Or they're going to have openings in the front office, lol.
They got the most important piece right.

Tua is a winner. He will push that thing forward in the right direction.

I’ll be interested to see who they get with their next couple picks.

Plus New England is poised to take a nose dive. That division is wide open and up for grabs.

Kinda weird how Saban screwed Miami by going to Bama and just repaid Miami by giving them the best QB that Miami has drafted since Marino.

I experienced Taco Bell's "no contact" drive-thru......they put your 1 drink in the 4-drink holder.

I'm amazed at how winners always seem to have pretty good teammates....

I have no problem with Frost sticking with his guy, Martinez

I'm guessing Burrow thinks it worked out OK as well.

It'll be interesting to see how Carolina does with Rhule and Joe Brady.

Is he drunk?

I'm not an NFL guy at all, but Simmons would have replaced the hole Keuchly left.  But Derrick Brown is a grown-ass man and unblockable.

It's B.S. for them to do that.  Even after Burrow was at LSU, he was a 6th-round projection before 2019. 
This hindsight crap is garbage.  Same with Brady at Michigan.  There was a reason he was the 199th pick his year.  Sometimes, guys improve, things work out, and that's great, but it doesn't change what happened before.
Honestly I still don’t get why Brady was a 6th rounder. And that’s not revisionist history. He played more than well enough and had a more than good enough arm to be a 3rd or 4th rounder. Brady always had an above average arm. It was never a cannon like Mahomes or Stafford, but he wasn’t exactly a pee shooter like Chad Pennington or something.

Because he was skinny AND slow.  That's a good combination to get lit up.

I agree.  Seemed like a very unnecessary dig.

I am surprised that they didn't take him because of his legacy ties to the program however.  Unless there were stipulations about playing time or something.

Lions would’ve been better off taking Simmons or Brown imo.

Simmons is like a bigger Jabril Peppers.

Gophers blocked him.
