Ginn isn't a slot guy and PR ability really isn't a factor in the top 10. The player you draft there you hope will never play ST. And it's not like losing Ginn is losing a good PR that had an impact we need to replace anyways. He was a JAG returner last year. 

At least he wasn't muffing punts like I became accustomed to only a short while ago. I don't want to go back to holding my breath on every punt Bersin or whoever attempts to field. I took comfort knewing he was going to at least catch it. Need a real returner in the draft somewhere and from FA.

McCaffrey would help a bunch. That's all I'm saying. Dude is special and would play behind another dude who is special.

I think the only way we draft McCaffrey is if we trade with someone for a later first round pick and an extra second rounder.  And I don't see that happening.

The fact that we haven't even been rumored a safety in free agency despite the availability of a good number of them makes me think we are set on a safety in one of the first 2 rounds. With all the talent on the market it makes no sense to not throw out some feelers on these immediate upgrades

I'm not disagreeing with you, but it has been Gettleman's strategy to just plug safety with cheap veterans who are either on a prove it contract or are savvy.

They made an offer to Barry Church.

They made an offer to Barry Church.

And that was over before free agency even started. He couldn't be the only one worth an offer to, right? This makes even less sense to me. Offer contract during the tampering period, lose out, then go silent at the position although there are other comparable options? It's like we don't know what we want.

I'm dying for Jamal Adams, but I have no delusions of him falling to us easily, even after the events of FA today.

I can't imagine we're legit hoping to land adams or obi in the first two rounds. It's not like other teams won't grab them.

I would say its 80% likely we draft him at 8.

That assumes news of other discussion will come out. That doesn't always happen.

The Panthers could have been in touch with others as well without us knowing. They're very secretive about these things.

I agree. Just saying Ginn walking doesn't affect it. And not at 8.
