Joe Person: Dave Tepper tipped Panthers next pick

[LinvilleGorge]

I really hope we don't make the Cam mistake again. "Oh, this guy is so good he doesn't need any help so we can spend all our resources on defense now!"

Seahawks did too with Wilson.

I feel like Person is just flipping a coin to see if he will look smart or not lol 

[CamWhoaaCam]

We are going to find out real quick if they think these skill players are enough to win.

 

We have 2 #2 WR's and a average TE in Hurst. Im sorry but this offense still needs another legit weapon.

 

Deandre Hopkins from SC just sayin...

I love Mayer's game!  In three years at Notre Dame he never once turned the ball over, either, despite 180 receptions.

Im glad your still here @Buckeye Homer, sorry it didn't work out for CJ, I wanted him or bryce so I'm content. I think CJ is going to a good spot though, great coach.

Given how the draft has gone tonight, I really think Mayer is a legit option for our second round pick. He gives me Greg Olsen vibes! If you are picked in 2nd round, you are expected to compete for starting spot immediately, there are no further 1st round Wrs but Mayer is 1st round talent. Pick him at #39! 

[Hoenheim]

Mayer will be long gone by 39 you are kidding yourself. BJ too most likely.

I think the pick will be a CB

if he gets past the lions there's a real chance.

I mean we signed two WRs a TE and a RB. The reality is we have bigger needs on defense right now. We are changing our scheme and could use CB, LBs and a 3-4 DE. 
 

On offense, OG is the biggest need now and it’s not really a huge one. We don’t have a star WR but there isn’t one in the draft and we have a solid group heading into the season. TE is possible but I think defense is where we would be better off going in general

We have bandaids, I'm not sure we have any long-term solutions. Thielen is 32 and is on the decline. Chark is talented but is usually injured. TMJ will hopefully develop. On paper, this is definitely a bottom 10 NFL WR corps. Hurst is a former 1st round bust who is knocking on the door of 30. Three teams in five years basically putting up good backup caliber stats. I honestly think we significantly overpaid him.

Fug that mentality.   

We need to grow Bryce with the best  weapons we can get him.  We got an assemble of guys who aren’t likely to be long term fixtures and/or just solid. 

It’s an offensive league.  Burrow, Mahomes, etc grew with the best 1-2 weapons arguably in the NFL.   Weapons matter.  And look at a Trevor or Tua last year.  Change the weapons and it changes the QB.  And they still not giving Trevor what he needs to really grow and go. 

but yeah, I’ve felt they would go D. They should snag a speedster WR or equip us to go heavy 2 TE.
