I liked the Klein pick when it was made. And he's definitely proving his worth on the field. Hell, he's giving us WAY more production than you'd expect from a 5th round pick.

There sure were a lot of folk beside themselves that we didn't take a 5th round WR though. "Which one?" many of us asked. "DA'RICK ROGERS!" many answered. "Anybody! ANYBODY!" others said.

:lol:

I wanted Quinton Patton in the 3rd, we took Kugbila.

Great.

What does the 4th round have to do with my post about the 5th round and after? If my basic math skills are correct, if Patton was taken in the 4th round, then he wasn't available in the 5th round when Klein was selected, correct?

Wilson's from my alma mater. He needs more meat on him, but he makes great catches. He was great at our school. Not sure how he'll fair in the NFL.

Didnt want him here though. Klein has been nice so far. And GM still stole a WR with King. So can't complain. I think I was more annoyed with the Kugbila like others have stated.

    • I’m keeping an eye on what the Hawks do with Boye Mafe. There’s a few young talented players that needs to be retained and one of their defensive starters might not fit within the budget. My guess is probably Riq Woolen is voted off the island but Mafe could be potentially too. His stats aren’t eye popping, but in McDonald’s defense, his role is to leverage for the DL to clean up. Mafe’s QB pressure rate is top notch and in a different scheme, he could clean up.    Just something to watch this weekend when SEA is in town.
    • Ok fair to judge only his starts.  But you do acknowledge that going from "he's waaaay above league average in a number of categories" to "here's a single stat where he's above league average (not "waaaay") and another where he is exactly at the league average" is a pretty significant backpedal, no?  I'm guessing he's probably in the ~10th range for completion percentage too if we're only looking at starts (I'm too lazy to isolate his starts and do the calculations), so I'll grant you that one too.  But I don't think completion percentage is all that meaningful as a standalone stat if it isn't bolstered by good TD%, Y/A, etc. On that note, for how much people like posting Passing Charts in here (*cough* CRA) - if you peep Shough's passing charts, he hasn't completed a single 20+ yard pass in the past 3 games combined.  His last one was in Week 13 against the Dolphins, which was a single pass of 24 yards.  I just want to be consistent in how we apply our standards - I think it's always been warranted to criticize Bryce for it (even dating back to his rookie season), but do we suddenly not care about that with Shough? And yeah I did acknowledge that Saints' fans have reason to be excited about him and complimented his poise, which is giving my props.  Still not sure I agree that he looks better than a "ton" of QBs nor do I think you or anyone have really demonstrated that.  I think you are generally one of the more reasonable level-headed posters which is why I'm confused at what I consider to be rather hyperbolic language about Shough.
    • I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3! https://www.panthers.com/video/jimmy-horn-jr-s-25-yard-run-gives-panthers-red-zone-access-on-first-drive
