Floyd Could Now Be Drafted Over Blackmon

I'll tell you what, you have to like what Jimmy is doing. Most people in his situation would have given up all hope by now, but he is still trying to get better and help himself as well as a former teammate out.

On a another note, any wide receiver that can make Clausen look like a good quarterback should instantly top the NFL Draft rankings for wide receiver. Hell, not even Steve Smith could make Clausen look like a decent quarterback.

It's April and now it's time for agent/teams to start spreading the typical disimformation in axn attempt to raise/lower draft positions. Blackmon is now compared to Boldin and Floyd to Fitzgerald. Someone releases Clairborn's low test score to lower his appeal. Expect daily talk of who is being brought in but the player actually drafted may well say that he was never shown any interest by the team beforehand.

That is just so wrong. Sure Floyd could make him look good when they are the only two on the field. Put a D on the field and Jimmy boy is instantly confused. Smitty couldn't help that.

This is my opinion so don't get butt hurt

I think it would be a very smart move to get Floyd with our #9 pick. Yes, our defense sucked hard last year, but if anyone can turn a bunch of scrubs into a good unit its Rivera. He said he would take more control of our D, and with a full off season of OTA's and workouts, he could vastly improve our defense quicker than others project.

What I think is very important to our FO is continuing to develop Cam. It makes sense to me that we start a good young combo that would be elite for years and years. We most likely wont be picking this high in a long time barring a trade or whatever, so i think we should snag that high caliber WR while we have the chance.

Floyd would fit our offense so perfectly, better than Blackmon IMO. This dude is the next Vincent Jackson! We would have the most Physical and Explosive offense in the NFL hands down.

    • I never thought a second look was even necessary. I was begging the football gods not to have us trade up to the 1st pick. And damn once we did it was a thoroughbred vs a little pony.    If you have a perceived generational player in the pool and you have the 1st pick, you just don’t trade it. In the first place. But all this Bryce drama - which (understandably) takes over almost any thread, just like this one - would never have happened if the team was not sold to Tepper. 
    • I agree. I understand why he did though. And surely he had his parents in his ear who have always gone out of their way to make sure he always had the best and the least amount of adversity around him to that point in his life advising him to do so. Where I take the most issue with it is when people who just want to be sycophants start listing off other QB's who didn't throw at the combine and you don't even make it through half the names before your eyes roll right into the back of your head realizing every single of those QB's who didn't throw already clearly showcased the necessary prerequisite physical talents needed for the position.
