Yeah TMac has a third of his yards and 4 out of 5 of his TDs in one game against UNM. He went 6 games in a row (half a season) without getting a score... If you are the top WR you have to show up against top competition, yeah I know it's his offense, but he had the same QB last year. Looks like Utah and Colorado shut him down. NAU was a horrible game, but I'd have to assume he didn't play that whole game going 2 for 11 yards. Hunter has 5 of his 8 games with over 100 yards receiving (while playing defense) and 8 TDs to TMac's 5. If I had to pick one to pick with pick 1 it's probably Hunter. I'm not hating on TMac either, he is a top of the draft 1st rounder too. He just isn't pick 1 material and might not be WR1. I also really doubt he would go before Nabers, but that is just a difference of opinion. Also if we aren't getting a QB with pick 1 we are probably going defense...

TMac is good, but he isn't pick 1 on a WR good. Last year he would be below Nabers and Williams. This year you could argue Hunter is the better WR. WR at 1 better be a Calvin Johnson not a WR that disappears some games in college...

Damn is the line still 7 points???

I’m with @Bear Hands on this. Allar will take his NIL money and stay another year to improve his draft stock.

We missed on Stroud. It sucks, but we can’t pretend like he isn’t one of the better young QBs in this league. If we had him we would be in much better shape. What are they 6-3 with injuries to the OL, Nico, and Diggs? I’d take that in a minute.

So you are just going by what these analysts are saying. So if come draft time they say Ward/Sanders is worth pick 1 you should be good. The future draft QB class is always going to be projected as the next great thing until these young players start playing the game and scouts can see some flaws. Think of all of the high school phenoms that didn’t look as good in college. If Manning does turn out to be the next great prospect only one team gets to draft him. Odds are someone else could get the top pick, especially if go all in on building a supporting roster. I’m never going to be a just wait another year guy, because there are so many variables. If our staff loves Ward/Sanders then we should just draft them with our pick. It’s as simple as that. I also might go with Hunter over TMac as WR1 in this class. The roster has the OL to help a young QB, young weapons in Coker, XL, and JT to grow with a QB, and a RB who can catch in Brooks as a safety net for a young QB. Sign a vet WR, extend BC and our offense would be set outside of depth. Let our young offensive core go through their growing pains while we iron out the defense. It’s definitely a path forward.

Who is in this loaded 26 class? Nico has been struggling? Manning was promising but can’t kept Ewers on the bench like Caleb did to Rattler. Who am I missing?

It was the "I can't play every position on the field" comment that was a slap to the face of his teammates IMO. That was at the press after a game too.

Stats are stats. You don't deduct yards because of the timing of the stats. Coker was boxing out their CBs and making plays.

Yeah but if he doesn't get his touches in a contract year he may get pissed.

If we stay at 1 and go QB then yeah it's between Ward and Sanders at this point. I know he had a bad game but trading down and getting Nuss could be something. Ewers, Allar, or even Milroe in the 2nd could be interesting, especially if we have a vet FA to give them time.

If he can’t make it work with Lamar he won’t have any options left. It’s a contract year so he better make the most of it…

Maybe not Jerry Rice, but Coker can and did.

Plus Nico, his top WR, has been out. Diggs is also injured now.

I think Carr might be playing.

DJax was getting cut either way.

Yeah I was out after hearing about the rape. I want no part of him.

The funny thing is, us holding out DJ in order to trade him helped Coker get more looks and is showing us we might have something in this player.

Yeah I’ll stick with Fields or Z Wilson (he likes moms but it’s consensual) as the vet preferences.

Yeah we wouldn’t have a 1 with hope that XL can develop into 1 eventually. I wouldn’t be against signing Godwin as a vet familiar with DC and yeah he isn’t a 1 too. As long as we have a lot of playmakers I’m good with it.

Oh poo. I missed that? I knew about the crab legs but that was no big deal….

Why??

Pretty sure he has voided years which makes him more pricey than normal to extend. I’d look elsewhere…

Yeah they can get a 6th or 7th but that’s irrelevant to us. We are adding a bunch of players in FA to help this sad roster so we weren’t getting a comp pick.

Yeah I’m just saying mid-tier starters can become quite good with some help. You keep trying to find that upper tier elite guy and it may never happen. If we think Ward can become a good NFL starter at the most important position, one we can’t see to get right, we should take him. I know Goff’s situation was different, just showing how a mid guy can appear top tier.
