Honestly, I'll take the high end franchise LT over them. Especially over Ramsey.

Well I think the majority of the fanbase criticized Roman because they felt his offense would never work in the playoffs.

He did miss 2 seasons though, but glad he’s back

One and a half coincided with the franchise qb's injuries.
I think I know the planning that goes on in preparation for a season - or with the foresight of 2-4 seasons down the road, but injuries cripple that vision. I wonder how close we would have been in 21 and 22 without the crippling injuries. Especially '21.
I still think we made the right picks. I know JoeyFlex5 disagrees...

I’d take bosa in a heartbeat over stanley. As good as he is, if we had a solid healthy LT instead of him and bosa on the edge, we’d have been better off, and I’m a big Stanley fan and was very happy with the pick at the time. I just would’ve preferred bosa in hindsight

Both always seem injured and Bosa appears to take plays off. His brother now...

Really liking the Rock Ya-Sin pick up. Not a "ball hawk" but physical cb who'll challenge wrs to make a catch and doesn't seem to shy away from contact. All the pieces matter. When everyone on that side of the ball loves physicality you'll see the hits add up as the game goes on. Really been a while since I've been this excited to see both sides of the ball in action.

I am 100% sure something like that would have happened to either Bosa or Ramsey.
It's the Ravens, remember?

Im unsure about our defense.. idk how the pass rush will look nor our cbs outside of marlon.
I left on a cruise the very next day and met some people from Cleveland, so I was ok with it. I'm also still ok with it due to landing Stanley, who I coveted. Now getting Bosa would have been amazing if he was still available, but I think if Hill doesn't make that play the best we do is the 4th pick in the draft and Bosa went 3rd.

That’s a fair point, although at the time there was talk about Joey bosa falling because a lack of burst and flexibility and laziness etc. so when the kick six happened, I felt we were in a race to get a falling bosa and we had lost that race with that play.
You can’t tell draft addicts shit when you win late in a losing season lol, that was me.

Boooooo , kick six was a great way to cope with a terrible year. Browns fans were talking alot of shit. It was nice to keep them down lol

That loss was about to be embarrassing as hell and I don't care how bad the injuries were.

Right.That game and the Ryan Mallet Steelers win have a special place in my heart. It’s the pettiness in me

Sweeping the Steelers made all of it worth it, I do remember that much

YUP. Considering the fact that 2015 was the last time we swept them? Definitely worth it. I said it then prior to the game, I'll say it now: fuck a draft pick, I want the win. Fuck FitzTragic for playing like shit against the Bills the following week. Would've put the Jets in the playoffs instead of the Steelers.

I don’t understand how we can go with Tyler Huntley again as the backup. Forget the fumble (although that should also be a reason ala Evans/Cundiff), he took over a multi game lead scenario two years in a row and lost nearly every game. And i doubt he’ll fit Monken’s system as well as he fit Roman’s
