Please let these Colt McCoy rumors be false. We need another playmaker on offense and Gilyard is going to be the real deal. Watch some of his college highlights it just screams Carolina Panthers at you, im not kidding. Not too mention he's a good return man..forget Tate, this is the guy Carolina has too get. Best part is we may even be able to trade back alittle and still get him since theres a lot of talent left.

Just curious what's everyones knock on Gilyard? It's not like the guy doesn't suit us in more ways than one...We need a playmaker, not another possession receiver..

I like the guy alot.....but I just have always liked Golden more. I can see how Gilyard would be a better fit here, however.

Skinny, average hands, average speed. Desean Jackson without the 5th gear.

I completely agree on not trading up for a QB, and i would rather take Clausen if we were trading up, not McCoy! But again, i dont want a QB, Tate, Benn or Gilyard would make me happy at this point...But knowing Fox and what we have lost this offseason a trade up likely means defense..

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
