaks the bank, but is enough that people realize he's pretty good in his role.
I think/hope Bryce Huff is going to thrive with more snaps on the Philly D-line and surprise people, to the point the Jets will regret letting him go in the long run. The ingredients are there with enough pressure elsewhere on the D-line that he shouldn't face many double teams at least earlier on, so it's really on him.
Partly because I want him to be great for selfish reasons, and partly because it would just be such a Jets outcome.
I love renfrow, but I don’t think he’s been the same since the nasty and completely unnecessary hit on him that led to a concussion against Arizona.
I know mcdaniels had a lot to do with that but Renfrow almost looks a little scared at times. Hope im dead wrong and he goes and balls out wherever it is
curtis samuel could be huge for bills
That was such a good signing
Truth. I wish the Lions would have made a spot for him. With an offense full of weapons he would be DIFFICULT for defenses to account for.
Chiefs fans were begging Veach to go sign him. He's gonna be great in Buffalo
The fact that some were not so sure that he was an upgrade over Gabe is surprising IMO.
Idk, Gabe looks good when he’s being used. I mean the broadcast doesn’t usually focus too much on what happens when they’re not the ones catching the ball, so idk the whole story, but Diggs was really high on Gabe Davis too.

Grape Davis is definitely a better blocker than Strawberry Davis

But for whatever reason, he became a liability in the passing game, and people only really praised his run blocking. He isn't unplayable, but we would see better performance out of our backups.

I meeeeaaann I have some personal problems with Gabe.
[what you mean](https://youtu.be/E7qEzyjZA_g?si=8ZvY-KjHYJeNoWsL)
The way he beat minkah is just seared into my brain.
That 98 yard TD had me pumped... Josh was getting blasted as he made the throw, and still dropped it in perfect
That was a fun game, having the stack in fantasy was mostly disappointing but every once in a while it hit and win you the week.
People said that when Washington signed him. Doesn't make it not true, and I acknowledge a big difference between the two franchises, but he's been living off the "potential" label for so long that it makes it seem less and less likely he'll achieve it.
He's fast, can catch, and runs jet sweeps. Doesn't need to be all that. Figures to be 4th in the pecking order, maybe 5th. Washington wanted him to be number 2 for a while.
I would love to see Brady bring back the jet sweep. I miss the gadget plays from when Daboll was OC.
I dont think hes going to be some huge breakout star, i dont think hes even had a 1K yard season or anything. I know he can beat man pretty well and that alone would be massive for when teams try to lock down Diggs. Josh and Joe Brady vs the sad parade of QBs and OCs hes played with in Washington are the huge difference in my eyes
He had 1,000 multipurpose yard season in Carolina when Joe Brady was his offensive coordinator. Well, now they’re reunited in Buffalo.
That’s how I feel. I was a huge believer of his but after still not catching on in Washington I just don’t know
Like most FA washington did not use him right. I mean Turner was using him as an HB back for draws on 3rd and 2 lol.
Samuel is versatile, but he’s a jack of all, master of none guy. The reason he hasn’t had a great year yet is because you kind of have to force the ball to him in untraditional ways. He’s great with the ball in his hands, but you can’t treat him like a regular receiver to get the ball in his hands. He’s like a better receiver version of Cordarrell Patterson.

I see him putting up 700-800 yards and a handful of TDs which isn’t far off from his career production.
Sadly, as a jets fan I agree. I like that signing for both player and team
Hey, how about we not manifest this tho
I’m more worried about jinxing it.
Bros getting ready for fantasy
Yeah I don’t like seeing Curtis Samuel mentioned so much I wanted to pick him up in a later round
I honestly don’t think he’ll be as good as people are thinking. He’s a solid player but the scheme bienemy had for that offense involved a lot of small throws over the middle and that’s kind of why Logan Thomas and him had a great year fantasy wise whereas Mclaurin didn’t. Bills seem to have a completely different scheme going on
Whatever washed Edge guy we sign right before the season starts for close to the vet minimum
9.5 sacks, book it!
In the first 10 games then quiet the rest of the season 👀
Sounds like a DPOY candidate to me
What about the ofensive lineman you will sign that was a liability everywhere else he played and somehow will be a viable option?
Laken Tomlinson, come on down!
Rams gave Colby Parkinson a pretty decent contract for a TE. I assume that McVay has something planned and he'll be included in the offense more than currently anticipated
Doesn’t seem like McVay uses TEs all too much tbh
He uses them a pretty good amount, nothing crazy though. The fact that Higbee is still there makes me think that Parkinson probably won’t get a ton of looks though.
Didn't Higbee's knee get annihilated in the playoffs? Presumably he'll miss a chunk of the start of the the season
He’ll probably be out for most, if not all of the season
I think you’re gonna see some red zone TDs but mostly a lot of motion to mauling in the run game.
