Will Johnson is starting to grow on me.. 

Tony Pauline who has had good scoops in the past reported within the last month we 'love' Johnson...along with Walker & Mykel more recently. 

If we aren't looking at passing targets as much as people may want them (I haven't seen much smoke around Tet or Warren), we may be looking at Will Johnson (or) Jalon Walker.  Mykel Williams/Shemar Stewart being backup plans if we can trade down.

Apparently not. Not sure how he smells but he is far from elite and that is not an isolated opinion. Just based on what little film I've seen on him he needs a lot of work, I mean A LOT. He's not a sure thing.

Holding the ball too long and hero-ing is about all I’m seeing. What else you got for the LOT? That being said….Loveland rated higher on a big board? Not buying it.

At first I was vehemently against t Mac. But seeing the insane prices wr have been going for if they believe Bryce is the guy and if t mac is the #1 wr they have on the board then get him so we have a #1 wr on a rookie contract as they're now a  30-40 mill a year position 

That's the same as reaching for need.  Can't take one just to take one because they're expensive to sign.   We already clearly need to add speed and have the slowest wr room there is.

I wouldn't be really mad if we took Will Johnson but he's apparently been dealing with nagging injuries and I mean we just extended a corner who has only played 15 games in a single season once. I'm of the opinion we should consider a corner in one of the other rounds.

They're definitely in our sights with Amos & Porter being two of our more notable T30 visits.

Good teams don't bring in first rounders they want in their t30 visits.  Good teams use them for late rounders and to find out info on other teams.

There's a multitude of reasons why teams have T30s.

I think if you have a top 10 pick you should have all the information possible before you draft

I'd like to know the drop of from TMac to Jayden Higgins for people with better eyes than me. For our 2nd round pick

There's a lot of good options in the third for what we need.

      I'm not sure that in a fair QB competition that Young would beat out Jones.

      That's why I said stats aside. I lived in CO during Allen's college career and didn't have kids at the time so I watched most of his games. Bruh, I'm telling you. Balls just spraying all over the place. The type of throws where you're honestly trying to figure out who he was even trying to throw that one too. It was crazy. Richardson was inaccurate in college but at least you could tell who he was trying to throw it too. He threw a lot of early in the game Cam Newton type balls where it seemed like he was just a little too amped up and everything was a few feet high. Richardson's misses looked like they were maybe fixable with working on his footwork, release, etc. Josh Allen's misses looked like "ain't no way you're fixin' that poo, dude has a cannon equipped with no sights". LOL Huge props to the Bills for evaluating him as fixable and indeed fixing him.
