The rest of the defense was supposed to benefit from this Amazing pass rush...

I think Christian is depth. Wes Martin looks like another wasted oline pick.

Bakhitari (GB) just signed a massive extension. Ravens Stanley signed a massive extension. Those were the 2 big legit all pros worth top dollar. I ma very curious to see what type of cuts have to be made due to the shrinking cap next year.

Crazy thought ..

option 1:

Moses (LT), Martin or FA (LG), Roullier (C), Schweitzer (RG), Scherff (RT)

depth - christain, martin, 2nd to 4th round IOL draftee

option 2:

top 5 draft pick (LT), Schweitzer (LG), Roullier (C), Scherff (RG), Moses (RT)

----------------------------

IM still torn on Scherff. My biggest worry is his durability, I fear once we sign him to a massive 5 year deal his knees will blow out or some linger back injury.

But do we really want to create a new hole when we are trying to patch 2 spots already on the O line?

perfect world .. scherff comes back down to reality and signs a 10-12M per type deal.

But arent LBs a lesser need in modern NFL? I liked the thought approach coming in where we took below non-starters and only asked them to do what they do well.

KPL - coverage TE. go cover TEs and read the backs

Bostic - run stuffer/tackle machine. Go fill the holes on run plays, you are always going to be going north/south inside the tackles.

I liked the approach but we do need an above average MLB.

I liked Talib in the booth ... but I was watching the game distracted with household chaos

It’s coaching .. it’s a mind set .. culture if you will ..at this moment we are among the worst in all of pro sports .. yea the jets maybe bad but they would beat us because we would help them beat us .. that’s the deal .WE BEAT OURSELVES!! .. maybe we need to quit drafting the best player available and actually trade down for best player for what the team needs ( which is a lot) .. we had a pretty good D line before draft last year .. what we needed was Middle Linebacker and DB .. we could have gotten at least 2 huge upgrade starters with that pick instead of a pass rusher that is really not making a huge difference ..this team does way better with the mid round picks .I’m not saying Young is not good on the right team he would be lights out however this is not looking like a great fit ..

Young is a damn good player but is he really a legit difference maker? We have to give him 2 full seasons to judge... Right now he doesn't look any better than Sweat did last yr and we drafted him in the 20's...

Nothing to see here move along ... move along...

RR is garbage. We can go through the exercise of its his first year, let him get his guys, etc etc for the next 2-5 years but Im not impressed with what I have seen or heard from him so far. No doubt this team is lacking heavily in personnel but RR is a subtractor not an additive.

Being an announcer is not easy. Sounds like he just filled in for someone based on how he described what he was doing in his personal life prior to yesterday. Cut the man a break. I had no problem with him.

He is not stuffing the run. And that touchdown pass to Swift was just sad. He is a liability. The 2 down stuffer is going the way of the dinosaur. We need an athletic guy in there that can be the leader of the defense.

It's funny because Rivera and Del Rio were LBs, and it's probably our worst unit on the team.

[sdskinsfan2001]

I feel bad for Chase. If any of the QBs that were drafted after him pan out, a good percentage of the fan base will hold that against him.

Chase really hopes we get a QB in the top 5 next year.

There are a lot of 1 to 3 win teams out there. Any win can move your pick back several spots. Our game this weekend is a huge game in the draft bowl.