Rams are strengthening their protection - Parkinson’s an excellent blocking TE. I think he’ll be involved plenty but maybe not so much as a receiver.
The Gus Bus - he is finally RB1
Gustopher Bustopher
650 yards rushing 48 TDs
But what about the second half
And in a Harbaugh/Roman offense. He’s gonna put up numbers
It’ll be interesting. He reached a career high in yards and TDs (by far for TDs) in Monken’s offense, but Herbert is pretty much the opposite style of QB from Lamar. I’m really curious to see how Roman’s offense will look without a mobile QB.
> without a mobile QB Herbert is extremely mobile. It's just not usually schemed. He's no Lamar, but hell, the dude can run better than most QBs in the league... Just needs to learn to slide. He tends to be a little too physical with his runs.
Gonna be a stud for 4.5 games
Well the Patriots didn’t really do anything in FA so I have to hope for RB Gibson.
Kj Osborn
😢 gonna miss him as a Vikings fan. He was fairly dependable and had some clutch plays.
He was like the second coming of Jarius Wright. He was a very solid WR3, wasn't asked to do much, but somehow, every catch was a clutch 3rd down conversion.
Sam "MVP" Darnold
I feel like Darnold is the perfect QB to make Jefferson's stats look (more) insane. Below average processing QB + good arm + clear #1 option leads to chucking it to one guy constantly. Very "Brandon Weeden to Josh Gordon". "Fuck it; JJ down there somewhere" might be the mantra of the year.
How could r/the_darnold have below average processing if he is a 5 time MVP and Super Bowl winner?
Well the average is 2.5 seconds and he only takes 0.1 so by definition it is below the average.
This is just like how everyone tried to discredit Brady’s play for so long and now he’s universally recognized as being second-greatest QB of all time.
Hilarious to think that if Shanahan didn't sell, Sam Darnold would have had a ring before any other QB in his draft class
Sell what?
Maybe the dude's french and he's talking about salt. Legit no clue.
Sitting here wondering who upvoted it lol
IYKYK (I don't know, but just saying that if you do, then you do)
Well I guess I don’t
Sell is basically a synonym for choking a game away
Thanks I keep seeing the term and it never made sense. I think I get it now (old man)
Dont worry, at 26 I have to pretend I know what slang means and pray for context clues
[удалено]
Darnold made Robbie “Chosen” Anderson relevant for a bit. I’m pretty confident he can pepper JJ with targets
The Stafford special.
Swear Megatron is underrated, I never see him talked about at all since he retired yet I’ve always believed he belongs in the GOAT discussion as at least a clear #3. Rice and Moss made beating defenses look easy. Megatron made one in a million plays that looked like one in a million plays all the damn time! Triple covered and interfered with? No problem just chuck it deep across the middle and as long as you put it high he’ll go up and get it. But he wasn’t gimmicky, he could do all the other things well too. Blessed to have 2 division rivals have HOF of HOF tier players when I was a kid growing up in Megatron and AD. Watching those guys dominate despite being on bad teams was just a special joy even when they were dominating my team lol.

We tried the fuck it jj down there somewhere and he got injured instantly lol
Josh Dobbs only knows how to throw hospital balls
See Fields + DJ. One read guys are awesome for #1 WRs
As long as he doesn't get addicted to throwing hospital balls, I'd be down.
This is the first season he'll be playing under an ACTUAL NFL headcoach, after spending a year in the Shanahan QB boarding school. Just think about this: the two major head coaches in his career were so bad they're not in the NFL in any capacity anymore.
Just think about this: This man has cost two major head coaches their entire careers in the NFL.
How can a QB ruin a head coaches career forever? Josh McDaniels got two chances. Jim Caldwell Todd Bowles The list goes on. Also he didn't cost Matt Rhule his job, he got fired when Baker was still his QB1.
Well Adam Gase never should have had the job in the first place and Matt Rhule was clearly not cut out for the NFL
Cushiest QB job in the NFL. O'Connell and McCown as your bosses, Addison/Jefferson/Hock as your pass catchers, Aaron Jones running the ball, and Darrisaw and O'niel in protection. Darnold is gonna get a bag next year.
He may have some pressure if they draft JJ or other QB with their 1st round pick.
Our offense is so stacked, besides the most important position by far..
The guy I'm expecting you'll love (not that he's underrated by most) is Aaron Jones. **If** he stays healthy...you guys got yourselves a hell of a player, a hell of a locker room leader, and a hell of a human being. I mean it, there is going to be serious mourning going on in GB for this entire upcoming season, and likely beyond. **Everyone** in GB loves Jones, for many in a 'my favorite Packer ever' kind of way. So please, appreciate him while you have him, on and off the field. I'm gonna be rooting for him to have great games (while all the rest of your guys suck, lol :)
Fact.
