They also got competent play from Levi Wallace a UDFA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegula appears content to sit smiling in the draft room and talk to all the prospects on the phone like his own personal make-a-wish day once a year. There's no sense of any accountability at any level of the organization which is why the GM and coach feel comfortable taking "their guys" instead of shooting for the stars (literally). They're both coasting off of one pick they made six years ago. It’s not like the Beane front office hasn’t made any good draft picks since 2018? You have a reasonable case as a fan to feel like the front office didn’t do enough at WR. I am still concerned about it but they have free agent and possibly trade options once Tre’s money hits. But you really don’t have a case that the front office hasn’t been one of the best front offices in the league since 2017. The past two drafts in 2022 and 2023 are looking like really good drafts. 2022 is looking like it has produced 4 starters in Benford, Bernard, Cook and Shakir (and Elam could still pan out) and 2023 produced 2 plug and play starters in Kincaid and Torrence while adding a nice depth piece in Dorian Williams and Shorter could end up being a role player. Even the “weaker” drafts from 2019-2021 all still produced multiple starters and some serviceable role players. That’s in addition to solid roster moves in free agency and trades. Heck this past season they made two critical in season acquisitions in Douglas and Joseph that helped the defense a lot. You can be upset but man these hyperbolic takes are just awful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't see many 5s pushing people way up the board in the first two rounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
