An illustration is he was picking up and spending money on defensive depth players with no known number 1 or 2 WRs on the roster.

I think these guys are all locks for the first round.
1. Marvin Harrison Jr. 2. Malik Nabers 3. Rome Odunze 4. Brian Thomas Jr. 5. Adonai Mitchell 6. Xavier Worthy These guys have a shot at going in round 1, but all three won't make it in. 1. Keon Coleman 2. Ladd McConkey 3. Troy Franklin |

Agreed. And im not sure its so much a Veach thing but rather a Reid thing. This pattern goes back to Philly.

As for the second part of this post, those "defensive depth players" are a big reason we just won our 3rd SB in 5 years you cry baby bitch. I know SBs don't count for you unless they're scoring 30+ throughout the playoffs, but you still sound like a dumbass crying about it. |

Brett said the trade Tyreek Hill idea was his and he had to sell Andy on the concept. Imagine how great of a defense we can build seems to be a Veach preoccupation. He did a good job of doing it but if you're going to do a defensive build you still need more than what he provided the offense. We haven't done well with the skill draft picks. We haven't used enough picks or taken chances on WR's later like Mooney, Duvernay, Nacua, Shakir, etc We haven't invested enough in FA. And JuJu was our big "hit" and it was just a solid choice. MVS was an obviously bad contract the moment it signed. We haven't added good value players at WR either. It's going to take a lot of change and I fear you could be right. I don't think we should do another year of treading water because this offense is THIN. We are depending on an older Kelce who already looked old most of last year and Pacheco who takes a lot of physical abuse. I would prefer a plan that not only adds this year but gives us hope for the future on offense.

Ask Miami how that went with Waddle/Tyreek or Cincy in 2022 with Chase/Higgins? Tom Brady won 6 super bowls in NE and none of them were with Randy Moss. Mahomes has won more Super bowls without Tyreek than with him. Andy famously said in Philly “ Andy Reid told Philadelphia, I want two offensive tackles, a quarterback, two pass rushers, two corners, and I'll figure the rest out.” That seems to be his priority. And who could blame him after what they just did in 2023?

There's absolutely nothing wrong with taking a swing at WR on day 2 every year. Packers and Steelers are probably 2 of the best organizations when it comes to drafting and developing WRs, and that's exactly how they've done it.
We are constantly picking at 29-32. The difference between the WRs that are available outside of the top 20 and those that go in the 2nd round is minimal. The hit rate is about the same. |

The first SB they had two HOF weapons in Tyreek and Kelce and the last two years it was Kelce. The only other team to go the the SB recently from the AFC was Cincinnati. They don't go without Chase and Higgins. The other two SB winners include the LA Rams who had Cooper Kupp and OBJ playing at an elite level at WR and Tampa Bay who had Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Antonio Brown, and Gronk. Sorry, but your 1970's mentality isn't how it works anymore. And even with Kelce playing at en elite level in last year's playoffs and the emergence of Rice later in the year the KC offense went 16 straight drives in the AFC Championship and SB without scoring a TD.

I honestly don't know how much value I put in Veach's past moves as an indication of what he'll do. He seems to throw curveballs each year. If he doesn't go WR this year maybe that really is a habit, but let's see. CB wasn't a R1 priority until it was.

With Burton, I think he's confident not a head case. 0 drops last season, precise route runner, I think he know's he a legit WR with advanced skill set and get's a little chippy bc he's a smaller guy, will play slot in future. Would love a legit #1 WR for the outside + Burton as our new slot. He's what Moore was supposed to be I think. |

His routes were crisp in and out, his gauntlet showed speed and great body control and the ability to adjust to passes high, low and behind. He had a fantastic combine. I'm glad he is still the sleeper. Last edited by Abba-Dabba; 03-04-2024 at 04:16 PM.. |
