If we walk away with Parsons and Rousseau, extra 2nd round pick and a 1st rounder next year.....hard for me to complain. I want us to improve the team and there are plenty of routes to accomplish it.
What’s the difference between what you said and placing a number of Qb’s on a stacked Alabama roster? Jones stats this past year are just as good as what Tua put up in 2018, no?BYU played a crap schedule last year when Wilson put up those great stats. You could have put the majority of the college QB’s on BYU last year and they would have had similar stats to Wilson in the BYU offense against the lousy schedule they played. As far as Fields is concerned.Ohio State has produced exactly zero QB‘s who have come into the NFL and been any good.
I hope the Jets pick either Wilson or Fields because that will ensure they remain a non-factor in the AFC East for the foreseeable future. They would be better off taking a WR or Sewell and sticking with Darnold over taking either Wilson or Fields.
I'll be more disappointed if we make a pick at 3.You can insert any player you want not named in the OP. The point is more of are you more disappointed that Miami didn't take any of those players mentioned.
Is that why everyone was rooting for Houston to lose, to trade a top 5 pick? Serious question no trying to sound like a smartassI'll be more disappointed if we make a pick at 3.
The last WR drafted top 3 was Calvin Johnson. The last 4 selected top 5 are Corey Davis, Amari Cooper, Sammy Watkins and Justin Blackmon.Is that why everyone was rooting for Houston to lose, to trade a top 5 pick? Serious question no trying to sound like a smartass
To be fair, many were rooting for it in the hopes that it could be traded for a haul of picks from the start. Actually making a pick @3 was secondary.Is that why everyone was rooting for Houston to lose, to trade a top 5 pick? Serious question no trying to sound like a smartass
I understand that view, but I would point out that you are assuming that the player you want is a stud, and the player we actually pick isn't. You can point to the debacles of Dolphins past if you like, but this iteration hasn't made any real moves to attain skills yet, as that was not tge planned "order of battle".
TBH, I'm not sold on any of the three "top" reciever prospects as "studs". If history is any indication, and it usually is, one of the three will be a good solid starter. One will be MEH average, and one will be bustville.
The fact that two of the three are less than prototypical physically gives me even more reservations.
This goes right back to last year's QB debates. Anyone with eyes could see Tua wasn't the prototype QB, but then ppl acted surprised that he wasn't Justin Herbert. That's in no way a dig at Tua, but don't expect a physical monster player, when the player isnt that.
Neither Smith, nor Waddle are prototype "stud" specimens. They both may be good players, and do have some good attributes. Not go all in type attributes, IMO. They are probably both more suited to a primarily slot role.
Oddly enough, having said all that, the one most likely to bust is Chase, the one who is actually the most prototypical.
Don't know. Is it relavent?Who was the last Top 20 SEC WR to bust?
Well let's just say the jury is still out on Ruggs. I like the kid, but he hasn't proven his worth just yet. Again, he's a small speed receiver, and on average those don't fare as well as bigger guys in the NFL.Who was the last Top 20 SEC WR to bust?
Don't understand the 2nd parts of your post. However, I was thinking people were rooting to trade a top #2 pick and rooting for a 3-5 overall pick to draft an elite player.To be fair, many were rooting for it in tbe hopes that it could be traded for a haul of picks from the start. Actually making a pick @3 was secondary.
You may not agree, but its not as you are portraying it to be.
BYU played a crap schedule last year when Wilson put up those great stats.
