And there isn't one in this class. That does happen, you don't just force a pick because you need it.

 

That's bollocks.

 

There's a minimum of two.

 

Minimum.

Picks 6 and 17 and the Giants take Jones and Dexter Lawrence..,

Metcalf's abs apparently didn't do it for him. 

 

But did they do it for you? 

[GunnerBill]

Bit early for Bradbury for me but he can play. Exceptional football intelligence. Worry a bit about his strength against the big DTs. 

[IgotBILLStopay]

Guys - the way the draft is shaping up is perfect for us. Risner, Jawaan Taylor and Cody Ford are still available. Only one TE taken so far.

I’m a big Metcalf fan but I don’t want trade up.  There will be a very good WR there at 40.

 

Teams are probably concerned about his neck. If there are any worries there I wouldn’t trade up for him.

[McGee Return TD]

Those Viking fans... yikes

I did. 110 calories each. I eat 1.

 

Impressive! I do Chips Ahoy one at a time, but I count by sleeves.

Lock to the Broncos at 20?

Oakland at 24 scares me.

Snyder will undoubtedly insist that Haskins start immediately while Doug Williams and Gruden will probably want to break him in a bit behind McCoy and/or Keenum.  Snyder always likes to play with his new toys.  It will likely remain interesting in the House of Danny.

After picking up Keenum, I don't think so, unless he blows them away in Camp and Keenum looks horrible....

Ok, there's 2 and all these teams are just passing up these Grade A receivers.

 

Funny, as I recall, dominant receivers go early in drafts.

Or nobody had a high 1st on him because his tape doesn't justify it?

I'll remind you of that if the offense flounders.

 

 

If the offense flounders the only way you’re correct is if all of our receivers forget how to catch and the only reason we’re bad is a historically high drop rate.

 

Otherwise, again, it’s silly to think our success is dependent on drafting a specific skill group.

The guy knows 3 routes and runs fast in a straight line...

 

In the last 25 years, DK ran the 3 cone drill in the bottom 3%! He will continue to drop IMO

[Turk71]

Oliver and Phillips rushing the passer together on third down with Hughes and Zo on the outsides will be devastating. Oliver was top 3 rated against the run anod as a pass rusher last year.

The good part is the Giants can pick another QB next year too with a top 5 pick so they have options.

This was a class without a true #1 WR. I have said it all along.

Noah Fant seems obvious here.
