  1.  

    I don't care if the Raider game is ugly as sin, being 4-0 Sunday night would be fantastic. :gorave:

     

    I cant even remember the last time that we blew a team out and the win was never in doubt

  2. 2 RBs? Why? How many RBs can the team carry?

    that's my question.

     

    Forsett - lock

    Allen - proved he belongs

    Taliaferro - gone

    Richardson - lean and motivated

    Dixon - lock

    Reynolds - lock?

  3. Kaufusi was a solid pick. He is huge and can still move. Same physical traits as Buckner. Both are 6' 7" and long. Could put on another 15lbs and play DE or shed a few and play OLB

  4. I found this to be an interesting read from a former Defensive End. Mentions of J.O. in the article and written long before any of the blockbuster trades occurred.

    http://www.sbnation.com/2016/3/28/11184656/2016-nfl-draft-breakdown-ronnie-stanley-notre-dame-laremy-tunsil

    I have broken down that second guy at some positions by now, so at the very least I can compare those first two guys and determine which of the two I like more. In this case, Ole Miss left tackle Laremy Tunsil was the first offensive tackle that I broke down. Now that I've watched Notre Dame left tackle Ronnie Stanley, I have a frame of reference for both.

    Let me just say this, I think Tunsil is definitely the better athlete. He's better out in space down field on screen plays. Tunsil is a much more powerful run blocker. And, well, he just plays meaner than Stanley on tape.

    I would still take Stanley over Tunsil seven days a week and twice on Sunday.

  5. Off field issues aside. Looking back now at a few articles dissecting the comparisons of Tunsil and Stanley it appears that Stanley not only is a better pure pass blocker but has the durability and intelligence advantage. Tunsil gets the nod on run blocking but it is far easier to get better at run blocking than pass blocking at the NFL level. Per PFF, NFL OTs protect a 7-step drop on average 120+ times per year. Ronnie Stanley did it 35 times last year. Laremy Tunsil just 7 times. In addition Stanley was better again speed rushers because he is longer and able to get hands on the DE faster. Increased strength will assist in blocking bull rushers and his feet are quick enough that prevent the spin moves with proper coaching and experience. I'm also reading that after June 1 the cap hit on releasing Monroe would be 2 million vs 6 million prior to June. Personally, Id rather keep Monroe around at LT, start Stanley at LG this season and make the move next year.

  6. love this pick. Wanted Tunsil the whole time but had no idea he carried that much baggage. Did you see the Tunsil interview after he was picked and after the Draft, holy crap that guy is a Liability. He literally says all the wrong things. Stanley graded out same as pass blocker and better run blocker and can be plugged in to LG until Monroe inevitably gets injured. Stanleys interview was pure class. We had to protect our investment. This team goes no where without Flacco upright.

     

    Miles Jack is still there I'd love to take a flier on him;. or you want edge rusher, Look at Ogbah in round 2, he is joey bosa version 2.0.

  7. Tunsil is my pick if he is there at #6. Flacco is locked up for 6 years @ 20 million per. You protect that investment. Damn the sexiness of the pick without Flacco this team is garbage.

     

    However, if Tennessee wants to jump back to 6 and give us that 15th and their 2nd round 33rd overall. I'd do that deal in a heartbeat. We would have 15, 33, 36 overall... man I'd be doing cartwheels.

  8. The game is won in the trenches and that's where I hope the Ravens go with this pick.I am sick of them drafting great lineman, developing them and then losing them to free agency....but....let's get mean and nasty up front.

    True. But we also lost a lot of close games last year because of the secondary. Id be happy if either Ramsey or Tunsil is there. If not, Buckner or Jack. We cannot lose in this draft position

  9. The more I think about this draft, the more I scenarios I see. I can make a case for all the top 10 pickup except QB's to get drafted by us. Elliot, Buckner, Jack, Stanley, Bosa, Ramsey. I think we are getting a good player no matter who we take here.

  10. If this Kap to Broncos trade happens Things could get very interesting in the war room. Everyone will know the 49ers are taking a qb at #7 and have to jump ahead of them to get their guy. Ozzie will have the phone close. Eagles at 8? What would they give to jump two spots? Rams, Jets? Thats a bigger jump, maybe a 2nd or a 3rd and a 4th?

    I hope your coach takes back control of the team.

     

     

    control the team as in tripping players, letting position coaches run onto the field to fight with opposing players, allowing other position coaches to grab and pull the hair of opponents on the sidelines. Give me a break.
