Rivera Will Finalize Pick "Week of"

I still want to trade out of the pick. There are going to be some clowns that are enamored with one of the two media darling QB's although neither one is worthy of the spot. We all know how some teams are (see Al Davis/Raiders). Let them reach for a QB in a down QB year talent wise.

we will not trade the pick, we will take a QB, and a Vet QB after the draft

1. Cam Newton, Special, Steps up in pocket, extends plays, showed accuracy on deep balls, character may clash with other cocky personalities on team IE: Shockey or Smith,

2. Ryan Mallet Strong Arm, Stiff neck, makes great throws, then follows them up with very bad decisions on the next play

3. Blaine Gabbert I mean his name is the equivalent to his production....

so.... with the cba in the condition it is, how long will we wait to sign our rookies? almost guarantees that no contract will be worked out before-hand yes?

We sign them when there's a CBA in place, either a new agreement or reverting back to the last CBA based on the outcome of the judicial ruling.

No sense in deciding any earlier than you have to... why not do as much preparation as possible?

From what I've read, that's the Marty Hurney thought process in a nutshell.

And not just when it comes to drafts, honestly. How many times have we watched free agent decisions go down to the wire?

    • we have 2 solid/above average (however you want to phrase that) wr's, which is more than half the league at least.  We dont need to be blowing more first round capital just to placate Bryce and his limitations.   We have one absolute stud (probably top 10 wr) in tmac and we have a high floor guy with insane potential if he can stay healthy.  Yeah man we are in better shape than the bulk of the teams in the league.  If you need to add some speed or whatever, sure draft in the mid rounds or wait until tc cuts.  Its monumentally stupid to spend 3 straight firsts on a wr if thats the route they go.  ITs just more and more excuses for Bryce, thats where we are at now.    "How can bryce succeed without a big possession type wr (drafts 2 for him), how is bryce supposed to exceed without a speed guy......."   Its fuging never ending.  Give EE some goddamn help on defense for once
    • Tight ends in the first round just have so much risk. Even guys that look like guarantees at the position, fail. OJ Howard is a big one that comes to mind (and I REALLY liked him and thought he was going to be a stud in the NFL). I know that every player/position can be a gamble, but when you look at Kyle Pitts (he's come a long way, but he has clearly underperformed), TJ Hockenson, Hayden Hurst, Noah Fant, Eric Ebron, etc., NONE of these guys changed the dynamic of their team for the better. Zero. In fact, most of them end up being traded before their rookie deal is up. This draft has some good tight ends. I wouldn't spend a 1st on one.
    • Not true. I mean, come on dude. You went to "above average" to "solid." The teams that I mentioned have at least three solid options. Let's not waste time going through the motions.  But, maybe someone will see it as fun. Njigba, Shaheed, Kupp (maybe even Barner and/or Arroyo). I didn't even lost everyone. The Jags, Minny, Detroit. I could probably go on. Our WR corps is just not up to snuff. Just admit it.
