I agree WR take time to develop which looking for Stevenson to do nut all for adding a guy to the mix too but again not top 3 round pick. If we could get a guy like Jamison Crowder on a cheap deal I could see cutting Beasley and use savings on a veteran DT for rotation and ot replace Star. Yet Crowder injury history is risky.
I 100% agree on CB2 and OL depth. LB depth nice but maybe find a cheaper AJ Klein type and draft Rinds replacement next year.
I remember Stevenson in the preseason doing well. He also showed seperation I'm regular season. As a KR he struggled but wasn't horrible all the timr. I agree with your draft needs and throw in RB1 I'm there too. At OG we let Feliciano go and find a solid depth guy as Bates and Williams were great down the stretch.
I bring up Hyde and Poyet as think if improve CB2 it makes S less important so we can afford for them to slip as they age.
If I'm a Fins fan I'd hate the choice. I mean yes he's young but eh I don't see a track record of success by him just a guy tied to Shanahan. Similar to Dennison and with Gary Kubiak.
I know but father time catches up with everybody eventually. I'm looking at 3 years down the road as to me that's when you can fairly grade drafted players.
Micah and Jordan aren't getting younger. It's a tough as we really in the last year or two to likely be at this level unless Josh keeps at his current pace and defense can be middle of the road or better. On offense I want a RB1.
I'm not calling for Stevenson to be a starter this in 2023 but 2024 he could.
Jonnu Smith and Nelson Agolar were bad signings if ask me toss in Belichick has a bad draft record IMO. Yet I might be biased as a Bills fan. I get Belichick past success should allow him to write his own check but I wouldn't want it as a Pats fan.
True, I could see McKenzie in a team with a young QB with questions in their top 3 WR group. Chicago was interested last year, new GM/HC but still good team fit IMO or maybe the Lions, Jets or Jags.
Injuries catching up with Beasley but love him extended at reduced cap hit. Yet not sure we would with his age.
I'm okay with a depth/developmental WR in Round 3-7.
