it's one of those replica "the game" hats that we used to wear in the 90's .. it has a certain nostalgic appeal. the one with the circle is better. i still have mine, worn to shreds.
NM. Just saw the amazon link and bought the retro circle hat. I looked a few months back with no luck.

For any other guy in our class I could see your underlying point. We didn’t address DT as well as we needed to given our need there. However Gibbs was probably the best RB in the country for our offense in this class. He has the ability to mask deficiencies on the OL as we continue a major rebuild there.

Just because RB wasn’t a position of need doesn’t mean we didn’t make our team significantly better with this signing.
It’s not much different than the NFL draft. If an elite player is available you take him regardless of need.

LOL... Jahmyr is the #2 APB in the country, #70 player overall (and many analysts still think he is underrated). When have we had a RB rated nearly that high? And if you wonder about those ratings and how they translate to future success? Let's look at a few. I stopped at 2016 because everybody past that should still be in college:

2013 #1 APB – Taquan Mizzell #29 overall – New Orleans Saints

2013 #2 APB – Alvin Kamara #45 overall – New Orleans Saints

2014 #1 APB – Joe Mixon #8 overall – Cincinnati Bengals

2014 #2 APB – Dalvin Cook #18 overall – Minnesota Vikings

2014 #3 APB – Christian McCaffrey #77 overall – Carolina Panthers

2015 #1 APB – Taj Griffin #70 overall – 4 seasons at Oregon (split RB/WR)

2015 #2 APB – Nyheim Hines #94 overall – Indianapolis Colts

2016 #1 APB – Miles Sanders #39 overall – Philadelphia Eagles

2016 #2 APB – Demario McCall #66 overall – R-Sr. at Ohio State


I see a trend.
