Health be damned. Bateman was healthy until he got to us. We've been wasting picks and seasons with these wrs we've been awful at drafting. Own up to the mistakes and get players you know you can't scout. That thinking (and a stubborn oc) is what got us to year 6 with only 1 wr going over 1k on Lamars rookie deal... and he's not even here anymore.
Dont forget likely. 1 of the TEs has to be on the move... if rumors are true
Batemen and Hollywood are both solid guys when healthy. I think EDC really good at picking out early round talent at the skill positions. Ozzie , not so much
I wouldn't say really good but he's better... which isn't saying much.
I meant my Packers.
Some of us haven't forgotten it. Some of us aren't advocating for Hopkins at all.
Which part? I'm advocating for getting 7 elite playmakers for Lamar.
Another thing to think about is Batemen’s future. How’s his attitude going to be when he becomes the 3rd/4th option with Andrews, DHop, OBJ, and himself. Add in our desire to establish JK and Bates targets will be really down. Is he still going to want to be here? He already called out EDC once on Twitter.
Sure. Don't think anybody is concerned with his feelings though, since we need max redundancy with injury-risk WRs up and down the roster. Nevermind the fact that none of it matters if the franchise QB, who isn't under contract, doesn't play the whole season anyway.
Except we aren’t saying that. We were happy to land Odell, and we really want hopkins, not for redundancy, but because then we’re talking about 3 targets that excel in bailing out the qb with tough catches, and we’re tired of seeing Lamar have to do it all himself or we lose.
Do you still think this is funny? Because it’s not
I'm not interested in what other people find funny. I'm interesting in what they find exhausting.
I think you can look in the mirror for that answer
lol I think setting the bar at "beat the Chiefs" is kind of dumb. Lets start with like beat the Bengals. Or something that involves winning like an actual playoff game first. We haven't earned the right to even have a conversation about the Chiefs.
So can you.
Well especially when you consider that you effectively already have three quality WRs on the roster, in Bateman, OBJ and Andrews. I'm fine adding another, and think we should prioritize doing so. I'm just not interested in it being an expensive veteran who costs draft pick or picks and has similar durability concerns to the WRs already on the roster (and the QB for that matter).
