Nzoner's Game Room>Fred Warner gets paid
Sassy Squatch 12:06 PM 07-21-2021

Fred Warner's five-year, $95M extension makes him for now the highest paid ILB in NFL history (surpassing Bobby Wagner at $18M/year).

He's never missed a game, played 95% of the team's snaps, excels in pass coverage and quarterbacks their defense.

An elite player in his prime.

Is this more of your notoriously hilarious homerism? Just because we had an off year that draft, doesn't mean that EVERY player in the draft sucked and there was nothing to be done.
Browns :-)

Veach likes to talk about the draft in terms of pockets.

Well this wasn’t a very good pocket.

Also, Nnadi is better than 75% of the guys on that list.

Screeching about how we could have had Fred Warner instead of Breeland Speaks is Deberg-level shit.

It's the same fucking shit Chiefs fans do with DK Metcalf and how we should have taken him instead of Hardman. Just about every fucking team passed on him multiple times. At that point, it's not so much the Seahawks outsmarting the NFL or the Chiefs outsmarting themselves. It's more that ONE team had to fucking pick him, and the Seahawks ended up being the lucky ones.

Hell, why stop there? You should have picked the correct lottery numbers! Instead you got nothing! You clearly outsmarted yourself with that ticket selection, and now you'll have to pay for it!

"Metcalf went a full round later than Hardman."

Wut? Hardman was #56, Metcalf was #64.

Whatever. It's still fucking stupid ass shit to pine for Metcalf. Beginning in the 2nd round, if you end up getting a stud player, it's basically more luck than anything.

Luck that the guy falls to you. Luck that your scouts did your homework. Luck that you put him in the right spot on the draft board. Luck that you fucking coach him up the right way and get him success. Luck that he puts in the time to be great.

Don't get me wrong. I love shitting on the Speaks pick. It's one of my hobbies. But that's not hindsight-- that's me crowing about one of the few football opinions I have that was correct the entire time. I don't just look at who the good players were taken after that pick and go ThAtS wHaT i WoUlD HaVE dOnE!!!!!!!!~~~~

It's perfectly valid to bemoan missed draft picks. We've had plenty. Just keep them in perspective. Every organization misses, every year. We've also hit on some big ones. The balance of it all is what matters. Don't dwell on the negative but it's okay to point it out.

every team passed on DK twice basically except a few who had traded out of those rounds... the point is he was where he was for a reason. Teams had doubts and he exceeded expectations. It's not like 32 teams passed on the prospect Calvin Johnson twice.

It is cool that the whole board has to explain to one poster that one comment clearly meant at and behind where speaks was picked for one simpleton though. #teamwork

You continue to miss the point about this draft in regards to the Chiefs and what was available to them.

Not to mention 3 of them are TE’s and one is a RB. The Chiefs weren’t drafting a TE or RB early in 2018 regardless. Not to mention guys like Goedert and Gesicki are talented, but haven’t quite put it together.
We couldn't run 2 TE sets? I'm unaware of that rule. Mahomes couldn't make Goedert and Gesicki look good for a season or 2 and then we ship them off for more draft capital? That sucks.

Point is, the draft didn't suck. You're moving the goal posts from your strong original statement.

No, you just haven’t understood my point from the beginning even after it has been explained to you.

Because you’re a fucking moron.

Please and thank you.

Nice job shitting on this thread with the context was clearly implied. Sorry, but most posters don't want to dumb things down for those who don't have any deductive reasoning skills...

OK. So let's settle this:

Does the 2018 NFL draft suck?

Answer honestly you dipfuck homer.

Outside of the first 40 picks or so?

Absolutely.

Does it suck overall? I’d say it does for that reason. Of course there’s going to be talent at the top. There almost always is. Just because it wasn’t 2013, meaning completely shit at the top, doesn’t mean it wasn’t a pretty bad draft class overall.

Also, how the fuck does me being a homer have any relevance to this discussion? JFC you’re stupid.

Sucks for Warner that he's going to get Kelce'd.

He's going to be the highest paid LB just long enough to set the parameters for Darius Leonard to become the highest paid LB.
