It's easy, and only takes a few moments.If you're watching tonight's championship game, you know why I'd rather spend a 2nd rounder on Justin Fields than wait and hope for one of these guys to amount to anything out of college.
yup, exactly what Kraft would never do: pay $40M a year to Cousins and pass on a young QB until the third round. BTW, Penix won't last until the 3rd round,. Even if he did, there would be no guarantee that we'd get him.Draft MHJ and sign cousins and draft penix if he falls to 3rd round .
You're going back quite a ways with Wynn and Harry. By April, Wynn will be 7 drafts ago. As for Harry, he was a horrible pick, but he was also so long ago, that even some of the stud WRs from that draft left their teams and aren't with them anymore. In fact, only 2 of the 9 picked in the first 2 rounds are still with their teams.We need QB-OT-WR.
Our recent first round picks at those positions were Mac-Wynn-Harry. Easily the worst first round trio in BBs tenure....maybe in history. Could the Patriots turn Harrison, Alt, or Maye into a pumpkin by simply selecting them?
I should have said most recent rather than recent. I just thought it somewhat ominous that overall BB has been good on 1st rounders, but not as much with the positions where we are currently needy.You're going back quite a ways with Wynn and Harry.

Time moves fast in the NFL. 6 or 7 yrs is an eternity.
On WR it's always been bad because we never make enough picks. So when I say he expends a lot of draft capital on offense, it's for OL, RB, QB and TE. But not WR!!I should have said most recent rather than recent.
