All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

Personally, I was underwhelmed by our third round pick.
Marvin McNutt, Tommy Streeter and Juron Criner are still on the board.
All could have been drafted ahead of TJ Graham.
I can believe Criner's still out there as he ran a really bad forty time. One name you didn't list is Dwight Jones from UNC which has produce some good WRs in Greg Little and Hakeem Nicks of late. Granted they were drafted higher than Jones is going to go but worth a look at none the less.

we did not need average WR's we needed a speed burner and we got that with TJ
We already have a solid #2 WR in David Nelson,. He hauled in 61 catches last year in his 2nd season. Not bad production from our #2.. He is going to be better this year.
We have Easley as a wild card, may or may not make it, but he is still in play. and few other players on the roster that are young and gaining experience. Most WR's in the NFL take 2 - 3 years to develop. Any of those players you listed are going to fall into that category. TJ Graham will get play time because he will return kickoffs and punts, as well as be the field stretcher we need, while Johnson, and Nelson do the majority of the #1 and #2 work.
more importantly is improving our OL and give our WR's more time to get open and downfield

Nelson isn't a guy who lined up much on the outside last season. While he put up good reception totals I think it's more due to a lack to having a legitmate #2 WR and TE option (as to me Scott Chandler a blocking/red zone TE and nothing more).

I guess I fail to see how a 2nd year WR who has 61 catches is only due to a lack of a true #2 WR TE option ??
So if we draft a another #2 WR what kind of production do you expect as a rookie ??? Do you really expect more then 61 catches ?
If anything injury depletion along our OL and Fitz's injury probably caused Nelsons numbers to be less then they could of been.
I have faith in Nelson as our #2..... I wouldn't mind more competition either, but our need at OT meant we weren't drafting one until rd #3.

When I'm looking for a #2 Wr. I'm looking for a guy who can play on the outside and stretch a defense. See Alvin Harper as the ideal model. To me Nelson is a good guy to use in the slot or a guy can cause a good mismatch on a dime CB because of his size and not his speed.
