If he doesn't have a trade lined up, then his WR evaluation ability flat sucks beyond round 1. Expand After the Diggs trade, Beane's quote was "We'll look in the Draft and in Free Agency, and maybe 1 from each" He did NOT say "It's a great draft to need a WR so we might take a couple". He told everyone exactly what the plan was, and people didnt listen/didnt believe him because they were too busy in their armchair GM fantasy and falling in love with highlight reels.

LABILLBACKER Posted April 27, 2024 Posted April 27, 2024 On 4/27/2024 at 9:16 PM, Dr. Who said: He either has a trade set up post 6/1 or he has an incorrect evaluation of where his WR room currently is. Expand Or maybe he thinks Coleman and Samuel can just step in and replace Diggs/Davis? I was convinced he'd double dip wrs in the first 4 rounds. 1 Quote

I never got back around to his tape, but I spoke to a guy who was there that week and picked him out. He is their type as well, high RAS, athletic but raw. If I am correct I believe he is a converted tight end. Hope they can sneak him onto the 53 because I think he would get stolen off the PS. Expand Yea I’m not sure the numbers game will be in his favor for the 53. Was a QB and then a tight end. Has good tools to develop if we can hang onto him Quote
Turk71 Posted April 27, 2024 Posted April 27, 2024 Rice avg 17.6 yds and scored 12 tds last year, #1 target for the #1 pick in the draft....he's also Jerry Rice's kid and nobody wants him? Not even worth a 6th round pick? Puzzling 1 Quote

Expand yes, because getting WRs late on day 3 likely isn't perceived as being very high value. The difference between them and UDFAs is probably marginal. We're int he range of getting special teams contributors and priority UDFA targets here. 1 Quote

MarlinTheMagician Posted April 27, 2024 Posted April 27, 2024 I hope one of these next few picks before us is Flourney. Beane is screwing us, and its a point of principal now. 1 Quote

If you keep Van Pran which is expected, and he is only a Center, than you have two backup lineman with no flex. If Grable can show he can work both Tackle spots that could honestly push RVD out of a job or a trade candidate. 1 Quote
