Yep, exactly. In the NFL these days you need quick shifty receivers that get open running their routes. Separation is key. We keep drafting wr's like it's 1999 and we are just going to throw deep balls in to double coverage, when the modern NFL defense is a shell that focuses on stopping over the top passes. We literally keep trying to build to what the rest of the NFL has already figured out and learned exactly how to stop. The same with chasing the seahawks and legion of boom defense always.

Sure, but there have been a lot more cases of these tweener guys not working out than there have been Hasson Reddicks.

My main concern for edge potential (which is the only way he's worth pick is that he doesn't have an edge build at all.

Yep. Much closer to Drake London than Mike Evans like some people want to say. Evans was much more explosive and better at using his size to make plays contested. TMac is better on the short and intermediate routes.

They literally used the individual fastest time for that post. Basically everyone there had him between 4.54 and 4.59. Just watch the tape. He's not a 4.4 guy. Also you usually add .05 for hand timed pro days.

As you said, when they chase after players to solve problems, you don't get the best players. I say throw all this out the window and draft the highest graded players, problem position or not. Free agency is for filling holes and solving problems, the draft is for adding talent, just focus on that.

Good teams don't bring in first rounders they want in their t30 visits. Good teams use them for late rounders and to find out info on other teams.

That's the same as reaching for need. Can't take one just to take one because they're expensive to sign. We already clearly need to add speed and have the slowest wr room there is.

I feel like he's different than most players we draft because he's only 21. Most raw "potential" dudes we draft are like 24.

We definitely still leak stuff like crazy. I thought we had gotten better but it was clear we hadn't the day before free agency when all the media was sayint all the moves we were going to make the next morning.

Yep, that's exactly what I've always thought. Legette is that type of player as well. A big guy that you throw deep 50/50 balls to when the modern NFL has deep shell coverage.

Just like all his other move and draft picks, he values positions like it's 1999.

I'm not a TMac fan but I just don't see Golden being worth 8. He makes some crazy catches but his tape is nowhere near his 40 time. If we take receiver at 8 I would rather it be a tight end. If we trade back then sure.

Hendrickson is a 43 defensive end. I don't think he could really play edge, so unless we are changing schemes I don't see it happening.

Jevon Holland was just signed by the giants for a good bit less.

Same as before. BPA. Free agents are to fill needs and draft is to add talent. Who we signed so far shouldn't affect draft at all. That's basically a textbook way to have a bad draft.

Vic Fangio is known for dropping more in to coverage. He basically forced the dink and dunk offense of the modern nfl, by focusing on more in shell coverage to stop deep shots.

Because Dan Morgan wants to build a team like he played on in 2000 and thinks it will still work..

I really dislike Dan Morgan the GM.

I feel most of the people here that think DK is a great true #1 receivers have only watched highlights or remember him from the combine.

He did double catch the really easy catch to be fair.

Ertz had 66 catches for 654 yards and 7tds last season. That's almost more than Tremble has had in his 4 seasons combined.

But then when Dan gets fired for being bad at his job, they will be the first ones piling on.

He definitely shouldn't be dragged down with the Dan stench.

Definitely agree on the DK standpoint. Seahawks fans don't even love him. He makes flash plays but he's not a top 10 wr or anything. The main thing I've noticed is our front office always prioritizes what receivers can do after they get the ball in their hands. I would MUCH rather prioritize what the receiver does before they get the ball in their hands.
