Chad Cota was a steal for a 7th rounder.

Mike Minter single handedly saved the 1997 draft.

I don't think we had another player worth mentioning until Jeno James in the 6th round '00.... and he ain't worth mentioning.

Those were some horrible drafts.

At least we got some light at the end of the tunnel in 2001.

The draft is probably the #1 reason John Fox is still around. Seifert gave us those great 2001 picks, but Fox made them stars.

Was Shaun King's pic a mug shot?

LOL, that's what I thought when I looked at it...

You can call Polian a genius if you like, but there were some pretty empty drafts under his watch.

It's easy to look like a genius when Peyton Manning falls into your lap and word is that Polian almost traded that pick to the Panthers.

The Panthers' moves in the 1995 draft were epic. Trading away the weak #1 and coming out with 3 1st round picks? Holy wazoo.

I always wondered why Polian went to the Colts. I mean, he is responsible for the Titans' success a decade ago. He passed on McNair (RIP) to get Kerry Collins, and Eddie George to get Tim Biakabutuka,

I'm still waiting to see good things from this pick. After we released Lucas, we needed some secondary help. There was talk he might become a WR, but Fox put him in exactly the role I thought he would be a good fit for (CB).

He started off quiet, but played well in Arizona, then kind of went quiet again. I'm hoping he comes alive this year.

You didn't see the 3 INTs he got in the short amount of play time he got last year?

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Wanting that type of play and being okay with paying $55 million a season for it are two entirely different things. If Bryce were to become the same player Purdy has been, then he would surpass my expectations of him and I'd be okay with him as our QB of the future (and again, I've long been one of the bigger anti Bryce people here who doesn't think he is capable of being our long term solution). But in no world would I be okay with paying him THAT kind of money, paying an average starter elite money is just a terrible decision.

      I don't think they can overcome that mistake. Hell Lance was a hiccup compared to this. He isn't going to be able to carry that price tag and now he is going to have to do just that. Lol. The NFL is so dumb sometimes.

      So, one could say that T-Mac is quicker than someone of his size should be and while he might not be quite as fast as Evans in the 40, he's more athletic than Evans. If only someone, anyone, could have seen that in his tape and mentioned that on here, hmmmmmmm In all seriousness, hearing he tested in the 89th percentile in that drill at his size is crazy impressive.  Just tried to look up the times of the top WRs in the league right now, most don't show at time for that, but I did see Chase ran his in 7 seconds flat. I honestly don't know how true this is, but I do remember seeing one breakdown of his tape and the person said he has quiet and efficient feet.  That he's really good at using the minimal steps possible to make his cuts and because of that, it actually makes him look slower to the human eye because you don't see all the quick chop steps that the guys like Tyreek would use in their running. I'm still in a state of disbelief that he's a Panther and it might not fully hit me until week 1 and I see him out there making plays for us, still feels like Goodell is going to just be like, "YOU GOT PUNKED!!!  hahaha, he's a Cowboy now, suck it"
