I think you’ll agree that it would have been foolish to trade a kings ransom to get one of them.
I wasn’t a fan of Pierce and Pickens I liked but didn’t love. Seems like this years WR class was really too heavy but died off fast in early rd 2. Not as strONG as years past.
I loved Dyami Brown who seemed like a great fit last year but we passed for Bolton. I don’t think we’re done here. I think they’ll be getting a WR with a higher ceiling in the next draft

At 50? Pickens was the only guy I think I'd have been happy to gamble on there. At least I'm pretty sure that's where I drew my cutoff pre-draft. I think lost in the 'character' stuff is that Pickens may actually have been the best pure route runner in the class. From a pure talent perspective, there's nothing Pickens didn't have. But he clearly didn't impress the staff in the top 30 visit or they wouldn't have risked the trade down. And that trade down got us Kinnard. So there's that.
But when that happened and Pickens went at 53, at 54 I'd have gone with Drake Jackson or Sam Williams and then Tolbert at 63.
