Just a look back at all the complaints people had about drafting receivers earlier in the year. People wanted 2 players in perticular...

Mardy Gillyard - 6 rec 63 yards.

Golden Tate - 20 Rec 224 yards...

Our recievers...

Brandon Lafell - 38 Rec 468

David Gettis - 37 - 508

Hey, I think we did an okay job at the reciever position this time ;)

you cannot compare teams in different scenarios like that. Why dont you compare Danario Alexanders last 4 games to LaFells? wouldnt be as pretty of a stat probably

Different situations? these teams have no WR and better QB's... they should be doing much better than Lafell and Gettis with what they are working with under center.

Not when they are not the #1 and #2 Wr's for games, #2 and #3 for others and have to take most offensive snaps.

Put those guys on Carolina teams and ask them to be #1 and #2 Wr's I believe they put up similar stats.

Point is, Seahawks and Rams have had receiver problems and if those 2 can't get on the field with what they are working with then it speaks better to the two we got.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
