If you bring in Mike Williams then don’t draft a WR until rd 3. You’re putting yourself into an FAU situation all over again where the guy is stuck behind the top 4 receiving targets. [Reply]

There still will be. Hollywood is on a one year deal and Williams probably wouldn't have a long tenure either. But man if we are lining those two up we are a smash Super Bowl favorite. And we've even insured against the possibility that Kelce slow down during the year we're trying to threepeat. [Reply]

Man it's not a bad thing to have four good receivers. You can get dicked by injury any time, especially with guys like Mike Williams.
Nothing wrong with insulating. It'd be one year tops of low snap counts because HB and Williams aren't gonna be here beyond one year. [Reply]

Fuck no you don't wait to take someone just because of this year.
We didn't have anyone but Kelce in front of Rice and he still was 4th on the snaps list most weeks until mid-season. Andy slow rolls his rookie WR's.
Take the most talented guy available. Hell, most WR's don't truly break out until their 3rd season. We struck gold with Rashee. [Reply]

Is true, but receivers have historically taken a year or two to grow into Andy's scheme. Probably because his route tree includes everything and the kitchen sink and you have to be able to execute across multiple trees. So a rookie can produce in a limited set of circumstances, but will not be an every down player until they have developed within the scheme. [Reply]

If our scouts can start adding young cost-controlled weapons as regularly as they add new DB's the rest of the NFL is dead. [Reply]

That's a beautiful sentiment. Why didn't we get FAU more snaps? Oh because he didn't give us the best chance to win that week? Why'd we pick him? Oh because he has the potential to be an every down guy? [Reply]
If we signed Mike Williams and drafted a #1 WR potential guy like Adonai Mitchell I would give Adonai more regular season snaps and make sure Mike Williams was fresh and ready for the playoffs. [Reply]

Then also give Sneed a new deal.
So they let Allegretti walk, Thuney hasn't recovered from his injury to anyone's knowledge and you want to trade our only healthy guard with any starting experience? [Reply]
