  1. And when was that?
  2. Their record for trading up in the second round is not good. There will be some really good WR talent available at 54...this past year, in a less deep receiver class, McLaurin, Hardman and Metcalf were all there to be had at 54. Don’t panic! I’d probably be looking to trade back and end up with three second round picks.
  3. If there is one thing we’ve learned, it’s that in a draft like this, no one really knows which of these receivers are going to be stars and which are not. I don’t buy the idea that the consensus top 3 guys are guaranteed stars. If I’m the GM, I’m not going to panic and move up in the first, and I’m going to take a swing at at least two of these guys with my first 4 picks.
  4. Yeah, the off-season can be very long. There is an asinine thread started about every 15 minutes.
  5. Yep. I can’t see the Lions keeping this pick, unless someone trades up to 2 for a QB and Young falls to 3.
  6. Kinda surprised Pittman isn’t on the list...
  7. Yes, you’re wrong. A few people were concerned about the 40 time, but no one thought it wasn’t a position of need, which it clearly was. That’s just not true, especially WRT the Singletary pick. Both were highly regarded prospects at positions of need, and neither was considered a reach. I recall zero outrage here. But feel free to prove otherwise by posting a link...
  8. LOL. I just gave five examples of 2nd and 3rd round rookie WRs who made huge impacts just this past season. I’d say WR might have the flattest learning curve of any position besides RB.
  9. Hmmm, apparently not too steep this year for Debo Samuel, AJ Brown, Mecole Hardman, DK Metcalf, or Terry McLaurin. Very silly comment.
  10. I’d have to say it’s an anomaly, especially when you compare it to the success rate of guys taken in the second round during the same time (Michael Thomas, Tyler Boyd, JuJu, DJ Chark, Cooper Cupp, Debo Samuel, DK Metcalf, etc...). With all the time and money spent on scouting, there is no rationale explanation for guys selected later to outperform the first rounders. Still, it makes you wonder...(I’d take Diggs over Cooper, BTW)
  11. Non-starter. Mack is 30 years old. Bears would have to throw in their first rounder this year, as well, and maybe more.
  12. What does the fact that Adams was taken at 6 tell you about Tre, who, as you said , “lasted until we took him”. I’m confused.
  13. I've heard of him...get it done.
  14. There is plenty of room at that inn...
  15. No way we would get a third round pick from AZ in that scenario. At most, they would agree to swap third-round picks with us. Might still make sense for that return... You don't really think AZ would do that deal, do you?
  16. I had no idea that there was a chance Jones would not be back in KC...guy is a monster and is clearly their best defensive player, and he's young. I can't believe they wouldn't find a way to bring him back.
  17. I suspect the reference was to Perry Tuttle...a bust if there ever was one The only move up Beane should consider is for Jeudy or Ruggs if they slide into the mid-teens...We're not spending a first and another premium pick on defense...
