My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

I'm not calling draft picks "the lottery"

What I'm saying is we can't control who gets picked in front of us.

Surely you'd agree that having flexibility with your draft picks is superior to needing to draft xyz position with a certain pick.

I'd be thrilled to draft a talented tackle with our first pick. But if we feel theres a superb (whatever) available but NEED a tackle and we're not thrilled about whose available because there was a run on tackles before our pick. Well that's a shitty situation

Maybe I worded it poorly but I'm suggesting I'd rather have flexibility to go BPA/value then to draft on need. And as of right now it looks like we could have to draft on need.

I don't care what you're saying.

You don't know anything about any of the top tackle prospects.  You're just automatically assuming that if three of the four go before our pick and we get the fourth tackle that we're getting the worst of the bunch.

And that's stupid.

If an OL falls to us, then great, Fart is cutable in a year

Man how freaking old are you? 3? We left TGG for a reason. If you want to behave like a toddler go back there

Get used to it because BO and MB are going to giggle like school girls whenever they use the word Fart.



 By like I mean they are 2 little school girls.

That's brilliant.  Thought he'd at least be making Alex Lewis money.

Damn that’s an excellent deal.

No wonder We still have Winters around. I would have bet his deal was nearly 3 times what he is getting paid.

Damn what a move by JD
Need a new one for a new board...

Not excusing GVR, but the team hung him out to dry last night. They put his derriere up on the podium to deal with the sharks but not one of these clown receivers had to answer why they can't catch anything.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well
