Burks might now be the top WR off the board in FF rookie drafts. 

 

[-OZ-]

Admittedly,  it seems like a joke to Titans fans

Went to a horror movie quick. 

I’d be more accepting of Moore. 

 

[IHEARTFF]

6 wr in 11 picks and 2 wr trades and 1 wr signs a 57MM guarantee

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED

lol rodgers

 

[Capella]

What are the Cardinals and Packers doing?

 

[-OZ-]

Burks might now be the top WR off the board in FF rookie drafts. 

Ah, no. I’ll take Williams still. Long term. 

 

[Grahamburn]

Brilliant move by the Titans. 

 

[msudaisy26]

Going to want?  Already locked in a new deal for 4 years and $100MM.  $57MM guaranteed.  

Wow. I hate it now. 

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Trying to understand the absurdity and reality of teams popping it into Neutral...

Titans trade AJB for #18 overall and settle for the 5th WR off the board...

-Where does this make them better anywhere as a football team?

Horn Please

Gonna need a 2nd Horn for this one

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Ah, no. I’ll take Williams still. Long term. 

Short term notsomuch, but I can see your point. 

 

[SoBeDad]

Side note.

The Browns made a trade a few months ago to land Amari Cooper for a 5th round pick.

Good point. The WR market has exploded. How much better is Brown than Cooper? 

 

[nysfl2]

Quiet first hour of the draft, then things just went absolutely insane

 

[fred_1_15301]

Wow. I hate it now. 

Why do you hate it more?  The fact that they immediately signed him for 4 years makes it a much more pallatable move IMO.

They obviously didn't want to pay him. 4 years $100, 57m guaranteed

Packers are getting #### raped by drama queen Rodgers.

I hate it less now. 

 

[FreeBaGeL]

I think teams trading draft picks or premiere players for cap savings are crazy.

Doubly so in the modern era with teams like the Rams demonstrating that the cap is basically irrelevant and creative accounting can get around basically anything.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

What are the Cardinals and Packers doing?

Watching a lot of ho hum WRs come off the board. 

Is Watson and Skyy More still on the board? How about Dotson from PSU...all superior to several WRs taken already, they will not line up as they are coming off the board, I can almost assure you.

Ummm….not spending $25MM per year for a WR who will never be healthy?  That’s playing chess.  Eagles are playing checkers.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I’d be more accepting of Moore. 

Their fans did not look happy during that pick 

 

[G-King]

Would Burks been better at that pick for Eagles on a rookie deal and still have your 3rd?  Lot of money spent. Comparisons will be interesting in a couple years between Burke and Brown.

 

[sho nuff]

Love to be a fly on the Packers draft room wall right now. 

Watching people move up to take WRs many said weren’t really number 1s?

The brown stuff is interesting…50 something guaranteed right away?   Thats a luxury teams have who arent paying a qb big money (plus a left tackle and others)

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

With every passing day, Mel Kiper looks more like Sam the Eagle on the Muppet Show. 

 

[Mister CIA]

Christian Kirk's contract broke the NFL.

 

[mcintyre1]

So... actually good WR class, or product of a weak draft and the WR money firehose going around the league right now?

 

[Jayded]

AFC South is going to be bruuuuutal this year. Tennessee doing weird things. Jags two years in a row at the top but maybe a few more wins. Houston is bad. Colts should take it just by having a pulse, right?

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

Right

 

[Boston]

I think teams trading draft picks or premiere players for cap savings are crazy.

Doubly so in the modern era with teams like the Rams demonstrating that the cap is basically irrelevant and creative accounting can get around basically anything.

And a new TV contract on the horizon.

Dotson was drafted by the Commanders.

Right

Right off the bat, availability is the best ability. AJB has a pretty lengthy history of getting banged up. 

 

[Han Solo]

2 and 12...Detroit Lions

Edge-Hutchinson...Home Run IMHO, think he will do great going from Univ of Michigan to the Detroit Lions, Dan Campbell is going to love this guy. 

And call me silly but I think Jameson Williams is far and away the best potential of any of the 4 WRs drafted around or with him, he should have gone 1st so i love what Detroit did but i also am not sure what they traded to get up to 12 but so far so good for them. 

