Mike Evans Has Eleven TDs
-
Because we would have had to take him at #4, not #22.
-
That's more than Calvin Johnson, Randall Cobb, Demaryious Thomas, Alshon Jeffrey, AJ Green, and only two less than Dez Bryant and Antonio Brown. He missed a game with an injury and he's had two really mediocre quarterbacks throwing the ball.
So why did Ray Farmer pass on him and draft Manziel?

There are too many things wrong with that last sentence to even list.

I'm more impressed with Odell Beckham Jr,
The dude leads all rookies and receptions (71), receiving yards (974), he has 9 TD's (tied for 2nd)
AND HE'S MISSED 4 FUCKING GAMES!!!!!
-
Yet the giants and bucs have <= 5 wins.
Could have should have would have.

I swear if the NFL consistently called offensive PI Mike Evans would have only have the TDs he has now.. The guy is constantly pushing off to get open. I'm not convinced he will remain this productive throughout his career. Odell Beckham on the other hand... Star in the making.

They're both good, Beckham is having the best rookie year out of the class though IMO.I swear if the NFL consistently called offensive PI Mike Evans would have only have the TDs he has now..

But again, CBs are more valuable if Gilbert can turn into a stud.
Manziel, well...it's something.

Here's my problem with drafting Gilbert,
CB, to me, was never a huge priority with Haden and Skrine already here. We need a nickel guy and found one in K'Waun Williams and decent depth. Fuck, we even got Desir in the 4th.
It's easy to play Monday Morning draft GM because EVERYONE thought Clowney was the 2nd coming of JJ Watt.
Everyone thought Greg Robinson would be a fucking star and he's struggled big time.
The owners/coaches/Farmer KNEW Gordon would be suspended and still said "fuck drafting a WR". That to me was a little arrogant without having a true #1 WR and we did manage to get to 7-4 without a true #1 but with Gordon's contract coming up and his uncertain future, we just didn't know.
I won't lie and I'll admit I wanted Manziel but the second I found out Gordon was going to be suspended I just wished we would have taken Watkins.
I just didn't see the need for a CB when you have the 4th pick in the draft.

Issues with your post. Skrine had a very up and down year, many STILL want him exclusively at nickel and prior to the draft some didn't want him on the team. When Haden was banged up, our secondary had very little depth. This front office had zero idea just how effective Williams has been this year. For the most part he was expected to be camp fodder/special team contributor.
The front office addressed what they considered two positions of greater need, and probably would have taken a receiver after we picked Bito if they felt any worth worth the shot. Instead they upgraded the trenches. I love that call. They knew this team would not be some passing juggernaut even with Watkins or Evans. So they picked a badass line man because they also knew to be successful we'd have to run the rock - a shit ton. Imagine how piss poor this Oline would be without Joel. A WR would have made a shit bit of difference without the line being solidified.
I won't lie, I didn't want Manziel. IF we were going to do anything with having a pick in the 20's I wanted to trade further down, maybe pick up an additional second rounder and then take some offensive weapons. Instead... we went with party boy.

Fair enough and I'm glad we got Bitonio because him and Zac Martin have been the 2 best lineman in the draft.
We didn't see the Mack injury coming otherwise a center would have been drafted at some point.
I was just mad we didn't even go receiver at SOME POINT with Gordon being out for a year (and they knew this before it was released to the public)
My mock was 4. Manziel 26. Xavier Sau-Filo 37. Jordan Mathews (shows you how much I fucking know)
I swear to god the draft is so hard to do. It's hit or miss. I thought Brady Quinn/Beanie Wells/Ray Maualuga would all be badasses.
I think many of us get caught up in the Todd McShay/Mel Kiper bullshit

But all the draft experts and pundits, writers and sports analysts thought Mike Evans was going to the Browns? So did I.
DAMN THE TORPEDOES! FULL SPEED AHEAD! -

We could have had Mauluaga in the mid 2nd round no? I'd take him from the Bengals in a heartbeat.

Martavis Bryant - 4th round

Nice try. 5 TDs in his first 3 weeks before teams found out they couldn't leave him wide open. Nothing since then unless you count the garbage time TD against the jets..
