I think they have had good coaches, but those coaches have been undermined and ignored, so they eventually are former coaches. As for a QB, can they really bring in another young guy and let him get murdered every play? Maybe they need an offensive line that can protect the guy before they go and get another QB beat to crap in a season or two. Gun shy is bad in QBs.

Looks like, with the end of the Norv Turner period, they have had: Shottenheimer Spurrier Gibbs Zorn !?!?!?!? Shananhan and now Jay Gruden. Not all A-team coaches, but definitely not "awful". It is more the shear number of them in the 20 years. Same with QBs. Those two things are poison - too many coaches and too many new QBs. All Snyder's fault!

ChrisL Posted April 25, 2019 Share #9 Posted April 25, 2019 It’ll be interesting to see what the Rams do. They have the 31st pick, rumor is they’ll trade down. I laugh at all of the experts saying the Rams must draft a RB early due to the Gurley injury. They have a stud in John Kelly they drafted last year and Malcom Brown could start for a lot of teams. It seems the national media doesn’t check the depth chart on previous drafts. OMG they lost X in free agency, they must draft for X... Not if there are 2 studs waiting in the wings...

That's somewhat disappointing, but better than hearing he's signed through 2025 or something like that. I believe his skills are diminishing and typically when that happens is they fall off the table real fast at some point. I wouldn't be surprised to see him washed up by then. The Steelers don't have a history of locking themselves into longterm bad contracts but they have bent over backwards for Big Ben. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted April 25, 2019 Share #22 Posted April 25, 2019 The draft has become a much bigger "show" in recent years. Isn't it on ABC this year? At least the first part?

BuffJim Posted April 25, 2019 Share #23 Posted April 25, 2019 The Redskins need a new owner. Bills pick 9th. Iowa Tight end is a possibility. TJ Hockenson I think is his name. There’s also a stud linebacker named Josh Allen. Which is the same name as our first round pick last year. I’ll be watching. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, I like what they did this year. They didn't trade up and got a good value on an excellent QB and traded up to get amazing value on a DE. I think Washington is going to end up with what is considered an excellent draft this year, even just based on day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be interesting to see what positions they address. They lost several DB’s, I think they will address D and O line although many still think they will select a RB. Wouldn’t surprise me if they select a QB late in the draft as they will need a back up QB next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I understand, the draft is supposed to be loaded through the first 3 rounds. After that, it starts dropping off. If that's the case, then having picks in the late first round doesn't make sense because then you have to pay those bastards first round monies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think that factored in to their decision making too. The Rams didn’t have a 2nd round pick as they traded it. They now have 4 picks in the first 100 by moving down and picking up another 3rd round pick. I’m good with the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the Seahags had 4 picks starting the draft and then let Frank Clark leave so they picked up 5. They did make 1 selection in the 1st round but they picked up a bunch of others in the later rounds including the 2nd, 3rd, and like 4 in the 4th round. I think we have 8 picks left -- most in the next 3 rounds. But they always seem to find guys that fit their scheme in all the rounds -- so I guess I don't worry. Lately our drafts up here have been no names and you just sort of trust John and Pete to do the right thing. It takes the fun out of following the draft though.
