If you depend on a defense to get turnovers to be good, you're already thinking poorly. I'd rather take a top 5 defense with bottom 5 turnovers then top 5 turnovers and 20+ defense.
I get the WR takes, but the fact is even with a #1 we aren't going to force-feed them the ball. They've shown that all year last year and from what I can tell thats not going to change. What does it matter if the receivers we have are capable? Keon is still a "?" but Shakir is proven. Knox is proven (to a point) Kincaid should hopefully bounce back. Palmer should be decent. Find me one more average or better outside receiver and I don't see the issue. Which, by the way, we weren't likely to find in the bottom half of the draft.
If they sign Moore then thats even less of a reason to be ticked since they obviously see the need and are looking to address it. I understand why Beane acted like he did, and I agree with most everything he said. Jeremy has been fixated on this WR thing for years.
That he hadn't finished his route, or there was a miscommunication with a rookie and quarterback, what does a star QB trying to bully his way through 3-4 defense only to fumble the ball say about HIS football acumen....
Edit: Or throwing into triple coverage? Or throwing a death ball in the middle of the field? the list could go on
Going to call him a bust too?
