Cool. But for clarity, do you mean at 14 or on a trade down?

And don't forget ya gotta defend it. Make your case.

With the 44th pick. See most of the other wr's before him gone and he will be the best wide recevier available at the time. For defending it. Look at his stats the past 2 year. :P

For th 14th BPA or Austin. Doesnt matter to me.

In the first. I hope they Target Keenan Allen. Obvious reason. Need that #1 wide out of the future. Sheldon Richardson. Get that inside piece that has been needed for a long time now. Desmond Trufant. Get a top corner to grow with that young secondary.

Another option would be trading down with a team with two picks in the first this year.

Finally, BPA.

I think the BPA's will be Cooper, Austin or Allen. IMO there's like a 50% chance Cooper will be there -- but even if he is, you don't know if Gettleman wants to draft a guard that high. The Giants haven't drafted an O-lineman high in a long time. I think Allen's the best pure WR prospect in the draft. He has good size, good speed and perhaps the best ball skills in the draft. The injury is all that worries me. We all know how much it sucks for your 1st round pick to get hurt. Austin is not your average receiver, but he's a dynamic weapon with game-breaking ability. Right now, I might favour Allen just because he has the potential to replace Smitty as a quintessential no.1.

I'm on the Star. L bandwagon, but I'm pretty sure we won't get him...and I will be happy regardless if recent history repeats itself

2011 - Patrick Peterson bandwagon, picked Cam (Glad I was wrong)

2012- Fletcher Cox bandwagon, picked Kuechly (Glad I was wrong)

      Malcom Spence is the best player remaining, hope he’s there.

      The era that you played in, and, more importantly, who you played with actually matters. Honestly, that's why these issues will be debated forever, as it's just difficult to say that this person or that person is better when you're discussing the passage of time. As for me, after Rice, Moss and maybe Megatron and T.O., there's probably a dozen or so guys that can be argued about to the cows come home. Personally, I'm not putting Fitz, Harrison, Johnson, Evans, or especially D-Hop, Jefferson, Chase or Hill definitely in front of Smitty (and Colston ain't even in the discussion). Context and all that stuff actually matters. Things like the triple crown matter.

      Some of those guys? Yeah honestly you can.  I would 100% take Steve Smith over Larry Fitzgerald, Harrison, even Mike Evans. He is 100% a better player than those guys in his prime. If you look at the numbers Smith is historically under targeted in comparison to his contemporaries. He was only targeted 150 times or more only once in his career. Fitzgerald for example was targeted well above that 9 different seasons. Had Smith played with Peyton, Brady, Greatest Show on Turf, or even with Warner in Arizona he would broken records. His 2008 season was ridiculous accumulating 1400 yards in 13 games on less than 80 receptions. All time he also lost a season due to injury in 04, barely played WR as a rookie. Got robbed of 1k season with Clausen. Thats easily another 1800yds minimum that should have been tacked on to his #s. The only guys I’d say for certain are better than Smith are Rice, Moss, TO, Megatron, Julio Jones, Antonio Brown.
