Draft WR Lamb in 1st round

[Solar7]

There will always be exceptions to the rule, but you cannot count on that happening, especially if you’re the AZ Cardinals. Sad, but true. If you want a legit stud, go get him in the 1st round.

Your team cannot be exclusively comprised of 1st rounders. The vast majority of the teams in this league do not have a #1 receiver that was drafted in the first round.

But you have to draft guys with size.

BUtler should be back next year, but we don't know how he'll pan out. That should mitigate the need for a big receiver.

 

[Crimson Warrior]

I put his name on my favorite list of potential pick early in the year
I deserve some credit

You have been calling for Lamb for quite some time now juza. You're the Captain of Team Lamb.

 

[Finito]

Nope. We need offensive line and defensive front 7 help badly. WR are fancy toys but you win games in the trenches

Not optimistic about Butler next season. He looked very raw in preseason and TC. He really needed a full season to develop and hone in his skills. He might not be very productive next year

For as much draft capital as we invested this year in the WR corp, the return thus far has been pretty disappointing.

If we draft a skill position over something to help fix this defense or OL I may throw my remote through the TV.

Suge White, baby.

 

[Finito]

Suge White, baby.

He also looks like he hit with his 1st and 2nd round picks.

I’ll take it

Let’s all hope those are going away presents

I want nothing but first rounders. Who also want to take deep discounts on all contracts.

Plus our third round pick is starting. You've got a point Finito.

Murphy looks like he has the chance to be "great". Like maybe a pro-bowler or something. That would be quite a draft coup. A legit shut-down corner coming from a 2nd round pick.

If this pans out, we'll be dangerous at the CB position for least a couple of years. Him and PP21 starting opposite of each other.

 

[ajcardfan]

Um..... hell no.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Look, I love him too. But we have to go inside / outside in this draft IMO. OL, DL, Outside WR.

And if Jerry Jeudy is on the board...... You shouldn't go with CeeDee.

Hopefully we win enough games so we're not in position to draft Jeudy.

I think that draft is going to be loaded at WR as well.

Lamb's draft position will be determined by his 40 time at the Combine.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

You have to draft for need and we need offensive line help

I don't want to take Adrian Peterson when we already have Edgerrin James. What a waste of our big free agent signing. I think a guy like Levi Brown will address a need and be the smartest pick.


This is how many of you sound to me and how your discussion is framed historically.

 

[Garthshort]

Chris I thought that EJ retired.

 

[Chris_Sanders]

Chris I thought that EJ retired.

He played for us til 2008. AP was 2007

 

[BW52]

None of the guys you mentioned (Kirk, McLaurin, Metcalf, etc) are authentic or legit #1's. I don't care how many 2nd round WR picks you take, they will never amount to a legit #1. We need a #1 & it'll take a 1st round pick to get one. It's quite ok to have 3 one thousand yard receivers (Fitz, Boldin, Breaston). Only one of them was a 1st round pick.

And then hear the same BS about how the defense can`t stop anybody or KM was running for his life because of the OLINE.Fix the damn trenches first.

Yes, the trenches are critical in football at every level. But, you're still underestimating the value of those fancy toys called WR's.

 

[football karma]

what i really want the team to do in this draft:

trade down multiple times with a goal of stockpiling picks in the 25-55 range

 

[Son of RedRage]

I think you pick a guy like Lamb not entirely out of need, but because you don't want any other team to have him. He's an absolute beast and I would be pissed if we took some 'Bama lineman or some other future nobody instead of him.

This. All day (pun not intended) this.

you don’t pass up talent bc you suck somewhere else. Particularly not when you could use that talent too. All things equal you draft need. But even I say “equal” I mean equal! Say no to Levi brown!!!

 

[Finito]

Not really. Let’s look at the past 20 years.

Fitzgerald
AJ Green
Randy Moss
Terrell Owens
Julio Jones
Megatron
Antonio Brown
Odel Beckham
Dez Bryant
Marvin Harrison

how many championship do all those hall of famers have combined?

Yup. You don’t need a big time WR to win in the NFL.
