One thing I DID like from JT was a few years ago........he said, You've GOT to have a good QB. If you're lucky enough to be on a good team, it's STILL going to come down to your QB. This league is so tough to win in. Many games are going to come down to you needing to come down the field at the end of the game to get the winning score....and you're not gonna be able to RUN yourself down the field. You need that QB that can bring you down the field. Poor JT....he JUST MISSED having that QB. The Ghoul always blamed JT for us not having a good QB....when in reality, it was the people in Dorsey's position that were to blame.

I liked him. zactly!

Let's get him and make Duke room with him. Was the Skins OL known to be good or bad last year. (I think bad, no?)

I hear OBJ made a nifty catch today. And Harrison was told not to miss the next flight home. - worked on Handle With Care (Traveling Wilburys), The Stake (Steve Miller), Animals (Big Al Anderson), Runnin Down Dream (Tom Petty) - I sucked. Gotta quit the yard work and get to practicin' (we talkin bout PRACTICE) - tourist asked the cab driver, How do you get to Carnegie Hall?

I still blame Dorsey for some of this. After signing Hunt he was asked if this signing made Duke expendable and he answered, Not Yet. - I love Dorsey, but that one word was a blunder. ...I'm off to rehearsal to make music

Yes. Obviously, a lot of players know enough to lay low. I'm sure Tom Brady (for example) has a smartphone....but he tends to use it to take pictures, text his buddies and check the weather. lol ......and Freddie DID win the lottery. He went from RB coach, to OC and then HC in half a season.

Gimme the old days when players didn't always have a microphone in their face and a smartphone in their hands.

A lot of attention paid to Duke on day 1. Duke talking about Duke. Mayfield talking about Duke, Kitchens talking about Duke, the media talking about Duke. Duke, Duke, Duke. ...other than that, Landry isn't gonna run around and play cause he's got a little injury. But last year he's telling the receiver's room that unless your leg is falling off, you need to practice. ?? Oh, and Freddie was seen with his arm around Duke on the practice field.

As 'someone' would've said, 'The fat-ass offensive linemen are a dime a dozen'. The defensive linemen get the ball back for your QB. But the OL is charged with Protecting your QB. The DLinemen are not. If your QB gets hurt, you're sunk. I hope we have someone who can man that RG position.

...point(s) taken. No doubt he would make us a better defense. If you can pressure the QB with your 4 down linemen then the back 7 can cover more of the field. So...you justify it by saying, 'Baker's gift was OBJ and Myles' gift is McCoy'. and then McCoy can buy an orange Rolls Royce too.

Exactly. I don't want us ruining a team salary structure by overpaying an older player.

....in Corbert's defense, there's a new OL coach. He's probably learning different stuff from last year under Wiley. And I'm sure the playbook isn't exactly the same as last year (Todd Haley's...adapted by Kitchens). And he's being asked to play a different position than he played in college). - Smartly, Dorsey brought in other OLinemen also.

...but it's certainly stinking over there, here in the early going. From what I've read here and there Corbet seems to be doing just about everything wrong. Coaches are trying to coach him up on hand placement, foot-work, punch...you name it. He was a high draft pick, so he'll get some time......but he will have to show some kind of improvement from the 'coaching up' as this offseason, TC and preseason goes on.

It's possible that Dorsey totally whiffed on the Corbet thing (including the trade). Hopefully the new OL coach can work a miracle with him.

He's an older player. Maybe he likes the idea of not having to play every single play.

10 catches per season is not impressive numbers. It's not gonna be easy to make our WR roster this year.

Didn't they just resign Danny Shelton?

Wylie was a hot shit.....but the man did not believe in stretching exersises. lol Every dog I've even known stretches before doing stuff.

From below Pluto's article:

Agreed. Except the guy can also kick FG's if needed. That's kinda' handy.

Two Words: Ignore List -- tailor the board to your liking.

The Browns may have told him that he could play Tackle in case he went undrafted. He would then be more apt to sign with us. Now that they've drafted him they pretty much owe him a shot at tackle...but that doesn't mean they won't move him. Doesn't mean he makes the team either. All of the draft picks are good in May.
