I think there may be something to the overall theory but I think you're getting ahead of yourself a bit. Paying $25-60 million for WR 1/2 severely handicaps your ability to build the rest of your team. Doubly so if you're already paying a QB. It seems like almost every draft the last few years has been a 'strong' class. What, 4 of the last 5 years at this point? People are already talking about next year's WRs. The college game has changed and they are churning out WR talent like crazy. Eventually it becomes the new norm that you can re-fill your WR room through the draft and spend elsewhere. It isn't there yet, but I would not be surprised if in 5 years this is what the 'smart' teams are doing. Everybody is looking for the next advantage to exploit, the next opportunity to be the forward thinker on the cutting edge. I could see it happening at WR with the explosion of both salaries and new talent.

They haven't been able to get passed the best team in the league. That doesn't mean the whole operation is a failure. If not for some truly rotten injury luck I think they would have done so a couple times.

This place has been miserable AF since the draft. The worst it's been since 'Wrong Josh'. Everyone wanted a Playstation for Christmas but when they came downstairs, there was a bike with socks and underwear. Instead of realizing that there's nothing wrong with a bike and we really needed new socks and gotch, it's tantrum time. Are we going to have to endure this endless whining for the next 6 months? Sounds like a fun way to be a fan... Last off-season people were losing their minds because they intended to run Spencer Brown back out there and they didn't sign a MLB. They said their guys were in house and they believed in their development. Seems to have worked out OK. That's what good teams do. Can we not take a breath and wait and see? 2nd best record in the league over the last 5 years says they deserve at least a bit of confidence. They aren't the morons people want to make them out to be.

I'm not convinced that teams were giving him much attention. He saw a lot of single coverage that he wouldn't break. I say wouldn't intentionally; I think it was a result of attitude/effort rather than deteriorating physical ability. I think teams saw the uninterested malcontent and treated him accordingly. He certainly wasn't seeing the coverage he did a couple years ago. I think there's a difference in perspective; I see it as needing to replace what we had on the field to end last year, not the guy who racked up 1400 yards. I think there's enough secondary options to chew into that gap in production. I still think we're going to see lots of 2 TE this year.

Haha me speak english good. More polished*, better

I like the comments on Kincaid VS Bowers. Everyone has been pumping up Bowers as the uber-prospect for 2 years but at least some people see Kincaid as the more polished, better receiver.

It's a net negative if Diggs was who he was supposed to be. Instead he was a petulant baby that quit mid season. People keep talking about the WR position with the memory of Diggs, not the guy who was actually on the field the last 10 games. The Diggs/Davis we got down the stretch will not be hard to replicate, if not surpass.

This draft was about replenishing the depth of the roster. Given the turnover and the cap situation, they needed to fill a lot of holes. They weren't wasting picks on guys iffy to make the team. I think they add a vet wr still and that's why they only picked 1. Coleman wouldn't have been my choice. Would have gone McConkey or Legette. We'll see. Pretty happy with the rest though. I could honestly see everyone (the Brit on PR) making the team, which is crazy with that many picks. Also shows how much less established the roster is vs the last few years.

Maybe you misheard... He was 1 of 15 kids. He doesnt have 15 kids.

The amount of times they failed to adjust to obviously bad alignments/formations/playcalls is really frustrating. If I can see that we're about to get blown up pre-snap from the couch without even knowing the call, Josh and/or Morse should be able to see and react. Pre-snap reads are an area Josh could still really improve.

Not sure why you keep trotting out this 'Diggs' numbers were down because he was in the slot' narrative. Slot is easier. They put him there because he couldn't get off a jam to save his life.

I think we are going to see an extremely motivated Josh Allen... He's said all the right things re: Diggs drama. Now it's time to show people who's the top dog.

Thanks for everything Stef but had to be done. The guys attitude and behavior was a black cloud hanging over the org. I figured they were stuck 1 more year due to contract. I think the fact they moved now shows how toxic things had gotten.

Look who got paid this offseason - WR, yes, but DTs and Guards. The Rams just gave 2 above average guards a combined 35m/year. Quality DTs are now well over 20m, pushing to 30. The game evolves. Interior pass rush is the best way to disrupt today's stud QB's. There is nothing wrong with taking a DT in the 1st round re: positional value. For a team like us, going DT then WR could make sense with the depth of the class. I still like WR 1st but it will depend how it all falls. Great WRs regularly come out of the 2nd round. What's the gap between WR 6 and WR 11?

Fair enough. The way I see it, they'd been playing that slow, ball control offense all game with great success. While 8 minute drives are certainly unusual, a completion to Diggs would have given them a chance to take it right to the end. I felt it was an example of not thinking the big picture, which has occurred way too often.
