    I think Landry has shown what he is. Not much.

    I always thought the Dobbs pick was a waste but he improved throughout the pre season. I'd keep him as developmental

    Rudolph replaces Landry as backup. Dobbs developmental #3.

    If Rudolph is the future then let Jones go and keep Dobbs frees up some money too

    They would try to stash Dobbs on the PS....I don't see them cutting Landry because who is gonna beat Cleveland....no seriously I think the keep Landry because I think they still feel he can hold the fort for a few games if Ben gets hurt....Dobbs or Rudolph I don't think so...

    I'm sorry, guys. I'm very salty. I really thought we were trying to win a championship this year and that we'd be getting some immediate help this draft.

    Can we all get off the Mason Rudolph is a first round talent stuff. Do you know how I know he's not? Cause he went in the 3rd freaking round!

    If they cut QB Landry JOnes that clears more cap space than cutting Dobbs and Tomlin isn't going to give up on Dobbs that early. You know Dobbs was a Tomlin pick.

    Yeah so let me ask you do you honestly feel comfortable with him leading the way....I don't and from the comments here many don't either. Rudolph gives us a good back up and the future.....:shrug:

    Teams do weird stuff. I thought Rudolph was the first good value they have gotten in this draft. Sadly, it's for a guy who won't help them at all in 2018.

    If your reading comprehension is up to par, then it’s pointless to carry on the argument.

    I doubt they want Rudolph to be Ben's backup in 2018.

    I remember you and me being the most vocal critics against the Dobbs pick.

    We were right. I think we drop Landry but if we cut Dobbs then we were very correct in our assessment.

    Washington will replace Bryant. Hes a deep threat gut. Will come in like Mike Wallace. Will be an instant deep threat. How good he develops will depends on his ability to learn the route tree.

    Washington was the Biletnikoff winer. Top WR in the nation. He will take the top off the defense while AB and JuJu eat up the middle.

    Rudolph in the 3rd is a steal IMO. I wouldn't have bat a lash if we took him at #28. Playing in the Big 12 is a red flag, but his games out of conference were terrific.

    His intangibles and character are amazing. He doesNT have a weak arm as some suggest. He just doesnt have the cannon that you may expect from a guy 6'5 235. And yeah he may not have escapability but he moves around the pocket like he needs to. I see some Rivers in him and I see some Brady in him.

    Here is the thing we returned 20 of our 22 starters, signed the other 2 starters via FA so we went BPA.

    Man, would be totally against a Steelers move but wouldn’t mind a shot in the dark on Arden Key.

    Dude is crazy talented but has some baggage and work ethic issues
