With AT being slot and Mingo having slot as his best fit, I’d prefer a WR that could play outside. Washington has a lot of talent though…

I think that people are assuming that the slot is Mingo's best fit. I really haven't seen concrete evidence of this. Moreover, I'm not sure Thielen is even going to be here this season; he's certainly not going to be here long term. We should not ignore the long term. There's arguably been too much of that. Mind you that this means that Washington is likely not going to be drafted at 33. Number 65?

He’s rated as 80th best player in draft.  He’s a late 2nd or early 3rd rounder.  He’s 5’8 strictly slot WR in NFL.  He’s quick, physical with good first step and decent route runner but not blazing speed.  He’ll be perfect for Bryce because he gets a lot of yards after contact.  The only issue is Bryce might not see him over the line.

Tyreek Hill and Waddle are both 5'10.  You dont have to have these big receivers any more.  Quick timing routes, receivers that can get seperation and yac are the modern NFL.   I hope we dont prioritize size at all with our wr selections.  Ive heard weve talks to leggett multiple times and that terrifies me and I'm worried about Morgan as if is.

Tyreek Hill and Waddle have 5’10 QBs?

No.  They are 5'10 wr obviously.   Tua is  barely 6' qb 2" taller than Bryce.   Saying Bryce has to have tall receivers because hes 2" shorter is as bad as the whole Cam needs tall receivers so he doesnt overthrow them.

It’s about seeing over LOS.  Most OL are 6’3-6’4 and when they block they bent their knees, allowing QBs to see over.  When you 5’10, you are asking your OL to bend their knees 6 inches instead of 2 inches (6’2 QB).  The OL won’t bent their knees 6 inches lol.  It’s not WR issue, it’s QB issue.

New plan! We take all players less than 6 foot at all positions! Problem solved.

They should all come at a discounted price due to their shortcomings. 

Well, at least Bryce would be able to see over the line (I think).

      1 shot 1 goal tracker

      I don’t go back and look at the espn but there live it definitely said 1 shot 1 goal when it happened. I guess they had not added them yet. Still allowing goals that early is rough. Blue line is a total disaster still. Even with Slavin back. Miller and Nikishin keep making mistakes after mistakes.

      Post senior bowl PFF mock draft

      By Navy_football · Posted

      I generally disagree with the concept of picking a position because of value early in the draft. For instance, if there's a really good safety, RB or ILB at pick 10, I'm choosing him over a project WR or DE. Better players make the team better. A bunch of ok players will give you an ok team. The number 1 goal of the draft should be to improve the overall talent on the team. Not to fill positions of need.  Deciding beforehand that you're picking a LT in the first or second round because Ickey went down is not the way to improve the team. Now if Dan has similar grades on 2 or 3 players and one happens to be a LT, then yeah go for it. But don't pass on your guy at ILB because you have a gap at LT or need to improve the pass rush with a DE. When those guys don't pan out then you haven't improved your team. But that LB could have been a franchise cornerstone for years to come. See Luke Kuechly and Christian McCaffrey.
