agreed with all of that. with williams, you are getting someone who has the reputation of being one of the toughest receivers out there. what you are getting is a guy who gets hurt a lot and who just isn't all that productive. what the jets paid for is the reputation. they aren't really paying attention. they are just throwing everything in the fire hoping that they'll get cooking up something good for the year. what's most likely going to happen is they just get burned.

Sorry, but our record drafting 2nd round WRs means nothing. The further back you go, the more ridiculous the concept is. New GM, new HC. New crop of WRs. Scouting department will have cycled through quite a lot of people over the years. History is no indication of future events here.

From where the jets hope they are. I expect them to do what the jets do and fall on their face in spectacular fashion. But they are throwing everything in it because they know they won't ever have as good as a window as this year. They have no future.

Mcconkey is super quick, incredible routes, and catches frickin everything. And you can line him up everywhere. He's the reliable guy you want for your QB. But I like Pearsall for the same reasons and just about as much. Leggette is could be a big fast stuff that fights for everything. Comparisons with Metcalf are on point. With that said, it could just be the idea of Leggette rather than the actuality of him. He only has one good year of production. He could be great or he could be Mingo.... someone that you keep looking at and wondering if he will ever be as good as you think he could be

We didn't want to join that dance. Wouldn't be worth it.

If the money was going to be there, his interest was going to be there. We didn't want to overpay for a question mark.

Too much?

He's going to make a lot of noise, get drafted, and then.....

Would this work?

I can roll with this. I want so badly to win a lot of games this year, but I need to be content with just trending towards better and building something sustainable.

Lol I turned over every pick.

got a bunch of picks from the rams...or chargers. they all look alike.

trade back for more picks or maybe a shuffling that allows us to trade one of our later picks for an earlier one...that's acceptable as well. i just want to make sure that we don't lose any of the number of picks we have. keep the same number or get more.

i get told i'm pretty dramatic by my kids all the time.

i'd be very comfortable with that.

tell me about it. i mean can you do that? then i guess you just go BPA the rest of the way. soooo tempting to take advantage of something like that. i mean with those top three picks you're set for a good few years.

Him and Baker I keep forgetting about. Those two and Burton are going to be falling through some cracks and wind up helping out some teams.

boom or bust is how i'm viewing him as well. he will either be absolutely fantastic or just kind of fizzle. for some reason i'm just not 100% convinced on him(maybe 80-85%?). now if he's the guy we take in the 2nd round i'm still going to be stoked, but there's this seed of doubt in my head concerning him. i'd actually feel more comfortable with someone like pearsall. i'm thinking the guys that i feel the most confident in are MHjr, Nabers, Odunze, Thomas, AD Mitchell, Coleman, and Pearsall. I think those guys are the safest bets. The guys i feel really good but not great about are McConkey, Corley, Leggette, Wilson, X Worthy, Baker, Polk, and Burton (not in order, btw) For some reason Troy Franklin, Washington, and Dez Walker just have me a little skittish. Not sure why on any of them. These are all gut checks that i've noticed when i'm doing my mocks. I don't have anything statistically or quantitatively to base this on.

this one started off nicely, but it didn't take long for it to lean towards meh. the trick is knowing where positions you would like to take care of will fall off a cliff. there might be a guy or two you like at a certain spot, but if you are committed to getting the best players possible for a few positions, you have to know what you have available at each, because if you aren't paying attention you'll wind up with a whole pile of blah after your two or three good picks.
