    Honestly I think we’re at best a .500 team with rivers as our QB...I’m also not sold on Reich and Ballard.  Yes we’ve had good draft classes but we’ve been to the playoffs once since that tandem took over.  I think signing rivers was a horrid idea when we could have had newton or anyone else for much cheaper 

     

    Reich is so overrated by our fanbase.

    Man you are giving Dougs a bad name (my first name). Your argument makes no sense. First off, to say it’s not fair to compare him to other tight ends only makes sense if no other tight ends went out and ran routes... which they do.. all the time. A lot of tight ends are basically match up nightmare creating receivers. This isn’t a knock or a bad thing, it’s a tremendously important and ubiquitous role of the modern day tight end. Then to say you shouldn’t compare him to receivers because cornerbacks cover them, bro... he also runs less routes per game, has other responsibilities to worry about, and is still catching TDS at a rate as good or better than every single stud receiver in this league. Also, if tight ends catching 12 TD passes is simply match up based, why don’t all tight ends have numbers like his? You are so wrong that I had to dig up my account and give up my lurking just to tell you how unbelievably unfair and ridiculous you are being. He is an amazing signing and having an absolutely amazing year. Good day.

    By January, I could be cooking up an extra-crispy batch of Kentucky Fried Crow for myself and the rest of us who thought that spending a 2nd round pick on him was just too high.

     

    Only if you also agree to serve some up for those who defended Braden Smith over Harold Landry.  I think we got a nice consolation prize with Turay but I have very little doubt that Landry will wind up being a pro bowl caliber player.

     

    Admittedly though I did think Leonard was more of a late 2nd round guy (mainly due to his poor testing) so I was scratching my head a bit when we took him.  Glad to be wrong so far.
