The trade up into the 1st still infuriates me. Height of fuging hubris.

We traded 1 spot so we have a 5th year option. 1 spot dude. Personally, I get the logic behind wanting the 5th year option on a WR. I don't think hubris has anything to do with it. And it's not like we gave up more than the equivalent of a 7th rounder to move 1 spot. Basically we got a 5th year option on XL for next to nothing. Really not that big of a deal.

I don't think people realize just how in danger Adam Thielen is with Coker's emergence. I keep hearing XL but AT is who Coker makes the most expendable.

You can add TMac, XL, Coker, Renfrow, Horn and Moore all together and their cap hit is on par with AT.   Morgan literally just paid him.  I was against it. But Morgan taking that big dead cap hit right after paying him would be admitting a pretty big mistake…which doesn’t seem very front office-ish.

Well he was the only consistently effective WR that Bryce had chemistry with. It just kind of was what it was.

I suspect he will prove to still be the #1 target, although I would love for some of our higher potential guys like Tmac, Coker, etc to start stealing those targets. 

AT is near the end. No sense in investing a ton of targets for a guy that has a very short career window left.

Barring some trade or injury, there are four receivers guaranteed to be on the roster when we play Jacksonville.

Thielen

Coker

Legette

TMac.  

Assuming we keep 6, the other two spots are up for grabs.  Renfrow looks like the favorite for #5, not sure about the last one.  

I would say Renfrow may be on shakier ground than most simply due to health. If that hadn't been the case, I have no doubt he would be a lock.

You throw the ball to the guy who gives you the best chance to win at the moment you are throwing it.  

If the rest of the group is as good as we think, then we use Thielen as a Ricky Proehl type.

I think AT gets traded at the deadline and Moore comes up from the practice squad (if we can stash him) and that’s our final WR room

Horn should make it for special teams as a return option

    • We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that
    • There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel. 
    • Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
