Why is no one considering double dip at WR?

Thielen is running on E and we really dont know what Johnson has left in the tank he didnt light it up last year at all. ISM is not the sam caliber wr as anyone there in the second round. Mingo could well be another LSU wr bust who shall not be named. best not to depend on whats on the roster now in a historically deep wr class thats strong at one of our biggest weaknesses.

Yeah I want to take one, just not necessarily two guys in the 30's if BPA is at a different position. I'm cool with taking another WR at 65 or in the 100's if 33/39 is BPA elsewhere. The same argument can be made for CB or Edge rusher, there's a lot more WR's than CB's and Edge guys in this draft so if one of those is BPA in the 30's it would be hard to pass up

It’s really the only one that matters. No raw 2nd round edge rusher is going to do much in the grand scheme of things for us. CB? Sign Gilmore if it’s that big of a deal

This organization needs to find out what they have in Bryce this season. They absolutely should be double dipping at WR. If Bryce ain’t it then at least the next guy has a fighting chance 

This is an offensive league. You’re never going to have a complete team. You’re always going to have a weakness. Every year the league changes rules in hopes of more points being scored. Our offense was downright awful last year and people still want to spend picks on defense… I don’t get it. 

Probably because half of our starting defence was traded and / or walked in FA.

No room to take two WR's IMO, with Mingo and ISM locked up for next year. We need the center, LB, CB, or edge more.

think your confusing jags for franchise or game changing players. What did Mingo or ISM do last year to show you they can elevate bryce young to be on par with Stroud or even Richardson for that matter? Nothing..  you can't go into the season saying hey we got ISM and Mingo we are ready to roll.

No room? We have the league’s worst offense We got zero long term offensive skill position players on the roster.  We have a huge investment we are trying to save at QB.  Fixing the O should be priority 1, 2 and 3. 

Mingo and ISM combined for 450 yards and no TDs.  And there is no guarantee they are better next year. 

the highlights to our roster are a WR that can’t run and had really bad per touch production we forced the ball to and a disgruntled WR the rest of the league didn’t want…..whose former team has a track record of getting rid of dudes who fall off a cliff after doing so. 

we got room

ISM won’t stop us from drafting a 2nd WR if value is there. Honestly we are probably carrying an extra WR with the new kickoff rule. 

Yep, past 2 years combined he doesn’t even have 70 rec yards added up.  He is a body with a pulse. 

the offense was so bad and so predictable that a surprise end around run a couple times has some folks thinking this dude is legit.   The math ain’t mathing.

We need great players period and we are void on both sides of the ball. I would rather have an above average DE/CB than a below average WR. I do hope the BPA is a WR though.

no one in that room is good enough reason for us not to draft 2 good WRs from this class who could be long term contributors.

      My one and only mock draft

      By ECHornet · Posted

      Walker/Stewart>Mykel on EDGE for me I’d still like to add TMac.    The only two WRs we have contracted beyond this year are XL and Coker (ERFA). Moving forward with TMac and those two feels much better.

      The trade below a few years ago was so bad and in favor of the Ravens, tf was Arizona doing Cardinals receive: Marquise Brown and 3rd round pick  Ravens receive: 23rd overall pick

      keaton is a former Catamount.  The list I saw had only 2--Sanker and Emmanwori.  But I do recall hearing about Bowman. The theory that we are looking for specific hybrid safeties is upheld by this.  Keaton fits the "type" who can play zone or deep and in the box.  "He's a physical player with a high motor and a nose for the football. He has a good understanding of zone coverage and can play in the box as a force defender. Keaton is a leader and has earned a single-digit jersey number at Temple, a tradition reserved for team leaders." At WCU, he averaged 6.5 tackles per game, leading the team before transferring. Sanker has special teams abilities and a high football IQ.  He can cover TEs and RBs and keeps the play in front.  He would be a nice fit as a depth player.  I did not know they met with Bowman at the SR bowl.  He is more of a free safety who struggles in tackling/run support, but that is not to say he is not versatile within his capabilities. Stark is a SS who is a brutal hitter, but I don't see his hybrid qualities--they met with him at the Combine when everyone was in the building, but that was nearly 2 months ago and I don't think there has been contact since. Emmanwori is who they would love to have in my opinion.  NFL Draft Buzz:  "His ability to play in the box, handle man coverage responsibilities, and deliver bone-crushing hits makes him an ideal fit for defenses that ask their safeties to wear multiple hats." So it seems they are looking for a type.  The Keaton pick is intriguing to me because he is a sleeper who would clearly be there in round 5 or later.  They seem attracted to his characteristics, and he is a thumper who can play deep.  To me, the fact that they want 2 hybrid safeties of a certain type is rather obvious.  Maybe I am forcing a round peg into a square hole, but I love trying to see what skillsets teams value to guess draft picks.
