Sadly, this will likely show up in the playoffs at the wrong time. Think about it…the defense has been the issue for while now and has cost us wins in almost every “game of the year” in the nfl. Allen plays his guts out and the defense fails him. What makes it worse is that that side of the ball is our HCs specialty. Not a lot of confidence right now that it won’t show up again in a tight situation.

The main issue is Mack Hollins is in the game in the first place. That guy is core special teamer, but not a starting nfl wr.

If anything…I’m more upset we passed on creed Humphrey and instead took Carlos Basham. Or even the fact that we wanted McDuffie and the chiefs jumped us to get him.

I think Dawson Knox will be one.

If they didn’t go to the same school would you say this? Come on. This is just really lazy.

This is a really good point.

He also must have sent Beane a text last year before round one that said “Dalton Kincaid”…

For those of you that aren’t thrilled about the Keon Coleman pick…remember one thing. Word came out that he was the last receiver left on Allen’s wish list. Thats a big deal. Why would Beane not want to consult the face of his franchise when trying to get him more weapons? This tells me that Allen’s wish list included Harrison, Nabers, Odunze, Coleman, and probably Thomas. Think of it this way…if worthy, pearsall, or legette were on that list, they would have taken them at 28, or at most 32 for legette. I’m sure Beane would have liked to have traded down another time, but he could have risked losing Coleman. I wasn’t overly thrilled with Coleman being the guy, but while he might lack separation on tape, and a good 40 time, he also had amazing splits in the 40 and other drills. The drills are where the football comes out in these guys…you know, catching the ball. Haha. Anyways…when you look at the bigger picture with Coleman, it’s not a bad pick at all. The guy is really athletic, has great hands and body control…and most of all…Allen wanted him.

How so? I haven’t seen anything that supports this. Still seeing odunze as a possibility.

Griffey too

He’s my draft crush. Unfortunately, it just seems like a long shot. I’m sure there are other teams that are either already in position or a few that would trade up as well to get this guy. If we came away with odunze, that would be my dream scenario.

Marino posting (cherry picking) an article saying we are more likely to stay put or trade down doesn’t do much for me. I like the guy and listen to him all the time, but of course he is going to post and article that has someone saying what he prefers to happen. Hes totally against trading up.

With all due respect…have you seen Beane in the first round? We are most likely trading up imo. We have the ammo to do it to get a stud to replace diggs

The problem now is we need someone to come in right away that has number 1 potential from day one. If we had Diggs, there was room for growth from the rookie. Now we need a day 1 contributor.

It’s an amazing draft for WRs. Just draft one in the first on the cheap and control him for up to 5 years
