The Jokeman

How many WRs do the Bears need? They e got Moore and Keenan. Not sure it's wise for them to spend more at WR besides at 9 they could get an Edge to play opposite Sweat.

If they can't keep Burrow healthy the window might be glued shut.

It worked for New England but as much as I love Josh he's no Tom Brady. If he was he would have passed to Diggs not Shakir on 2nd down.

Wilson also didn't compete with a Kincaid for targets or a Shakir or Samuel or Cooks. More than not WR who have great rookie stats are guys who are the only guy to throw to. I mean Nijigma-Smith was the 3rd WR on depth chart but didn't put up the numbers that Zay Flowers did. Was it a lack of skill or opportunity? Honestly any rookie that comes in is likely not.going to get the 160 targets Diggs got no matter how good a project they are. I fully expect our rookie WR to get between 80-100 targets at best. I want a big X like most but know that no matter who we draft he likely be 3rd or 4th best pass catcher we have in 2024.

And you think it's realistic for a rookie to immediately step into that role as a #1? Even if we got a chance of one of top 3 that's a big expectation.

Yup and usually a 3rd Rounder.

and as good as our offense was against the Chiefs, it was the Chiefs defense that stopped us when the game mattered or even I could say our lack of defense wasn't able to stop the Chiefs offense enough to win. I mean our offense put up the 2nd most points the Chiefs gave up all season in that playoff game and we still lost.

I can sit and watch episodes of House Hunters for hours on end.

As a type 1 diabetic it's easy to control these thanks to pumps and continuous glucose monitoring systems. Granted I'm not running routes etc which can impact sugars quicker than normal but one can carb up purposely to help avoid lows. People questioning effort don't watch enough football to realize all guys don't go balls to the walls on every down. My issue with McConkey is he doesn't beat people with pure speed but seem to make moves to avoid getting hit etc which great in the return game but as a receiver I worry as he struggled with injuries in college what's going to happen when the big guys start hitting him.

They remind me of the Montreal Canadians.

One of the Robinsons might be there at #28, I wouldn't be shocked if we grabbed one unless get a good offer to move down.

No surprise as some have compared him to Josh Allen and we all know who's running that team. That said would think the Patriots only ones that would trade down toss in with talk Daniels upset with the Commanders Maye might not be there at 3.

Washington has a bunch of 2nd/3rds so I'd definitely see if they'd be willing especially if a good Edge rusher and/or OT is still on board at 28 as assume they stay at 2 and take a QB. Yet admit we need a pass rusher too.

He was higher on my list pre-combine. I first pegged him as our pick back when the season ended.

Move back, he's upset about no 3rd for Edmunds and wants to get some guys that can start in 2024 and maybe 2025 and to me that comes from quality picks early and easiest way to get more is to trade down in Round 1.

Legette is my 3rd realistic guy after top 3. As like Thomas Jr., Mitchell and Legette. As to me his size/speed separates him from the McConkleys Persall and Worthy to be a WR1 Yet if we wait or trade down can see taking a Franklin or Baker or Walker as WR2 guys that can play on the outside.

You might want to move this to the main forum. Legette, he has more upside. Toss in McConkey had a back issue which to me a scary injury as sometimes you can never fully recover from them.

and to me WR isn't a trade up worth position, yes Julio Jones is a great example but he's the exception not the rule. Toss in did he ultimately win the Falcons a championship? No. Honestly I'm a wait and see approach, obviously I'd love Brian Thomas Jr but he'll likely go before us but don't feel he's so much better than some of the guys behind him. Yet think a guy like AD Mitchell's stock falling and could be there, if not hope we land a quality pass rusher if not trade back and hope to get a Legette in the early 2nd and get another pick that can help. As we aren't just a WR away, we have plenty of holes on the depth chart and some of them like DL don't have as great of prospects as WR does. Also the idea of two WRs baffles me especially early, how many passes are we expecting these kids to get? As to me Kincaid, Shakier, Cook and Samuel are going to get the majority of looks this year. I'm guessing the rookie might get 80-100 targets at most. Sure I could see taking a flier on a kid in Round 6 or 7 that could also pose as a return specialist and develop yet not likely starting material.

Gotta do something with it when the Regal on Elmwood closes...

I wasn't advocating we add Lockett just it make more logical sense to move on from the 30 plus year old WR vs Metcalf.

If anything new management would move an aging Tyler Lockett over Metcalf.

Did you see we were missing Milano and Bernard, Spector in that game? Oh and we signed a LB in the off-season.

Bills trade #28 to Washington for #36 and #78. With pick #36 we take the best WR on the board who I am hoping is Xavier Legette.

In Round 2 I hope otherwise Jerrah and company going to be over drafting by a long shot.
