WR or OT

I want a WR with my heart, but my head says BPA.  I won't get mad at picking an OT or even a safety, but I believe that they have a much higher probability to bust, and that's something I don't think that we can risk.  It's all going to depend on the player.  G-man has to get it right, and I trust that he will.

That's what was said last year, and now look where we are.

 

Truth be told, what offensive lineman that were available when we drafted have shown Gettleman to be foolish? All the OL worth a 1st or 2nd were gone by the time we picked. 

 

I would rather have Benjamin over Joel Bitonio. Morgan Moses is trash. Can't remember anyone else.

Something interesting to note (It's only two years so not necessarily a trend) but the obvious pick for us come December ended up being our pick after all of the pre-draft process and build-up.  

 

I remember how bad people wanted Star initially, then thought he would go too high...then KB after the ACCC and Nation Title game.  Then the whole build-up happened...people were talking about countless prospects who were rising and falling...then we ended up coming full circle.

    • So we cut him if we don't give him the option?  I'm pretty sure there are players who didn't get the 5th-year option that played year four of their rookie contracts with their draft team.
    • I didn't say do nothing if we don't draft one in the 1st and I"m not counting on a FA to magically become a franchise QB. But signing a FA to be our starter for the year and then re-address the next offseason would be FAR better than reaching on the wrong QB in the 1st this offseason. Feeling we HAVE to find our long term solution just because we need a new QB is how we got into this mess.  We thought Two Gloves would be at worst an average level QB for a few years, that didn't happen, so we went out and traded for Darnold.  That didn't work so we went out and traded for Baker, that didn't work so we went out and traded up to get Bryce. Our last 4 QB moves were all trying to force a solution, none of them worked out, and we're still trying to find Cam's replacement all these years later.  We'd just have been better off spending a year or two building up the rest of the team and going year to year on FA QB's while doing so.  I get it, it will be frustrating to deal with, but then when you find that actual long term solution, they plug right into an already built out roster and you're ready to contend immediately.
    • Great win, should be 3-0 but I'll take 2-1. LaMelo is an MVP caliber player, period.   This is looking like an incredible draft so far. Sion James looking like the exact type of role player that all contending teams need to have, absolute steal in the 2nd. Kalk is a work in progress and I question how much upside he has but he's already been a considerable upgrade at C for us compared to the last several years (outside of healthy Mark which of course was rare).   Really seems like new ownership/front office has change the culture here significantly. Every guy looks bought in now.
