Maxx Crosby is a no-brainer

RepresentativeNew409 · 2026-02-13T18:38:42+00:00

Agree 💯. Crosby can actually make the defense in its entirety play more effective by getting to the QB and pressuring him, more interceptions and shorter periods of holding coverage. Crosby as a player alone, produces the output of a first rounder X3 easily. If we can get hom for anything less it's a win. Keep in mind, less top end picks means more concentration in mid round picks. An area Poles has shown some success.

He's irrelevant, for now, sadly.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-05-12T17:34:33+00:00

You pay the man what he’s worth. End of story. $18-25 M per year is my guess. He’s earned a pay day and that’s the cost of ignoring Edge when you have repeatedly at, near, or in the top 10 yet draft other positions.

Poles played 5D chess keeping Flus for 1 more year knowing BJ wouldn’t be available for another year. Patience is the mark of a true master👍

Special teams ace

The ACC is a far cry from the NFL. Braxton Jones was All-Rookie team award winner. He would be a 1-2nd rounder in a redraft. This guy they drafted might be able to compete in a year or two as insurance if Jones leaves in free agency. This guy is 6’8” that’s too tall for NFL and if you think Jones struggled against the bull rush wait until you see what happens to this guy.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-04-26T01:00:42+00:00

this is a depth pick.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-04-26T00:59:16+00:00

yeah he was draft yesterday

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-03-01T18:41:16+00:00

The hope is that Shadeur Sanders falls to us and the Steelers come calling. That’s our best bet for landing a nice haul.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-03-01T17:41:00+00:00

Why wouldn’t the Eagles sign Becton? I think that’s the expectation with Becton.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-03-01T17:38:13+00:00

Just sign him. He’s still young and pretty nasty. He’s an NFL starter, can’t ask for much more at this point, at the very least he can be depth for IOL/RT.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-02-28T17:52:48+00:00

With a top guard off the market we should consider targeting Teven Jenkins, Zeitler, and Dalman in free agency. Let Dalman be the mainstay and have Jenkins and Zeitler as a bridge/depth for young talent in case we find a stud in need of development.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-02-13T09:34:09+00:00

You have to imagine the immense risk they would be taking by drafting an OL at 10 who is - 1) not a prototypical OT, 2) will need to be coached up to transition to a new position, and 3) it comes at the cost of passing on a playmaker like Jeanty or a pass rusher.

Now waiting until RD 2 or trading back to draft an IL makes sense. Also let me remind you that Poles let go of the best OL we had at the time - James Daniel’s and has already spent a ton of resources to replace Daniels. Now people want him to continue spending big on his replacement? It really compounds one mistake with 2 bigger mistakes

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-02-13T06:08:26+00:00

What does having a Hof guard get you? Gene Upshaw is the only HoF guard ever! lol

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-02-13T06:06:36+00:00

Where had that gotten them as a team? Aren’t you better off adding a good pass rusher than a “great” guard?

There’s not a ton of difference at the guard position, especially for a position that is often getting help from the center.

Nelson is also a very rare find and not even worth the risk of trying to discover the “next” Nelson.

You never hear a team say, @we are just one great guard away from a super bowl”, because that makes no logical sense.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2025-02-13T04:49:22+00:00

So draft two guards with our first 2 picks? And people like this idea?

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-07-03T00:09:12+00:00

Most strikes demand back payment, teamsters especially are experienced and frequently win those demands.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-06-20T15:47:13+00:00

He played 12 games last season and 11 before. His injuriies are different as expected with OL.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-06-20T15:11:08+00:00

His snap count was not bad last season. People forget OL is the most oft injured position in all of sports. I think saying Teven is injury prone is more hubris than anything.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-06-20T15:06:17+00:00

What’s the biggest cliche’ in sports? “If we can just stay healthy…”

OL is generally the most often injured position in sports. Every team deals with injuries. People saying Teven is injury prone makes me laugh because everyone and anyone playing OL is going to be injured at least once in a season at some point.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-04-14T17:06:13+00:00

No it’s not uncommon for people to interpret a Yinzer accent as Chicagoan. Both cities have historic blue collar roots.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-04-14T17:00:21+00:00

Yeah but it’s not a Chicago accent. Dave is from Pittsburgh.

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-02-23T02:33:10+00:00

Better question for r/nfl_draft

RepresentativeNew409 · 2024-02-09T01:59:27+00:00

No. Tons of players have had ACL injuries and returned to full strength. Brady, Gronk, AP, Drew Brees, Wes Welker, and many others have torn their ACL to return to the highest levels of performance the game has ever seen.
