He would have been the 6th best wr last year, maybe 5th and we just took him at 8 overall.   We are in a bizarro world

What’s bizarre is to use a draft from another year to say someone was under or over drafted. The question is where he was rated in this years draft. Maybe he would have been the top pick in 1987, so he’s a total steal this year hurp durp

Brugler has him at 12 with him being WR1. I trust his opinion more than most. Picking the 12th best player and top of his position at 8 isn’t that crazy. He actually had him mocked to us in some of his drafts. 

Brugler didn't have Hunter as a WR, only CB. Hunter was the Best WR and best CB in this draft.

I could've seen trading back and getting a 2nd round pick and taking Golden over staying at 8 and taking Tet who struggles with press coverage and DB's punching him during release.

Based on what??  ESPN has him ranked a 91.  That only below Harrison, Nabers, and Odunze putting him at WR4.  Brugler said he might be WR3 in last year's class as @Bear Handsjust stated.  Stop being so dramatic...

Funny I remember you telling me the same thing last year when I was against the XL pick.  How did that work out?

Says who? You? He would have gone 3rd after Nabers who went 6. Nobody had BTJ as an all pro guy pre draft

Even if true, who was a cleaner prospect in this draft where we were picking? Back to back 1300 yard seasons playing for a pretty volatile Arizona program. Every prospect on the board at 8 had warts.

Not to mention, how they’re ranked as prospects is never clean with the output. Marv Jr was this undeniable prospect but now people are really questioning if he’s a #1 with Nabers and BTJ looking like the absolute truth for their squads.

Also a lesson- never shy from the LSU receivers — minus that one we drafted lol

Yep. Back to back 1,300 yard seasons is nothing to scoff at. He's produced and he's got the measurables, rather than the XL method of he's got the measurables but hasn't produced as much.

      NFL Free Agency

      I honestly feel bad for Willis. I mean, good that he got a decent (NFL QB speaking) payday and will be set for life, but in terms of actually competing and providing he's a legit starter? The Dolphins are gonna carry $175M in dead cap this year and they have an out in Willis' contract after the 2027 season. This seems like the most obvious tank job in history with Willis signed as cover for it.

      What to Consider when you Draft in Round 1

      By BeenPounding · Posted

      I was scrolling X (Twitter) and I came across this clip....If I shows up here I'd be shocked.  Anyway it was supposed to highlight the blocking ability of Antonio Williams.  All I noticed is how well Blake Miller moved on pulls and in space.  I'm thinking it should be Miller Time in Carolina. I think with half a season of coaching that either Miller or Iheanachor could end up at LT, specifically Iheanachor with his footwork and those super long arms.  He's raw, but that could be a good thing with those natural athletic gifts.   https://x.com/NFL_DF/status/2033992963659796861?s=20

      I am using Kelce more as an example of what people think you get with a 1st round TE.    3 f the top 4 yardage guys of all time are 1st rounders. I think. But realize these would be the guys with super long careers, and/or top QBs throwing to them. We don’t have a top QB.    And there have been Plenty of first round disappointments too. More of them than the all time leaders for sure.    We were treating Bryce as the ultimate ‘don’t fug it up’ game manager in order to get a few of those 8 wins. And to stay close in some losses.   1st round picks, starting in 2023 that have been used on a WR or on the QB? 2023 1 (qb) 2024 2 (1 & 32) (qb, wr) 2025 1 (wr) When does it stop?
