Striker Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 18 minutes ago, Leader said: Now...now....before the "aint-pundit" bias kicks in......he's right in one way - a way that I've been harping on for a long, time.....that GB's let the WR room get wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too thin.......and as a consequence (or a bad habit....) our QB had eyes for one guy only....or primarily. We lacked the wide ranging passing attack - like the other teams Cowherd mentions - have. So - once our one and only WR gets to stratospheric salary levels........what were we stuck on doing? Pay the man. Well.....apparently....the man had other ideas.....and, even though it's gonna FORCE GB to make some quick adjustments and decisions - I can live with it. This isn't just "anti-pundit" though. This is Colin Cowherd, who is the the subbasement that rotted through the bottom of the barrel. Might be one step up from Skip Bayless. Maybe. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there are MUCH more valuable (for the money) options available for that role in our offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minnypackerfan Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 2 minutes ago, Leader said: My knee jerk is to say "I agree"....but is putting money towards MVS worse than putting it towards JuJu? I honestly cant say cause I cant gauge JuJu's impact....but I've seen MVS for a few years now.....and while he's made strides - confidence that he could be "the all around guy" is lacking. I think we can draft an MVS replacement in the 2nd round this year. This is a deep WR draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arthur Penske Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 is Metcalff really worth a first? I've seen that around here. Cooper got a 5th? I'd part with like a 2nd for DK. But I want to hang onto both those 1sts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loved that dude! @Arthur Penske BTW, I didn't mean to imply it would be a huge deal or anything. Also, who knows if he makes it through the current deal. I am going off topic here, my bad!

Wouldn't be surprised at all if he had his sights on a different place last year. Especially if there's any sort of truth to him turning down a similar deal from us.

He's actually well connected in the sports world though. How about you? You talk to a lot of GMs and Agents do ya? In touch with a wide array of sports journalists? I love it when people who spit out countless opinions on social media - jump all over somebody with notoriety when they state their - as if (for no known reason...) theirs is a lesser one.

Fitzgerald had three straight 1k years from 32 to 34. Driver had 1k years from ages 29 through 34. Jerry Rice went 1.5k, 1.4k, 1.8k, 1.2k yards (31 to age 34) and produced several more 1k years until he turned 40. Marvin Harrison had 1.3k yards at age 34 (the Super Bowl year). Owens had that monster year for Dallas at age 34 (1.3k yards, 15 TDs). So...not impossible but generally it seems to be Hall of Fame or near HoF players doing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
