I like Mack a lot, but I think they need a lot more help on the offensive side than defensive side. People will obviously be keying in a trying to take away Gordon, it'd be nice to have another weapon. Some will say Cameron, but it seemed like they would key on him some games, and then forget to throw to him towards the end of the year.Commander of Awesome;1586045 wrote:Mack, Barr
Would've been 07 Pats with Welker's 112 catches and Moss, but they lost. I agree that Watkins would be fun to have but I'm not sure it would translate to playoff success.

That's not a model that wins titles.
Falcons, lions, bengals, Vikings... The list goes on and on with teams that failed with that model.GOONx19;1586151 wrote:Would've been 07 Pats with Welker's 112 catches and Moss, but they lost.

All those teams also have something very important that we don't, a QB. We better not fuck around with that spot.like_that;1586156 wrote:Falcons, lions, bengals, Vikings... The list goes on and on with teams that failed with that model.
If we go defense with the 4th pick it would be clowney. That's the only defensive player I see us taking there. Otherwise it will be qb or Watkins. I truly believe if clowney is there he will be the pick. Then garapollo with the 2nd first. I'm honestly hoping for bridgewater to fall to us. A lot of people question whether he can make nfl reads but he had complete control of louisvilles offense. He made all the audibles and pretty much called the plays. He is a lot smarter than people give him credit for.Commander of Awesome;1586188 wrote:All those teams also have something very important that we don't, a QB.

It concerns me that nothing has been resolved with Mack and Ward yet. I'd love to get Byrd, but I would hope we can keep Ward as well. They are different positions, so with the cap space we have, I don't see why that wouldn't be a possibility. Who knows what the plan is, though. Obviously, Farmer has more than 2014 in mind, so I guess that's why he's making the calls and we aren't!shook_17;1586245 wrote:Sounds like Hadens contract is all most done. Per Tony Grossi.
Also Bryd not expected to be tagged or resigned by Bills. So how about a Bryd FS Calvin Pryor (Pick 26) with Sam Shield as CB#2 Haden CB#1 and Skrine in the slot. If the Browns get a chance at Bryd Ward is gone IMHO.
Garrapollo is really growing on me. Bortles, Manziel or Bridgewater. Robinson or Mathews at 4 if they like Garrapollo in the second round.
You do realize that it's Byrd, right? Not Bryd lol... Just an FYI hahashook_17;1586256 wrote:I mean there is really so many ways this team can go this year. So many options. But if we sign Bryd Id be very surprised if the sign Ward. I don't see them putting that much money in two saftey positions, I just don't. Especially with contract extensions coming up for Haden, Gordon, Sheard, Cameron. I fully expect the Browns to sign Mack, from what I saw they were waiting for Mack to get back in the states from his mission trip.
I see TJ Ward as a back up plan if they cant sign Bryd. If Bryd doesn't come here I expect them to throw all the money at TJ to keep him here. But Ill take a ballhawk saftey over a saftey that plays in the box.
Of everything I put in there, thats what you take away. Solid way to contribute.Dr. KnOiTaLL;1586307 wrote:You do realize that it's Byrd, right? Not Bryd lol... Just an FYI haha
Haha, I contribute a lot! I didn't have anything to argue against your post, so I suppose I could've put "I agree" but that wouldn't have been a huge contribution either, so I instead decided to correct your spelling error lol. No hard feelings, good sir.shook_17;1586333 wrote:Of everything I put in there, thats what you take away. Solid way to contribute.
Some said this current crop of quarterbacks reminded them of the 2011 class. Six of the first 12 teams in the order needed quarterbacks that year. Tennessee, Jacksonville and Minnesota reached for shakier prospects between the eighth and 12th choices. All three teams got burned, unless Jake Locker rights his career in Tennessee. Arizona and San Francisco also needed quarterbacks that year. Instead of reaching for one, the Cardinals took Patrick Peterson fifth and the 49ers took Aldon Smith seventh. Neither player filled the QB void, but both became Pro Bowl-caliber contributors in short order.
A look at some of the other non-QBs taken early in that draft drives home warnings about drafting the position over the player. Von Miller, A.J. Green, Tyron Smith, J.J. Watt and Robert Quinn became dominant players.

Isn't that what you would do when trying to make a point? If you don't think there's a franchise QB in this draft, wouldn't YOU look for drafts that also didn't have franchise QBs to make your argument?se-alum;1586522 wrote:So basically they just picked out a draft that fit the point they wanted to make.
