I wasn't crazy about taking him at #3 overall, but give "baby Q" a chance. If he comes into camp in much better shape, he can still be a player. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly is an odd phenomenon especially since the finding of these rough diamonds has spanned multiple different front offices. It is one of the few things we seem to be really good at. The franchise also did a great job of establishing a pipeline at Center that spanned for decades, starting before the merger: John Schmitt (1967-1973) Wayne Mulligan (1974-75) Joe Fields (1976-1986) Guy Bingham (1986-87) Jim Sweeney (1988-1994) Kevin Mawae (1996-2005) Nick Mangold (2006-2016) But then Idzik and Maccagnan came along and f**ked it all up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feels like the same thing all over again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Leo wasn't as athletic as Quinnen was coming out of school. And athleticism is what matters most when separating the run-stuffing DT's from potential pass-rushing DT's. Both were still bad picks, however. Especially the QW pick, since there were rather obvious alternative moves to be made. We should have either traded down, even if he had to accept 75 cents on the dollar for pick # 3, or just take Josh Allen in that spot. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a framing mechanism that creates viewpoint tribalism and camps in opposition. The intent is to isolate and target opposing perspectives and those who hold them. Here it comes: the Q defenders v “the science” Hehe Wait, what? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know that Leo was a bad pick, but a lot of people here loved him right up to the end. He was given a chance to prove himself and Quinnen should be afforded the same. He showed some bright spots last season and hopefully he improves dramatically this year. Lets see what happens? Hopefully he turns into a good pick. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't help but root for him, even if he was my third choice that year behind Oliver and Allen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
