The curious case of Bryce Brown

[GameTime]

Norman would have been just what the Dr ordered with this secondary

and what is that?

, but some kids see college football for what it is, a barrier to them from earning money for three years and they don't like it. Start giving them paychecks in the NFL and suddenly the thing that used to be their biggest problem is no longer a problem.

who would you cite as examples of this?

in Round 5 we took Goode over Josh Norman  that right there is enough to frustrate ...forget Bryce Brown in the 7th

Yeah bro I hear ya. Josh Norman, Brandon Boykin, Alfonzo Dennard, Chase Minnifield....I mean late in the draft and these guys are sitting there just reaking of potential....and we pass. It's not like it was a secret that we needed better CBs....but we take Goode and Tandy. I was banging my head on the desk just wondering WTF?

Then, with guys like Chris Polk, Bryce Brown, Chris Rainey, Bobby Rainey, and Alfred Morris still on the board late...we take Michael Smith.

I was hoping I was wrong at the time, but it still seems like Goode, Tandy, and Smith would have gone undrafted if we hadn't taken them. Just wasted picks.

and what is that?

depth...a warm body in the secondary...someone who would actually make the team and contribute in a position where we DESPERATELY need talent....unlike those other two

If the draft were held today Josh Norman AT WORST would be a second rounder....can we say the same for Goode and Tandy?

and we cant say hindsight 20/20...Id say a good % of the board was alrady saying JUNK PICK when they came down the pike

Kinda how everyone was like wtf? when we drafted Myron Lewis in the 3rd round of the 2010 draft. At least that's how I felt.

The Myron Lewis pick was completely different. He was projected to go in the 3rd or 4th round like where we picked him, had great measurables (6'1" 4.42), and played against good competition. There was thought if he couldn't play CB he could be a good FS. Goode and Tandy were examples of the staff valuing familiarity with players and intangibles over real scouting.

Hopefully Bryce is still the flavor of the month in Philly, and he comes here and puts the ball on the ground a couple times.   

Looking for the Bucs to put one more nail in the coffin of Andy Reid.   Eagle fan will go balistic if the Bucs lay a whoopin on them.

If we don't dominate the Eagles, we have regressed. They are as bad or worse than the Raiders and Chiefs.