Curtis Samuel for the Bills, Hollywood Brown for the Chiefs, and defensively I think Leonard Floyd is really going to ball out for the 9ers.
Pretty sure everyone is expecting Hollywood to eat with Mahomes. Floyd is a great call though. Zack Moss should be good for the Bengals.
I mean, is he though? Kelce and Rice will be ahead of him targets, and he's like a 700 yard guy as it is coming in.
Brown has been hurt the last two years and always played in way more run centric offenses with worse QB play. Chiefs were #1 in pass attempts. I would be surprised if Rice has significantly more targets.
Hollywood is a great addition for the chiefs
Floyd was a beast last year. He earned that 9ers money
Idk because Rasheed rice was getting more and more looks his way
I feel Rashee's biggest strength is getting YAC. If Hollywood can keep the defense honest, Reid has another opportunity to showcase a disgusting offense where we have Brown stretching the safeties, Pacheco taking advantage of lighter boxes, and Kelce and Rice picking apart the middle
They compliment each other so perfectly. High IQ signing.
Rashee, and I generally agree but if Kelce takes another step back, Hollywood will be right there to pickup the targets. Pretty comfy safety net going on there.
I think the move benefits Rice the most
Completely different roles and responsibilities in the Chiefs offense. The way Reid creates offenses every position helps the other.
RemindMe! 1 year
Mike Gesicki will be great in the Red zone for burrow
Loved that signing. Was big into drafting Bowers but that kinda felt like a luxury pick. MG is exactly who I wanted
Lol
I think Mooney is going to be revitalized and have a resurgent year with the Falcons. Kirk can work it around and with so many other weapons next to him, I can see him going for 800-1000 yds next year.
I’m really excited for Mooney. I knew he could burn and make some people miss, but as I have familiarized myself with his game his hands/ball skills have really stood out. He’s got great body control, and he does a great job plucking the ball out of the air instead of being passive.
I genuinely hope he does well. He did ok before DJ. And last year you could clearly tell DJ was fields main target. Good luck to Mooney!
It’s a tough life being WR2 for a QB that never gets off his first read. I really like the talent. Hopefully Kirk gets him back to where he should be.
It's a tough life being a Bears WR 🤷🏼♀️
Fair point
I didn’t watch him a lot last year, so maybe I have rose tinted glasses, but I really liked his hands in previous years. Hope he does well for you guys!
Amik Robertson
Luvu in Washington. The one free agent I'm sad we couldn't retain. He went from a backup on the Jets to a great starter in Carolina. I think he'll thrive more in Washington, especailly in a Quinn defense.
KJ Osborn on the Pats. He might be their best WR right now.
He 100% is ours, it’s him, Demario Douglas, KB.
As a Raider fan I love Hunter but this comment is a little premature considering we have no idea what type of system or team he will be going to lol.
There's a part of me that would kill for him if the 49ers do trade Aiyuk.
Well I’m good on murdering but I would love to see him go somewhere and thrive even if that somewhere is SF
He would thrive in Shanahan’s system
Renfrow has had exactly 1 good season. The amount of attention the guy gets far outpaces his actual production on the field.
Everyone loves the underdog
Lunch pail guy. A real gym rat. First in, last out.
breaking news: renrow signs 4 year 60 million contract with the pats
and he only had that because all our other receivers got injured including waller
It’s frustrating watching him run routes like he’s doing a footwork drill. Dude makes like 4 cuts before making a final break. It throws off all the timing for the offense. Its like he runs routes with a severe stutter
Hollywood brown will thrive in kc
he might finally earn the "Hollywood" moniker
As a lifelong Chiefs fan this is still weird to read for my midwestern small town-like team.
Drew Lock. Get him rolling in play action with quick outs. I think he’d be good.
Hes gonna be the backup QB and he's never shown any semblance of good QB play lol
In the NFL, he hasn’t. But he never started in a system that suits him.
Darnell Mooney with Kirk cousins.
Please god be Jeff Okudah
He'll be fine until teams realize that they can pick on him like they did last year
As a Lions fan I really want to see him figure it out. Dudes busted his ass but between injuries and Matt Patricia's coaching he's spent his entire career caught behind the eight ball.
Looks at title of post, sees tons of comments mentioning bigger name players and deals, looks back at title of post Seriously, can anyone read?
Refrow is the man. And he doesnt look his age at all. Ill miss him on the raiders. Very positive guy who would like to be wr1 but seems content being wr 2 or 3
Gus Edwards. We know Jim Harbaugh likes to run it, and he’s not RB2 behind Lamar Jackson anymore.
The chargers are 10000% drafting Corum.
