People can pat Spielman on the back as much as you want.

But the Oline was the weakness of this team going in to the draft and he has done next to nothing to address it.

Yea, but we've now got a tweener defensive end and a sorta, kinda inside linebacker.

What's with drafting a LB? We're fine there. He does it every year when there are 100's of UDFA's that can play special teams.

Spielman's motto of neglecting the Oline obviously will never change.

Ever heard of Dom Capers.

Zim's beer drinking buddy who will sit in the corner of Zim's office so they reminisce the old days and scoff at the attitude of the millennials.

I think they'll look at him at LT with Reiff at LG and vice versa...see what works best

but hard to replace a solid LT with a rookie unless he just clicks right away...

hope that works out

It happens every year. We can't figure out why some guy with great college stats drops.


I'm actually pretty pissed about it!

3DT, speed at OLB, 4th rounder.

If we would have drafted Weaver and some bruiser LB, he would have complained about lack of athleticism.

Reiff is solid only in that you get solid consistency of average ability.

And that's ok.

We could have used Johnson to compete with our other Johnson

Who the hell is patting Spielman on the back?

Nobody has been cheering the assault of later picks.

ESPN and I have been. I think we are doing GREAT today.

This has been a great draft

Really disagree on online. They were very good in run blocking

Cousins created a lot of his own protection issues

He needs to be better.

Tampa Bay is getting weapons for Brady, but they also understand you need offensive playmakers. KC has taught that.

We seem satisfied we got Jefferson.

Where did I use the word Love? I said it's OK. You can't have stars at every position. It doesn't work like that.
