He is a dt

Wants too much money most likely

Then hurry up and make it happen!!! The more time time passes, I feel….

There’s our DE4! Fired up! Rousseau Epenesa Miller Toofhill

I lol’d pretty hard. Thanks

This can’t be good!

I don’t think passing on a possibly elite talent at a premier position (which happens to be a huge need) so we can draft a 2nd rd talent WR is wise. We likely won’t have to worry about this though. Latu should be gone. But that’s the exception imo.

He was great in college. 🤣

Jamal Adams is bottom of the barrel, not top of the market. And he’d be an awful choice for us playing next to Rapp

The injuries aren’t the only thing holding him back from being great now.

There is one great excuse/reason. If a player they have rated much higher than the highest rated WR falls to them, it’s a valid excuse, especially if that player is a pass rusher. There’s a chance that 5,6,7 WRs are off the board when we pick. If Thomas goes in the teens and Mitchell shortly after, teams could be more apt to trade up ahead of us because everyone knows we’re targeting WR. If we select Keon Coleman over Latu, I’d have to question whether or not Beane has a clue. If we took Legette or Franklin over Latu, I wouldn’t be furious but I’d think that they bypassed the better player at another position of need. The excuse/reason is really only valid if players we had rated very high, fall further than expected. Lots can depend on how the draft falls.

They sold 50M stroud jerseys in his first season…. What better than to make a new uniform so they can sell 50M more

Yeah, because Von was known for dogging it when he’s healthy 🙄

Doesn’t seem like a McD type. Exceptional talent that I think could still be great….but I don’t think he’ll ever put in the effort to get there. He takes way too many plays off effort wise.

You’re right- they’re completely different. But to say that he isn’t replacing him isn’t correct imo. I think he’s going to be top 2 in WR snaps unless we trade up for Thomas or Mitchell. I think both of those guys would take Gabes spot and take 70-80% of his snaps. Many of gabes snaps were due to his blocking ability and had little to do with the routes being run. Samuel eats in the intermediate routes. 10-25 yards, he’s a separation machine imo. There’s a chance he’ll be running a lot of the routes gabe ran as I think he’s better equipped to take on the outside role than shakir is. Both Shakir and Samuel will have pretty heavy roles in offense imo. With Kincaid and Knox also in the mix for snaps, whichever rookie WR we draft will have to beat out solid vets for snaps. Dunno if the Franklin, Leggette, pearsall types would run away with all of gabes snaps. Thomas or Mitchell, maybe. I think samuel is an upgrade over Gabe more than he’s an upgrade over any other WR we lost. He’s going to get a lot of snaps. Just like Gabe. Unlike Harty. Unlike Sherfield. Shakir is still here and will be getting his share of snaps. Unlike Gabe, samuel gets open and can do so 25 yards down field. That’s why he’s an upgrade imo

He looks like one to me. Wouldn’t be happy with him over a WR, but wouldn’t mind it if we were to find a way to also land one of the top 10 WRs in the class.

Or maybe just post the mocks in the thread dedicated to mock drafts? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Good for him. Congrats Taron. Well deserved and seemed to be inevitable

He makes sense until you realize there’s a salary cap and we still have several other holes And how much do you pay him?

Yeah…..that would be great. I don’t see him signing for less than 10aav

So you wouldn’t be on board with Brian Thomas Jr then? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Interesting thought. Could definitely be something to that

Deserves it all = however much money he signs for.

And gets paid more decent big bucks. Class act deserves it all