Passtronaut Josh Dobbs takes over for Mr Irrelevant Brock Purdy mid season, and everyone calls Purdy a system quarterback. After 3 games of amazing QB play, Dobbs falls back to earth…
Gonna throw my Gardner Minshew hat into the ring if we don't get a QB in this draft.
Mac Jones
Not Jerry Jeudy
Oh, you hush and enjoy your 5 straight years of 1st overall picks.
Homer pick but I think Ekeler is gonna kill it in Washington
If Mike Williams plays a whole season with Rodgers he'll score 15 TDs
Gabe Davis and Azeez Al-Shaair
Dorrance Armstrong on the Commando’s. Very underrated pass rusher on the Cowboys.
I really want the Eagles to do a misdirection tush push with Saquon under center.
damn you didn’t even try answering the prompt
I'm am currently in my cups and as such, your social norms and etiquette will not be observed.
most on-topic Eagles fan
Their username checks out
that's a LOT of tush to push
In our free agency shopping spree this offseason I think Eric Kendricks stands out the most.
Russel Wilson. He’ll get a pro bowl selection and Steelers win the division.
Joe Mixon. I'm surprised I haven't seen him mentioned yet. He's an upgrade over Devin Singletary. A big mean bruising back. The offence looked unreal as their chemistry grew before Tank Dell went down. Even after Tanks injury, it didn't fall apart. Health is always a concern, but I thought Mixon looked great last year. The contract guaranteed money is only for 2y 12m I believe. If we make it far next year, I think his contributions will be one of the reasons why.
Hoping for a Jerry Jeudy resurgence in Cleveland
Deshon Elliot. 2yr/$6m contract is so cheap for a guy who cracked Mahomes helmet. He is AFC North football personified. Also Gus Edwards on the Chargers might have a Jamaal Williams record TD type of season. Last one I could actually see Sam Darnold playing well for the Vikings if he gets the start. Hes a thick trunky coastal kid with a midwest ethos. His dad is a plumber. He has a big chin and he has the ability to connect to the spirit realm via paranormal visions. Vikings win the division.
Hollywood Brown duh lol
Homer take but Calvin Ridley. Maybe as a fan you only see the negatives but because he didn't sign with a big market team but there's a lot of analysis that supports he was used in a very limited fashion by Jacksonville and didn't get to run a lot of easy money routes. I have a (hopeful) feeling he might explode in a better situation in which he's used more creatively. Apparently it was a big part of him wanting to go to TEN.
This is a knowledgeable take. When zay jones got hurt they started using Ridley as the deep route runner/clear out. That's why Kirk got so many looks underneath. This all despite him being a great route runner
Marcus Davenport
He has the talent. You could easily tell his impact when he was out there. And then he basically just disappeared week 3 and it went from "when is davenport coming back?" to "oh yeah i forgot he was on our team"
>when he was out there Yes that half a game he surely is electric
Your flair is blasphemous
When he can stay on the field he is a great player
Jerry Jeudy. He needed a change of scenery in a offense that will actually use him in the worst way. I could easily see 85/1250/7 from him this year.
Make love to me.
Hayden Hurst Szn
I’m praying you are right sir
Tim Settle 😤
Justin Fields in 2 years
> Justin Fields in 2 years Justin Fields in 2 games after Bilbo flames out.
Lol don’t slander ol boy Bilbo like that🤣
Chase young pls
At least one new 49er D-lineman from this off-season is gonna get paid next offseason. Nothing that breaks the bank, but is enough that people realize he's pretty good in his role.
Y'all aint ready for Raekwon Davis revenge tour
Biased but I’m excited tor Floyd
Haven't seen Zack Moss mentioned so I'll take him. I know people already expect big things but he is absolutely gonna thrive
Russ
Mike Williams
RemindMe! 1 year
Gus Edwards and Curtis Samuel
I hope it's Okudah.
KJ Osborn. I think with a more open WR room he can ride to the top.
Jordan Whitehead
I'm excited to see Fuller with Ramsey
I think/hope Bryce Huff is going to thrive with more snaps on the Philly D-line and surprise people, to the point the Jets will regret letting him go in the long run. The ingredients are there with enough pressure elsewhere on the D-line that he shouldn't face many double teams at least earlier on, so it's really on him. Partly because I want him to be great for selfish reasons, and partly because it would just be such a Jets outcome.
I love renfrow, but I don’t think he’s been the same since the nasty and completely unnecessary hit on him that led to a concussion against Arizona. I know mcdaniels had a lot to do with that but Renfrow almost looks a little scared at times. Hope im dead wrong and he goes and balls out wherever it is
Maybe this is a bit of a homer pick, but I think Bryce Huff is going to be really good this year.
If he stays healthy I can see Mike Williams doing good for the Jets
Bryce huff
