Of these two very possible picks at #28, who would you go with?  State your case.

 

Frame it as a WR vs OT or BPA debate if you wish, and feel free to throw in other names.

 

(Cyrus Kouandjio, Joel Bitonio and Ryan Shazier are options)

Cyrus if avail...out of those two Robinson...I hate Moses...he has a cool name and beard, but if Cam Erving and Cedric Obeguhi came out then he would have been talked about as an option at 60...you don't want that with your 1st round pick boys I'm telling you.

I love Allen Robinson and have spammed this board with my thoughts on him enough.

If Cyrus is an option then he's my pick.

 

I like Robinson too but my preference for OL is well known.  I'd also be fine with Cyrus if his knee checks out.

 

This year's choice is a huge quandary for me.

Assuming the knee isn't an issue...I don't know his anyone could prefer Moses over Kouandjio

Moses simply due to the receivers left for later rounds.

 

That's a line of thinking I can agree with.

 

If the receiver position is deeper, then you take the OL early because the dropoff will be greater at that spot than at WR.

Except the knee is an issue, at the very least in that it inspires doubt.

 

Even the tiniest doubt can make a big difference in the Draft.

I think we are going to go WR and Robinson is who we are leaning towards assuming no one falls out of the top 20.  It isn't that I don't want an O line because I do but if the top talent is off the board then the guys like Moses or Cyrus have concerns to the point that they might not be a big improvement over who we could get at 60.  The same could be said about wide receiver but I think getting a big guy who can run the whole route tree is very rare in wide receivers and it means he could come in day 1 and contribute.  I am afraid that no linemen can come in and do the same.  Sure we could put someone there but in the past putting rookies ito the starting O lineup have not paid off very well.

Picking Moses to me falls into that if you "reach you get screwed" mentality. I see many people justifying taking him as they think we can just pick up a receiver in the 2nd. That would be 2 examples of locking into a certain position just to fill a need and I disagree with it.

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
