Re: Pick 1. 20 Troy Fautanu OL Washington

I wonder if Tomlin called Adrian Klemm and when Klemm said he did not like Fautanu then that sealed the deal that the kid may be good.

Re: This draft = time to Pawnd da rock?

The problem is this type of offense ideally wins games 17-13. It’s designed to be low scoring, high TOP. As others have pointed out if your opponent gets out to a 14-0 lead you’re pretty much SOL. Every team in the NFL tends to be in SOL stage when down 14 points. 1st quarter 2nd quarter 3rd quarte...

Re: This draft = time to Pawnd da rock?

Does this signal a return to Paleolithic 3 yards and a cloud of dust football in an ever increasing pass happy NFL? Seems odd to focus so much this offseason on QBs then go all out on drafting OL. Just resetting the whole thing. Get 2 years out of Wilson while the line gels and then when you have t...

He also just became the primary kick returner with the rule changes today. With the new rules, it seems to me you need a guy that can side-step and then get to speed quick.

I mean, there was the season with (horribly wasted possible buddy cop sitcom title) Bibberty and The Duck, but that wasn't by choice.

People like to dismiss these reports right up until they ring true.

That can be cut at any time for a $0.00 effect on the ...

I know about the 22 million or whatever he's owed as a 5th year option, but that isn't huge money for a starting QB. Look at what Denver is paying Wilson to go away.

Schefter says they could give up on Wilson in the preseason if he's outplayed.
That would be fucking hilarious and awesome at the same time.
I have heard rumors that he is all but guaranteed to be given a new contract next off-season.

As bad as Pickett's OC, and Oline has been most of the time, I'd bet Fields had a much worse situation, and wasn't in a position to win/lose anywhere near as many close games as Pickett did in the last two years. One of the reasons one had a chance to win games late was not turning the ball over. I...
