OT: 2024 Washington Commanders thread: change we can believe in!

Its sort of a rugby-ish type mass of humanity chaos scrum so never minded it to much. And yeah the Eagle have it down which made it super annoying.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

We shall see if the push is as good next season. That O line not a hit and they have Saqun now

Yeah, really not a fan of the gods stepping in and changing the rules when a team finds a way to do something exceptionally well that doesn't involve cheating in any way.

And I say that a person who believes to my very core that the Eagles can go f*** themselves.

 

[Roric]

Looks like its time to draft hurts again in fantasy

 

[g00n]

Hip drop tackles might get banned, but they won't result in penalties with the way they plan on enforcing (fines after film review to get them out of the game eventually)

Seems reasonable to me.

And someone will figure out how to stop the shove.

 

[Ridley Simon]

You mean, like, a guy that you'd put on the field even if the rest of the DBs on the team weren't involved in a 42 car pile-up on the way to the stadium?

I mean, I appreciate the depth and all…. I truly do. But the REAL best way to create depth, is to add a starting CB, to push everyone else down a rung.

Mostly a CB, but a top S would create a similar cascade as Martin seems to be able to play nickle pretty well.

Ole Miss game.

 

[Ridley Simon]

I had a vision that the Skins signed OBJ to an incentive laiden deal.

I dunno how I feel about that.

 

[RedRocking]

Ole Miss game.

I like Kurt Warner’s very dry, objective analysis. No meaningless buzzwords, or subjective hyperbole about how they’ll fare in the NFL. Just - this is what I see, the good and the bad.

Introducing the S2 Cognition test that helps predict NFL quarterback success

The top NFL quarterbacks tend to score high on the S2 Cognition test that 800 draft prospects take each year. Purdy aced his exam last year.

theathletic.com

Does this S2 Cognition test specifically designed to predict QB success or can it help predict the success of other skill positions like RB/WR? Or is that just mostly physical traits and situation?

Tush push -- I have 0 problems with it .. but they have to start calling the center early start every single time. Half the Eagles IOL move before the ball.
--------------------

OT draft prospects - looks like the tier 1 shelf drops after Guyton. PFF has him as 29th ranked prospect. PFF has 7 guys ranked before him but a few of those might be drafted/viewed as IOL and not OT.

Guyton or Morgan at 36 would be an ideal fall to us scenario.

CBS mock has Guyton going 26, Morgan 35.

Consensus seems to indicate this is a very very good OL draft class with lots of top end talent

Yeah. 36 seems *right* at the outer edge. 40 is def too far down. Could get a great G or C at 40 though. Or DB or WR.

I’d use some extra collateral to move 36 up to late 20’s if possible. I would NOT use the 40. Maybe use the 100 (and slide it back to 150 or something).

See if the Buffalo would do 28 & 133 for 36 & 100. If not, see if 28 & 144 would work for same

Ole Miss game.

11:43 dispels some of the myths, but also shows the toughness and poise under pressure that I think will make him succeed in the NFL. There's a DL in his face, he hangs in, perfect technique, and delivers a strike, completes it deep over the middle to the right guy, then takes a massive pancake hit. That's a throw very few NFL QBs can make under that pressure. Love this throw.

I feel like OBJ isn't the kind of character guy the current regime is looking for. That said, he seemed to have settled down a bit, and maybe as a lower paid, prove-it type guy, he's discovered some humility.

Thought the same thing. It's of a piece with the throw against AL where he got knocked out of the game with the chin hit -- he hung in there in the face of the straight rush and delivered a throw that his receiver had a shot to bring down.
I think all three of these guys are some seriously tough SOBs, and it sounds like the majority of the scouting community sees the same.

17:02 is another mythbuster. He gets pressure so he rolls out. But rather than tuck and run, he keeps his eyes down field, resets quickly, and hits the open guy for a nice gain. He'll run when nothing is open, but he's always looking down field, making good decisions.

The only mention successful QBs that scored high but not any that scored in the elite and did not...probably data privacy issues so still a bit dubious.

Potential Cornerback target....

Of a law enforcement manhunt.

Not sure these got posted yet. We've seen KW's 1 and 2 on both DM and JD. Here's his 1 and 2 on Caleb Williams. Its unlikely, but possible, he slips to us at 2, and if he does, I think we have to take him, baggage and all.

 

[Ridley Simon]

Yeah, Skins will take CW, I’d wager…. IF they can.

I’m hoping that the Bears agree to terms w once of these guys soon (they can at anytime now, as it’s their choice….I believe ….as it’s happened before? Obv maybe not because they can’t then play the trade game.

But they may just want to lock it up.

LSU and UNC pro days next week should at least burn off another week pretty quick.

Oh….they’ll burn something, alright

 

[Ridley Simon]

So our yearning for CB Sneed (Chiefs) must come to an end. KC is certainly trading him…..just not to us .

The return? The whopping cost of a 2025 3rd, and a 2024 7th.

UGH. Makes me want to puke. Skins couldn’t top that?!!!???!!!

I mean, What The f***??!!??!!!
