Yeah, a smaller slot WR makes more sense than any of the 6'2 guys.

NFL.com gave him a 4th round grade.

Yeah, Antonio Brown didn't make any big plays.

If royr and jd1020 don't like him, I'm really warming up to the pick.


:D

Green can't block for shit, but he's a huge target for Rivers. Love the pick. Love all our picks so far. Don't think anyone has drafted better than us this year.

We don't need a deep threat WR because our QB can't throw it deep. He struggles with anything over 15 yards.

He'll be groomed to replace Gates. Very good pick.

You guys are having a good draft, but it's not the best. There are a few teams who are well ahead of your draft, IMO.

Tampa has absolutley crushed the rest of the league with what they've done in the draft and free agency.

Brady Quinn can throw it deep.

Racist.

Wiley's probably going to be a special teamer who gets broke in week 1.

i think wylie was picked to help arenas with kick returns....which is yet another thing mccluster failed at

I am still blown way Washington gave up a ton of picks to move up and draft RGIII then used one of their remaining picks on another QB.

To the other team. 9 times out of 10.

a very good point we all should remember

Didn't McCluster fumble the opening kickoff last season?

We needed WR. We have three receivers and one special teams player in Copper. We needed a 4th and we needed more speed. Wylie fits that bill.

steelers get ta'amu in 4th....nice value

There goes Jaye Howard to Seattle. A little higher than I thought (I had him as a 5th rounder) but I think he'll be a very good, solid rotational guy who can play both DT and DE. Very good pick for them. Underrated guy, IMO.

yea cause with Matt Cassel we are in 4 WR sets all the time.

we arent the Packers or Giants. This pick basically makes the other 2 guys on the team we used 2nd rounders on look stupid

we needed speed...you may not like the guy, but he's the quality we needed

we have 2 big first round picks at WR, and a perfect slot in breaston

That team knows how to draft.

you're such a negative asshole, always bagging on pioli...you dick

McCluster was going to be that 4th WR.

Do you really think he was going to get many touches running the ball with JC and Hillis?

Go Gators!

I like the Wylie pick now that I understand it.

the mccluster pick was stupid the minute it happened...

we've been drafting and signing his replacements ever since

yes, he had a couple killer fumbles....he's an asshole

You're approaching your daily limit of stupid already. Probably should stop for now and save some for our 5th round pick.

Hopefully they can land Chapman in the 5th.

We needed a 4th WR thats a fact. Wylie is the type of WR we needed.

Huge asshole.

No, McCluster wasn't going to be that 4th WR.

He's the 3rd RB in the rotation, and no, he wasn't going to get many touches.

The WR experiment ended after his rookie season.

Do you understand it as being detrimental to the franchise?

No he wasn't. He's a RB and that's not going to change. They tried WR and it failed. He's our #3 RB and probably gets touches with Charles coming off the knee injury.

Bengals are slaying it this year.

I'm not. They understand it is a QB league and went out and did something about it. Meanwhile Pioli .........??

Desean jackson. Greg jennings.

Yep. Them & Tampa leading the way.

bengals take orson charles


i'm not impressed with this guy....not a blocker, not super fast...meh

I suspect that, with the coaching change, the McCluster experiment is drawing to a close. Time to admit the mistake and move on.

yea but now hes just a 3RD RB

this dude will take all his special teams duties. So McCluster could very well be doing even less than he already does. And that's what makes it awful. using a 36 overall pick for a ****ing soon to be 3rd stringer buried on the depth chart lol

An inch and two inches taller respectively.

Pioli doesn't make mistakes.:evil:

I'm glad someone besides me understands this. :thumb:

he's the worst pick of pioli's era by far...at least jackson is getting better

magee and brown on the list...poe to be determined

they're gonna have a party at radio city music hall?

Looks to me like McCluster is entrenched at RB behind Charles.

They dumped most of the 2009 draft fairly quickly. :shrug:

People need to understand what a sunk cost is, accept certain players as sunk costs, and deal with it.

Trading for Cassel was the worst use of a draft pick. McCluster was second worst especially with all the talent in that draft.

I really like what we are doing too. We have skill players all over our defense and we have skill players all over our offense... minus the QB spot. But outside of Tannehill, nothing here impresses me much more than Stanzi. Couple this draft with what we have in place, and all of the pieces are there... when we get the QB. That may have to be next year unless Stanzi/Quinn can come to the rescue... and one of them just might.

And Hillis.

He is shit.

why is lombardi and lacanfora talking about college players like they're scouts?

they know nothing

Yup.

Maybe they can get a low pick for him, like they did with McGee

I'm not pissed at the draft, all the picks make some sense and can be rationalized. We're not blowing it out of the water, though, like those teams. Our draft in 3 years could look great but right now I'd give it a C+. What we do in round 5 could bump it up to a B-.

Two Arky WRs gone. When will the 3rd go?

Jarius Wright to the Vikes. wish the Chiefs had taken him instead if they were gonna go WR

He doesn't add any dimension we don't already have, IMO. Breaston does better what Wright would do.

Let me clarify.

A 5' nothing WR is not a legitimate deep threat with Matt Cassel as his QB.

Skins on the clock. Take another QB!

I agree with this. This isn't an impact draft per say, but it gives us quality depth which is needed.

McNutt

Everybody seems to be thrilled with Pittsburgh's draft over in that thread. What exactly did Pittsburgh do defferently that we did other that take names that were more recoginzable?

McNutt makes ZERO sense. Why would you add another 6'3" 4.55 WR?

Kellen Moore is sitting around with nothing to do....

McNutt makes sense for a team like Indy or Redskins.

With their first 4 picks, the Steelers have taken 3 players I had going to us, just not in the same order. I had us taking DeCastro, then Ta'amu, then Spence. There's a reason why the Steelers contend for championships almost every year while we haven't won a playoff game in almost 20 years. . .

I said in that thread I don't like Pitt's 2nd & 3rd picks.

I think Mike Adams is stiff, struggles with speed rushers, and isn't exceptionally strong to be a road-grating RT.

Sean Spence is ok, but he's not very fast and he's not a thumper. He wouldn't unseat DJ and doesn't make sense in Belcher's position.

I agree. He makes sense for Miami too.

Yep. One plays RB, the other WR. We just added more speed. I don't know why this picks means they need to get rid of Dex.

Do you think taking Vontaze Burfict in the 5th would be a good choice? Yes he has off the field problems and failed drug test (like Houston) however as a 5th round pick, I think it is worth the gamble. I doubt he makes it to the 7th round and would be surprised if he makes it to the 6th honestly. He has to much potential to pass up and contracts can be written to protect the chiefs organization if he pulls the same off field shit as he did in college. We took a gamble with Houston and it paid off, might be the same with Burfict and if the gamble works, talk about an amazing LB core!

Ben Roethlisberger?

yeah, QB

No.

Since 2007, Devon Wylie has touched the ball only 58 times. It resulted in almost 1,000 yards, 7 td's, and a lot of excitement. Wylie missed the 2010 season due to a surgically repaired navicular fracture in his left foot. In 2011, he will return to the field potentially faster than the 4.25 forty that he ran in 2009

I like him.

Nice pick by Cleveland in James-Michael Johnson. He would have fit here.

he's terrible and will be lucky to be drafted

i'd use a 7th on him

Because he is a shitty RB who now has no other value to the team.
