Ok, who is he going to throw to?  Thomas?  Sullivan?  Tremble?  Shi Smith?  TMJ?  The cupbord is bare my friend.  Sometimes the sexy pick isn't the BEST pick.

Since the Steelers have locked down Moore after the second quarter, Darnold has had nobody to throw to.

Beef up OL and your fears are addressed.TE isnt the answer or the problem.

Circa 2021 OL?  Dude, this is the best OL we've had in yeeaaarrrs. Not exactly sure about needing to beef it up more.  Our TE room is down right atrocious, so yes, it is a problem.  Getting a stud TE isn't the answer, but it's a crucial position that's sorely needs addressing.

Would have liked better RT play this year, let's hope motown is healthy and back to form next year. 

Our TE play is feeble. But 1st round TE. Oof I'm a Pitts fan and even he wasn't worth a 1st so far. Yeah terrible situation and all but man who's out there that's that big a matchup threat at TE this year? We must upgrade the spot, but I don't really think 1st is the value spot.

Now grab the best WR, I'd listen. Moore, TMJ and one of Addison/Johnston/Hyatt as the starting 3. That's baller. Johnston to me is the biggest Q as he looks to be able to do it all outside guy like Julio Jones but the production dones match the freak athlete he is. Hyatt is a burner of a #1/2 but raw as hell compared to the other 2 with 1 year of production. Addison is smooth #1 with big time production as a frosh and following 2 years but not the big outside guy. 

I'm in on minshew or Sam whomever wants a mid/low $ for backup or 30th starter level between them.  They are not the same guys at all, but build around the one you sign. Now if Richardson is somehow in play in the draft, all bets off in the 1st and go big.

Don't forget Mims in the second or third round.

I like Mims a lot too. If you flip and go WR 2nd or 3rd he is another I'm high on. Don't think he has size, speed, length to make it into that top group in the mid 1st. He's been nothing but productive for what 3 years now?

Yep. He's produced all three years. Mim's is on the smaller size, 5'11" 185lbs or so, and not super fast. That said, production trumps measurables in my mind.

I think Mims is probably a 3rd rounder. He's a slot only type and those guys pretty much max out I'm the 2nd and that's for a top tier slot guy. It's why I don't understand the possible 1st round talk for Josh Downs. I think he's a fantastic NFL slot prospect but I think he's likely a mid to late 2nd rounder because he's slot only.

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
