TMJ and Chark were terrible.

It definitely looks like a great WR class. Honestly, last year's was a strong class too. People who thought it was a weak class were too fixated on the top of the draft. If you were holding a top 15 picks wanting a WR you didn't like last year's class. The strength of the class was the mid-round talent. We were smart to go WR where we did, we just chose poorly. Same thing with the Bryce pick. Trading up to #1 wasn't an idiotic plan. Bold, yes. But not idiotic given the QB talent on the board. We identified correctly that the cream of the crop would be off the board by #9 and we shot our shot. Then we chose poorly.

This year's WR class has both the mid-round talent and those elite top of the draft prospects. WR should definitely be in the mix at #33.

It's pretty wild how terrible this franchise has been at drafting WRs.

By far the best WR in franchise history was a mid-round pick drafted in large part for his abilities as a returner. 

You can argue Moose. Saw a video on Benjamin and he was great and really just never recovered from that injury. DJ was solid, but still dropped too many balls imo. always bring back bersin?

Moose was very good. DJ was very good. But when you're left with just a handful of good picks at a position where you routinely carry 4+ players on your roster that's overall terrible.

TMJ still has a year on his rookie deal.  He's cheap depth if nothing else, like WR5 or WR6.   He can walk next offseason.

If you're wanting to instill a new culture of toughness and accountability he's probably gotta go. Not like you'd be losing much. He could easily be replaced by a late round pick or someone off the FA scrap heap after roster cut downs.

I agree in principle, but there's too many holes on the roster to address every need in one offseason.  If he's a locker room cancer, then cut him, but if he's simply maxed out as a mediocre NFL WR then he can just be depth.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
