Garrett > Funchess?

Garrett has the speed, height and athleticism to be a good receiver in the NFL.  I like what I am hearing about his desire and the chip on his shoulder which is shared by many folks on this team.  I hope he makes the squad and is a good player for us.  Then again I liked Taye Biddle quite a bit some years ago so what do I know......

Keep in mind Funchess is like 2 years younger than Garrett when comparing.

I feel like this gets glossed over a lot, Funchess will be 22 this month. KB and Garrett were already 23 when they entered the draft. 

Funchess is only 6 weeks older than Corey Coleman, and is younger than 23 of the 33 receivers drafted this year. Of the 9 WR taken in the first three rounds; only Coleman, Treadwell, and maybe Boyd (sites disagree on his birth year) are younger than him. That top 9 includes a few more 23 year olds as well: Doctson, Thomas, and Miller. 

Lots of room to grow for Devin.

    • I think you have to factor in that we're still not an attractive proposition for Head Coaches. You're not getting the cream of the crop if you fire Canales a year after winning the NFC South, especially considering the situation he walked into.
    • Yeah, I was about to say I hope he's doing okay health-wise because he's not looking good in that pic.
    • Honestly, I dont  think he should be on the hot seat yet. A bad start to next year, then yes. Despite our mistakes on play calling this past season, we played better than anticipated overall. Bryce showed improvement and maturity (although still not nowhere close to our expectations). Better record and 2-15 to 5-12 to 8-9. Despite what we feel the stats dont lie we are improving by 3 wins a year. Could 11-6 be our expectation. That's a high bar but at the rate we are going, thats what its looking like. We all want to see a 5-12 to a 13-4 record but we are methodically moving up. Success doesnt happen overnight (well in most cases).  IMO we are struggling mostly on the defensive end. LB and edge are our biggest weakness. I see Bryce making improvements (even though I was a Bryce hater) next year. Biggest concern is LT on offense. How to fix this? We need a big name edge or to trade up and get a big name edge or LB and pick up one in FA and draft one. Also if in the 3rd we can pick up a TE. Dont know if Sanders is the answer or Tremble (even though I love Trembles blocking and power after the catch). If these two can get their footwork together they would be great. Maybe all they need is a better TE coach. And if Brooks can stay healthy and be the back we thought he could be, man that would be great
