Would You Be Mad At Micheal Floyd At 9?

yeah this is the best way to approach how to draft.

What by drafting those players that best contribute to wins. Yeah I know horrible logic. The point was when you draft WR's high you pass on talented guys at positions you need that have more impact on games.

I never said they struggled I said there teams did. Who cares about individual performances when your team sucks. Welker fetched a 2nd and a 7th from the Pats so it wasn't like he was a scrub (and it was after his 3rd season).

Cam was a GREAT pick.....and we care about what he did.

Welker played 3 years in Miami. He didn't do sqaut until his 4th year. Had 2 starts in Miami. Good special teamer though in Miami

Are you seriously comparing a QB to a WR? QB is by far the most important position on the football field.

Well, you were arguing it doesn't matter what guys do as individuals and how good they are if a team still sucks......

But I guess that applies to everyone but QBs.

This is the way this board has a debate. Never back up there statements with reasoning just insult them.

If you've reached the point where you think Calvin Johnson didn't effect games from day one, a game where he had 4 receptions for 70 yards and a TD, then you've abandoned reason and have decided to dwell in lunacy.

You should be treated as such.

Elite WRs do more than catch balls. They command double teams which frees up other WRs and can even help in the run game.

When an Elite QB has an elite WR its almost unstoppable, for example Jerry Rice and Montana or more recently Moss and Brady.

I'm done with this. I try to bring a different perspective then the rest on here and what happens you get a bunch of smart asses.

Not being a smart ass.

For example, the Bengals. AJ Green. Green was the biggest reason for the improvement of that team.......not Dalton. dalton checked down and threw lobs for Green all year. AJ Green was a great pick.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
