Such hate.

I should've known.

Can't even respect the kid's father? I'd say that he raised a fine young man. 

Why do we have to respect his nfl takes? We don’t even respect ex scouts in the nfl, but have to respect someone’s dad’s takes? If you want to say respect everyone, then fine, but I fail to see why Bryce dad deserves special treatment

To me at least, it's funny to see BigKat and Oldman suggesting others should keep their opinions to themselves

I assumed this was posted to spark outrage at someone other than a Huddler having an opinion.

I didn't have any idea that Huddlers would be so sardonic at the mention of a player's dad choosing a receiver that he would like playing with his son. That was my bad. I actually posted it to spark a discussion about Legette and the other receivers.

In my view, based on fundamentals, hands, intelligence, and previous success, I would say that Ladd has the least chance to be a bust.  I think, if we stay with Bryce, he might be what Bryce needs more than some of the others.  The others may have higher upsides by a little, but Bryce needs weapons and success in 2024, and I think Ladd could play sooner. 

I was talking to someone about this earlier and they had a good point. If we play in extending Diontae then Ladd makes less sense as they are similar players. I’ve been leaning towards AD lately but I’d be shocked if he is there at 33. The most ideal is a big bodied WR X type WR. A speedy deep threat would work too.

You don't have to "respect" the man's takes, but you (as "you" in general) so don't have to make decidedly cheeky and unrelated remarks. It's childish to be perfectly honest.

Man, I want young to be good because then we have a franchise QB, but I also want him to be good so everyone that jumped down his throat in this fandom can be shamed for all eternity for giving up on a player less than a year into his rookie season.

I mentioned that in this thread and another one last week, but at the end of the day, two excellent route runners, one having legit speed is not a bad thing to have, as a matter of fact it could make for a nightmare for the opposition. That being said, a bigger, taller, faster prototypical receiver has theoretical advantages over a smaller one (except if you're like AB, Tyreek, Waddle, Olave, OBJ, etc.).

Yeah like I’d prefer a big redzone threat or a deep jump ball WR or a fast deep threat to keep the defense honest. These players can really open up an offense. Again I won’t be mad with Ladd and I think he has a high floor as @MHS831said.

I mean it would be comical. A lot of Huddlers would have some egg on their face…

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