"A/A+"

Not a lot to choose from this year, great job

With the 2nd and 12th you would hope right?

 

[Grahamburn]

I hate it less now. 

Exactly. They just got the same player for $20M less per year and got additional picks for their trouble.

I agree but a little concerning Williams body language during that interview was absolutely horrible, he did not look happy at all. The Lions gave up very little to move up that far IMO.

 

[Mister CIA]

Hollywood up

Bateman up

AJ Brown down

Devonta Smith down

Tennessee uh

Stash Tylan Wallce if you can.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

So... actually good WR class, or product of a weak draft and the WR money firehose going around the league right now?

The latter. TEN just showed that with a gigantic highlight marker.

 

[SoBeDad]

To Watson and Skyy, add Pickens and Pierce, as guys with as much potential as many WRs drafted earlier. 

 

[Keith R]

So... actually good WR class, or product of a weak draft and the WR money firehose going around the league right now?

Some will pan out but if I had to pick, I would say the latter

 

[sho nuff]

Its a noce deeo wr class with unsure who the #1s are (love Jameson Williams though once he is back from the ACL)…but think teams see what WRs are getting right now and prefer going young and cheap.

 

[The General]

Pickett has ruined his girlfriend's Instagram evening so far.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Stash Tylan Wallce if you can.

Robert Woods just became a whole lot more attractive. 

 

[Capella]

Exactly. They just got the same player for $20M less per year and got additional picks for their trouble. 

Same player? You are assuming a LOT there. 

 

[Boston]

Right off the bat, availability is the best ability. AJB has a pretty lengthy history of getting banged up. 

After I traded him, I felt relieved because he looks like he got hurt every play...was too much tension for a hobby.

 

[msudaisy26]

Why do you hate it more?  The fact that they immediately signed him for 4 years makes it a much more pallatable move IMO.  

Great talent. Wait unbelievable talent, but can't stay healthy. Hope I am wrong, but my prediction is 2 years from now the Eagles hate this move. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Same player? You are assuming a LOT there. 

Yeah, I mean proof will be in the pudding, but they saved a boatload of $. 

 

[mcintyre1]

Robert Woods just became a whole lot more attractive. 

Felt like I overpaid for him a bit with a mid 2nd in a 16 team league, but feeling a lot better about that now.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

Exactly. They just got the same player for $20M less per year and got additional picks for their trouble. 

Same player?!  Just draft the 5th best player at his position in a weak draft class and he's automatically as good as the all-pro that he physically compares to?  It's that easy?

Why are the Ravens paying LJax?  Just trade him to the Steelers and draft Malik Willis here.  Same player and you get some draft picks to boot...

 

[Ministry of Pain]

They obviously didn't want to pay him. 4 years $100, 57m guaranteed

What would they want to pay a premier WR?

We have to stop patting teams on the back like we ourselves are involved in any way with the cash flow or the $212M they have to spend...how do we know not paying a WR top dollar is the way to go? Does Tennessee have any hardware to back up why we should pat them on the back and assume they know more?

Or are we comparing the absurd money we resent that folks make in the NFL in comparison to the piddly checks we all make that barely cover a weeks salary by some of these guys?

Perspective is all I'm saying. I don't care what the players make any more, Tennessee got a lot worse getting rid of AJB, they didn't upgrade with Burks IMHO...AJB has looked very special at times in his first 3 seasons, also battled some injuries but he has the goods. 

Major downgrade for 2022...MAJOR

In fact now they should trade Tannehill because they are not sniffing another AFCC right now 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Great talent. Wait unbelievable talent, but can't stay healthy. Hope I am wrong, but my prediction is 2 years from now the Eagles hate this move. 

40% chance of injury, graded a 5 for durability, if you believe in such things.

Yeah I guess we'll know in a couple years.  Eagles are banking on talent and him staying healthy.  If that happens, they made out like bandits.  

 

[Grahamburn]

Same player? You are assuming a LOT there. 

This entire process is speculation. I’m on the Titans side here.
