Jarrett smartening up

Right at the moment, my preference would still be to go after Antonio Bryant.

Some are skeptical of that happening, but many a guy has been signed after previously performing well against the team that signed them. it's not a bad audition process.

There are some way in which Jarrett's career has followed a similar path to that of Bryant, though. this, the question would be whether you sign the "finished product" or gamble that the "potential" guy will break out.

Jarretts a failure of the system, just like 34 almost was. I think 34 was backing up some dude from UCLA who loved to fumble the ball, as well as fall down upon first contact. Is the guy 34 was backing up still in the league? My point is this; Fox sticks with people way too long and doesn't give young talent a chance. That being said, it's time for DJ to make the most of this year, he doesn't have Jake at QB which should help a whole lot. Refer to the finale vs. NO.

Come on man! Jake rarely looked off Smith... Im not saying that he never threw to others but Smith was his 1st, 2nd and 3rd read

Well, you can be right on that. But then Smitty is the best WR on the team & some of our other WRs were kinda so-so even Moose at that time. But then when you have the best WR in your team like Smitty, wouldn't you try to throw to him a lot too??

Respect your elders. I'm tired of depending on the practice squad cinderella to step up. Draft someone high or sign the old coot.

holt and moose, wooooo

can't wait to see teams employ a six linebacker formation against our three wide set.

    • Like I said before, I don't get the "only as a UDFA" sentiment, you have to keep following your board. Now if Pavia falls to what amounts to the supplementary UDFA section of the board, that's great, but if he's sitting at the top when you're picking day three (yes, I can't see him being drafted before day three), then you pull the trigger. Rounds 5-7 don't generally provide keepers anyway, you can use them for players that you want to take a closer look at that you may be able to develop.  Pavia may not translate to the pros. Nobody would bet anything of value on it. But, he was highly productive in college due to his play extension abilities, "body torque" mechanics on short and intermediate throws, and good accuracy on said throws. And, he has that dawg in him to be sure.  All that being said, Drew Allar will probably be able to be had on day three, and if it comes down to it--due to nothing but my prejudice against short, weak-armed QBs--I'd pick Allar.
    • Yeah, receivers contracts are crazy, and it's probably not going to change. You almost have to take your swings--keep some picks at WR churning between rounds one through three in order to keep your costs down and give you options at contract time. Creating that value surplus appears to be more important at WR and all the premium positions than getting a non-premium position player who generally are just easier to replace as it pertains to value. The holy grail is to hit on a premium position late, but due to the gradually declining hit rate on days one and two that drops off a cliff day three, you basically have to get lucky. 
    • Very interesting indeed. It did make my head swim more. It said a lot, but it still didn't give any concrete answers. Kinda makes me want to pivot back towards a premium position though...
