The Random Thought Thread

i mean i thought he was overrated because he kept getting mocked at 16 to us and i think there were better players on the board when he got picked at 38 but i also thought that was pretty fair value for him - he went about 4 picks after Cam Robinson (who i thought was a steal at that spot) and 6 picks after Ramcyzk (who I completely missed on in my draft analysis and had way too low on my board given that in hindsight he was clearly OL-1 by far)

I thought lamp belonged in the mid second where he was originally projected, never got the hype there, but I did think he would at least be a starter. I had ramczyk a top 16 guy and cam Robinson a first(albeit as a guard) and I liked where both went. I low key wanted us to go with Robinson, I liked plenty other guys so I wouldn’t get mad if we didn’t, but I liked him for us a lot lol. Could you imagine if we put him where he belongs at RG when yanda retires and Zeus next to him... Good god

Damn the same lamp that everyone was high on has been a healthy scratch all year? Didn’t know that...that’s surprising

Just proves that even if a guy looks good in college it means nothing as a pro. OL used to be a safe gamble but not anymore. This is a big reason I don’t want to double dip at OL. Imagine getting two guys who struggle for years to fix your line and they both fail.

Needed 20 points total from kamara thomas and lutz for the playoffs... and this is what the saints fucking do tonight.

I swear if I didn’t have bad luck I’d have no luck at all

Judon is our best pass rusher, probably followed still by Suggs, then either him or ZDS.

Judon has come on strong but was useless early on, Suggs has had moments this year but hasn’t been consistent in the pass rush but has also improved recently, ZDS honestly has been a force all year and I was wrong about him, but before Tim was hurt and the former 2 were struggling to get rush, Tim was living in the backfield more consistently than anyone else except for maybe ZDS, and finished with 2 sacks

I wasn’t a big Marlon fan, I didn’t dislike him at all and I did like him, but I wasn’t over excited about the pick, but I still liked it better than if we took cam. I liked cam but didn’t want him at 16

i would have been ok with any of Marlon/OJ/Cam at 16
 
WTF Perriman?? While he isn't getting more than a couple targets every week, dude is catching every damn thing.
Why is it that WR's come here and forget how to run routes and bounce more balls off their chest than my prom date, but they're fine elsewhere?

Change of scenery does wonders sometimes. He looks exactly like his 2nd year self. What he should’ve been.

In all honesty I think he might be the first Ravens WR in years to do ANYTHING elsewhere (maybe Boldin kinda).

Looks like the preseason wasn't an aberration.

Yeah, I was getting ready to say the same. TBF Boldin doesn’t count because he was let go because of $ not lack of performance.

Maybe it’s Joe Flacco? I’ve always thought that Flacco threw a hard ball and it’s why so many balls deflected off WR hands. It would explain a lot.

i think our qbs timing is off alot too. Idk how to really explain it but, when our wrs run like a quick slant or something, theyre expecting the ball soon as they come out... alot of times joe would see them late causing them to basically not anticipate the ball anymore and thats why i feel like perriman would catch a deep ball for us but drop alot of short routes.. same goes for snead and brown.. crabtree, he been dropping passes long before us lol.
