Fudge it....Trade up for Sammy watkins.

Yeah you need a new O-line. Run blocking is solid but your pass protection was almost as bad as ours. Cam can get pretty scary when he has time.

We have zero run blocking. Our pass protection sucks....and that is what they do best

This is why I think we tag and trade Hardy. May be able to get somewhere in the teens and get Ebron and then draft a WR like Robinson, Matthews, Benjamin or Moncrief at the end of the first.

This offseason has the potential to really set us up for the future

ne of the top pass rushers in the game at 25 is worth trading to get Eric Ebron? I'm going to ignore that comment.

DG has his work cut out to be able to keep Hardy, Keuchly, and Cam...but losing any of those three I assure you is not in the plans. There might be some surprising changes this offseason but Hardy won't be one of them. Neither will trading for Sammy Watkins.

Stay put...draft KB or a big TE and be done with it.

No. Ginn isn't a Watkins. Just bc they are both fast doesn't make them the same

Watkins isnt overly big or physical... hes a kick returner/ weapon

 

it takes more than a 40 time to be a stud #1 WR

 

id consider him if he fell to our pick... but trade up for him? no chance

KB most likely will be gone by our pick.

We can't afford to keep Hardy, pay Cam, Keek, Stewart, CJ, re sign Gross, Mitchell, and get decent FA's. unless of course you know something I don't.

So in your ideal world, we put all of our eggs in one basket (DL). Then when the DL struggles like today, and Kap is able sit back and pick apart our secondary (which won't be able to get any better if we break the bank for Hardy) we're screwed. Need more balance.

And drafting Ebron would be us addressing a need while not having to spend big money. Can also draft a DE with one of the extra picks for a fraction of the price.

I'm guessing you were a big fan of Hurney? Good teams know when you get rid of there players and sell high. Hardy's value will never be higher.

Try to read some of this and not ignore it, you might actually learn something.

Good franchises know when to let players go, Pitty wasn't going to over pay for Wallace. And if it wasn't for Haley, they would have been in the playoffs again this year. Hurney tried to keep everyone and this is why we are in this cap space mess/hell.

I'm guessing you've never watched Watkins play?

6'1", 205lbs. Will try and run through corners for extra yards. This kid is alot more complete than you guys give him credit for.

He literally showcased all of his talents against Ohio State. Couldn't have had a better last college game before the draft.

ya 6'1 is big in college.... its average at best for a number 1 WR in today's NFL.

 

6 of the top 7 NFL receivers this year (yards) are 6'3 or bigger

 

smitty was the exception to the rule, you need a big man at WR

Oh really

 

You know how tall the man that torched our defense today?

While I think Sammy Watkins will easily be the best WR of his class, giving up too much to trade up would be risky. The important thing is using the first round pick on a WR, period.

 

The top three WRs are Watkins, Mike Evans from Texas A&M, and Marquis Lee from USC. These seem like the only guys really worth a 1st rounder. If two of these guys are gone by the middle of the draft, then it would take giving a 3rd round pick to move up. That's going by last year's draft.
