Players it's often wise to avoid in the draft...

- Michigan runningbacks

- Florida quarterbacks

- USC wide receivers

If we'd only have been smart enough to take Steve Smith (Giants).

But I hear those small guys can't play.

It's sad, even Patrick Turner 3rd rounder selected this year by the Dolphins has 7 catches already.

From what I hear, they were set to do it but the equipment manager and the stat guys nixed the idea.

(too confusing)

And come on. What have small receivers named Steve Smith ever really accomplished anyway? :sosp:

you guys really think regardless of who was drafted they would get any attention in our offense? with a healthy Steve and Moose on the field?

But Keary Colbert, Mike Williams and Jarrett are strong cases for your statement.

Maybe it's Carolina where wide receivers (Except Smitty) go to die, not Chicago.

Mike Thomas looked interesting today too. They didn't really showcase his receiving skills, but he moves and is built a lot like Smitty.

The jags also got my favorite reciever in the draft Jarrett Dillard. He was supposed to get significant playing time today but he didn't even get on the field. I still have faith in him as he had the best hands in the draft and has insane body control.

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.
