Charlie Weis:"Golden Tate is a Steve Smith (carolina panthers) clone"

I think tate is bigger...but could you imagine two of them

He reminds me of (Carolina Panthers receiver) Steve Smith. I know Steve Smith well, I'ma big fan of Steve Smith: a little trash-talker…just like Golden. ... "Golden Tate is a Steve Smith (carolina panthers) clone. " both trash talkers, similar size...the sky is the limit for golden

From one of Weis press conference.

if we could end up with golden tate we would be unstopble.Smitty & Tate lineing up opp of each other plus williams & stewart we would give defense cords fits cause they wont be able to stop both.

Don't we need a QB also? until that changes, it doesn't matter what receivers are brought in.

like I keep saying Jake is not the problem.its the retarded play calling of jeff davidson.

Sorry have to disagree. Steve Smith has made a average at best QB look good for years. If he had someone opposite him that was as good (Tate definitely has the potential) or even close to as good as himself, we would have one of the top O's in the league. But yes definitely need a QB I don't even know if have two Smiths could make Jake look better then mediocre.

Yes..but so much depends on who is running the show.

If fox is still here then.I think we will sign a vet QB(jason campbell)..Draft a WR in the 2nd..sign a vet WR.then take a QB in the 3rd or 4th..

But if a new coach is here then...IDK.lol

There will never be another Steve Smith like the one we have...ever. Although if we happen to draft golden tate i would hope he does just as good haha. you guys know what i mean when i say there will never be another 'Steve Smith'. No one will be quite like him.

There will be. When I was growing up my dad always told me there'd never be another <insert record breaking player here>, or this/that certain record would never be broken. Those records were broken (hi, Hammerin' Hank!), and there are indeed other Joe Montanas and Jerry Rices and Barry Sanders.

Trust me, one day we'll have an amazing wide receiver here who talks smack, and is fiesty, and lacks something most other WRs have (in Smith's case, height).

Does Davidson throw the ball too? You are drunk with Jake love. Jake Can not, I repeat CAN NOT throw the deep ball worth a poo anymore. Until a QB can stretch the field from time to time, The receivers won't matter. We are lucky to have a running game to make Jake look like a mediocre QB. But if he was just average we would be tearing it up right now. If Jake was the Jake from the Superbowl year or even the Jake from the first 2.5 games the year he got hurt. We would be dominating the league right now. I agree Davidson's play calling sucks most of the time, but it is not JUST his fault!

We had that WR on our roster allready and we cut him. It was D. Carter, all he lacked that is something most other WR's have was hands.

We cut Drew Carter cause he could not catch those long balls.

    • He’s kind of overrated to be honest. Never really felt like a true #1 or elevated his play to become a guy the defense really has to worry about. 
    • I'm going to be real, the reason that vote ended up so lop-sided by the end was directly due to my programming. So there's nothing tongue in cheek about it. Also I left PFF after the Collinsworth acquisition (didn't want to move to Cincy) but have stayed involved in analytics via backdoor channels, but I can absolutely say that the experience was eye-opening, not because those guys are unquestionable football savants and that I became one by proxy, but because the amount of information that becomes available outside of what the typical fan has access to is revelatory and also really drives home how much context is still being missed even with all of that information. You don't discover that you know everything, you discover how much you still can't know no matter how hard you try, hence my point about the NFL not being able to figure out what makes a QB good. There's a lot of AI work going into that now and even that only seems to further confuse things vs. actually enlighten the problem. In the professional realm teams don't really talk about quarterbacks as A strictly being better than B, but how A can potentially perform better than B given a specific context of C. Of course those contexts may be wider for A than B, but there's also contexts where B can outshine A, even with lesser talent surrounding them. So what good teams strive to do is ultimately define a process of how they want their entire team to operate under schematically, find players that fit that scheme, and hopefully find a guy whose skillset will be maximized running that scheme with those players. Where bad teams fall of the wagon is constantly shifting those schemes and chasing bad fits or fads vs. sticking with a core identity and developing it.
