I’ll put my trust in beane here. I agree - not the WR I wanted for all the reasons stated. But there are still some good WRs left - and mid/late round WRs bloom all the time (see Diggs!).
right now we have Coleman, Shakir, Hollis, Samuel, Kinkaid and Knox. Toss in basically a rookie with Shorter and whatever hope you can muster for Hamler. Add in one or two more kid round lottery players. It’s not a bad group. No superstar, but 6-8 good players. Plus we still have the option to add in another player (OBJ, Higgins, Ayiuk) etc. Beans always grams a couple guys late (Sheffield etc. )
And we filled a key spot in safety and DT with solid guys.
so No, I’m not thrilled. But I see how this could work. And other than Elam, Beane has proven to be a pretty good evaluator of talent.
so we’ll see. Go find a Gabe Davis or Stevie Johnson or countless others in the next 4 rounds and none of this will matter.
