I wonder which QB they like.

And we all know who PFF LOVES on our team. It's right next to the two articles where they say we need to draft his replacement.

First half of the season they were flat-out awful. Remember we couldn't even run the ball at all until the playoffs.

I have to admit, I don't understand the PFF formula for rating linemen. This guy gave up 11 sacks and has more or less the same rating as Zeitler, who gave up two. Also gave Limeaux a 0.0 rating in a game where he only allowed two pressures... had Flowers and Solder rated as "good" LTs, etc...

Hmm, I haven't heard this narrative yet.

"Jaylen Waddle is an incredible deep threat. DeVonta Smith is an incredible deep threat. Najee Harris isn't just a bruiser, he's really good at catching the deep ball." "Also, Mac Jones doesn't have the arm strength to throw the deep ball."

Honestly... and I know this sounds like a dumb idea... but I think his best fit is at center. Move Gates back to RG where he actually is a mauler, and let a smart as fuck, athletic guy like Slater call the protections and work to the second level. Would suck to move Gates again but I think Slater is a really good tackle or guard, but an All-Pro center.

What do you like about Dyami Brown? I've watched film of him and I know some people put a 2nd round grade on him, but when I watch his tape literally nothing jumps out.

Whelp, there's always Zach Ertz.

For real. It's a really good sign that: 1. You have several veterans actively recruiting their buddies to be on the team, and 2. once those guys are on the team, they're all saying that they decided to come to NY after speaking with Judge, even though he's a no-nonsense kind of guy.

I've been warming up on him a lot too, especially if the "big-4" of receivers is gone. He's not a mauler but his footwork and technique are amazing. Incredibly smart too. Looks like a Judge guy.

He played well, but was only healthy for 4 games. It's the exact same problem we have with Barkley.

I know after the Barkley investment we're all pretty bitter about the idea of needed RB assets, but so far in his career Barkley has played one full season. We can't rely on him and need to have plan B ready for when/if he gets injured again this year.

I think if Harris/Williams falls to round 3 you have to take them but yeah, generally I agree.

We're going to get some RB help in the draft I think. Najee Harris or Javonte Williams early, Rhamondre Stevenson in the mid rounds, or Pooka Williams Jr/Larry Rountree late. Any of those guys can step in day one and contribute.

Honestly we have to keep Peppers after this year. Love this fucking guy.

I think Surtain sounds like a Judge player. Smart, fiesty, does everything you ask, selfless, a team player. Farley is more athletic, but there was a guy on the Giants podcast who said he actually graded out really poorly but made up for it with amazing recovery speed. I don't know if you get away with that in the pros. Parsons has character issues and is unlikely to be on the team, but one of our assistant coaches worked with him so you never know.

This is how I feel too. He's got all the tools to be a #1 but he has to stay healthy. Honestly, it reminds me a lot of the Plax signing back when he was playing behind Hines Ward. Plax wasn't really a "true #1" either and certainly wasn't in Pittsburgh, but he really was a valuable player for us and what we were trying to do.

If the big three WRs and Pitts are all gone (and somebody like Sewell isn't somehow still there) I think this is what you do. I wouldn't hate Slater in that spot though either.

Exactly. No more excuses, dude has to produce. I get that we need another lineman or two but Jones has to show us something.

Nice.
