Entirely false lol.

But you also think that if we don't draft any of the 10 (out of 400) people you want then it'll be a complete failure anyways so what's the point?

Not true. This draft is very deep at a variety of positions and there are many players I like, all the way into the 7th round. I said, if we didn't trade for a veteran #1 receiver or we didn't trade up into the first round to get one of the top receivers, (London, Williams, Olave, Wilson or even Dotson,) then the offseason would be a complete failure. I believe we largely have not improved the WR position to this point and last season we had one of, if not the worst position group in the entire NFL.

He's not a 4.20, 40 flyer guy on the sidelines. He's a YAC guy. You play him nice and tight to the LOS, create natural pick plays and rub routes and let him take a quick pass underneath while he's gaining momentum.

It's scary how infatuated this fanbase is when it comes to just giving up on 1st and 2nd RD draft picks. Good lord.

That's the problem. He actually has to catch the ball before he can start running. He fails to complete the basic aspect of being a receiver, which is catching the ball. 

I don't think it says anything about the fanbase wanting to give up on first and second round selections. I think it says way more about the front office who made those bad picks to begin with. People wouldn't be clamoring to get rid of those players if they actually produced on the field.
