UntouchableCrew Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Kind of ridiculous to act like people are "holding up the draft" on a Saturday night. People have lives away from the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lith Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 Nice pick, @Long Island Leprechaun As a kid who gew up in the 70s, my friends and I all had a second team we would root for in the playoffs, after we finished with yet another 3-11 record. For me, it was always the Rams and Isiah Robertson was one of my faves. If those early 70s Rams teams had ever gotten past Dallas and/or Minnesota, he might be in Canton.

I'm trying to be true to my defensive scheme, which is a traditional 4-3. I need speed linebackers off the edge and Robertson is historically known as one of the fastest LB's. Bobby Bell on the other side is also a great athlete. Urlacher in the middle gives me lots of range -- coverage and ball attacking guys. Ironic that I have Campbell as my RB, who flattened Robertson toward the end of his career and generated a ferocious piece of videotape for the ages. Can't run him over now!

Paradis Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 10 minutes ago, Obrien2Toon said: System back you dodged a bullet Zone scheme backs are no more flawed, than a 1-dimensional between-the-tackles backs who struggle whenever their w/o a FB or outside an I-formation. There's only a handful of running backs (literally a handful) who you could slide into any offense and they'll go off. Priest Holmes was a dynamic slash and dash runner with a ton of wiggle and field vision. He would have done well in many offenses, but was a gem in that KC system.

Geez. That's the one. That video is a big part of why I put him in the top-3 all time. He was one of the only guys who was equally dominant with both his strength and speed. He could run through, over or around almost anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terminator... In fairness to Robertson, Campbell also ran over Jack Lambert and Jack Tatum. And man that stiff arm. Like Jim Brown -- defenders said when Brown stiff armed you, he actually punched you with a jab that would make you see stars --- like being hit by Sugar Ray Robinson. If this draft has nothing else, it's been a real treat to go back and see some of the videos of so many great players. Easy to forget just how good these guys were.

No one is getting punished. You always have the option to send in a list. I get that not many people have chosen to utilize it, but its available to you. Besides, at this stage in the draft, everyone's board is probably looking pretty vastly different, depending on which positions you have yet to pick. I don't think getting skipped is nearly as big of a deal as it was earlier in the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigO Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Takes 10 seconds to check the board ESPECIALLY if you know your turn is coming up. Even 8 year old have smart phones. None of us should have to wait for 2 hours to make our picks. And no one should be bitching if they get passed over if their time is up. You SLOW you BLOW.

It's called have the kind of defense that tears the heads off the offense and craps down their necks. I missed out on a few guys that would have rounded that out (e.g. Tatum) but a man can dream...
