When he plays we can discuss they whole wreaking havoc thing. Still I’m sorry I’m not impressed with a guy who didn’t even even have to earn his starting job and has 5 tackles in 4games.. but is suppose to be the closet thing to Aaron Donald.

ryu79 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 Let the kid play. Yikes. He has created one turnover in his single half of play. How about we let him play another game and if he does that again, everyone can simmer down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What’s with this team and drafting run stuffers In stupidly high draft position. Given the modern NFL who needs a Defence away, with a competent Offence. They are a mear after thought. If you can’t score 3 TD’s a game average, your done in the NFL, no matter how good your D is. Ref Buffalo V Pats.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As some of us have said, we just picked leo williams version 2 to replace leo williams version one What. Are. You. Talking. About. Leo never missed a game. So right off the bat how is this leo. I mean, yes, they were both highly drafted versatile D-linemen. Right now, that's where the comparison ends. Could QW end up being a very similar player to Leo, sure. Will he? Probably not. They don;t even have the same body type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers9 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 The guy is huge and I think he might end up being a good run stuffer. Not a pass rusher. I don't think he's Baby Huey. When on the field he's pretty mean. And was great at Alabama at least for one year he was. That's the problem drafting someone that high with only a short resume. Look off the field he is not an idiot or a nut. He's a good kid and some might think his casual attitude off the field is being soft. You can be mean on the field and a good guy off the field. I mean JJ Watt is a great guy off the field and not combative but on the field a ultra Pro Bowler. On the other hand that kind of money can make the toughest character a lover of mankind. You're no longer mad at the world when you have that kind of cash to back you up. You can take it easier. We'll see about him. G. Williams could just being playing mind games to get him to be great.

Contrary to what your narrative is, it’s pretty much accepted that the Quarterback is the single most important player in a team. There seems be to one common thread to All The Pats Super Bowls and that’s #12. In the last twenty years we’ve had Super Bowl Wins for:- Tom Brady x6 FQB Peyton Manning x2 FQB Ben Roethlisberger x2 FQB Eli Manning x2 None FQ but SB MVP x2 Kurt Warner x1 FQB Drew Brees x1 FQB Aaron Rodgers x1 FQB Russell Wilson x1 FQB Nick Foles x1 None FQB But SB MVP Joe Flacco x1 None FQB But SB MVP Trent Dilfer x1 Defence Won the game. Brad Johnson x1 Defence Won the game. So in the last 20 years, Quarterback lead play has Won 18 of the last 20 Superbowls. In that 20 year span, 14 Super Bowls were won by Franchise QB’s. Plus the none FQB’s accounted for 4 MVP performances, in their Wins. Only two Super Bowls have been won purely with the Defence. I think this pretty much shows that an Elite QB, is worth more than any other position in football. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My prob with him is not making the team as a starter out of training camp. Considering his rep. He could end up being a good player but more of a situational player and a run stopper. We don't expect him to be another McClendon (an average to good player) we drafted him as supposedly the best player in the draft to be a Pro Bowl NFLer. We'll see he should have value. I tried watching him on the field and thought he has an upside. He's powerful enough to merit being double teamed. Williams might just be playing head games with him to get him to be impact. I think they respect McClendon as a vet presence and leader enough that they did not want to replace him flat out. i expected that to happen around week 8 before the injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you would expect him to start and McClendon take the role of being a backup not the other way around. McClendon is a good player but Q is supposed to be Pro Bowl. But you make a good point.

All I'm saying to that comment is that you need more than great QB play to win a SB. And a QB can't go out there and stop the opposing team when it matters. Just like the Golden Boy couldn't when it came to stopping the Eagles. I'm not arguing against having an elite QB- that would be moronic. I'm saying the notion that defense doesn't matter as long as you have a good offense is simply untrue. In fact, ALL of those teams had great defense. Some of them had prolific defenses.

Not great defence, and mostly because the league wanted the hits out of the game for legal reasons. Spending your resources on D is a fools erand in the modern NFL. You can Win with a great Offence now. Defence is just a supplement to it. We are playing glorified flag football. Build the Oline, skill positions then go D. The Defence will become even more diminished. Over time as the rules keep going in favour of the offence.

All of the geniuses here who claim that there were no takers have no idea and are only surmising.

There was a trade down - 7 picks later...which would have certainly been better at 3. Of course we could have traded down. What does "Fair" trade value even mean - I mean, what really was another DT worth? Trading down and picking up a OL and a WR. Right now the Jets would be a better team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
