Anyone know XL’s drop % rate?

Wide receivers, even the great ones (and they are rare) can get real expensive, real quick and are involved in say 40-70% of a team's plays, based on that team's particular style of offense.

An edge rusher, DT or LB can very often be involved in 100% of the plays on defense. 

It's a much better, more cost effective pick to grab one of those defenders (who are easier to evaluate and plug into a system) than to spin out yet another pick on a wide receiver. We're fair to middling, maybe even good with receivers right now.

And ignoring a need in a draft might just be the dumbest way to work a draft. Really, just think about what you said.

And great defensive players are ALWAYS available in free agency, because teams usually prioritize getting their QB and WRs locked up and never hit the open market

Use our cap space 100% on defense, get a few impact players that way, and then you draft T-Mac, the best player in this draft.

You will never find a player like him hit open free agency, it’s the only way to get a true stud outside #1 WR.

Dont over think it

Draft Tetairoa McMillan no matter what

Drafting for need with a top 5 pick is dumb.

 

We have an entire draft to fix the defense. If Tmac is the best player on the board you take him

Yes, if he's the best player on the board.  I think some people may be over-valuing him a bit.

Sorry, we've got to build the defense. Best edge rusher in the draft or if there's a Luke Kuechly clone MLB out there.

 

 Not this year. LB is crazy high unless you can guarantee he’s exactly like Kuechly which is impossible. Also, edge rusher is a no go in this draft. There are some DT/CBs that could go that high but there is no one close to a Bosa, Garrett, Hutchinson, etc.

If I had a hope, it would be somehow lucking into Travis Hunter to play CB and use occasionally on offense. Graham at DE opposite Brown could be fun as well. He's the only DL I’ve seen consistently at the top of the rankings. CBS had him 3rd preseason and 4th mid season so he’s been consistently at the top, which is nice to see. He also just turned 21 in September, which I’m a fan of rather than picking so many older rookies that still have to develop.

If anything he’s being undervalued

If he played for a big time program that was in the playoff hunt, he’d be viewed as a generational talent, but being on an awful Arizona team, he’s being g overlooked by most people.

Best offensive player in the draft regardless of position

[Basbear]

Hes a rookie.

 

He needs to buy and use a juggs machine until his hands bleed....

With his feet nailed to the floor. Just about everything he misses is when he leaves his feet unnecessarily. IIRC there was one in the back of the EZ early in the year that he did the same thing. 

I think his hands are good, he just has that proclivity to jump and make it a harder catch.

You do realize there is more than 1 pick in a draft right?

 

I said draft Tmac with our 1st as he will likely be the best player available as things stand now. We can draft for needs the rest of the draft lol

I'm standing by what I've said.

BPA as long as it's an edge or LB.  Also, I don't think we picking top 5

What elite edge rusher is worth a top 8 pick? I don’t see any. Give me T-MAC or the Will Johnson 

[MartyClemons]

Yeah I’m on board with drafting TMac. His catch radius was ridiculous when I seen him play. 
 

I feel like we could find production on defense in R2 or R3

[CRA]

Give me the Penn St kid Carter in the first, Clemson's Carter at LB in the 2nd. 

We just drafted XL, Saunders and added Coker last draft.  We also added Brooks and just paid Hubbard. 

We need defensive help.
