You're literally talking to the biggest bleeding vagina over Tyreek Hill choosing Miami. I don't really forsee TEX and Logic being compatible.

Mostly said my piece in the draft thread. He maybe becomes a Taylor Rapp sort of player.

That’s an fine player but not a critical one and ultimately we still have a shit DL.

I just don’t think he’s dynamic enough or at a position of significant enough need to take in the second damn round. I think we’ve lost some perspective because he was our 4th player taken. This is a second round pick. That’s a significant asset and I don’t think we used it well.

ding ding ding!

No more hapless, shitty, missed tackling, clueless in coverage Mormon missile (if he's a missile, he was designed in North Korea.)

I remember thinking Fenton was that one player in the class who would be the weak link.

He turned out just fine
[Reply]

Well, I mean, we'll see, won't we?

If he turns into an all-pro nobody gives a shit if he went earlier than expected.

I see plenty there to be interesting. We'll see what shakes out.
[Reply]

And if he doesn’t amount to shit….then it’s another waste of a 2nd round pick.

I’m not saying I hate him either.
[Reply]

Fenton was what, a 6th rounder?

Again - I get that he replaces Dan Sorensen. But I also know that for 4 years Dan Sorensen did that particular job quite well and he was a UDFA.

When you have one of the worst DLs in the conference, using a 2nd round pick to firm up your heavy nickel set and replace an aging UDFA (who you already replaced with a quality veteran safety) doesn’t make a lot of sense to me.

Why do we need a Sorensen replacement? If Cook is to live up to his draft slot, shouldn't he be Thornhills replacement?
[Reply]

It's tough. You look at the QB's and receivers in the West and if you can't cover, you are going to get killed before a Dline would have time to do anything.
[Reply]

So take a cover safety. Cooks not that.
[Reply]

Except that neither Cook or Reid should be playing single high.

So unless they’re scrapping that concept, I’m not seeing either guy as a Thornhill replacement.
[Reply]

Absolutely.

I just never really get the bitching immediately thing.

I mean, we don't know. What kind of combination of ignorance and arrogance do you need to possess to think we would know better from our couch and laptop than a proven, successful NFL GM, head coach, and team of scouts?

We can say- Hmmn. I'm not seeing it. That's a legit stance.
[Reply]

Pretty sure that’s what I said. And explained why.
[Reply]

Don't draft based on need says all of CP


Five minutes later I don't understand how this guy fits certain schemes!!!
[Reply]

Because he’s a rookie

I’d love it if he was the starting SS, but I try not to be too optimistic about rookies, especially guys drafted this are with some flaws. I think it’s reasonable to expect to see him on the field in that Sorenson role in year 1, which is a pretty big task for a rookie

But starting safety in year 1? I just don’t want to get my hopes up like that. Maybe in 2023, but not rookie year
