Anbody else the the pattern here ? Why should they have been in the NFC championship game?

OtherwiseHappyinLife Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 57 minutes ago, bitonti said: Douglas does like WR, he takes one in every draft Your prediction is probably closer to the truth than the "they stay at 10 and take Olu" chalk predictions who do you think the Jets want? Rome? David Bakhtiari signing incoming, Carter Warren and Max Mitchell share the backup jobs. I'd be lying if I said I knew the WRs well. But I do love data and the data has shown that first round WRs have an incredibly high hit rate over the last 6 or so years. ... especially ones from the SEC and schools like Ohio State and USC. The data also shows that they are ready to be major contributors in year 1. OL on the other hand is much more of a crapshoot and tends to take longer for players to succeed. There have been several like Sewell, Slater, and Darrisaw who are instantly successful but on average it might take a couple years to hit stride. IF the top 3 WRs are off the table at #10, trade back a bit and pick up a 2nd rounder and grab a WR and OL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They outplayed and blew the game to SF. You know my point, they had a very good season and it's no coincidence that they didn't miss a beat with all the crap they threw to the curb, most of which we were dumb enough to pick up.

Joe Douglas could say the same thing 🤣 🤣 I think he relies on his scouts to do the "heavy lifting". Bro probably spends most of his time at the office watching tape on offensive linemen.

I understand what you were trying to say but I disagree with the last part. GB did not outplay the Niners. And they lost.

Barry McCockinner Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 we paid big assets to bring in Aaron F'n Rodgers to take a shot at winning a Lombardi.

mrcoops Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 The more I think about it, the more I think our next WR addition will be a guy known by three initials. Either OBJ or MVS will be a Jet. Not my preference, but I feel that's where it's headed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took your question as seriously as the rest of your response. JD has failed to upgrade the WR position after acquiring Aaron Rodgers. Are you going to deny that? He has missed on several opportunities. Opportunities still exist but will require him to give up real assets. You don't go trade serious assets and pay a bunch of money to Aaron F'n Rodgers at the end of his career and then sit around and go bargain basement hunting for the rest of the roster. It's moronic and enraging. Hopefully he steps it up. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With a new system being installed, I think it would be important to keep a primary target around to get the installs going on the right foot. New system with new targets all in a single offseason would make things more difficult than it needs to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New system with new targets all in a single offseason would make things more difficult than it needs to be. One-offs like Jerry Rice are always possible. But if you study the history of WRs -- even very good ones -- few continue to produce at a high-level in through their age-32 season. Herbert would have good chemistry with any quality WR if you give him enough practice reps. I wouldn't write off Keenan Allen entirely, but based on historical data, he has maybe 1 (or max 2) productive years left, and the cliff could come at any moment.

Barry McCockinner Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 32 minutes ago, bicketybam said: Can you share a trade proposal that would be acceptable to you? Keenan Allen is 31 (will be 32 when the season starts) is on the last year of his deal and has a big cap hit that the Chargers would be relieved of if they moved him. They're actively clearing cap space. I think we could get him for a 4th, maybe it would take a 3rd but I don't think the cost would be as much as you're thinking. Justin Jefferson is also on the last year of his deal but is the best WR in the league in his prime. He's going to want to be the highest paid WR in the league and frankly he deserves it. I'd give up next years 1st, swap 10 for 11 this year and a 3rd this year provided he agreed to an extension w/us prior to a trade. He may not want to play in Minnesota after Cousins has left. Darnold is his QB as of now. The cap bros are going to lose their minds when they read this but it can be done pushing things into the future. It's time to go all in and go for it. Anything I suggest is going to be debatable but I think those are at least reasonable ballpark trades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggest question i have is, if they don’t get a legit wr in FA, and then the top 3 wrs go in the draft before them, would they still go OT at 10 and then hope to address wr in round 3 or would they pivot to bowers or a trade back? Welcome to the Rodgers level of hell. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
