For all the people crying about the WR choice, do keep in mind that these DE/EDGE guys seem to be dropping. So we may end up being able to grab a starting caliber guy anyway. 

and maybe they aren't as good as their hype. It sure looks like the nfl sees it that way or at least that there isnt so much difference between the top 10

You don't like taking the drafts #1 WR?  Sigh

I don’t like not fast WRs, that aren’t really good route runners….for an O in desperate need of YAC and speed.   We just spent a first on XL to develop. 

not saying anything new or reactionary.  Same thought posted earlier today multiple times

He’ll get separation by being twice the size of the DB and boxing them out for the ball.

Plenty of analysts had him over both. I don't know where some of y'all have been. Don't get lost in the lying season. Tet was regarded by many as the top receiver in this draft. 

I'm going off plenty of rankings plus my own. I had rated in the 30's overall in this draft but thought he'd get picked middle of the first. I had Golden and Hunter above him by quite a lot. 

Defense was a much bigger need and I had Walker rated 3rd/4th overall in this draft, so did ESPN and a bunch of others.

 

Problem with tet is you can take him out of the game by pressing him and being physical at the Los by putting hands on him with a solid punch by the DB. Can't be an X in the NFL and get taken out by press coverage and DB's being physical.

I am not sure I have ever seen a prospect as overrated as Warren by our fanbase. 

Even worse, some douche on this forum was saying we would be an idiot not to draft him and guaranteed he would go top 10 🤦‍♂️ The dude also pooed every post I said that I rated him as late 1st round talent 

Also not surprised loveland went before him

I think it is largely a lot of solid, starting caliber players but not much in the way of elite players. But, given depth of this class, I do think you will see some Pro Bowl/All Pro caliber guys. Probably at least 2, IMO. The issue will be figuring out which guy it is.

    • He does have speed. 21+ top end speed is very fast for a linebacker and his 3 cone drill time is considered excellent, close to elite.  
    • This is awesome because you get to see the perspectives of the scouts--get a glimpse behind the curtain. I wonder whose doing this was; I am curious as to why David Tepper allowed it. Maybe it was his wife. Maybe Dan.  At least from my perspective--and probably one shared by other fans--when David Tepper bought the team, he closed everything off too much to the fans, and really didn't give an explanation. Things were obviously done because he (and/or some others wanted to do it). Remember when they used the guise of construction and all that to keep fans from seeing the team during practice? I know there are laws and safety and all that, but Tepper could've made it happen. And, of course, we all know that they essentially fired Jeremy from his independent contractor gig as a photojournalist. I never understood why they'd do that (and the negative reverberations obviously affected Jeremy and ultimately this place--i.e, us fans). The pie was (and is) certainly big enough to throw some scraps to the independents. I realize that you can't necessarily open the floodgates, but a few different perspectives from indy journalists whether in word or photos is a good thing in my mind.  So, it's great to see different perspectives. I will say this however: it is not without risk, as you know there will be some buster who will be calling the scouts out if the players flop. I think we should all keep in mind that the buck stops with the GM. It's nice to have one, however, that is so convicted in his people and process--and ultimately success, that he's willing to give fans access to this type of information. Pass this on to Tepper.
    • I hope he ends up being our best ever at the position. Ryan Kalil left big shoes behind that we haven't quite been able to fill since.
