Trading up feels weird, but seriously... it's a 5th... who gives a &%$@. Its nothing. Literally (figuratively), nothing.
Are you trying to !@#$ off yoho.
:munch:
Didn't mean that as combative, lol, just that yoho likes his later rounders.

I guess we will have stuff to talk about during this quarantine. Who does Love play like? How high is his upside?

Not like we moved up a top QB prospect. Peter King didnt even think Love would go in Round one. Yet we shoot rodgers the bird, give up an additional 4th? for him, and dont fill any massive holes on the team on night one. Sweet.
Exactly. We didn't need to move up for Love to begin with. And as mentioned, are we going for it all or are we not going for it all. This was the draft to fall in our laps, WR heavy, biggest need, biggest opportunity to get a big difference maker.

We still can... But this is absolutely not what I was expecting tonight. I could see OT, TE, CB over Jordan even.

It's a 4th. But yes, your point remains to an extent. It is The Pick that all my favorite Day 3 guys fit into as I mentioned earlier.
I just mean for a QB, a guy you have to have a whole lot of conviction to pick, you do it.

i wanted Queen bad as he was still available. Ravens grabbing him just confirms to me will be great.

Can only laugh at this pick right now - just so dumb.

Pat McAfee live youtube draft show has been so good.

The issue is Jordan not being a good QB to make that move for, but... Was it even necessary. I don't think it even was. Gute has moved into win now mode since he's taken over, until this pick in the biggest WR draft in years... That's what's so shocking.

What OT, TE or CB was available at #26 who is better than Love? I really thought we were moving up for Queen.

Gute must feel he can get his WR tomorrow.

Will be very curious to hear what Gutey says. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't.

exactly. Rodgers was a historic slide. Peter King said today on Mad Dog radio that he didnt see Love being drafted tonight. Its not the same at all. Great point.

Someone that has a shot of helping this team win a super bowl in the next couple of years. Love isn't that. Any of those positions would fill a need, no matter how much of a stretch the pick would have been. Love does nothing but let this entire organization know that we're looking at the future first and foremost.

It's definitely not a fair comparison.

My guess is he will look to draft Crosbys replacement at K tomorrow.

Maybe Love can run a good route. Or drop into coverage.
