I won't diss someone for being wrong about a draft pick, we all are, I will however diss someone for saying they want a player, or don't want a player, and then pretend they were on the other side all along when they either succeed or fail. Or when they trash a player while they are here, and then turn around and say " why did they get rid of him, he's great," when they were talking total **** about them when they were here, as both Sam and Patsfan2 did with Tyquan Thornton.

Bottom line, we all get picks right and wrong, just don't rewrite history after the fact. I have made many mistakes regarding draft picks, that just goes with the territory when you are into the draft and make your likes and dislikes known. Even the best GM's am, and even the best are close to 50%, so admitting you don't know **** is really no big deal.
Rewriting history is a pain in the ass, I agree.
 
That was one of the things that stood out in my QB prospect analysis. Height matters.

This is what made Drew Brees special/unique. At 6 feet tall, to put up hall of fame numbers was crazy.
NFL players are so big now, hard for a small QB to see the middle of the field. Brees used to stand on his tip toes on some throws and admittedly threw the ball to a spot on some plays because he couldn't see the receiver but assumed he'd be where he was supposed to be. Guy was a once in a lifetime. One of the outliers.

Underrated quality of Brady was that he was 6'4.
 


Your love to hear it. Gilmore might the cleanest technique CB I've ever seen in the past two decades outside of 09/prime Revis. Wasn't much of an int-machine, wasn't extremely flashy, was simply a ****ing robo-corner and rarely blew his assignment. Improved in different ways every year he was here. Sherman comes very close, but for some reason I prefer Gilmore. Dude just locked you down and you had no mouthy comments to keep you motivated. Just silent shutdowns.

I'd love for Gonzo to take on some of his technique.

I'd love for Gonzo to line-up with him instead of with "Double-A", if/when Davis is injured... For one more chance in the postseason...
 
It also speaks to how screwed the Dolphins are right now. They’re committed to Tua.
Tua is an average left handed Mac Jones who looked better than he was thanks to an in his prime Tyreek Hill….now that Hill is gone he is back to what he really is…..average. And unfortunately for him and the Doofins one more bad hit away from retirement

I will admit, I saw their fast starts the last few seasons and thought that they could maybe put it all together. I’m pretty happy to be wrong on that one.
