This list was only for defensive tackles and wide receivers, it even says so if you read the actual article. They were making a point that WR may be the position drafted.

SO why only include 2 positions? Seems to me if you want to make a point you need to use context. Sure WR may be drafted along with just about every other position besides center, QB,RB, TE, safety and special teams. Seems a long way to go to say very little.

I did twice trying to get the convoluted point. As I said in a much earlier post, when you start an article talking about going to an Australia zoo to see elephants it only will go downhill from there. Mix in some PCP dust in that next bowl and you might see some elephants as well.

I did. Smoke a bowl for further clarity and then reply................

So the writer is writing about the current wide receivers on the roster then he shows how much interest the team has had in the top ten receivers in this years draft. You're expecting him to talk about quarterback, running back, and tight end when it is an article about wide receivers? Then he compares draft visits and such of those top ten receivers with the top ten defensive tackles who in his words, "a position most fans think is dire" or the top position that most fans think the team will pick. The OP who quoted the link failed to realize this as you have so I will smoke a bowl on this fine Sunday afternoon.

And as I said earlier, interest is relative to who else we are looking at and whether we are wanting a receiver or just covering our bases if we decide in the unlikely event we might trade down.

Many fans who know our real needs versus perceived needs and listen to the coaches don't think DT or WR are dire needs.

Since DT is not a dire need but a luxury IMO for a unique talent then comparing WR to DT is a bunny trail unless we discuss corner or DE which are also considered big needs by the team as well. Plus how many WRs are we bringing in who could go in lower rounds or are we only looking at first and second rounders.

The article was incomplete and surely didn't convince me we are likely to go WR. But hey I am sure it is me...................

Defensive tackle has been the top position of need on this board all off-season so do not tell me any differently. Go back to my previous posts, you will see that I am in the minority when picking something other than defensive tackle at pick 9. The article was as complete as it needed to be, it had one point and it delivered that point. Wide receiver may or may not be the pick but the article shows stronger interest at receiver than defensive tackle for the top players at their positions.

    • If Canales has helped Bryce a “poo ton” and this is what we have then what’s the fuging point? And the offense wasn’t humming with Dalton in there either, except against the raiders who’ll likely be firing their coach after this season.  XL is probably the fourth best looking receiving option on the team right now behind thielen, Coker, and sanders. I don’t think anyone would disagree with that. Who cares about total receiving yards when everyone else has missed time and there’s like 180 yards of receiving a game.  and lmao they were “believing” shut the fug up. They lost and for the most part those games were all the defense shutting down the other team. The chiefs turned around and gave up an actual impressive stat line to Aiden O’Connell and I not even the most delusional raiders fans think that means anything. Bryce did nothing against the eagles, the Bucs are a mash unit, and any one of us could have done that Bryce did against the giants and saints.  And as far as who they’d get, they didn’t have any trouble hiring the guy you’re tripping over yourself to defend. They also could have hired Dan Quinn, who’s actually succeeding with a young qb.  And people are acting like the risk of getting paid for not working for five years is a negative. Canales is going to spend the next half a decade getting paid to watch porn in his Bible camp office.
    • the Dallas game definitely quelled the hype. his biggest issue will always be his size, and that shows when he gets sacked. he's simply not big or strong enough to protect the ball. even in the KC game, he fumbled it on a basic sack and thank god icky landed on it. INT's are going to happen, most fans don't understand that tipped balls and wrong routes account for most interceptions. but the wet-bar-of-soap type fumbles upon contact are a huge reg flag. the common theme with players like Darnold and Mayfield who previously played for us and are now excelling makes me want to practice patience more when it comes to the QB position. I think Bryce bought himself another season, perhaps with more weapons. I do like the idea of adding a QB whether that's a FA or mid round rookie. if the same mistakes occur next season and we see no further growth or most importantly, wins, then it will be time to move on. just a quick reminder though, football is not an individual sport. QB is just one position, albeit the most important. 
    • There's some big assumptions in here - first, I think Canales HAS helped Bryce a poo ton. To pretend he hasn't is asinine. Has he fixed him?  I mean, the dude looks like he could perhaps be a backup or low-end starter now, whereas he looked like he didn't belong in the NFL a year ago. You're talking about a coach that brought one of the worst NFL QBs of all time to a point where he may actually be a low-end starter. That IS impressive. Second, the bolded. Come on - given the offense, the dude is far from "trending towards bust." He definitely needs work but he's shown an impressive ability to get open. He's contributing to an anemic offense. The dude is our leading receiver (though he'll be #2 in yardage by end of season by a little, as Thielen does better per game).  As to his coaching, he had this team competing and believing against 3 of the better teams in the NFL, despite the lack of talent, and despite our QB situation.  Yes, things fell apart vs DAL, and he was outcoached. But that will happen with young coaches IMO.  I don't think it indicates he cant' be better. The idea of "pulling off the bandage" is ridiculous. Who would want to coach here if we fired this guy after one season?
