Stop it. Just stop it! Let the experts on the internet tell him what he should be doing.
This seems out of pocket. Considering he said "the doctors can determine...". In other words... just stop.

We usually have a thread for everyday. If you guys still want me to do separate threads for each day I can create one each day . I just haven’t felt the need to post here all the time anymore.
I was just poking fun. There's positives and negatives to both ways so it's whatever IMO. I'm still able to come here and see important updates rather timely. Can't ask for much more.

It's probably just going to continue from this thread.

Ha. There’s always certain phrases from media and “analysts” where immediately you know they didn’t do their homework and are just talking.
I immediately discredit anyone that I ever heard say that AR is a “run first” QB or say that he needs to learn to “not rely on his feet”. All you have to do is watch a few snaps to see he is 100% pass first. One of the things about his makeup that I love the most is his ability to not immediately defer to his god given physical talent.
On a more general note, after that second half against the Rams.. I had seen enough. We have a GUY. This season will be so fun.
Sadly, when someone says a player is a "run first qb" or a "running qb", they never surmise that from their style of play.

The only thing about the Titans that worries me is their interior DL. Simmons and Sweat are going to be a problem.

One of the issues seen with Mitchell is that he takes plays off when he isn't getting the ball. If he is to take Pierces role outright, he will need to run those deep routes every time like he is. Pierce didn't just have to most snaps he also ran the most yards. Mitchell will need to do that and run every route like the play is meant to get him the ball.
I think Pierce is safe to be a starter for at least the beginning portion of the season just due to his experience in the system and NFL. We have a good problem at WR tho.

No on a 5th year option. Yes to an extension after this year. I just don't think $13 million annually is the right number for a great run defender.

I'd say FS, CB, and RB are about the only 3 needs this team currently has in any shape. Need a starter at FS, experienced competition at CB, and a backup RB. I'm sure bargain bin shopping for a RB will be enough.

I disagree for several reasons. 1.) We have Cross, Thomas, and Simpson at FS. All are young. I want to see a battle between the 3 to see who can start and if any are any good. 2.) We have Blackmon at SS, we don't need two veterans. 3.) We need a veteran at CB that can not only improve our CB play, but that the young CB group can learn from. 4.) I feel Baker can be cut easily if we sign a veteran CB and I'm not sure if Flowers will be 100% right away.
There's just so many more reasons to go after a CB than a FS IMO.
I'd say that FS is the position of greater need and the biggest hole on the roster. While our young CBs made some mistakes last year, the bulk of the explosive plays were from mistakes at the FS position (most of the explosive plays from CBs were Baker Jr).
We also didn't do enough to improve the position to leave it as is. Our options at the moment are the ones you listed. Cross has shown to be better as a strong safety. Thomas was good his first year, but terrible his second. So bad I'm not sure if he should get a third with us. Maybe he turns around. I won't say Simpson sucks or anything like that, but he was a 5th round pick in a weak safety draft. He can't be handed the position. A Thomas vs Simpson camp battle for the position is a weak battle.
I'd also say that an experienced FS would also help in the grooming of our young CBs. When Mike Adams was here the CBs here would talk about how much his experience at safety helped them on and off the field. I believe the biggest was tape study.
I believe if we only took one position before the season, FS would be the more important. To take and experienced CB but nobody at free safety would bring minimal results due to allowing explosive plays. If we only brought in say Diggs or Simmons tho, those plays would be mitigated even with our young CBs.
Hopefully we grab experience at both and show Baker Jr the door. Really just get rid of Baker and we might win a few more games.

Nfl.com says he might be a candidate to move to lb.

This rounds out the receiver room nicely. Nice developmental depth and can play on special teams in the mean time.

I watched some of the Pitt vs WV game from a few years ago. I like this guy at guard but not tackle. He played RT and had trouble kicking out when he needed to. Other than that he blocked well. One play that stood out was when a LB went outside and then stunted inside once the TE got out wide right to block. He almost got the sack but Gonclaves did a great job of handing the DE he was originally blocking off to the TE and had just enough time to get and arm on the LB to slow him down. It was enough for the qb to scramble upfield for a positive gain.
I think he could develop as a phone booth type RG.

I think this is the best shape this oline has been in a looonnggg time. Starters, depth, potential, versatility. I'd say that about the dline as well.
Our trenches are stacked! We will be letting some decent players go when final cuts are said and done. It's a good thing tho.

My comment was originally in a poll that got merged into here somehow. It was a joke poll so don't know why it went to the Ballard grievance thread.

Never seen that many qbs in the top 12
I'll be surprised if we see that again anytime soon. What's really going be interesting is if any are franchise worthy in a few years.

Madden rating hands down. There's alot of study and analytical research that goes into those accurate ratings.

I'm good friends with him and his intelligent cousin Elic. I didn't sense sarcasm from the comment, but does explain why it was out of pocket. If it was then my apologies for any offense. I usually indicate and detect sarcasm with tone. Over text without an emoji or lol it is all conjecture IMO.
