Telvin Smith called players only meeting last week

We used to get bad reviews for drafts like when we drafted Reggie Williams, Matt Jones, Alualu, R. Jay Soward, Anger etc and we always kinda tried to put them aside, trying to hope. It's nice not to have to do that. If players don't pan out- so be it. Like with Blackmon. Was a great pick but some things you can't control. Even Joeckel. Can't blame GM for taking him everyone thought he was legit. But please no more Matt Joneses, Reggie Williamses, Alualus etc.
 

 

The picks that hurt the most were the first round trade ups. The lesson learned is not so much to not trade up, but to not trade up for a specific player. When you do, you're almost always picking a player of lesser talent over others available. We trade up and take the Jedi knight Derrick Harvey at #8 overall, and then move up to select Blaine Gabbert ahead of JJ Watt.


 

BTW, I can see Blaine doing ok under Chip Kelley. He's the perfect HC for him. As we all know Blaine is helpless whenever he has to tuck the ball or otherwise has to improvise to make something happen. That said, the one thing he could do well was turn around and throw quickly to a spot. Well, what I just said there is precisely what Chip asks of his qb. It's a very quick offense where the qb just needs to set and throw.
