63 Receptions 931 yards and 7 touchdowns, That's better than any WR on our roster. You can say he's played one more game, but you have to remind yourself he didn't play a lot at the beginning of the year.

Ron Rivera attended his pro day, Our WR coach threw to him!!!, He was in our own back yard. How could we miss so badly. He was a steal in the 3rd round. I would have taken him second over KK.

And yes this is very relevant given how much we complain about WRs here. He was right there begging us to take him and we passed. Thank god the answer was on the roster......until they got cut: Gettis and AE. O and Mr. two catch Hixon.

Early morning rant over

To Gettleman, I don't know that it mattered who was sitting there with that 2nd round pick... unless his name was Jerry Rice, he wasn't going to take him over KK. Gettleman loves the trenches and felt that had to be addressed immediately, and reinforce it. So he took two big guys back to back, and look at the difference they have made.

Now, our long neglected interior line is in great shape for years to come, so this draft, if he ignores WR, then you'll have reason to complain.

You really think he would have half those stats in this offense?

Phillip Rivers throws him open with anticipation bc of Allens good route running. Cam still needs work on that part.

He is good. I was one who was put off by his injury and workout.

If anything Kenny Stills was there in the 4th, and yes he was a known product too.

I think KK gets taken over Allen still in a redraft by the Panthers...Stills over Kugbilla? Gotta be Stills.

I think Alshon would have been the better receiver for Cam...o well we all can dream I guess.

our WR are not the problem, in fact they are playing good. the reason our numbers are not high is we are spreading the ball around perfectly. That is why it become hard for the opposing defense to know what is coming. If we had him, here he would have less yard then smith olsen and lafell. those guys are doing a good job. Also our scheme is not the old chud scheme of chucking it downfeild either so with that and the almost even spread of the ball no one has great numbers.  We are getting wins we just dont have the explosive system to highlight them. Now we do need to draft a legit number 1 cause smitty is not as good as he once was. but even in this system dont expect great numbers from any new wr. untill we have the OL to let cam get more time for downfeild attacks we will continue to run the dink and dunk with heavy run game.

I would not swap Star or Short for Keenan Allen. We did not have a third rounder.   His speed was suspect, which is why he dropped on many boards.  He is benefiting from a lack of other receivers.  However, he is a steal for a third rounder.

 

Nothing against him--he is good.  But we made the commitment to solidify our defense.  We did that.  Are you suggesting that we pass on Short?  I think, in a year or 2, Short will be getting 6-8 sacks a year from the DT spot.

 

This year's draft is better at WR.  I expect a WR, CB, or OT to be our first pick.  We will bring in help at WR.  (I am not as certain as most of you that we re-sign Brandon Lafell)

      Chiefs vs Panthers

      For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend.

      If you wanted Danny Dimes here’s the chance

      You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.

      Predictions for Brooks debut

      I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
