Conklin PFF’s top grades tackle for week 16

[Dinx81]

There are going to be pass rushers in this next draft, as well as Tackles DL etc. Its just the way JRob chose to build this team. Good question is are we AFC South Champions this year with Bosa minus what we got for him.

The nfl is littered with the guys you keep harping on. Easy positions to fill like oman said. You are hung up on the picks rather than the quality of the players. Again regarding Bosa, you decided to focus solely on sacks. Bosa is a stud who commands double teams. Hes a cornerstone and is easily worth the 5 players you mentioned. The same is true of Von Miller.

We wouldn't even have the picks to fill those gaps without the trade. The choice isn't simply Bosa vs. Conklin. We'd have lower quality players across the board. Period. You can say that having Bosa would make it worth it but you can't have your cake and eat it too. Bosa is surely an impactful player but that impact wouldn't be enough to offset the talent loss across the board.

 

P.S. It's not just sacks. Ingram has the 4th most sacks+pressures in the league over the last five years and has been rated as a top 20 edge rusher for the last 3 years with a very solid grade against the run. Stop trying to give Bosa credit for the man's career.I'm sure Bosa's presence helps but Bosa is "making" Ingram by any stretch.
