Volkerball posted:It's funny learning afterwards that my hope for the top 5 was exactly the same as McKenzie and Allen, so we were cheering for the exact same situation the whole time. If we would have traded down had the Jags not Jagged, I would've been pretty happy with that result. Hey, I called it a couple days ago, if Watkins/Mack were gone, trade the pick, I'd have loved a boatload of 49er 2nd and 3rd picks. And yes, I jumped out of my seat when we got Bortled. Thank you, Jacksonville Jaguars.

Think Stevie might be a scheme casualty. I think Buffalo is going with an idiot proof offense build around speed. Stevie is a good receiver for cerebral quarterbacks because his skills are not physical but in his ability to outfox and get open. Last year he got stupidly open but Manuel had as much idea where he was as the corner. Don't know if he will be a good fit for San Fran but he definitely can be a weapon if utilized correctly.

Burger Trench posted:Yeah. I've been generally pretty okay with the Bills moves the past 24 hours. No one else seems to agree, though, so I hope I didn't forget to remove my homer glasses. I don't have much of an issue either. As you said, Watkins has the potential to be a tier above (he's really loving young, too) and the team made a move to improve his year for what seems like the first time in a decade. They've proven time and time again that they suck at the long-game development strategy, so gently caress it, go hog wild--prove you suck at the short-game too. As far as the Johnson thing goes, I think there's some injury concerns that played into the decision to trade him, but we'll see how he does next season.

warcrimes posted:I'm actually wondering why the 49ers end of the deal isn't under a bigger microscope. They now have three possession recievers and still nobody to stretch the field, which is what they've needed for, oh, I don't know, ten years? In fact, I've been pretty underwhelmed with the 49ers moves so far. They didn't package picks to move up and grab one of the elite CBs and reached for Ward at a position that wasn't an immediate need. Ward is a hybrid S/CB (played both in college). He'll be starting off as a nickle corner, which was absolutely the position of need for the team. Johnson is good for the team because he has three years left on his contract, and Crabtree (and possibly Boldin) is gone after this year. I expect them to get a speed WR today.

Vic Tafur Friday, May 9 at 10:55am- Not everybody loved the Raiders picking linebacker Khalil Mack in the first round. Here’s Jon Gruden: The ESPN analyst and former Raiders head coach Gruden said Mack is raw “in space” as an outside linebacker. “He reminds me of Sio Moore,” Gruden said. “I’m still shocked they didn’t pick a quarterback.” Of course, Gruden was having a heart attack any time any team passed on his guy Johnny Manziel. Manziel finally went to the Browns 22nd.

Volkerball posted:I was just pleading all the way through the top 4, somebody, SOMEBODY take someone that isn't Mack, Clowney, Watkins, Robinson. I was cheering my rear end off at the Jags. We owe them more than we can ever explain. gently caress. Yes. When The Jags took Bortles and the Bills traded up for Watkins I wanted to jump up and salute the TV because I didn't give a poo poo what happened after that, the Falcons were either getting Mack or Matthews. But I sat there and smiled, then watched the rest of the draft anyway, hoping there wouldn't be a run safeties.

Fair enough, you're the 49er fan and better plugged in than I am. Although a Raider guy, I'm looking forward to watching what the niners do today.

I was really confused as to why draft a wide out and get rid of a veteran "slot" receiver since he could just get opened. I would love him on the patriots.

Atticus Finch posted:I believe he's implying today. I kind of don't even see the point of taking a QB high, like even a theoretically good non-Savage one, at this point because Campbell got a significant amount of money and carrying 3 QBs seems poor, seems like it makes the most sense to take a QB late if anything that can be snuck onto the p-squad rather than a high profile guy. I mean whether you think that that's the answer to the Andy Dalton problem is one thing (its not) but I think that's what the Bengals will do

I doubt the Johnson acquisition has anything to do with Sherman and more to do with Crabtree being a free agent after this year and Boldin being a release candidate in 2015 as well. That would probably be re-enforced if they do take a WR tonight.

I'm at work and Dan Barreiro just spent the first segment of his show saying that because he is regarded as really nice, graduated college early, has a questionable deep ball, and is the most game ready QB of this class, all like Christian Ponder, Teddy Bridgewater is Christian Ponder and the Vikings have failed.  Bump, you're usually more pragmatic than this with football.
