At this point, I'm honestly not even sure that we actually take the ability to catch a football into consideration when evaluating WRs.

Did you actually watch an Ohio State game this year.  By your comments, I would say no.

I swear some people are just blind homers. And this crazy world will just keep on spinning.

Hope the kid is great, but definitely not a fan of the pick.

Brutal honesty, the track record of the huddle being pissed about a pick has not been kind. We don't exactly have a bunch of draft gurus here. This is the same board that predominantly wanted nothing to do with Cam and Luke at the time of the picks.

Just let him prove himself.

    • ESPN’s recent grades has Charlotte with a B. I haven’t paid attention to any others really. 
    • It’s simple. Win and everyone in here will say the culture is good. Dear lord the amount of time spent on these posts is hysterical. We’ve seen the end of season swoons where you can tell the team had given up with many of the same leaders that took us to playoff seasons. When your OL is decimated by injuries, it’s amazing how fast culture turns. When you get on a tear like 2015, everyone’s having fun. You need the right people regardless, but they have to win.
    • The difference is about how much player input is allowed and encouraged in the decision making process. Top down teams tend to dictate to players how everything is handled. Disagreements are handled by the coach and players are expected to do what they are told regardless of what they think or feel.  Players are perceived as commodities to be used until we find better. In player led teams player input is encouraged and valued. Players and especially leaders are expected to settle their own disagreements and be accountable to the team but mostly to each other. Players are family to be appreciated and supported in their growth. Is the reality of football the same in both? Yeah there are limited positions, football is a business and winning is the bottom line. Coaches get final say and run the program because that is their job. But in player led teams they feel valued, appreciated, part of a larger whole. Most people who have worked at multiple jobs know exactly what I am talking about. When players try to run the show and don't value  coach input that isn't a player led team, that is a circus which we surely are familiar with in our past.
