    I skipped ahead from page 6 to 20.  Here's the thing:  We got a 6th for Bodine, who was cut one week later.  We got a 5th and a 6th for Wyatt Teller, who wasn't going to start for us, might not have even made the team.

     

    We had 2 5th's and 3 6ths, thanks to Beane busting a couple moves last summer.  They were going to be used to trade up.  Let's say Diggs is worth the 12th pick in the draft.  Was that too much to take that player?  Go back thru the draft history of WR's taken in the 1st-2nd round.  Lots of swings and misses.  Ask Detroit fans.  

     

    Diggs can be dominant.  With John Brown burning downfield, Beasley darting around 10 yards downfield, Knox making tough catches and plowing through linebackers....they can't cover all those guys.

     

    And we have an intact OL coming back, Josh at QB, Singletary in the backfield.  This is shaping up quite nicely.

     

    And Beane ain't done.  

    Still have 60 million and 7 draft picks. I love it.

    EDIT: The 4th and 5th rounder would have been packaged, with 22, to trade up for Lamb or Jeudy. And, while both appear to be potential elite talents, Diggs is proven elite, and has 4 years at an avg around 11 million... For a #1? That's pocket change, now, and the price will only go up!

     

    Good deal, in that light.


    ‘The 4 and 5 don’t get you close enough to where Lamb or Jeudy go. It would be more like 22+2nd round pick.
