If Carter had no off-the-filed issues he would have been drafted before anyone but the QB's.
Smith was an unbelievable bargain. I await learning about some issue of which we are unaware.
PHI has elevated its roster to the best in the NFL. Whether they can beat Mahomes or another AFC top gun is still at issue.
Robinson is LIKELY to contribute MORE than EXPECTED for any player that could have been drafted at his spot.I get that Robinson was highly touted, as was Saquon and Zeke, etc, etc...The NFL is now passing game oriented...These bad teams taking non passing game players is a waste. You can find almost equal value anywhere on day 2 or 3...Honestly Gibbs seems more like a modern day weapon to me...They could turn into Barkley and Kamara, its not elevating the teams imo
Because the QB's in the AFC are much better than the QB's in the NFC.Robinson is LIKELY to contribute MORE than EXPECTED for any player that could have been drafted at his spot.
Almost everyone had Gibbs slotted in the last 4 picks of the draft. And, he is an excellent prospect and SHOULD have been a top 15 pick in another era.
BTW, the NFC values runners much more than the AFC.
Perhaps in terms of draft capital, but not cap space. Of the top 6 RB cap hits in 2023, 4 of the top 6, including 1 and 2- are in the AFC. Most of the big hits are guys that are drafted after the first round and re-up with their team after their second or third year.BTW, the NFC values runners much more than the AFC.
Both Lions picks , McDonald Forbes and the Anderson trade up for basically 3 first rd picksLions getting a running back when they signed Montgomery and have Swift
OK, a team with 2 picks in the top 12 got better players.Houston's back to back picks of Stroud and Anderson trumps Philly...
lol, made me laugh, literallyRaiders look like they got Clelin Ferrell 2.0.
it has more to do with when they took them, not that they took them... at 8 and 12...I think everyone poo-pooing taking a RB who can catch the ball and make explosive plays is missing the recent changes in the NFL.
I dunno man. The kid was rated as a first rounder, but with Gonzalez there and all 3-4 WRs there, to me, that's where they should have gone. I am with you that he's rail thin. Clearly, a lot of experts had him rated high, so I don't think it's a fireable offense.Washington talking a 166 pound CB. A GM is asking to get fired.
I think is is pretty straightforward. If Atlanta doesn’t start getting wins this year in a weak division, the head coach and gm are getting fired. There is no long term view. The feeling is that Robinson helps that whole offense, especially Desmond Ridder. They can run a lot more read option.it has more to do with when they took them, not that they took them... at 8 and 12...

And neither of those reasons gainsays my comment... Both could have been had later in the first round... The Robinson pick was known for two weeks, at a minimum... And the Detroit rb pick came out of left field...I think is is pretty straightforward. If Atlanta doesn’t start getting wins this year in a weak division, the head coach and gm are getting fired.

In Detroit- Swift had 48 catches and his long was 25 yards. They were a borderline playoff team and want more explosive play from their receiving back. They are going to let Swift go at the end of this year. He will likely go extra hard knowing he needs to prove something in a contact year.
