Lewan times a thousand. I wouldn't even take Martin, there will be a WR there at 28 I'd rather have than Martin: Lee, Matthews, OBJ, Benjamin. I might even take Cooks over Martin.

 

If it was between Martin and the receivers, you'd pick a receiver even if we traded for Jackson and signed Cason and Thomas? Just curious..

The problem with Martin is that when a defensive end crosses his face inside, it's like he doesn't even see him. The DE gets pretty much a free shot at the QB. He is great blocking inside out and blocking down in the run game, but when he has to block outside in, he gets beat. Badly. That tells me that he won't be ready for NFL defensive line stunts for quite awhile. I understand why some experts believe he will be a better guard. He reminds me of a better run blocking version of Sam Baker.

I would because there's no guarantee that we could afford to resign Jackson if he produces like he's capable.  It would be nice to have someone waiting in the wings just in case that scenario plays out next year.  .

Yup.  Even if we did trade for Jackson, that still leaves us with only 1 longish term WR.  Need another.

It is one thing for allegations to be brought against a person and another to actually be charged with the crime allegedly committed..

I absolutely understand that . But an altercation with rival fans should not drop his stock status that much... If at all.

No way he slides. Guy is too good

      if  ANYONE actually goes & looks at the FACTS on rookie Qb's after 2 full seasons as a starter in the NFL & they are still well below average do they rarely ever actually become top tier Qb's & instead most likely either do not recieve a second contract & or become life long backups...just saying

      So he became GM and decided not to address the weakness in the QB room following one of the worst rookie QB performances in NFL history?  There were options last season other than signing Dalton to a 2 year deal. Brissett and Jones by a wide margin, both of whom outplayed Bryce, Wilson, Winston, hell even Rivers off the couch was more exciting at the QB position. The time to address the failure in the QB room was last year but instead people on the Huddle cheered when we brought Dalton back then cheered when we were able to get anything for him after they finally realized he was washed up like a few of had been saying all along and got poo'd for even mentioning.  This year, the options were more limited obviously, especially since we lost Icky. It changed the dynamic of our draft. I think we were stuck this year keeping Bryce, but i still think giving him a 5th year option for what has amounted to replacement worthy performance was the wrong move. Why guarantee 25m if you're planning to replace him? You think he's going to want to be a bridge QB? Hell no. He's going to want out and we'll end up cutting him if he has another lackluster season because no one is trading for him with that price tag.  Were there better options as far as production available. A couple. Were there guys available with more physical tools than Bryce, Pickett or Grier, you damn well better believe there were. I've been saying all along, you always keep looking for your 1b. Bryce has yet to prove he can be a starter. Keep looking for someone who may. Put competition in camp. Let the best QB lead the team. Stop settling for less than mediocre.
