Lance Zierlein of NFL.com has Strong on his list of the 10 safest prospects in the draft:

"I've never been a huge fan of Strong as a first-round talent, but I've always felt like he would a solid second-rounder. NFL general managers and coaches worry less about the round and more about the player they are getting. I haven't found any team that has a negative thing to say about Strong. Sure, there are some who don't see on tape the same speed he showed at theNFL Scouting Combine, but beyond that, every coach and evaluator I've spoken with lauds Strong for his ability to play to his size, go get jump balls and make contested catches -- all important characteristics for long-time starters in the NFL."

Thought so. Have we ever picked someone in the first round they we didn't bring in our visit?

 

Not under Gettleman. As a matter of fact, I think we've visited with all of our Draft picks. I could be wrong on that.

      Give Legette another season?

      By Jackie Lee · Posted

      Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.

      I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......

      Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
