DawgTalkers.net Forums The Archives 2013 NFL Season NFL Draft (2013) Prisco's grades FWIW

I said how many, not name one

The success rate for those guys is very low.

plus we had extra picks to give up anyway

TB obviously wanted Richardson (they immediately trade down after our trade-up --- and they trade back into the 1st for D.Martin who is a poor-man's Richardson)

at least Richardson is someone we can get excited about in the lead-up to the season.

The fact is, people can continue saying we gave up too much and that Richardson would have been there at 4 blah blah blah, but no one knows.

No one on this board was in the draft room.

Like I posted earlier, the conversation may have very well gone like this ...

"Look, we know Tampa is offering you more, but this is the best we can do, we're happy to stay at 4 and take Kalil"

Then Minnesota decided to take LESS from us, only go back to 4, so they didn't lose Kalil.

Did that happen? I don't know, but no one else knows how that played out either

This draft is ridiculously deep at WR.

I understood your point. No one expected Irvin to go in the 1st round but if you were targeting him in the 2nd guess what - you lose out because Seattle jumped the gun.

Which btw, I think was much more of a reach than Weeden.
