All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

That would take care of our biggest needs, the O line and DT. I'd be happy - and there would be no ridiculous Vince Young or Vernon Davis picks.
Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

Love it.
Unless the stars align and Brick falls to #5 I'd definitely be in favor of trading down and gaining picks. This would solidify our OLine, provide depth on our DLine and give us a replacment for Milloy. If Wroten drops that far we have to take him.
i do think wroten could fall that far.. he will scare some teams off.. and he might not be a typical marv guy, but the value there you couldnt pass on.. but we could also go with the Tennesse DT, whose name escapes me at the moment.
this is the draft to be loaded up on 2nds and 3rds.
either way.. i think marv holds true to what he says and LOADS up on the o and d lines.
i would actually have a ton of fun watching the upcoming season if we added these guys, along with a couple surprise guys that dropped to day 2.
we still wouldnt win a playoff game probably, unless JP came back possessed, but it would be great to watch those young guys on the lines learn from two of the best in our o and d line coaches

I really have no confidence that Eric Winston is going to be any good at all. Fast but not quick out of his stance, and IMO too weak for the NFL. So any draft having us taking him, let alone in the first, I'm not going to get behind.

I would be a very happy dude if that happens... I highly doubt Wroten is lasting until 73, he's too good.. He may scare SOME teams off, but he aint scaring off teams like the Raiders or Giants to get past round two.. I wouldnt be totally shocked if the Giants took him 25th overall.
I'd also be holding my breath on every pick past 25 when it came to Davin Joseph, he's risen in a big way recently.
That would be a bomb draft, I LOVE Watkins, I think he's better than some of the 1st round talent in the secondary, including Williams and Allen.
