Calvin Riddley? Do we want a WR at our first pick?

[MonsterD]

I like him.
Ive said he is the only WR Id take at 19.
BUT
the lack of production from 1st Rd WRs over the last 2 or 3 drafts is frightening.
We need to also draft to compete in the East.
°DT Maurice Hurst
°DT VV
°OG Isaiah Wynn
°OG Will Hernandez
get stout in the trenches again...make the Oline NASTY again or Strengthen our DL so we can get 3rd down stops.
If Hitchens leaves....LB Rashaan Evans should be considered.
Get our WR in the 2nd or 3rd Rd.
But if Ridley is there...JJ is taking him.

In general for drafting history WR is one of the worst positions to draft in the 1st, but, DT is even worse.

and DTs from Washington going back to Steve Emtman.
my preference at DT is Hurst...but Im really thinkin about Isaiah Wynn or Will Hernandez.

 

[Parcells4Life]

Why do we need WR? Dak hasn’t proved he can hit deep balls consistently.

Chris Hogan would still be a 4th-5th rounder if drafted TODAY because people see if you just use good enough scheme you can make any WR a star.

We already have the necessary talent at WR, if the QB and WRs are used correctly. I wouldn’t be opposed at upgrading TWill and his body catches but best to get a 1T or LB first if Hitchens leaves.

 

[stilltheguru88]

6 catches, 82 yards, 0 TDs

in a season where he only had 14 catches for 218 yards and 2 TDs, I don't see why he would be anyone we would want.

People saying all types of dumb stuff in this thread lol. First Julio comparison then that. I blame Garrett

 

[Redball Express]

What about him reminds you of Julio Jones?

His speed and escapability.

Great hands too.

He would be to the receiving core what Zeke is to the running game.

Exciting.

He would move DEZ to second banana..

and keeping DEZ might sseem unnecessary after this year.

And to me..

we will never fix the defense until we shift money to that side of the ball.

DEZs deal would be one to cut to do this.

 

[SportsGuru80]

I think the need at WR is glaring.

No speed..

too many possession receivers..

this guy is said to be available at 19 because of all the QBs being taken early.

He reminds me of Julio Jones.

What do you think?

Nothing about Ridley reminds me of Julio Jones. He reminds me more of an Isaac Bruce.

DEFENSE.

Hey The Reverend was a stud. We could use an Isaac Bruce like we.

 

[exciter]

With his undersized frame I think he's going to have issues with press coverage until he can prove he can beat it consistently on this level. Its something he wasn't able to do playing LSU.

 

[CATCH17]

There is too many other players that I think make us better then a WR.

I would even say the TE Dallas Goedert helps us more then a WR.



Edmunds, Wynn, Hernandez, Vea, Hurst are all guys I think help us immediately.

 

[noshame]

Ridley's the only guy I want in the first round I like him a lot and Iand I know I'm going to commit treason here but I would even move up a couple spots to grab him if I have to.
He's gone then I'll take one of the top two DT's

I want to stud front four and Speedy linebackers Alla 1990s

With the draft being in dallas I am actually expecting a trade up. Splash type thing.

Would be great but projected to go earlier than 19. He's a top 10 talent.

That would be cool. So maybe Irving is held out for trade bait with a 2'nd round tender. I assume the 2,nd round offer can be traded this year or packaged. Not sure on that. Sure package the incoming 2'nd rounder with #19 and move up for WR or SS. Finding a partner to dance might be the sticking point

 

[SportsGuru80]

Oh I definitely wouldn't complain honestly at the end of the day.

 

[Pants]

Alabama player....NOOOOOO

rarely do one of them produce in the NFL at a high level...I am guessing because there are, you know, rules in the NFL and, you know, drug testing.....

 

[Sandyf]

Frankly DJ Chark would be a better WR and then maybe Eqanmieous St. Brown, Chark would take Williams spot and St. Brown take Butler spot.

What do you think?

Yes, and i think if he reaches 13 i think Dallas should trade up with Washington because he's not getting past GB. He doesnt remind me one bit of julio jones tho. He reinds me more of antonio brown.
