The Official Vrabel vs Ben Johnson Discussion Thread

[Froob]

i think milroe will impress at the combine and there could be others when teams get desperate.

Whoever takes him….good luck. He’s a somehow dumber Anthony Richardson. He’d need the perfect coach to succeed.

Crazy talented, dumb as hell.

i want 2 qb's, if not 3, drafted in front of us so sanders maneuvering his son is bs to me. hunter or carter all day.

Carter will probably be best player available at 4. As far as I'm concerned everything but QB and CB1 is a need. I'm taking carter at 4 defense or not.

Sounds like Arena football
I like the cold weather and snow games
I love the passing game but
Running the ball is a huge part of the game
Turns into a huge advantage for those cold weather teams when they play the sunbathers

come on.. Arena football !! lol.. I'd keep grass.

The thing about Johnson is as a coach he was in the Spread, WC and EP in MIA

That’s a strong background.

I think it will depend upon what they get done in free agency. If they can shore up the interior DL then Carter makes a lot of sense, if they can’t I would go with Graham. However I think Vrabel’s priority will be putting together the strongest OL possible.

i like both esp the versatility of hunter. we need both wr and cb.

 

[Huckleberry1]

Yeah mistype

Good thing you didn’t mistype audiophile.

It’s gotta be WR Tetairoa McMillan or a LT. Nothing else at 4. Have to get weapons for Maye, I’m leaning towards McMillan, or if Hunter somehow falls to 4. The team has NOTHING like McMillan on the roster, grab him at 4 and TE Warren or TE Fanin in the 2nd round if they don’t go in the 1st round. I would trade up to get either in the 1st round.

 

[Big Bucks]

Doesn’t Detroit run the a lot? They should with those running backs and O-Line. Maybe he could bring the O-Line and backs with him. One can dream.

I think its in the 12 range each a game but been a little more for Gibbs lately due to Montgomery injury.

That’s a strong background.

..and when Johnson was at BC in 2011 the OC Kevin Rogers ran a hybrid offense (Spread, WC. Etc). You can see where Johnson got the blended offensive philosophy.

At present, Rogers is a special assistant with the Browns.

He might be our next QB coach.

Two QBs for sure, no way there will be 3 QBs drafted in front of us. One of the top 3 teams will pick Hunter.

 

[tuckeverlasting]

Good thing you didn’t mistype audiophile.

yeah...a lot of the other philes are not good.

 

[cmasspatsfan]

Yep.

Same as when Bobby Orr could've been part-owner of the Bruins... Terrible, terrible shame it didn't happen, in both cases.

Orr was offered but Eagleson never told him

 

[PatsfanTN]

GET IT DONE.

you don't think another qb could jump up draft boards after the combine ? cuz that's what i'm hoping.

I was determined that we need to draft an OT or a WR, but at this point I’m not sold on any of those players. Graham and Carter sound like sure things. I want one of those two guys. I’m really looking forward to the combine/draft process. Free agency too.

 

[Mack Herron]

GET IT DONE.

Vrabel has leverage. Could ask for anything. I imagine authority and longevity are key asks. Pressure on Kraft.

 

[raduray]

i like both esp the versatility of hunter. we need bot wr and cb.

I don't think there can be a true two way player in the NFL. Too much wear and tear. To me, the question is Hunter either the best WR or the best CB on the board? An if its CB or neither, then pass. We need OL and WR more than another CB.

He'll take Kraft for a ride
