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.

      How do you expect him to step up in the pocket when Ickey is being pushed to the spot you want him to be. Stills don’t tell the entire picture.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      They're examples of denying reality. Here are some others: ,- Bryce is the worst QB in the NFL right now (no he isn't) - Bryce is the worst QB in NFL history (no he's not; that's stupid) - Well then Bryce is at least the the worst QB in the league over the last three years (nope, he's actually improved a lot since year one, which was a turbulent year anyway) - That's not true, he hasn't Improved one but since his rookie year (oh come on) 🙄 - Well, even if he did, we can't win with him (obviously we can) - Yeah but not unless everyone else is damn near perfect (think the game film from our wins this year would back that up?) - Even so, we won those games in spite of him (officially the stupidest argument available) And no, those are made up. You can find those quotes and other equally moronic statements in various threads around the board. I know some folks always need to characterize whatever they're against as the worst thing in existence. It's hyperbole, and it's hypersilly. Likewise, you've got some who are so absolutely emotional about it that even if you think Bryce isn't good enough (which I do) they'll still call you a stan if you don't agree to label him the lousiest passer in existence 🙄 It's just dumb, and it's not realistic. But on the flipside, here are some statements which are; - Bryce is indeed capable of both playing in, and winning, an NFL game. Not on a consistent level though, and consistency is huge. - He is also capable of completing mid-range and even some deep passes; hell, he threw a beauty this past Sunday  - Yes, he has improved over his rookie season and over last year. Arguing against that is disingenuous. - Believe it or not, other players are the roster do make mistakes in games also.  - And lastly, while I know it hurts some people's narrative and arguments, Bryce does indeed deserve credit for the winning games he's played in this season. ... Every single one of those statements is true. And since i acknowledge all that, I must be in favor of keeping him in place then Except I'm not 😕 ... Don't know of anyone who doesn't think he'll get the fifth year option. Not ready to guarantee anything beyond that, though. So bottom line: Yeah, Bryce is fully expected to be our quarterback through next year. If there were a logical, realistic path to acquire a more capable starter and transition Bryce to a backup I'd be elated, but that's a pipe dream. This where we're at  I don't **** it, you don't like it, others don't either. But here We are so let's make the best of it that we can.
