I don’t agree with all the Sanu hate either. He obviously suffered a nasty ankle injury early on, tried to gut his way through it, and was unfortunately not able to play at a high level. If he’s on the team and healthy, wouldn’t all surprise me to see him have good, productive season.
Shanahan - offensive genius - is very pleased to get another WR he can throw to... when leading in a SB and trying to preserve a lead
Are you saying that for this draft, or the draft generally? Regardless of the talent, both middle of the first round and top of the 2nd seem to be good value slots. Early third also seems to be the last place to find consistently good value.
49ers must have a deal for Goodwin. That would be a Belichickian move to get a player made redundant by a 49ers first round pick. It has certainly happened before. Couldn’t happen immediately though because of cap space constraints.
Exactly. The guy they get at 37 may not even be appreciably worse than who they could have drafted at 23. And they get pick 71 for their troubles. That's not a low pick! You can get a difference maker at pick 71.
This is plainly good business regardless of how it pans out. They still need to take the right guys, but this trade was a no brainer. In a shallow draft, maybe it wouldn't make sense, but it certainly does here.
Didn't have enough receivers either time! Julio Jones is only 1 generational talent.
I’m really happy for him. Never thought much of him but then he went to another level. He’s got really good speed and improved his hands a lot on deep balls. Also helped on short routes where he broke more than a few long runs.
Wow it's one thing to draft Love when you've got Rodgers. It's another thing to trade up to do it.
It was a good trade for the Pats who are reloading. But it's also a good trade for the Chargers, provided they think they are a piece away from contending. BB gets 2 bites at the apple with high value slots, but middle 1st is typically a good value slot too and at a higher salary. So it follows that those players are typically very good. Add in the 5th year option and it's close from a value perspective and comes down to 1) time horizon for competing and 2) scouting.
