    a nickname for Nick Caserio after the Watson trade.... Big Dyck Nick (BDN)

    When he makes shrewd moves, it comes up again (giggity)... trading up for WAJ, a lot of his moves in 2023

    There was nothing wrong with our defense, so no on that. We were top tier. You could say top or 2nd best defense in the league. Our defense carried our offense all year long. Our offensive line is nowhere near top tier, and still is nowhere near the top 10 after free agency..

    I agree with you completely. I just struggle with our ability to assess talent on the offensive side of the ball. When we draft defense, walk off homerun, even a few grand slams, when we pick offense, it's usually, single, flair, or a backwards k. I'm not doubting your approach. I doubt the result. I just think we do maybe five times better picking defense than offense, which frankly, is why we have the huge chasm between both sides of the ball.

    I agree, but it's still no reason to not keep trying to FINALLY build an offensive line that could be top tier in a couple years. I'm just so sick of mediocre and people saying CJ isn't great because our offensive line isn't good. Just tired of excuses. It's been way too long since we've had a really good offensive line.

    Yeah way, way back in fact. Except for a few decent years under Kubiak, you have to go all of the way back to the days of Matthews and Munchak.
