Like the infusion of young talent on the backend, let's hope someone get through to those two to just go and tackle. Delpit's deep ability is great though, and Diggs certainly could be a steal if he develops. Would hurt to lose out on these top wideouts, this draft is so deep but we need to land on a starter...but I do like the guys you got. I had Van & Gibson in one of my mocks too, would be great toys for the staff to play with and move all over. Both in formation and pre-snap movement. Tyler as your volume guy, and Devin as your down the field wideout. It'd be a solid group to grow with. Gordon does seem like the developmental QB they might like. Not sure I want to spend a 4th on one, but I'd rather spend a higher pick on a rosterable prospect than piss away one like last year. By this draft I assume we would've signed a LB and DLinemen in FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But both of their versatility makes it easier for them to work together. It would push out Greg Ward, but we should fling as much as we can at this problem and see what sticks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm interested in seeing how long guys like Reagor, Aiyuk, Mims, Hamler, Higgins, Shenault, Jefferson last. Like kind of that second tier of guys. Yeah it seems like the top 3 are all going pretty early. I think it's a fairly safe bet to say one of them will be there round 2. But they could all go top 50. 1/5 of the top 50 being Wrs, with another like 15 guys I'd be excited to get after that. We picked a great year to need to totally overhaul the position.

I'm really amped up for this draft, regardless of how it's presented due to coronavirus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would push out Greg Ward, but we should fling as much as we can at this problem and see what sticks I like Greg but there are holes in his game which explains why he pushed down the roster. Let them compete I say. Of course its hard to make 10 selections, as I said before I expect a couple trade ups/downs. I think the WRs selected bring something different and Gibson/Duvernay could double as return specialist. FA I would look at a LB and resigning 2yr Jenkins, 1yr Mills Not so sure about a DL Ridgeway preferably...Curry IMO played well with limited snaps, but they'll have Avery/Miller for a full offseason, Ostman coming back from injury 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, There was the list a couple weeks ago that was open routes that they were missed. Which was big for Reagor because of how much his QB sucked this year. But yeah I can’t find them.

Though if they really like him it makes sense to focus more on non-slot WRs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleBlueDon Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I really really like Van, but it's hard for me to commit to drafting a slot WR anytime before the 4th round with Greg Ward in the fold. He showed me a lot and has proven to have built a nice rapport with Carson. If we take 2 WR, I'd prefer them both to be outside WRs. If we do draft a slot guy, I'd like for him to have inside/outside versatility. Van might idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't say whether or not I'd consider him a body catcher, I did pay that close of attention to that aspect when I watched. He is a body catcher and all body catchers have questionable hands., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninjapirate Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 with the assistant coaches not going to meet players does that help us out because we actually have to listen to scouts exclusively and we wont care if the coach liked what he ordered at the restaurant he took the kid? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a positive in that the team is more likely to go with the game tape instead of drafting guys because they believe they are "high character" people.
