    Pats WR's ... What is a #1 WR?

    I just answered this in another thread. Wozzy is on tilt. His post are tough to read tbh. ..... "It's not that hard if you think about it for a few seconds. You might not nail down every single aspect but it's really not hard. In no order ... A)does he attract & win against CB1 and / or...

    Rookies Report For Training Camp

    It's not that hard if you think about it for a few seconds. You might not nail down every single aspect but it's really not hard. In no order ... A)does he attract & win against CB1 and / or bracket coverage B)wins consistently- semi-consistently on the outside C)has his qb's trust when...

    Aiyuk officially requests trade

    Supposedly we offered them Polk's pick so anyone that says a "a 2nd is crazy" is out of touch.

    Aiyuk officially requests trade

    I agree with a lot of this. Though bottom line is SF is looking at some massive contracts coming up and already have some on the books. I know you've mentioned "if Aiyuk has another great year" but that scenario could play out with several other players like Ward and Greenlaw and obviously...

    Aiyuk officially requests trade

    I think I've heard this a few times now. Its kind of scary how lost some fans are when it comes to non-patriot players or some aspects of the game. Aiyuk averaged the 2nd highest Y/R in the entire league last year at almost 18 per rec. I'm not trying to be mean but I seriously doubt people are...

    Aiyuk officially requests trade

    This was a post from a few weeks ago saying something very similar. "I like Aiyuk, but not that much. He gets a lot favorable coverage with teams worrying about Kittle, McCaffery and Samuel. Not to mention he has the best play designer in the league along with Andy Reid." My answer... To the...

    Aiyuk officially requests trade

    I think a few 2nd + 4th/5th for BA would be fair on both sides. I've been banging this drum for a while now. I have no problem going into the year with the young guys but Aiyuk is a man/coverage beater. Hes extremely efficient and productive. In his prime. Can separate, win outside/deep. One of...

    Semi-OT: Giants were seemingly very interested in moving up in the Draft. Potentially for Maye.

    I got killed for bringing up how Mac dealt with pressure - delayed and immediate. His pocket presence when things got messy, very few tight window passes and his post snap processing. Probably his biggest undoings in the league. Mac was an easy eval. He absolutely would have improved with a...

    We could have drafted a LT who might have started in 2025

    QB play = bartering You accept pressure that might result in sacks or INT for explosive plays-TD/ypa etc Brady, Manning, Young were all "old god-tier" at one point or another for long stretches. Brady moreso but the others peak were insane. It's all a trade off. Some guys will accept...

    We could have drafted a LT who might have started in 2025

    This was considered one of three better & deeper wr classes of the last decade. You really have no idea what you're talking about. You have a very black & white pov on things and I've noticed you keep repeating the same things. To each their own but there are some things you can't argue with...

    We could have drafted a LT who might have started in 2025

    There's nothing wrong with that, though. WR has arguably become the second most important position in the game. The trenches are still extremely important but the game has changed. There's nothing wrong with prioritizing wr in 2024/25. The only issue I really care about is value. I had Polk...

    2025 LT

    I really like Greene a lot. He's a monster and plays angry. He looks like a player imo. Very raw and "green" but that kid looks like NFL player when he explodes out his stance, handles business at the line before climbing. Fast, physical and pissed off. He's just brand new but everyone will be...

    OT: Panthers Saw Mrs Tepper Weigh in on Draft Picks

    Those guy must be thinking "yea we need Mrs Tep's opinion like we need another hole in our head." I wonder what does Mrs Canales have to say about the two minute offense?

    #1 WR? Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo anyone?

    This is false. The 49ers ran it 500 X's last year. 2018 Steelers passed almost 700 X's compared to 491, last year for the 49ers. That year Pitt also ranked top 8 for explosive plays. Sure and he'll be 29 when he signs a new deal. Just shy of 30 looking to cash in ... like I said. Aiyuk is...

    #1 WR? Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo anyone?

    JuJu needed 166 targets to get 1426. You expect those #'s if not more for that many targets. Also no one is comparing Aiyuk to HOF WRS or saying we need to give up a ton of capital for him. A 2nd & a sweetener would be sufficient. And I love Godwin but I'm not sure that's the wisest move...

    #1 WR? Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo anyone?

    To the bolded. Teams aren't playing Aiyuk any lesser or giving him "favorable" coverage bc of those guys. Kyle is definitely one of the better designers in the game though. All those guys are "schemed" open to a point but Aiyuk is actually someone they use as a "man/coverage beater." Deebo gets...

    Bruins sign Elias Lindholm to a seven-year, $54.25 million contract

    Two way C, former top 5 pick. That should still have plenty in the tank. Love the signing(s)! Lindholm gives us two top lines if we want. We have some flexibility to stretch some talent if want. Love our 3rd line now which was crucial back during our run. It's been reported we signed Nikita...

    Pop Douglas and the AVP Offense

    I will try to talk about this later and hopefully shed some light of our situation and what's happening in the league.

    #1 WR? Brandon Aiyuk or Deebo anyone?

    When Zeke got 20+ carries the Cowboys won like 95% of their games. Not bc of his carries. They were up from passing and ran out the ball. Those stats are meaningless. Deebo was clearly WR2 last year and wasn't close to Aiyuk as a WR. One guy is fed manipulated touches while Aiyuk is a legit wr...
