thats every college player..Raw talent and potential.Just need to coach them up.

true, but there are players that are more potential/raw talent and others that are more refined. drew carter for instance, had great speed and potential, but his ball catching skills were suspect. then you have players that come out and surprise people with their immediate impact, such as the rookie receiver last year for Denver, desean jackson, and the eagle's rookie this year. true they are generally higher picks, but that is the kind of impact we need at receiver next year. someone who is more refined ability than raw potential.

Excuse me, but who you propose we draft? If you dont know, we dont have a first rounder. So all that Benn crap goes out the window. Chance this kid might fall to us in the 2nd round. You got it confused kid. If Thomas have a good combine, its a good chance somebody might get him before us. He's also a great blocker cause of his size

Arrelious Benn is not a sure-fire 1st round pick yet.. we very well could get him in the 2nd round. Thomas has great measurables.. I haven't looked at his route running or hands yet.. I would guess his route running is poor though.

    • I mean, you're acting like we don't see the tippy-toe bunny hops, jump throws more than normal (with both feet dangling in the air every which a way), and off-platform but off-balance throws that arrive lshort or sail high. Could that be bad mechanics due to being short? Could a seeming propensity to bail the pocket towards the sidelines early as opposed to sitting in the pocket tall and strong, surveying his reads be an attempt at trying to see an open throwing lane? I'm not saying that what you're saying isn't a contributing factor to what has been an underwhelming display of executing the QB position, but this is year three, and if the lightbulb hasn't switched on by now---if you haven't figured out that guys are faster, stronger and generally more athletic, then what's it going to take? It's hard to forget that "mental processing" was supposed to be Bryce Young's superpower. Are you telling me that he can't nail down such an easy concept as, "I can't get away with the things I did in college at the pro level," is that right? If he can't get past that, then that surely limits his ability to successfully execute all the other stuff.  Look, I'm not trying to be flippant. I acknowledge that playing pro football is more complex than a lot of fans realize, but all we can do, as fans, is observe. One of my favorite things to do is just look at the greater picture and think what part human nature is playing in the many decisions that are being made or have to be made. You're absolutely correct that fans don't know exactly what's going on, but that is by design, and in many ways it's just the nature of the beast. Some things we can't know. That being said, the professionals screw the hell up all the time. The professionals disagree all the time. These disagreements can be within the same franchise or from franchise to franchise. And sometimes these decisions are all over the place, so excuse me if I ain't exactly buying the I-know-more-than-thee sentiment and that that means that professionals always make better decisions than fans would about certain players. Some of this stuff is simply luck or a crapshoot.
    • Then please take a vacation from the team.
    • In addition to his weak arm he has to compensate in the pocket by throwing off his toes due to his height. Respectfully, its a handicap.
