Gettlemen continues to get criticism for not bringing in a WR

[AceBoogie]

The only way we could have gotten Star and Hopkins would have been giving up several picks.

You laughably talk about Gettleman being no different from Hurney but want more idiotic trades?

If you make a trade to land Star and Hopkins in the same draft it's not idiotic. Some people including players on the falcons thought the Julio trade was idiotic. Some people think that the Vikings trading back in to get Cordarelle Patterson was idiotic. ATL made the right move and only time will tell with the Vikings.

Off the top of my head the ones available that I would look at next year are...

Hakeem Nicks

James Jones

Jacoby Jones

Golden Tate

Mario Manningham

Jerome Simpson

Jeremy Maclin

Out of those listed how many are #1s?

3 or 4.

Get Royal this year, Nicks next year and Smith can play in the slot for the rest of his career until he retires.

That trade was and still is idiotic.

All those picks they gave up could have went towards improving their aging shitty defense.

[AceBoogie]

How could we get a LT in next years draft? Because most likely we would've had to trade our 2014 1st to get back into this years 1st...

The Vikings got back in with a 2nd,3rd,4th and 7th.

We could have gotten back in with a 2nd this year a 2nd next year and a 4th.

They were one game away from the Super Bowl and had the best record in football wouldn't call it idiotic. I know we are suppose to hate those guys but their clearly doing something right. O yea they surrounded their qb with weapons.

Three picks for one player by a new GM who inherits a huge mess. Sounds like a winning strategy.

I'd like to pick up Royal. And i think that with that addition we could have a solid WR corp. But i'd be willing to bet the Ravens may try and trade for him. They've been reported as being intrested in trading for a Vet WR.

He inherited a huge mess cap wise not player wise. The foundation is set.

Many of their wins came down to the wire. How did that work out for them in the playoffs with that defense?

Once we make it to the playoffs or have a damn winning season we can start criticizing Super Bowl contenders and playoff teams.

LOL...they traded all that to move up to the bottom of the first.

We would've had to find a taker and get in front of the Texans. And we could've done that with two 2nds!?!?!

Remember that trade we made to get into the 2nd for E.Brown? We'd have to trade a 1st OR multiple picks... multiple as in 4-5 picks.

Either way, not very smart.

We came within one first down of sweeping said "playoff team" and "superbowl contender".

Stop posting.
