You say he's trash but...what has he done that's made he trash? He was a solid 4th-5th string WR. If it's not Bersin, we're going to sign some other No Name WR to be jsut that. A Solid 4th-5th string WR. Why not just bring back one of your own guys to do that? You also neglected to answer my question which shows you just want to bitch and moan for the sake of bitching and moaning. You want instant results and when they don't happen you're goign to cry about how our GM is sabotaging the team.

I've said this bdeore in another thread but uh - Your franchise QB was playing hurt most of the season. - Your oline din't have any real set pieces and gelled until the last 5 weeks. Same for your DBs. - One of your starting pass rushers was playing hurt most of the season, the other was suspended for all but one game - Your starting HB was hurt and didn't get healthy until late, and even before that he was running behind aforementioned terrible O-line. We have weaknesses, yes, and we're going to adress them. You seem to think that Gettleman is ignoring them for funsies because he's not breaking the bank on these top flight WRs and is waiting for the market to cool down a bit...you know...like Most GMs Do.

Probably yeah. He can block, run routes and he's made tough catches, not to mention he can help onspecial teams. Not to mention he's improved a lot both years he's shown up to training camp. There's no reason to think he can't get better. He's easily better than some other players with had here that the Huddle loved. Namely Seryi Aroujitutu and Legatron. People loved those signings and they're complete trash. You do know that teams are made out of more than just superstars right? You need role players. But here's my question for you: Why would you not sign a player to at least be a camp body if he's shown promise each of his two years there, knows the system, and produced okay when called upon?

Also i didn't know all the FA WRs were gone. Last I checked players like Cecil Shorts, Hakeem Nicks, Kenny Britt, and Denarius Moore (lol this guy is trash but you guys think he'll be a #2) are still all available. But I'm sure Dave's not trying poo.

Yeah why would they bring back a 4th-5th string WR who knows the system and made some clutch catches for us last year Dave Obviously Knows Nothing

please tell me other 5-6th string WRs and why they are so elite and yet you guys find Every Reason to bitch and moan about Bersin and Boykin

What do you mean not tying up our cap in one or two big name palyers won't help us win the super bowl I mean look at the Bucs

Time for the defense of the ages!!!

"You can't coach 6-5, 240." - Dave Gettleman So let's start with the elephant in the room; DGB's character. He's had multiple run-ins and issues since leaving high school, such as Possession of Weed (2012, 2014) and breaking into his ex-girlfriends house, and although he wasn't arrested. Led to his dismissal from Mizzou. It's easy to see why we would dismiss as someone we'd never draft, especially with Gettleman's equally quotable "Who wants a ticking time bomb?" line, but if you look at what Gettleman likes, and our team needs, and how the league seems to be trending towards bigger, athletic WRs, Green-Beckham at 25 seems increasingly likely. OU's proday just passed, and DGB put on a show. Measuring it at 6'5 and weighing in at 237, he's not too far off from last years pick, Kelvin Benjamin in terms of measurables, but that's where the comparisons end. . Green-Beckham is a natural fluid athlete at WR. Soft hands, good strength, attacks the ball and can catch anything in a certain radius of him.He's also quite speedy and agile for a WR his size, and has ability to be a down-field threat and the ability to get YAC. He was born to be a Wide Receiver, and he has all the tools and skills to be an Elite #1. As I mentioned earlier, bigger bodied, physical WRs are the trend now. Ever since Jeffery/Marshall dominaited the leauge a couple of years back, teams have looked to mimic that (Example: The Bucs), much akin to how a lot of teams tried to copy the two TE sets that NE ran and was unstoppable for a while. Kelvin and Dorial would compliment each other nicely, both towering over most DBs and the ability to make strong, possessive catches that would frustrate OCs. Toss in the fact we have a third reliable big body target in Olsen. Can you imagine three 6'5 receivers? Now there's still a few things to touch on. DGB is no doubt trending up. Will he even be there or will some team chance him before 25? How has he interviews with teams and has he really changed? Or is he still a "Ticking time bomb." You look at a player who was in a much similar situation to DGB in Dez Bryant. Who was suspended for most of the OSU Cowboy's season, blasted with character concerns, and fell all the way to 24, despite having top 5 talent. And needless to say it's worked out for the Cowboys since then, with some minor backfires involving Bryant's attitude, but, despite being very much a risk, he's turned out to be one of the best WRs in the nfl. On the other side of the coin, there's players like Josh Gordon and Justin Blackmon, and despite Blackmon not being as obvious as a time bomb as Gordon, both of them have hurt their teams more than helped them with constant suspensions and substance abuse, despite having the talent to be elite WRs. Blackmon was a top 5 pick, and Gordon cost the Browns a 2nd rounder in the supplemental draft. The above one is more concerning for DGB than one would expect. As mentioned, he was arrested for possession of Marijuana twice. And both times it was a large amount. I don't want to low this out of proportion, especially since I have zero problem with recreational weed use, but some players don't know control. What happens if he gets paid and he goes down the Gordon/Blackmon route? But it comes down to talent, and maturity. Prrsonally, I think a lot of his "concerns" are immature, childish mistakes, and he'll grow from them. And as the for the former, DGB has that in spades.

Cam was hurt 80% of the season. We didn't have a consistent o-line that built chemistry til late in the season. Our #2 corner back at the end of the season missed 8 games. Our best pass rusher played hurt a lot of the season, and te other pass rusher missed all but 1 game. We didn't start our #1 CB and our FS til last 5 games. But I mean it's okay let's pretend it was just say it's because we didn't sign some player, yeah?

This thread will go places.

The top three free agent WR cost 10-11mil per year to sign. Why do you think we didn't go after them. Go ahead, I'll wait.

No God no. He's old slow and hurt. He's never been a god WR I've always called him a slightly better LaFell but now even LaFell is better than him. He wouldn't upgrae our offense in anyway. We need a speed WR to compliment Benji.

Alice is literally crying into his pillow made out of twinkles right now the dyansty is over.

Harry Douglas has always been mediocre and and hes going to be 31 this season. he was there before Julio. Theres a reason they drafted Julio.

i'm starting to think you don't know how football works outside of madden

He's a guy I've been hyping up the past few days to myself, almost made a thread on him. He's an okay 3-4 ol who's been solid against the run and Good as a pass rusher, but he's an excellent 4-3 DE who would fill the Hardy void. Color me hype.

with the TE class being kind of Lackluster this year (Though i do like Pharaoh Brown in the 5th-6th) and the FAs being lackluster after anyone who's not the top two or three FAs, I don't mind bringing Dickson back for a two year deal.

holy poo one of our beat writers almost kind of broke news

Kelvin's only going to get better. He'll increase his concentration and he'll be dominant. That being said, let's get him some help.

So uh Where have you heard the Vikings have given up on a third year WR resonable rookie contract? And ha they'd only ask for a 4h Because lmao

i'll take branch and Massaquoi Mass has all the talent in the world just has a serious attitude problem. I'd love to see what Rivera could do with him. Plus if he he pans out could you imagine the salt of the Falcons fans?

lmao a lot of ya'll are like that jealous ex that's mad their ex doesn't want to get back with them after they got out of a breakup. how dare he want to play for anyone other than us for any reason

Super. Can't wait for another domestic abuse thread and all the wonderful responses.

Mmm yeah I'm sure Julio'll give you guys a hometown discount. That'll bode well with what you guys have tied up in Matty Melted Ice
