    This was simply a bad pick due to the fact there were several very good WR's on the board here!  Singletary is undersized and not fast.   

    Frank Gore is finished and Shady could fall off a cliff any minute in production. It’s a great pick for the future of this franchise at the running back position. The wide receivers obviously weren’t that great considered we passed on them.

    They can, but NFL teams are risk averse and most of the best coaches work in the NFL, so they aren't available for private tutelage. I'm sure that Jordan Palmer is good at what he does, but is he the best?

     

    This thread is only pointless for people without reading comprehension that took it as "Ermergerd, He's saying Jackson is as good as Allen!" That's not the point of the post at all. The actual point, which is 2 QBs with the same athletic abilities and similar stats go to the NFL. One never wins in college in a weak conference but gets drafted 7th overall and the other wins a ton in a weak conference but goes undrafted. If those things don't make up the difference, what does? It's not arm talent, speed, size, strength, or winning - which are all things people commonly consider when drafting QBs.

    You’re not a scout. Teams put on the tape and obviously saw Josh Allen had the arm strength, footwork and throwing motion to put it together at the next level. He also obviously nailed his interviews, board work and background checks.

     

    If you draft based on the stat sheet you’re gonna end up like the Raiders. Or us before Beane.

    Slow. Small. Religious. 

    Waste of a pick but at this point these are all marginal guys.

    No WR or pass rusher to develop yet. But at least they aren't taking unathletic guards with no hope of making the team.

     

    I'm about the furthest you can get from religious and never have been, but how is one being religious a knock against them as a player? That's absolutely mind boggling.

    Not this year. But look at it this way. With Barkley and Anderson backing up Allen, there is no expectation for either to challenge him. But Jackson is young and could challenge Allen in a year or two.

    A 7th rounder is going to challenge the 7th overall pick? He'll be lucky to be on a practice squad next year.

    Thank you! At least there's some of you out there who realize that we have a legit WR corps who have different skill sets and alot to offer. Shady/Yeldon are elite receiving RB as well! We have plenty of legit options in the pass game

     

    And again , the major improvement of the OL is probably more important than any WR we brought in or could have brought in! 

    Exactly, and in all honestly what are the odds of even taking a receiver in the 6th or 7th rounds and having them become an elite number one wideout? I'd rather they follow the board and go BPA which is what it looks like they did.

     

    This wasn't the best class for receivers either considering where all the "top guys" ended up going.
