I know  this will get flamed but i would not hate the idea. The guy is the best wideout to come out since AJ Green/Julio Jones. The guy does everything atleast average to above average. He high points the ball he's strong and could run as fast as 4.33(rumored). The guy is ripped for 205-210 receiver,and run over defenders. This guy is a weapon and would also be our new KR allowing ted to work on his wr skills.Every team in our division has a true number one and i'm exspecting Smitty to look even worse than this year. He is worth a top 5 pick and if he slips outside of that range I would not mind a move ala falcons a few seasons ago. Instant offense. I know we have needs everywhere but true bluechip players like this don't come out every year.  I can't watch another season of pray someone gets open for cam.

Watkins is a tempting prospect and I'd love to have him. However, I don't like the idea of mortgaging the future. #1 receivers can be had for a lower price than two first rounders. Look at whats happening with Bob in DC. They tossed, what, three first rounders to get him? Dude is falling off the wagon and DC is on suicide watch.

 

I'd rather wait our turn and take the best player available.

      Panthers decision to pass on Walker

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      The preference for smallish NTs was bizarre to me. I mean, you're already looking for a bit of a unicorn with a NT anyway trying to find a guy who can consistently hold his ground against double teams. Now you want to find a smaller, quicker guy who can do it? Yeah, good luck with that...

      Yep. I had 2 shoulder surgeries (same shoulder) in college. What you say is true because the joint is a ball-in-socket joint and not like a knee, which is a hinge joint.  Another reason (this from my orthopedic surgeon) it is more difficult to overcome is because people want and need to walk, so they are constantly rehabbing the knee.  You can protect the shoulder and avoid using it.  And you can play with a banged up shoulder because it does not reduce your game speed much.  As long as I kept my arm in tight (close to my rib cage) I was fine--but when I extended my arm, I felt vulnerable and it was weaker, it seemed. A shoulder issue was common with LBs.  I don't recall seeing a LB in the dressing room without a surgical scar on is shoulder.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      F- pick. Taking a hurt RB is the dumbest thing a team starved for tallent could have done in the 2nd. As for planning for 2025, they could have just waited since he brought nothing to 2024. That entire argument that they were playing the long game is like such a copout, just admit it was busted from every angle. They bet poorly and lost. It was a dumb pick and a complete waste of a chance to pick up a meaningful player this team still desperately needs. Picks like that is why this team is picking top 10 ever y year.
