good find.
Warren Sharp >>> all others. -
Great article and eye opening. LOVED that it's stated our 3 priorities are Edge, Center, and Defensive depth. Finally. So tired of hearing only about offense, how good our defense was and therefore can use the Shanahan method of adding players by just throwing garbage or good enough players at it.Comment

This is true and that means as long as VJ is there defense can't win championships. -
Smh at fools acting like VJ being the DC is some kinda set back are FOOLS!!!!! The defense will be EVEN BETTER than it was last year under VJ for the simple facts the talent is better and the chemistry should be on thousand -
Yeah, I think the D will be solid again especially considering we should be playing with the lead more.

VJ on one side and the Hobbit on the other are gonna tank us.

I base it on his time here and his time as a DC. He had one decent year as DC and it was only decent. His rush defense is better than his pass defense. I'm sure Mahomes and Herbert will love that. And what is making the defense/talent EVEN BETTER? We picked up 2 defensive players in FA, DL and CB/Returner. 🤷♂️ And you know we need more. Will the draft solve it when we don't even have a 1st or 2nd? Where is this chemistry coming from?

VJ blitzes more than I like but he did put together respectable defensive performances in AZ last couple years with a pail of bums. What I notice is his big weakness is if the offense has figured them out he has no answer and gets completely torched to the ground.Comment

He honestly is one of a few that keep me viewing the board less & less. -
Yeah I bet, type of people you do NOT wanna watch a game with because of how negative they are even if we’re winning these people are negative because they wish they were right about us losing!!!! Like wtf type of fan is that man!? Smh
-
Wtf you think chemistry comes from the draft? Wow dude your so far off……
**** them picks this year! If Paton was so concerned about not having a first he’d a kept the first we traded for Sean Payton! Clearly having an elite coach is more valuable than having a 1st or 2nd this year

How’s it going to be better? Because Vance has a chip on his shoulder and he’s already a good DC! He’s an attacking DC which is something we can use I’ve already said all of this! Just read! VJ system of attacking 3-4 defense with an elite shut down corner out there is going to be amazing! When you can draw up blitz packages and play zone with an shut down corner taking that half of the field away is going to be a disaster for most offenses! You people don’t know how much a elite CB helps a defense overallComment

Vance Joseph, according to Juedynuthandler is a "great DC" ...noted.Comment

Still waiting on that five straight wins.Comment

I don't think there was anything eye opening in that article. We all know we need more from the Edge position. The thought process of a lot of fans is that Bonitto was a wasted pick and Gregory is likely gone after this season.
I am actually shocked Martin is still on the roster but they apparently like him a good bit.Comment

How’s Vajayjays D faired against MahomieComment

Preaching to the choir, brother.
I have always said the Draft itself is basically a crapshoot, even the 1st round. But Shanahan "throwing players" at the defense is also something I've posted about, especially the 2007 Draft. After he (truly) crushed the '06 Draft (Cutler, Marshall, Shefter, Dumervil, Hixon, Kuper), he "threw" three of our total four '07 picks at the D-line:
.- Jarvis Moss
- Tim Crowder
- (Ryan Harris)
- Marcus Thomas
He was interviewd on NFLN after, and said something like "they'll have no more excuses."

Shanahan drafted 3 corners with his first 3 picks in 2005 when we already had the best corner in the league.Comment

Dan Reeves had bad drafts too, and as long as we're all agreeing the draft is a crapshoot (cuz we don't have a pick until Day 6), how about the crappiest-shoot draft ever?
Knowshon Moreno
Robert Ayers
Alphonso Smith
Darcel McBath
Richard Quinn
David Bruton
Seth Olsen
Kenny McKinley
Tom Brandstater
Blake Schleuter
That's TEN picks, and the only contributor ever was Knowshon. Bruton was an ok special teamer, but Ayers, Smith, McBath, Quinn, Olson and Brandstader were all absolutely worthless. And speaking of worthless, I think Blake Schlueter is the only drafted player I can remember who never put on a uniform, not even in a preseason game. (Tragically, McKinley was a suicide.)
At least all this might give guys pause before they start railing on Paton's drafts again.
