President Donald Trump referred to African countries, Haiti and El Salvador as "shithole" nations during a meeting Thursday and asked why the U.S. can't have more immigrants from Norway.

That's if we don't get some compensatory picks. Which if I'm being honest idk why we wouldn't get one for Kendal fuller.

Id like to pick up a 4th but I'm pretty happy with 1-3 even though I'd have rather kept the 3-4 we just over paid for a hurt CB who's barely played for 3 years

Aren’t you the same one who thinks Drew Allar is a great QB? Lattimore is legitimate a top 5 CB in the league when healthy and I think he will find a way to play for a contender like us. Goodness, could you imagine in April saying this team and contender in the same sentence? What a world Also, going back to around March in this thread and catching up was a very fun read. Lot of people did not want Jayden. Had I read some of this stuff in real time, would’ve had some fun arguments defending my stance on how great he would be. Lot of intelligent folks on this board much smarter on the game of basketball than I and some really good football takes as well. Love this board.

Whereas I thought he could be, but the O line would be a danger to his success. Forcing him to scramble for long runs and endangering his development, health. His pocket presence has been notable though. He’s at matrix speed in a real time world.

Yeah seems like he's played in 24 out of 43 games the last 3 years and seems like his health is trending in the right direction for now. Obviously not without risk and seems like the Commanders are striking gold with their picks lately. But understandable that they are making a winning move now considering they already redeemed a better 3rd rounder from the Dotson trade.

And aller is having a really solid year for the 6-0 pen state. My arguments against drafting Jayden were not against his talent. I never doubted that he was good or would be good. My arguments was his age and the value of trading back for a pile of stuff and drafting a QB of the future next year once the team and locker room stabilized. Luckily Jaydens worked out and the teams really good and they put together one hell of a team in free agency and the draft.

If my math is right ML is around the 50% mark for games played on his current contact.
I hope he's good here I really do! I just think we paid a lot and over paid a bit. But

Devils advocate it's not easy to find lock down CB in the 3-4-5 rounds. It can be easier to find runnings backs, linebackers, Edge rushers which I would say is our new biggest concern other than WR .

I would have wanted to get in on the Johnathan Mingo thing I ve always liked him.

Looking better but they need to be able to catch the punt with their hands instead of their face mask.

Need to score a TD coming out of the half.

Steelers give up 14.9 PPG, 2nd lowest in the league. We have 27 in the 3rd.

Short.

Our mojo might fade from here on out. I think the book on how to defend JD is out.

I don't think so.

It's more about injuries to the o-line and your starting rb.
