Yes. You can’t choose when you get the great edge player. You have to get them the few chances you get. That’s for all positions. Get top talent as often as your can.That’s true for every position including QB.
Aaron Rodgers only has one ring. What a scrub.
Patrick Mahomes didn’t win a chip for two straight years. Time to move on from him.
Joe Burrow has made three consecutive conference title games but he hasn’t won the Super Bowl. Should Cincy really pay him?
You get incrementally better at every position you can and hope to have outstanding players at key spots like Edge. You win if and when that group is complemented by a supporting cast that matures at the right moment.
You draft Will Anderson because you don’t plan on making an appearance in the top 5 again for some time.
Interesting. Is there a history of this projection being true for past prospects? I respect FO so I'd like to know how others have fared in this system.SackSEER, Football Outsiders' statistical system for projecting the NFL success of college edge rushers is projecting only 26 sacks in his first 5 years. ESPN assessment is “Anderson's SackSEER projection is high enough that he should certainly succeed in the NFL -- and maybe even become a star -- but it also suggests that he might not be an elite prospect.”
So I checked SackSEER from 2019. Brian Burns was the best prospect in the metric and projected 26.6 sacks through five seasons.Interesting. Is there a history of this projection being true for past prospects? I respect FO so I'd like to know how others have fared in this system.
I'd like to know about Thibodeaux, Bosa, Allen, Ferrell, Hutchinson, & Walker personally.
These are the top 5 level DE picks of the past few years and we should be able to project their accuracy a bit.
Link?So by my unofficial kool-aid wearing blinders: Will Anderson is rated as a better prospect in the SackSEER rating system than Nick Bosa was.

I'm far more concerned about building a great team than I am about having a great edge rusher.
Bosa’s projection issues were with durability. When healthy he’s Bruce Smith. I don’t see an elite guy in Anderson Jr but if you tell me he’s got Markus Golden’s motor with 25% more talent it’s worth a top-5 pick.So I checked SackSEER from 2019.

He has 35 through four.
SackSEER had Nick Bosa 4th and projected him with 22 sacks.
We're in desperate need of high floor/high character players. Anderson fits the bill nicely.Bosa’s projection issues were with durability. When healthy he’s Bruce Smith.

At a premiere position where we’re also of desperate need.We're in desperate need of high floor/high character players. Anderson fits the bill nicely.
So what is going to be our version of Pace/Skillet Hands this time?At a premiere position where we’re also of desperate need.
They were overly optimistic in 2020, they missed low on a couple of guys in 2021. If anything on the whole they rarely guess significantly low. The importance of this is not to think he’s a sure thing fir 10 sacks a year. He likely will do better with pressures. Pegging him as the next Bosa is likely optimistic, they’re saying.Interesting.

Man he became the guy I wanted when he was a freshman. I e never seen anyone with as quick a get off at snap.Bosa’s projection issues were with durability. When healthy he’s Bruce Smith.

Yeah I really wanted the Cards to take Bosa when they had a chance. I had golf lessons during that draft when I heard that the Cards took Murray. I was so pissed that I chrushed my next drive farther than I have ever had.Man he became the guy I wanted when he was a freshman. I e never seen anyone with as quick a get off at snap.

i was talking about will Anderson not the racist bosa POS.Yeah I really wanted the Cards to take Bosa when they had a chance. I had golf lessons during that draft when I heard that the Cards took Murray. I was so pissed that I chrushed my next drive farther than I have ever had.
If we got 8 to 12 sacks a year combined with insane edge setting I would be over the moon.They were overly optimistic in 2020, they missed low on a couple of guys in 2021.

This.Will Anderson Jr. is both a high ceiling & high floor player.
And we should care about SackSEER's projections because...? I mean, I doubt teams are looking at SackSEER and thinking, "Man, we better not draft this kid high."SackSEER, Football Outsiders' statistical system for projecting the NFL success of college edge rushers is projecting only 26 sacks in his first 5 years. ESPN assessment is “Anderson's SackSEER projection is high enough that he should certainly succeed in the NFL -- and maybe even become a star -- but it also suggests that he might not be an elite prospect.”
