That would be the equivalent of not trying to upgrade the position.
Call me crazy, but the Rooneys have not had a tendency of paying for an OT market value in FA as they are expensive. If we do sign one it won't be a starter, but backup material. I mean, look how long they stuck to the "deserving" 4-round talent in LT Moore. He has been near bottom-of-the-barrel every since he's been our starting LT, each and every year. And good news on Jones, according to Kahn he will be going back to LT so that is encouraging.
Well, we know a rookie isn't gonna be allowed to truly compete, so, that's probably what we are left with.
But Shades LOVED Malik Willis, how dare you question his ability to evaluate QBs! And out of his 3 choices of Pgh QBs, he chose the best - Mason - for LAST. Tomlin is a real savant when it comes to evaluating QBs!
Did he love him? Or was that just draft bullshit.
I can't remember hearing about a QB Tomlin didn't love.
It would also be the same as trying not to lose, a Tomlin hallmark cornerstone philosophy. He doesn’t believe in playing to win.
When has Tomlin said anything that wasn’t bullshit?
I believe he did love him; he thought Kenny would possibly be drafted ahead of him and he was "getting his wings on" with Malick.
That's just standard procedure and Tomlin's "cool guy" way. He makes sure that everyone "raves" about him.
Do you recall other teams saying this? Just wondering.
We can only hold out hope that this is true, and that he actually knows how to play to their strengths.
Well he had the chance to draft him 3 times and chose not to.
Actually, now that you mention it, you hardly ever hear it attached to specific teams. However, look no further than last year and CJ Stroud and 2022 and all the QBs, and you will see unspecified "rumblings" about teams taking this view on QBs.
Blitz, we already drafted Kenny by the 20th and that came directly through Rooney, who has some say.
