DeVante Parker scheduled to visit Panthers

Nice. Met with him at his Pro Day as well. Zero to slim chance he is there at 25. Maybe a target in the rumored 16-20 range if he slips which I doubt as well.

If I had to make an educated guess, it's pretty safe to assume that atleast 24 players won't be avaliable when we pick at 25.

I know this is a deep WR class, but IMO Cooper, White, Parker, and Strong are the clear cream of the crop.  After you get past those four, everyone has serious concerns.  Hands, level of competition, whatever. I'd feel very comfortable with either Parker or Strong in the 1st.

With the two 5th round compensatory picks in pocket, I could see us potentially trading up a few spots if the right guy begins to slip.  Compensatory picks can't be traded, but it can make you feel a little more comfortable with parting with other picks.

 

Not sure about trading up into the 16-20 range though.  That would get rather costly.  It would probably take our 1st and 2nd round picks to get up to 16.  1st and 3rd could potentially get us up to 20.  1st and 4th could potentially bump us up a couple of spots if need be to secure the guy we really want.

I could see us trading up to 22 to get ahead of the Lions if there is an OT Gettleman really likes. They have a pretty big need there and the Steelers are usually amenable to trading down. Our 1st and 4th is probably close to enough in value to make the deal, maybe toss in the 6th or 7th if he has to.

 

Cleveland had to give up a 1st and 3rd to get from 26 to 22 last year though so that could potentially stall a deal.

Damn, I forgot the Browns actually traded up to get Manziel.  They did the same thing with Brady Quinn back in '07.  It's safe to say that if the Browns trade into the #22 overall spot, they're gonna take a QB and he's gonna be a bust.  Brett Hundley, where you at?  LOL!

    • How do you expect him to step up in the pocket when Ickey is being pushed to the spot you want him to be. Stills don’t tell the entire picture.
    • They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
    • What does it matter how fast the wrs are with Bryce he is not hitting them anyway
