Blackmon was considered the best receiver in the draft all throughout the season and up until this week....and all of a sudden this guy goes from the second/third best receiver to first based on a pro day?

You're all on crack.

Blackmon COULD have character concerns. He was arrested at OSU for a DUI (I know, DUI's for celebrities are severely overstated by the media). I also remember him delaying a TD by 10 seconds by running sideways along the goal line....with 9 minutes to go in the 1st quarter. Again, not a huge deal - but when he gets paid and his ego gets stoked, there is no guarantee he will behave.

I'd like to think he won't be a Desean Jackson type prima-donna, but it wouldn't shock me.

Floyd however, would be a nice pickup if we don't go D in the 1st. I love him, but also have caution for a different reason. Notre Dame doesn't tend to produce great WR's. There are currently 3 in the NFL: Golden Tate, Arnaz Battle and Maurice Stovall. I hope he bucks the current trend bc I like him a lot, but just pointing it out.

      Also, you don't really get good value by drafting a center in the first.

      First off, we haven't been ignoring the defense. We have drafted several defensive players, but, perhaps more importantly, we have added good pieces in free agency. Secondly, the offense was still kinda bad (27th or so depending where you look at). You can't just say we can't pick an offensive guy while acknowledging that the offense wasn't good. Everything is on the table. Like I said above, it seems kind of counterproductive to say that we shouldn't draft an offensive player high unless they're at certain positions. The offense was mediocre at best. Sure, we had an uncanny knack to win some close games at opportune times, but the offense wasn't really good. To me, it makes little sense to put limitations on who/what we should draft when we need an upgrade at so many positions. What you look at is trying to get the best value--bang for your buck so to speak--and that's the way it should be. D-Mo has used FA to set up the draft in order not to be pigeonholed into anything, and that's the way that it should be.

      Hubert has plenty of money. I don't hate the guy. I think he a legit good guy. This is Ron Rivera all over again for me. It's just very obvious a coaching change is needed and it audka we gottaboart ways with a good guy and I'd much rather it work out but the same issues appearing again and again year after year are clearly shouting what needs to happen. With that said, if we hire Todd Golden, that's it. I'm out. I'd greatly prefer to just keep getting disappointed by Hubert. I can at least stand to root for that.
