    and the defense almost always looked confused

    we have a second round pick, who looked decent last year, just sitting there

    the new DC has spent his time so far in GB watching tapes and trying to figure out what was wrong with the D. i think the fact that burnet has been signed yet is very telling

    If I was Pettine I would simply design my defensive secondary schemes and ask the Brass to get me some talent. Last week that Talent Pool was weak. This week we know it's weaker with CB Damarious Randall wondering what accommodations will be like in Cleveland.

    Best Defensive Backs In The NFL Draft

    David Hegler ... March 3, 2018

    1. Minkah Fitzpatrick – Alabama, Defensive Back

    2. Derwin James – Florida State, Defensive Back

    3. Denzel Ward– Ohio State
    , Cornerback/Nickel back

    4. Joshua Jackson – Iowa, Cornerback

    Comment woodbuck27:

    Looking at Mocks we might expect about 6 QB's to go off the board in Round One; and as well, the same number of Defensive Backs (6) to be selected in the First Round.

    Just rewatched part of Carolina game and once Randall sprints back on the field, doesn't know where to line up and TO called. Another time, same thing and then he gives up 20+ yard gainer because he lets McCaffrey run free underneath. Randall may have single-handedly disrupted the defense due to pure idiocy. That, coupled with his terrible attitude is a very good reason to get rid of him. Addition by subtraction.

    It wasn't all Randall. They were explaining weekly why Jones wasn't where he was supposed to be and the safeties were always arguing with underneath or wide defenders.

    wist isn't wrong in placing some blame on the coaching staff (he might be scattershot in blaming ILBs, soft n' small, 2-4 and Packer draft history) but something never gelled for them after 2010 when the pass defense fell apart during 2011.

    Its probably too superficial to blame everything that subsequently happened to Capers D on that year of transition (though I do think with a year and an offseason to tinker, offenses figured out how to attack the new base nickel). But its worth remembering this is when McCarthy began to insist nickel be the new normal and the defense needed to be ready to play "personnel packages" against offenses of the day.

    I never got the sense that Capers found a way to make it work seamlessly especially in the back end. Its very weird because I think he was a DB coach. Somehow the blitzes seemed coordinated but the coverage did not. And toward the end they were throwing everything they could at it. The old Pittsburgh teams didn't play any Cover 0.

    The whole thing needed a reset and I hope M3 stays out of it. My remaining concern is Whitt. He might be the genius developer of man coverage CBs, but man those guys contributed to a lot of boneheaded mistakes.

    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    Marshall Newhouse released by the Raiders. We can now downgrade the RT position by releasing Bulaga and resigning Newhouse.

    Not a bad backup to have though. Played some Guard.

    Schefter says Keenum to Broncos. So backup plan B for Vikings is gone.

    Need Cousins or its back to the future for them (Bridgewater/Bradford).

    I'd be more than happy with Bradford if it weren't for that pesky knee. Everything I've heard is positive on Bridgewater but really not sure what his ceiling is to be honest. Does seem like Cousins or bust.

    Or maybe McCarron?

    Trade compensation update on Cordy Glenn deal, as @PSchrags said.
    Bengals get OT Cordy Glenn and Bills first-round pick (No. 21).
    Bills get Bengals’ No. 12 overall selection.
    Bengals also get Bills’ fifth-round pick and Bills get Bengals’ sixth-round pick.


    So Bills have 3 picks in first round. They have to be trading up for a QB, right? Good news for Packers.

    How do Bills have 3 1st round picks? They had 21 and 22. They now have 12 and 22.

    I agree they're going for a QB.

    You are correct. I somehow imagined their pick as a 2019 pick. That is a lot of player to give up for 9 slots in the draft.

    Some QB just blew them away at the combine apparently. Haven't seen someone move that fast towards someone else since Fritz and Drew Barrymore.
    All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!
