It's not surprising. I think going into the season if you were objectively looking at the NFL you would've circled the NFC South as having both the worst QB situation and the worst overall offensive situation.

I mean, if you had an open NFL draft, how many NFC South offensive players would be drafted in say the top 100 picks?

Olave, Theilen (because hes a reception machine), Evans,  Pitts, London, BRob and maybe Godwin.

Ain't no way a 33 year old WR gets drafted among the top 100 picks in an open draft.

All depends on your goals I guess. How many teams would be thrilled to have a possession receiver that constantly finds a way to get open as a WR2? That's not easy to find anywhere in the NFL except for a few teams. If he played another 2-3 years, that's about what you'd get out of a WR from the 3rd round average anyway.

Our D has been an absolute disaster. As bad as the O has been, D has been the biggest issue by far. Our O is 10th worst in the league, bad for sure but nowhere near as bad as the Giants, Patriots... Meanwhile our D is 2nd worst, only better than Denver... I know we've had injuries but man Evero has been really disappointing for how hyped he was in the offseason and all the HC interviews he got

I'm talking about an open draft of current NFL players if you just took everyone and threw them in the pot and started the league over with an open draft.

There's no way in hell Adam Thielen gets taken in the top 100 picks. Zero chance. Hell, there would probably only be about 10 WRs taken total in the top 100 picks because teams are gonna be taking a lot of QBs, OTs, pass rushers, and CBs too. You're talking the elite to very good #1 WRs.

It's too damn early and I haven't had my coffee yet. I was thinking of just offensive players. Yeah you're right about 100 overall

NFC South is gonna be the pit of mediocrity combined with the stench of sucking for a while. 
Losing Brees, Ryan, Cam and whoever the Bucs had at the time turned this division into the division of meh. 
Falcons have no QB, they would be good if they did. 
Saints are just the Raiders now. 
Bucs are, honestly I don’t know, with a good QB they’d probably be ahead of everyone. 
Panthers are just how you don’t build a football team.

      I've just seen enough highly touted prospects who pretty much everyone was high on end up busting to assume anything.

      Maybe, but a player can also bust for a lot of reasons.  And I'm not about to go look up the stats of all the 1st round WR busts, but I'd be surprised if they had the sustained output and success in college that T-Mac had.  Those early WR busts are usually guys who had one breakout season and then were highly drafted because of physical potential, not already built out ability. I'm not even saying T-Mac is 100% going to have a better career than Chark (although I obviously think he will). I'm just saying that right now, his skill level and ability is better than Chark's ever was, and I don't understand how anyone is arguing against that, not because of T-Mac, but because of who Chark himself was.   If you want to take the argument that you can't say ANY player who hasn't played a down yet can't be considered better than someone who has, then so be it (even though I'd say that's a dumb stance anyways). At his peak ability, Chark was more like a #3 WR than anything else, he was the definition of a league average WR.  If you don't think a Top 10 selected WR with his tape is better than that just because they haven't played in the NFL yet, then you're just stuck on the "he hasn't played a down yet" idea and can't evaluate them as players and abilities.

      And you would've probably said the same thing about a lot of highly drafted WRs who busted.
