Catching some grief from the Defensive Tackle with the first crowd yet? I agree Floyd is gonna make some team very happy. I think his value is right where we are picking and don't understand those saying if he slips to the second we will take him. Matter of fact could see someone trade up for him. The 49ers and the Bears are looking for a real deal numero uno WR and the Eagles are looking for DeSean "Sideline Cancer" Jackson's replacement.

after blackmon there is a clump of about 4 or 5 WRs without a lot of seperation. floyd is right in the middle of that clump.

I disagree with ya Rayzor. Imagine that. In my opinion there are only three possible Elite WR's. Blackmon, Wright and Floyd. Sanu, Jones, Randle, and the rest will not be able to come right in and produce like the Top Three. There is a definite gulf between the two groups.

Matter of fact i think its the DT class that has very little separation in talent. With no Suh or Dareus scouts have inflated the value of Brockers and Still. If i may i would like to rank the DT's imo.

1a. Brockers

1b. Still

1c. Brandon Thompson

2a. Jerel Worthy

2b. Fletcher Cox

3a. Dontari Poe

3b. Josh Chapman

See what i did there? Too much comparable talent to reach. Tier 1 are the all around guys with the most upside. Tier 2 are the pass rush and McLain competition. Last but not least Chapman and Poe are insurance if Edwards comes back less that 100% and or Fua does not step up. Then again i feel that drafting two last year, the emergence of Neblett, and the return of Edwards makes this a potential logjam on the depth chart and ultimately a wasted pick.

Just my opinion but Poe, Chapman, and my pick Mike Martin of Michigan could all come in a contribute on our team or any other team just as well as Brockers or Still.

why are you talking about DTs?

i thought this was a discussion of Floyd and WRs.

i think this is a very good class of WRs. sorry if you don't agree with me that there isn't much seperation between those WRs. i just don't see it. it's not knocking floyd. i he's one of the best in a very good and deep class.

i think any of floyd, jeffery, wright, sanu and randle can come in right away and do well starting. i don't mess around with ranking these guys because i think they are all massively talented and a lot of it depends on the situation they go to. i could even see all these guys taken in the first round. i expect that there will be at least 4 WRs taken in the first.

WRs are coming out better prepared for the pro level just like QBs are. i wouldn't be a bit surprised to see all those guys and a couple other rookie WRs starting by the season's end.

as far as us drafting a WR in the first...no question i'm not a fan of that idea because i think that fixing the D is the biggest priority. go BPA on D is what i suggest. i just happen to see that brockers can be that elite talent that you look for that early. quite a few people agree with me on that. if blackmon miraculously falls to us somehow then we take him, but that won't happen. same with kalil. same with claiborne.

i'm not singularly focused on DT. i just think that if brockers is as good as advertised then he could make the biggest positive difference out of anyone aside from those few i listed. if we trade back i'm available to more options.

by not taking a WR that early, we might miss out on a very talented prospect later, but the same can be said for lots of positions.

just my opinion.

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By hepcat · Posted

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
