Davonte Smith

I know we have many other pressing needs but how do you pass on a talent like this.  

You add him with Moore and our WR Corp is amazingly potent.

I would hate to see him go to Atlanta, TB or New Orleans

No WR corps is potent without an effective QB to throw them the ball.

No QB is effective lying on his back because his Oline sucks.

This is why more pressing needs should be given priority.

QB more pressing than Oline which is more pressing than making an already good WR corps even better.

Furthermore I would fill additional needs on the defensive side of the ball if the talent level was comparable.

Good WR's are a dime a dozen in the NFL. Most of our other needs not so much.

Davonte is great, but there are bigger needs, and there are WR later in the draft.

Now, if Carolina wants to trade up for a QB, Davonte might just be the key. The firepower around Tua is horrible, Miami needs weapons. Tua and Davonte played together at Alabama, he is a perfect type receiver for Tua's strengths. Miami may be willing to trade down and draft Davonte

I'm with you, Dave!  Those giving you poo don't have brass balls! I think he'll be gone though. We'll get a better picture after today's games!

    • I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.
    • Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.
    • What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
