    Tough call but I think it will be Landry. Tough because he is already game ready but I dont think they give up on Dobbs without seeing what he has. I know they like him alot.

    You let Dobbs and Mason duke it out.

    Doesn`t Landry make good coin? Thinking he is the salary cap victim now.

    Would live Shaquem here at #92 and call it one of the most glorious draft nights for me personally.

    Harrison Phillips is a high quality player too.

    He probably makes around 2 million, that's cheap for a backup QB.

    You think they want to lose Ben....no but it is nice to have a guy with talent unlike what we have in Jones. Rudolph has 1st round talent and if he needs to step in has a better chance long term than Jones.

    No surprise from Oakland.


    Looks like Jon Gruden has talked to the likes of Trent Baalke. Arden Key is insanley taleneted but unpredictable.

    I think so. Isn't it anyone with less than two years in the league who can be placed on practice squad?

    This draft looks more like a pissing contest between AFC North teams rather than a draft to get better.

    I hope this means Jones is out he really has no starter capable future. The 2 young guys who knows? No need to let Jones still reps . IMO LJ is all but done with his NFL playing career at this point.

    Yeah no kidding, I never said Landry was the long term answer. Landry is in the last year of his deal.

    I like the Rudolph pick but how does he help this current regime win a superbowl? That should be the main focus rn.
