The two sides talked. I’m not 100 percent sure if Cincinnati was ever serious about trading the pick, especially being Burrow was coming off such a historic season and had Ohio roots, but I know they at least discussed trade.
Sadly, a lot of Miami fans wouldn’t even LISTEN to the name Justin Herbert in 2020 prior to the draft. It’s almost absurd how irrational they were. So many stupidly typecast him as a “shitty version of Tannehill” (which isn’t close to accurate but it’s funny because those same people bitch that the team should have picked Herbert and “let a great QB go when they dropped Tannehill.. it’s hilarious really), and pulled the “I’ll boycott the team if we pass on Tua for him” grandstanding gibberish. They ignored what numbers Herbert put up, how productive and big play he was, despite playing for three different head coaches, and three different offensive coordinators, each who had three drastically different offensive philosophies when he was at Oregon, which shows he could adapt to anything. My only concern about him was he too had some injury issues. Hindsight I guess.[/QUOTE]
They have very short shelf lives. Todd Gurley is out of football. He’s 27. Christian McCaffery and Saquon Barkley are really looking shaky. Even Ezekiel Elliott looks like a shell of what he was, and he had ten TD. Le’Veon Bell is completely washed up. None of them have reached the age of 30. It’s a tough call, because a good halfback can make a good team much better, see Tennessee. However, their shelf lives are guaranteed to be short and limited. [/QUOTE]
And ascending upward. I think 50 million over 6 should do it.
Hyde and Omar are much from the same cloth. They look too much at the grass from other people’s lawns. Waddle was really good this year. Put him on Cincinnati, he does what Chase did.
Agree on most of this, but man Grier is on so many strikes and foul tips that I lost track. Dude massively bombed on his first two drafts. He made so many shit trades, free agent signings and draft picks.
Valid. Buffalo stomped their ass too.
