I know this is only one site, but interesting I thought...  So far it looks like we killed it according to them, it will be interesting to see what grades SI gives us.

WR/TE, Michigan
Funchess can threaten a defense from the slot to the flex to the seam, but he'll have to play to his size before he can take over the NFL.

LB, Washington
Thompson is one of the draft's most versatile athletes, so much so that he was drafted by the Boston Red Sox back in 2012.

Here is a link to the full article, Funchess is ahead of alot of the WR's that went ahead of him..

Funchess is an athlete and moves well like I've said before.

When watching cut ups Jaelen Strong looked stiff and very choppy, took false steps as well. Funchess is fluid and smooth, runs a nice double move. If Funchess starts to constantly use his body and size then look out!

Once I saw the trade up, I was hoping for either Funchess or Fisher

People hating on Funchess kill me. Its like the 16 year old girl who gets the new car she wanted for her birthday, but then bursts into tears when its not the color they asked for.

I'm not hating on Funchess. The day before the draft I actually thought about us drafting him and what our offense would look like with all of those big receivers. I just don't know if I like the trade that we did to get Funchess. I won't say it was a horrible decision untill we find out what kind of player Funchess is but I feel we may of gave up too much and how do we know if he would have been drafted before our second round pick?

    • Because being a pauper in the NFL is still making a king's ransom. NFL vet min is roughly 18x the median salary in the U.S.
    • At some point I sense it's gonna create some hate and locker room cancer between these cap hogs and the rest of the players. When the top 6 or 7 players take 80% of the cap, the other 40 plus guys are gonna get pissed off, especially when they're still only winning 5 or 6 games. Why put everything on the line to play with guys who are only in it for themselves? 
    • I am just spitballing here--let it play out and I will go to bed: Let's say Mahome's contract comes due and he insists on $100m per season.  Is there a team that would find the money to pay it?  Would KC? It was in 2015 (I think) when Cam was getting $20m and it was hard to grasp.  In the past decade, the price of a franchise QB has tripled.  Then the next QB bases his contract on the Mahomes deal.  The trend has been the last QB contract is the highest.  I see nothing to discourage that trend--Greed can destroy a league.  Personally, I don't watch baseball any more, and the NBA has a small group of about 8 teams that appear on national TV and they have players who make more than some eastern block countries.  Ticket prices go up---and we are headed for pay-per-view very soon across the board-
