It's a voyager thread so...

He is so much like Bryant and I think they needed a guy like that to make plays like you saw at Houston. You are right that his feet need work, but his other attributes are there and I think they saw him being able to give Alex a better version of what Bowe could do by going up for the ball. It's an added benefit that he's smart, passionate and has elite straight line speed.

I really hope we focus on getting another guy like him but with better feet. I really really like Sterling Shepard to do that. He's this year's Tyler Lockett.

Dorsey helped turn that Green Bay WR corps from Robert Ferguson and a young Donald Driver who didn't know what he was doing to what it is today.

It's astounding to me that the ONLY draft investment we've made at the WR position in three years has been Chris Conley. That's a shortcoming of Dorsey's.

He's identified WR talent in the past. He's found it in all places from the 1st to the 7th. So given we've had WR problems for 3 years, why does he keep insisting on turning to free agency to solve his problems at the position? Just ****ing draft guys.

Our new #2.

Pretty close, but ORT is probably a bigger need.

Jury is out on Conley, but at least he's there to be judged. Right tackle? We really don't have anyone on the roster capable of playing it at a 60/65% NFL level. That's a problem.

But then, how are we going to draft Jaylon Smith?

shouldve drafted lockett

I'm assuming that teams in front of us aren't stupid enough to let him fall any lower than 15-20.

What do you know about Kyle Fackrell from Utah State? Daniel Jeremiah has him going to us in his first mock draft.

I like Mitch Morse, but that one is gonna hurt around here for a long time

im almost willing to bet morse wouldve been there w/ our next pick.

instead we drafted someone that rarely plays, except for ST.

He's a good player.

Huge and long and is very effective using his length on the field. Understands the game.

He doesn't necessarily blow me away with his burst though. Tenacious, but doesn't have elite burst from the edge.

He is very effective in getting to the ball and knows how to get it out.

Very similar to San Diego rookie Kyle Emmanuel at the same level or our own Frank Zombo. Solid, tenacious players that aren't going to hurt you with lack of football understanding, but won't be truly elite due to lack of top echelon physical traits.

However, Fackrell is longer than either Emmanuel or Zombo and that will help.

I'd also be looking at Montana's Tyrone Holmes at that position as well. Very similar to Fackrell size wise and might have better burst. Both very good prospects for the 34 OLB position.

Benjamin would be tits, with Conley and Wilson as the 3 and 4.

However, I think it's time to throw a few more draft picks in there from a financial standpoint.

Will Fuller can take the top off of a defense.
Will Fuller can take a screen pass to the house.
Will Fuller can run the intermediate routes that Reid loves.
Will Fuller at #28.

Everyone shit on the other guy with this idea, but seriously, why couldn't Jamaal be used like Benjamin?

Spencer Ware may actually be a better pure RB for the kind of change of pace this offense needs. His ability to just beat the shit out of people and force teams to keep more bulk on the field to answer for him allows us to make more space.

With Charles back there, you just put speed everywhere and it'll work itself out. You try to do that with Ware and he'll just run you the !@#$ over. So you put in a LBer or bigger box safety and now we're able to find a little more room in the passing game as well.

If you used Charles on jet-sweep actions and had him running all those plays that Wilson was running....holy ****, how do you deal with that? If he gets the ball, he's in space. If you throw him the ball, he's in space. Lord, think of the WR screens! If you hand it to Ware, Charles is such a threat that he's almost certainly pulled someone out of the middle on the sweep action. It would work, man.

It'll never happen and truthfully maybe it shouldn't, but someone tell me why Charles couldn't be the X receiver in this offense, especially if we increase the amount of jet-sweep actions we run. When Ware needs a break, you just move Charles to the backfield and put Wilson back out there. It would extend Jamaal's career by taken a bunch of hits off his body and I think we'd be a better team for it.
