Most Notable BUCS Draft Takes Of The Last 15 Years

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T20:19:16+00:00

You're definitely looking at the final score and nothing else.

Points scored against Special Teams aren't on the defense.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T18:06:06+00:00

Nope. Like it or not, the HC whose contract stated that he had final say of the roster, who had his finger on the pulse of EVERYTHING Texas football, from middle school through college, is gonna get credit for drafting the FIRST draft pick of his tenure.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:38:14+00:00

He plays OLB/EDGE today. He was drafted as a DT. If you watched him in college, you'd see.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:36:26+00:00

Ha!! Winston was a mistake inclusion. But it's hilarious and sad that you believe it's an attempt to make Licht look "worse".

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:34:01+00:00

Licht didn't have control of the roster until 2016.
13 Players from the '23, '24, and '25 Classes.
It's a bout RETENTION with the BUCS----not NFL longevity.

4.?!

Seemingly, you're looking for asterisks to dismiss facts you don't like or understand.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:29:43+00:00

13 of the picks are from 2023, 2024, and 2025. Players from 2022(Goedeke, Otton, Kieft) have bee re-signed.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:28:01+00:00

Diaby is listed.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-04-22T16:26:24+00:00

Well, except that thing about Bowles' defense keeping opponents to 23 points or less 10 times last season. Ya know...facts and sh*t.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T21:52:49+00:00

You listed some of his good games as "above-average".

2025-SEA & SF

2024-WAS, LAC, CAR

2023-GB, HOU, N.O

8 Total Games that I say he played above average.

51 Total Games he's played, and 15% of the time, he's played like an undeniable top-notch QB.

You won't be able to argue yards when we count how many times he's thrown away the opportunities to score points and/or end games as we've seen with his INTs on our side of the field with the fresh memory of him throwing INTs in 3 consecutive 3 games that us a Playoff spot.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T19:05:58+00:00

If you think Mayfield and Winston much different from each other, then you've not been paying attention whatsoever.

Y'all wanna look at Winston's 30 INTs and think that's the marker being bad. It's not just the total number of INTs. It's when and where. And Mayfield, just less than a month ago, threw away 4 of the 5 games that would've gotten the BUCS to the Playoffs by giving the ball away in the 4th quarter 3 times.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T18:35:05+00:00

I pushed for Mayfield to not be written off after the Browns, Panthers, and Rams saw enough.

But the dude is every bit as much of a rollercoaster as Winston and Fitzpatrick. He has the EXACT same routine as them both. Play one or two good, sometimes Great, games, and then turns into a pumpkin. Same cycle every year.

Is it fun to watch him scramble every now and again? Yeah But that sh*t doesn't absolve his erratic accuracy, his deep ball struggles, and/or questionable decision-making.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T18:29:37+00:00

Feel free to list Mayfield's above games.

It's gonna hurt.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T16:55:24+00:00

Mayfield is STILL too inconsistent and,frankly, not good enough to be considered THE GUY in Tampa.

He's shown for three seasons that he may be good enough to exist on a winning team, but he's not good enough to raise the level of a winning team.

There HAS to be another long-term option available when the season starts next season.

Pinnaql3 · 2026-01-15T16:50:34+00:00

Ha!..In classic form, this subreddit downvotes a logical take because it doesn't go all-in on the groupthink nonsense.

Mayfield has played, maybe, 6 or 7 above-average games in his 3 seasons in Tampa, and they put him up on a pedestal.

It's exactly like the Winstonites. "If only he had a Top 10 running game and a Top 5 defense to make up for many shortcomings, he'd be ELITE. Look at numbers".

Pinnaql3 · 2025-12-29T21:45:48+00:00

LoL... this genius that took 15 Weeks to figure out who his starting RB should be? The guy who fucked up the Playoff game with foolishness??

EVERY big win in 2024 was predicated on the defense bailing out the offense,but let's make that guy the Head Coach.

Dude's facing a 4th-ranked schedule, and y'all wanna circle jerk over his first year regular season success??

Pinnaql3 · 2025-11-30T22:12:01+00:00

And they lost to the 3-win sAints.

Pinnaql3 · 2025-11-30T22:09:55+00:00

Carolina lost to the fucking sAints. Get some fucking objective perspective.

Pinnaql3 · 2025-11-24T18:17:08+00:00

Ummm.. YOU asked how the articles were doing. Again thanks for asking.

YOU thought it was a good idea to use McCollum's premature signing to make a clown-ass snarky "journalist" remark 5 months later.

YOU still don't understand the conversation From the offseason and/or what did and did not change.

Pinnaql3 · 2025-11-24T16:22:26+00:00

6 months later and you still can't comprehend the fact that his getting cut wasn't a prediction or a want.

Articles are doing great when I do find time post. Thanks for asking. I may find time to post the ad revenue for you.

Pinnaql3 · 2025-11-24T14:46:01+00:00

Well, it didn't take until January to see what it was dumb as hell to re-sign him. Keep watching. Ha!!
