[Whatever]

We can get small fast receivers later in the draft. Or just play some of the guys we've been drafting and sitting. It's like our corner situation. Some guys want us to take another corner. Some pundits, too. I can't fathom that either. We've got high picks, play em.

I hope the fo spreads the love and gives the defense someone opposing coaches have to game plan around. Just hoping opposing quarterbacks get bored and throw a bad pass isn't a great approach.

Well, on the DL, we have 2 4th rounders that haven't played a snap and a 3rd rounder who's been slow working into the rotation.  At WR, we've got a 2nd round pick that played decent, but not great, a 6th rounder that was #2 to Treadwell of all people in college, and an UDFA.

I wouldn't take Ross over the big three DE's, but they are likely gone by our pick.  We had one of the worst scoring offenses in the league last year, so guys that can put points on the board is a big time need.  Ross scored on roughy 1 out of every 5 touches in college, so he checks that box in a big way.  When they say he is a threat to score any time he touches the ball, it's not an exaggeration in his case.
