More head scratching moves and bad draft picks than good so far. Hopefully that changes in year 3.

Success of year 1 is just completely discounted by a roster decimated by injuries in year 2? Ok.

1. The greatest rookie QB season ever
2. New OC scheme that teams weren't ready for
3. Luvu and Chinn were on fire
4. The team over performed big time

what is funny about 4 is that if some of those close games had gone the other way ; our expectations wouldn't be so high this season


everything went right last year everything went wrong this year

i still trash joe whitt's ass

agree

but i think we can all agree the drafting has not been out this world to date


outside of JD5, which my mom could ahve made that pick, who is a really good contributor from a AP draft class on our current roster?

#0 stock is way down, so not him

We’re not even to the point where the year 1 draft can be properly graded.

It would be more fair to say they aced the first big exam of the semester last season, this year they bombed exam #2 and everyone is ready to drop out of school.

Also fair to say we need 4-5 years of Peters to know what we have for sure.

It was silly to crown him last year and it’s equally silly to think we now need to blow it all up.

Totally disagree w/ that. It's year two and your 2024 drafted players, especially the higher picks need to show something. They SHOULD be showing something.

Sainristil, Newton, Coleman, Luke and Sinnott are basically giving you nothing. That's 5 high draft picks from last year that are not helping your team.

Luke was ok but you can find that guy anywhere. He's just a JAG. Newton? Nothing. Sinnott? Nothing. Coleman? Very little. Sainristil has totally gone in the toilet.

Any reasonable football person will say you have to give a draft 3 years. I’m fine with having a discussion this time next year. You’re certainly going glass half empty right now, things could look a lot different next year.

McCaffery has been great on special teams, Coleman started 12 games as a rookie. Sainistril has been a victim of a bad defensive scheme.

It’s too early to write these guys off.

This.


People need to understand the draft is a crap shoot at best, which is why you need all the picks you can get. Not all drafts are equal in talent either. That said, it's kinda rare that rookies come in and make breaking impacts in the game right away. Some do, most don't.
