If we did a deal like that with multiple high picks I would immediately try to make a wager that a season ending injury was in his future. NOT wishing it upon anyone, but lets face it…..
At least that way I get one win, unfortunately probably in the form of a bet won. Going all in is great, but only if you get it right and stay lucky. Or you could go bold by paying 4 players big and have nothing else to put around them, like the Bengals*.
I didn’t hate the Von deal at all, but we’ll never know what might have been. He looked good until the injury. 🤷♂️
I do expect them to attack the WR position the way they did the OL, then the DL last year. I have no idea who, but I expect them to address WR more seriously in FA and the draft than they have in the past. The good news is two, or even one guy can move the needle. On the lines you need a bunch of guys, at WR we need A guy.
* Speaking of the Bengals, NFLN just had the game replay on. It was shockingly obvious with a calm mind that Higgins was rocked after repeatedly banging his head on the ground. How was that allowed to continue? I don’t do sports channels on TV or radio the way I used to, but I hope that got some attention.
