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)

      Ppl want to trade Melo? Am I wrong for thinking that would be a bad idea?

      Some of you act like one can't learn from experience over time. Just because you may not know what you're doing in 2018 doesn't mean that you don't know what you're doing in 2025. Frankly, you grow from experience, and success and excellence gives first-time applicants the hand probably 99.999% of the time.

      It's an interesting topic of conversation as sports evolves. I think ultimately it would lead to a number of small market franchises folding though. Especially in the NBA where there are so many bad teams that have been bad for years and years in some cases already. But as it stands I think athlete pay draft or no draft aside has reached a point where we can and should realistically ask should they make that much compared to the average person. Now college athletes is a different conversation but even that reaches a breaking point. But we could go down the rabbit hole on this even further into overall entertainment and talk about actors making absurd sums too. In the end I think in sports the powers that be won't allow these changes to even be considered because it opens the door for so many other variables. But who knows how long sports like football will realistically be around after people like us pass on. We're only just now learning about things like CTE which the league and the sport in general will only be able to run away from for so long. As far as the NBA goes my understanding is viewership has been steadily going down for a number of reasons but one crucial aspect is key players missing so many games. The NBA has to figure that out regardless. Especially when considering fans who pay to see these athletes compete in person. But hey I guess let's just try to appreciate what we've got while it still exists in this form eh?
