Herc Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Damn as much as I've liked Apple it sucks the Titans pulled that shit to get Conklin. Dude is an immediate stud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 No complaints with Apple, he's an upside pick who is playing well from day one. Dude has Pro Bowls in his future, at this rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigblue25 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 How does Goff get a 42.9? Should be a 9.42. Apple has been better that I expected him to be still I would drafted Tunsil who also graded high, especially considering this coming draft class is extremely weak at Oline and really good at CB in fact two Ohio St corners are in this draft that are better than Apple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Lol what did those OSU corners do against Clemson? Apple is a stud and will soon be one of the best in the NFL. WHAT he#s done as a rookie has been very impressive and there's no do it right now he was a better choice than Hargreaves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still he wasn't without issues like the penalties and he had two bad games against the Eagles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 It's hard to say how Tunsil would have looked playing tackle all season. We could have drafted him and everyone here would be saying we now have 2 busts trying to play left tackle for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GorillaNJ Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Pretty sure even with hindsight that Apple still would have been the pick, and I would still be happy with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treehugger Posted January 5, 2017 Author Share Posted January 5, 2017 Having three stud CBs is amazing. Won't last though, enjoy it while you can! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allstarjim Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Having three stud CBs is amazing. Won't last though, enjoy it while you can! Yeah I'm hoping for one more year with this trio. And then hopefully they can get a guy through the draft or something that surprises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gman329 Posted January 5, 2017 Share Posted January 5, 2017 Having three stud CBs is amazing. Won't last though, enjoy it while you can! We have DRC under contract for two more years. He's a UFA in 2019, when he's 32 years old. Jackrabbit has another four years and will be a UFA in 2021, when he's 32. Apple's rookie contract runs another 3 years, with a 4th year club option....when he'll be 24. Better save some cap space for that contract! But for the next two years, sit back and enjoy having three stud DBs, when the rest of the league struggles to find two, or even one in some cases.

My concern is that they cut him for cap space after next season. I hope that is not the case. Would be great to have that trio play the next 44 games or so together.

Would be great to have that trio play the next 44 games or so together. Yeah I'm concerned that with Apple progressing so quick and really locking down the cb2 that DRC will be regarded as expendable. I actually think he's probably our most dependable CB and probably the best playmaker in the defensive backfield other than maybe Landon Collins. Even when DRC made a mistake, the man hustles and comes up with a big play to save a touchdown. I think when I looked up his cap hit if he was released though, the numbers didn't make sense to cut him. I was drinking though and I can't claim to be the most knowledgeable on that subject...

Nas Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 DRC isn't expendable by any measure.... He's earned his paycheck and then some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
