Good take. I agree that JT would be the 5th option. My reservation with him is twofold; 1) He wasn’t always considered the best player at his position while he was playing and 2) he did not revolutionize his position.

Link is broken…

Soup is always full of ridiculous optimism, until his ridiculous pessimism kicks in after the 1st quarter of the first game when he declares the season over.

DawgEDawg, Soup’s just upset because what you posted doesn’t agree with his worldview. What’s Soup’s worldview you ask?

“This season is already a disaster, we’re already 0-16, everyone should be fired and now we’re starting over again and everything is horrible.”

Hah! I’m no longer a whale, I’ve lost weight. I’m now merely an Orca. And if we bring anything up there it’ll be dog treats that we can whip at rowdy Jags fans. Nothing like a soggy milkbone exploding on the back of your head. Seagulls will be circling.

Not a bad schedule. Bye week right in the middle. Only one really short week and it’s the Bengals and they have a short week too. I’m kinda worried about the week 16 Jets game if it’s gonna take 2 days to play.

Perhaps a meeting? Lets get seats in the pool section. TV would just love to see you and I frolicking shirtless behind the uprights.

Excellent post BF4L. You did research.

With only 3 WR’s seeing the field on offense I think the 4th WR spot is for development/depth and the 5th (and 6th if present) are mainly for special teams. OBJ, Landry, Higgins, and DPJ are locks to make the team so any other WR’s that want to make it have to do so almost exclusively on special teams. If…[Read more]

A year ago we had one of the better LB groups (on paper). Now we have one of the worst. Wilson didn’t really understand the defense until after Christmas and had to be told his responsibility before every play. Now he’ll be in a new defense with no one to tell him what to do. Takitaki only played defense last year because of injuries, if he’s a…[Read more]

Good. 73 belongs to one man, and one man only.

Whoa dude

Njoku has not been ‘bad’ nor a ‘bust’, he just hasn’t been a star, and has had availability issues.

When it comes to football, Joe Thomas could sell a ketchup popsicle to a lady wearing white gloves. Who am I to disagree with Joe?

Delpit has some prima donna attitude that needs to be knocked down a peg. Hopefully that happens in the preseason and not while we’re playing the Steelers. Until you’re as good as Prime Time, you need to…[Read more]

Dang Raiders.

I wasn’t too surprised when we grabbed Harrison Bryant, he was BPA and with his history playing defense he’ll get plenty of playing time on special teams.
Grabbing a center shocked me, but with him available to play G or C he’s a depth option.
Peoples-Jones also surprised me, he’s not the type of WR I thought we would grab. As I said in another…[Read more]

I said a 2nd, he went for a 3rd and a 5th. You said a 6th. Then you said that 6th is pretty close to a 3rd and a 5th.

The streak is still alive!

Allow me to disagree. I think our base set will be a 2 WR set with either a TE and FB or two TE’s on the field. Hooper and Njoku are both bigger receiver-type TE’s and grabbing a big, slow WR wouldn’t help us. I think we need a small burner type WR for those few times we do go 3WR sets (3rd and long) that can take the top off the defense and allow…[Read more]

Sorry Soup, you’re not allowed to like the pick. I was first and said I like it, and you know that by law we are not allowed to agree.
