Forcing The Ball To Marvin Harrison Junior

[CardsSunsDbacks]

hard knocks showed they could have traded down with the Giants and ended up with Malik Nabers

and, gotten #39, which was Braden Fiske, DT

easy in hindsight, but probably the right move

Maybe, or maybe 10 years from now we will laugh at the idea of making that trade. Hard to say in the middle of the first season.

I think @DVontel and @Chopper0080 were on the take Alt and then get Brian Thomas Jr route (if no MHJ at 4) right?

His downfield speed is next level

I’m like 98% sure I wasn’t on that BTJ route at all lol

Might be getting you mixed up with someone.

I think you suggested we consider looking at Mitchell/Thomas with our 2nd 1st round pick once it seemed like Qbs weren't going top 3 (on the chance we miss out MHJ).

Edit: Yea you were Alt and then get a WR 2nd day I believe.

fwiw: my overall point isnt about MHJ vs some other WR

it is that we put wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too much reliance on the pre draft rankings between the 1st best prospect at a position and the 2nd or 3rd or 4th best prospect at a position.

In the face of Will Anderson this was never going to happen.
MO had used his goodwill on the previous draft which is fine. Plus don't know how much of a fit Nabers would be with this team. Nabers is for sure way more aggressive in going after the football and beating his man than Marv is.

Hopefully all this is just MHJ needing to mature and Petzing getting WRs involved.

We would be lamenting Monti for doing this as Nabers in our offense wouldn’t be making all these low percentage catches. Where as MHJ would probably be going off in a proper offensive scheme

draft controversy only sticks if the move clearly doesnt work out for you.

had the Cards come away with Nabers and Fiske -- we would be calling Monti a genius right now
