Which WR Are We Waiting For?
-
Bryant made some great plays. And he is very fast. I'm shocked he hasn't been picked yet. If he falls to the Browns in the fourth, you couldn't ask for more!
If he falls to the browns at 4b...which I believe is in the 20s of that round, I will say complete draft, with a B- or better grade. If we follow with Dontae Johnson in the 7th or by way of trade with the Bills 2015 4th (I see that as a tradeable pick if its for good cause), I'll go B grade or higher.Bryant made some great plays.

If we traded a fourth next year it would only be for a 5th rounder and I would honestly rather see us trade OUR 4th round pick.

We are past any impact receivers for next year.
The footballs will be thrown to Burleson, Benjamin, Watkins and, I guess, Greg Little.
Cameron, Dray, Tate, Lewis .... I guess we will be spreading it around.
Benjamin the only rea home run threat now.

I agreeish. I think Abbrederis will make a seamless transition and has the chance to make a difference next year.
The rest of the list?
I like Bryant and Gallon but we have enough slots.

Leading up to the draft, I had and still have, full confidence if Ray Farmer. Yesterday I was on cloud 9 with a lot of you - getting the best CB in the draft, the QB with the most upside, AND a first round pick next year. Pure magic by Farmer.
However, these guys have known Gordon is facing a suspension for 2 weeks now, and still haven't grabbed a WR? I can understand trading with Buffalo and giving up Sammy Watkins, as this WR class is deep. But as of right now we have Greg Little as our number 1 receiver.
Farmer is too smart to let this happen. He either knows something that none of us know, or maybe he never planned on a receiver in this first 3 rounds no matter what. But there's no way Farmer is this incompetent.
I just wonder what's going to happen

We are bringing back the heavy run game not like the rest of the league with their passing nonsense.
-
My guess is that they are sticking to their board, and on top of that, maybe they do know something we don't about the druggo. If they truly have several WRs rated high on their board that they feel 99% confident will be there in rounds 4-7, then they are building the team by their board and not a knee jerk need.
I admit, I too am surprised that we didn't take 1 WR today, but I have to believe these guys know more about their plan than all of us do put together.

Had to tweak your assessment a bit.
-
I believe they know some late picks that can play...
and I think they have made investigations into cap casualities,
and perhaps a tentative trade for a wr depending on
if that team got their wr in the draft or not.
Who knows, outside of Farmer and Pettine and co.
Smart. Brilliant, even. These guys rock !

Abbrederis (concussion history)
Janis
Neutz

Personally I like Bryant, but I don't think we'll get him without a fourth rounder. At this point who even knows what they're doing. If this Gordon news didn't happen, then I'd actually really like this draft. It's been a solid one for us.
-
One of three things is happening.
Best case scenario - they know Gordon won't be gone for the entire year or it was a false positive. Something like that and he'll win his appeal.
Middle scenario - they trust the guys we have and/or have their eye on someone they think can be really good.
Worst case scenario - they trust the guys we have, but they're dead wrong and are screwing the shit out of the team.
-
we have like 8 recievers. ESPN has an updated roster. Maybe they are okay with our WR's

Martavis Bryant
6'3", 211lb, 4.42 40
Jared Abbrederis
6'1", 195lb, 4.50 40
Matt Hazel
6'1", 195lb, 4.50 40
Jeff Janis
6,3", 219lb, 4.42 40
Shaq Evans
6'1", 213lb, 4.51 40
Tevin Reese
5'10", 163lb, 4.46 40
Kevin Norwood
6'2", 198lb, 4.48 40
These are some of the WRs left (correct me if one was taken). No stats, just specs. I believe of these and the few I left out (Gallon...I'm tired lol), there are 2 receiver steals in here. Sort through and send feedback. Need guys to root for tomorrow.

Brandom coleman 6'6 225
Big strong receiver
Great measureables but has inconsistant hands.
Projected 3-4
With his physical measurements and assuming he improves his game he could be a very good receiver for us at 4
not as athletic as his size would indicateJared Abbrederis 6'1 195
Average size and mediocre to below average athletic ability
Excellent Intelligence and Football IQ
Great Hands and the best route runner of the draft
projected 4-5
Jeff Janis 6'3 219
Good sizeGREAT Athletic ability top performer in nearly all combine categories
8th fastest 40,6th most bench press,3rd on the cones,6th on shuttle,13th on vert jump and broad jump,
Lacks experience against top talent, plays conservatively
projected 3-4
After looking at the prospects that are left this is most likely "homerun" players i could find.
Janis worries me alot. Athletically he's the obvious choice with alot of high potential. But what I'm reading and seeing he seems to lack heart and unless he can find it or it can be brought out we would just be wasting a pick on him. looks like a mental wall to me...if it can be be torn down by the coaches or the team leaders he could be our number 2 receiver pretty simple stuff.
Coleman has the attributes of a number 1 receiver but lacks the football skills and knowledge
Abbrederis has the brains and knowledge to play the position of number 2 wideout but his attributes say slot receiver of which we have many.
I think the safest pick for us would be Abbrederis
The highest risk highest reward would be janis
Coleman could develop into a monster....but there is just not much other than size going for him.
My pick in the 4th would be Abbrederis He could EASILY replace at least greg little...
But i would be happy with either of these 3 even if we had to move up a little to get them.
