I dont know how many time that it has to be said. There is no way that DGB was on our board. Just no way.

But yeah, we'd probably have picked Humphries in the first had both been available

 

Kind of like theirs was no way we were trading up?

gettleman Said in his presser that their guys Was Being tanken fast and it Was time to make a move.

Do you Think he would go out and say 'looking at the way the board fell, the organisation decided to change it views on domestic violence.' After picking DGB?

Gman was likely working the phones well before the DGB pick. Even if he wasn't, it's probably all a big coincidence. It had nothing to do with DGB, and everything to so with grabbing Funchess.

Gman's hands were tied by Jerry Richardson on DGB.

Kind of like they said this draft would be about speed...

We have 5 picks left.

We've added Ginn, first and foremost. That being said, we worked out Jamison Crowder and Marquez Clark, with 4.4 speed, maybe even 4.3 with the latter. Stephon Diggs has 4.4 speed, as well as The McBride who ran two 4.41s at the Combine.

There is still some legit speed out there, some with special teams ability to boot.

They never said the draft was about speed, that was the offseason and getting Ginn added speed. Added speed to ST as well.

Funchess isn't slow, he has a deceptive speed and didn't run well in Indy. He plays fast and that's what matters.

    • 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.
