    Everyone likes Farmer so far it seems like. Gotta wait til the season end before trust is finalized I think.

    Giving him a chance over Lombardi and Banner was definitely a good move.

            Based on his off season moves I'm putting faith in him

            Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                  any WR corp that has a guy of Gordon's caliber is not awful.

                    The only awful part of the receiving corp mentioned above is Little, but don't worry that will be addressed in the draft.

                      Outside of Gordon the WR are awful, Benjamin is a good returner. Hope Sammy is pick @4

                        Most teams don't have anyone of Gordon's caliber though.

                        We also have Cameron. Finding an upgrade over little shouldn't be terribly hard though.

                          dude we will pick WR in this draft and address it twice.

                          the draft is so deep at that positon we could have pro-bowlers picked int he 3rd round..........but i expect the FO to go sooner than that.

                          and yes i trust farmer. kicking stones inHS football stadiums kicking at cans as a scout. either he is brilliant or just briiliant.

                            Ozzie Newsome player turned GM in his first Draft had two 1st. round picks. I think he did pretty good Johnathon Ogden and Ray Lewis.Lets hope the football gods are looking over Ray Farmer as well.

                              That is just an awful statement. First of all Gordon, the leading receiver in the NFL last year, is in the mix which upgrades it from awful. Hawkins is a great slot addition to this team. Benjamin is fine as a number 4 for specific plays. The only thing awful is Little and I trust he will be upgraded via this deep WR class in the draft. One key add to this for a number 2 and its one of the best WR corps going.

                                  I agree, outside of Gordon we have nothing which is why I firmly believe Watkins will be the pick at 4, a guard at 26 and Carr/McCarron at 35. I don't believe the Bengals are going to match Hawkins or they would have done so by now. After those two are added then we can say we have a WR corp that is top notch NFL caliber.

                                    But we have Gordon, which is more than like 25-28 teams can say. If we add a guy in the second like Watkins teammate Martavis Bryant, wed have a top notch reciever group.

                                      But we have Gordon, which is more than like 25-28 teams can say. If we add a guy in the second like Watkins teammate Martavis Bryant, wed have a top notch reciever group.

                                      Having one elite WR is counter productive look at all those Detroit teams that had only one. Compare that to the Rams and Indy when they had multiple elite WR's. The middle of the field will be wide open when Gordon and Watkins are flying down field.

                                        lol what? How is having a great player counter productive? Calvin Johnson is not the reason for Detroits failures hahaha. We do need another good WR but sinking the number 4 pick into one is counter productive. The Rams got Holt when Bruce was 7-8 years in, same with the Colts and Harrison-Wayne. If we draft Watkins, it would be to replace Gordon eventually. We dont need that. How many elite WRs do the Seahawks, Niners and Pats have?

                                          What else would you want at 4? Watkins is the real deal and will start from day one.
