Brumerican Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) Best player in the draft . I have been watching Voch Lombardi's Youtube channel for years now. I have learned a lot about the finer aspects of the game such as O line play from this dude. He does amazing pre draft analysis for the main prospects.

Milfner Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 (edited) Panthers cleaning out the vets early. Stewart potentially out too, would be gutted about that one. Redskins apparently shopping Cravens on the day we cut our starting safety... providing he’s okay mentally/physically that could well be worth a mid-rounder.

Milfner Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 I think a.) the Chiefs know they aren't going to be able to meet his contract demands (likely to be the highest paid corner ever & Dorsey didn't leave them with much cap space), b.) he's a bit of a dick, c.) he's well known for going freelance on assignments. I actually think KC have got decent value from that tbh. Also just acquired Kendall Fuller too from the Smith trade. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brumerican Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 He can't tackle for toffee either. All the best CB's know how to hit as well as cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tegis Posted February 27, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted February 27, 2018 He has flaws for sure, but was that really the best they could get for a probowl corner after shopping around? The extra baggage is probably bigger than we have seen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Amusing to me that Kirk Cousins may end up with Jets or even Browns. Good riddance, if expectations of him being the best paid player in NFL history becomes correct, clearly the Skins made the right call (although they should have made that call last year already). Smith may provide what we need; more consistency and proven ability to take your franchise to the playoffs (but I question the 5 year contract). HTTR!

Milfner Posted February 28, 2018 Share Posted February 28, 2018 Bridgewater hitting free agency definitely makes it possible.

Think he’ll be walking, probably to the Giants. We’ve cleared out a few vets the past few days but I think that’s more cash for free agency than signing Norwalk. Personally we I think we should pay him, especially because Ryan Kalil is retiring at the end of the year so could really do with the continuity. We drafted a guard last year in the second round so I think he’ll be the replacement. What a **** find from Gettleman though, man. I miss him already. Dreading what Hurney’s going to get up to. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember wanting to draft Marqise Lee but you took him not long before us IIRC. Then we drafted a DT and you drafted Robinson just after.
