everette brown trade was terrible. huge bust and we traded a first rounder for him in 2009. that move, by the way, was a double down by hurney as he had traded a first the previous year for otah, another pick that finally and ultimately proved to be a bust this offseason.

only citing armanti and rivera is actually letting the guy off quite easy. to his credit, i don't fault him for the peppers thing either as that was a shitstorm largely induced by julius and his agent. i also don't hold the delhomme extension against him necessarily as that was a salary cap move.

What about all this money tied up in under utilized talent? Don't forget the huge Delhomme extension after a sub- par year. Yes we were 12-4,but we won those 12 despite Delhomme in most cases. This isn't even mentioning the playoff debacle that preceded teh signing either. I loved Delhomme but he was far from great in 2008 and we could have signed/ extended him for far less than what we did. We never REALLY established a #2 receiver outside of Muhammed.

Also I like Lafell he has shown flashed but he is not STUD status yet. He completely disappears in some games but recently he's looked much better and I hope he is the #2 we've been looking for. I've will not complain about his drafting, but some of his investments haven't turned out so well

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By DaveThePanther2008 · Posted

      Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
