Likely... probably not. I can already picture GameDay threads with people upset after a sack or a tightly contested throw... there is a few posters that come to mind quickly lol.

Besides the badge was more of a way to just have fun with something that has been such a crazy debate for weeks.

I was also pretty convinced Chase is who they’re actually taking for a while there based off things the FO has said (see Tobin’s comments about it being a deep OL draft), so I was just trying to get fully behind it.

As far as badges or whatever. I wouldn’t be down for that, but obviously if enough people like it I guess you should do it. I don’t want one though. I’m team any of the 3, and I promise I’m going to try my best to not argue for Chase anymore leading up to the draft. Lol

It is just insanity from both groups.

I know we had a heavy presence at Sewell’s pro day (including Pollack running drills with him), but I just haven’t got the impression he’s the pick like I have with Chase.

If Burrow is pushing for Chase, that's his choice.
He knows full well how important the OL is.
If he feels he can stay upright and run a good offense better with Chase and then an OL sometime later (likely Day 2) vs taking an OL in Rd 1, that's his opinion.

The only thing that would potentially upset him is if we took Waddle or Smith instead of Chase.

I know I'm all on the team Sewell side, but I'll still want to see Chase succeed when we end up drafting him. I sometimes wonder though about a few people on here that they would be happy to see the team lose just to show that they were right. A certain QB debate that spread to gameday threads comes to mind lol.


A place where you can say anything, argue nonstop and all this while being anonymous.... what could possibly go wrong 



I want Sewell, I think that is well know but I also realistically know it's going to be Chase at 5.

For no other reason then simply this from what Tim McGee said in his interview. 

"Will they get substance? Or will they get shine?” McGee asked. “Substance is picking an offensive lineman. I won’t say which one because there are a couple good ones out there. Or do you go with a receiver who is going to come in and shine and score some points and still make the coach (Taylor) look good and make him look like the next up and coming offensive coordinator so that if he loses this job he can get another job? Are they trying to compete at a top level? Or is this just a show of entertainment? And the draft will basically tell you what they’re thinking."

Taylor's job is on the line here, and if he gets Chase and they score lots of points while losing, at least he has a chance to get another job.

That McGee quote is very telling and may be the reason we take Chase. I just hope Pollack has really been researching the rest
of the OL big time. I bet he has, one thing besides the Reiff signing and the Spain signing that gives me hope is Pollack and the 
depth in this class on the OL. If we go Chase, Cosmi and Carman with the first 3 picks I would be one happy man.
