Why couldn’t we have drafted a WR? There were a bunch.

But if I had to go FA…Hollywood Brown would have been real nice. I’m obviously biased having wanted to draft him instead of Dillard. But he still fits the bill in this situation also. Geez would that be so incredible. Hopefully we can just find competent at this point. Bar is set real low here.

With what pick?

I had Q and Brian Thomas as the best draft picks I think in the first. Like the Q pick. So I’ll say second or third.

And... you know for sure he would have come here?   That's it Hollywood Brown. 

But they didn't get him, because they don't want to " build" for Moore?

So Hollywood Brown... or a 2nd round pick...then the rest of us would have been spared of your complaints?

See there is no answering one simple question from you. You asked me what one FA WR would I have gotten. Gave you a straight educated answer. Really very affordable WR option that is a heck of a WR.

Dude...you jizzed your pants when Q was drafted.  

See this is where fans like you annoy me.  You get 1 pick, that's it.  Then you move on.   There is always more that you leave on the table than you get when you draft.   You can't complain when you get your guy. 

In the third Round you had Malachi Corley, Jermaine Burton, Roman Wilson, McMillan, Luke McCafrry and Franklin whom would have been a nice fit went beggining of the fourth.

Extensive specific answers to several and many of your questions

That's great... you gave an answer...finally.   We are blessed to have these complaints because of Hollywood Brown.   The slot receiver extraordinare.

Wouldn't those picks be developmental though... just like our rookies...then Wouldn't you keep complaining?

I’d say it was very very clear they were building for Fangio and not Moore when even in the third we were taking Jalyx regardless. I do mean regardless

Yeah... was it hard to actually answer.

Unlike which specific team you would immediately trade our skill guys for theirs?

You are still alive actually answering ... so you can do it.

Yeah...do you think you are alone in thinking the Eagles needed to change a lot of players on defense?  And that they needed to get younger?

No the reason I listed them is because they were much less developmental. We have a drastic dire need at the position and watch how the stats turn out. Ainas Smith and Johnny Wilson won’t trump these day two draft picks. Obviously not everybody will work out. Wilson is almost the definition of development. Smith needs development and pro body shaping.

Isn’t it more time now that football activities are happening to find any news or info about what’s happening with the guys we do have here. You know…something beyond the pre practice presser where Siri struggles to answer what his job will entail.

Has anyone argued that they aren't looking to improve the defense or that it wasn't needed...or that we don't what them to get guys that Fangio doesn't want?

I would hope they get guys for whoever the DC is?

Don’t forget having quality coaching.

You should be GM knowing which draft picks can step in immediately and which ones will need time.  That's awesome!

Exactly my point. What matters is getting the right guys for us. Guys for Fangio to build his D. Guys on O to surround Hurts.

Yeah.... because you are alone there

 I remember when you posted this and said it was bad coaching and I had to explain to you it was the players fault here that he couldn't cover 20 yards in the same time frame as the WR running 5.  

You were definitely the only one there.

I do obviously put in plenty of time investigating and researching. I don’t have access to medicals or interviewing coaches and friends however. But there’s always an assumption based on draft pick hierarchy. Not always applicable. But I did notice that dropoff tier. You know that thing you don’t believe in. It was a very strong WR class. I mean even where we sat in the first round we could have chosen a complete stud WR. I liked Franklin who went in the fourth…kind of being the dropoff point.

Good players...I agree.

Idk what specifically you think you want around Hurts. 

For me...i don't want that long speed guy that runs the clear out patterns.  To compliment Hurts, Smith, AJ....guys locked up long term...  we need the shifty slot guy...  who can make an impact on a few, even maybe just one touch per game.   

I also think we need that jump ball outside WR to catch the floaters that Hurts throws. 

I think the 2 draft picks fit specifically for Hurts and the rest of the studs as potential  compliments.

Geez not this again where I try to explain to you how the Slot CB has the outside Zone coverage again. Haven’t we beaten this dead horse enough. You either get it ot don’t. But regardless you’ll label the CB who’s 6 yards off as being 12yards off…no matter how many times you post the pictures with clear yardage markers right there for you. But let’s not slow your massive exaggerations down.

I do like the potential of our two draft picks in this fit towards the future. I think a very quality O minded HC will utilize them.
