The Jokeman

Bombs away isn't consistent. Yes, Allen can throw it 65 yards down field but to ask a WR to get open on that route or time things perfectly is no easy task as we saw with Diggs' playoff drop. Instead you play small ball to keep moving down field until get a TD or hopefully get a FG aka put points on the board. Sure you can throw a deep pass every so often to take a chance and/or keep the defense honest but to think you're going to hit one with any form of consistency is just foolish. I'll admit Coleman wasn't in my short list of WRs I wanted to us to draft. Yet I've been wrong before as I admit I never expected Josh Allen to be a top 5 NFL QB and even muttered Wrong Josh when he was drafted because watching the clips in college he wasn't always taking the way throw to move the chains and seemed like a guy who threw it long or a ball that most of the time wouldn't get completed. The more you watch the more you realize the best way to beat an opponent is don't beat yourself. As most games nowadays are won and loss by a handful of plays.

The punter we signed also kicked in college.

Baltimore's WR room isn't great, Lions outside Brown not great. Green Bay has a collection but no elite guys. Yet these teams made the playoffs in 2023.

Shhhh his 40 yard dash and gambling past are what define him not his play on the field.

My point being free agency affects how you draft.

I'll be honest I'm not opposed to it, he's proven he can play in this league. He's still young. Ideally he's a outside depth piece.

I'm hoping he does too. Yet I think people don't realize just how good he was last season.

But he added guys in UFA that started in Brown, Beasley and Sanders.

And despite all that he was a top 5 in the league guy.

True. 18-25 be ideal unless Davis shows can be a true complimentary RB.

Cook showed last year he can be a featured guy. Top 5 in rushing and scrimmage yards. That said he has to keep doing

The difference is Josh makes players around him better. Look back most WRs we've had have had their best seasons with Josh at QB. Tua needs better players around him to be better.

My point is people have brought up some of these names as guys to add to the mix. I get we lost a lot in Diggs and Davis but improved play by Shakir and Kincaid and with a healthy Knox and adding Samuel and now Coleman our offense is in good hands.

Samuel had more yards receiving last year than Odell Beckham Jr. and Hollywood Brown and 43 yards less than Tee Higgins. Just some food for thought.

The only pick I truly disliked was Travis Clayton. I mean he's a major project and can't even contribute on ST as can't see him as a return blocker. As I stated in the draft thread, he's got great athleticism but just don't see him panning out at all.

If he makes the 53 yes, if he's on the PS no we get an extra PS spot.

I understand the wanting him from athletic stand point but rarely do these types develop. We can hope another Jason Peters but with I'm gonna say Meh.

We needed a return guy. I'm not upset with this pick.

He was on the 53 man when he wasn't hurt last season. Not saying he will in 2024 but...

Shorter is still developing but I know we should throw him out with the bath water.

We have two picks left, we could take both but wouldn't be shocked if take a CB and WR.

Damn that Covid!!

Some would argue we need a Kicker too.
