Look at Pacheco. The guy is a rookie in Andy's system and is already the starter. He has been an impact player from day 1.
Hardman in his rookie year showed flashes and made impact plays. I just don't see it with Moore. Eye test tells me he will be a servicable backup.

Um, Veach wanted Kadarius last season, just didn't pan out. I think Brett can evaluate WR talent just fine if Kad was on his radar as a 'must-have.'
And I still think Skyy is going to pan out. He needs more work than I originally thought, but just check those clips in the OP; he can damn sure run a route. Just needs to make an adjustment to play wll in the NFL.
I'm curious if anyone's watched the A-22 to see what's really going on with Skyy. i know early in the season he was getting open, Pat just wasn't looking in his direction a lot. Would like to sneak a peek at the A-22 and find out what else has been hampering his success on the field, because he was doing well in preseason and in practice. [Reply]

Agreed. Bert has liked Toney from the get-go. We just weren't going to be able to pick him last season. Moore is going to be fine and should see an uptick now with JJSS recovering. [Reply]

It'll unquestionably be his biggest opportunity - they occupy similar spaces on the field, IMO.
Different methods, for sure. But you could use similar route combinations.

Yeah I've read similar stuff from the Giants around here. He was one of the few players that weren't on the block this summer. Things changed between him and the staff it seems. [Reply]

So, we don't actually have Nick Bolton on our team? [Reply]

I think that's a really hard stance to justify, simply by how he played this draft. He traded behind 3 WR-needy teams, and just waited to take whoever was left. Draft with conviction, and go after the guys you want, rather than let other teams make the decision for you. [Reply]

Well, the Toney pickup was excellent . That's something Bert exceles at, trades. But on draft day, he can't seem to hit on a WR with the pick available to him. No ifs or buts. Guys are available and you pick the wrong player.
I really think he was going to draft Alec Pierce if the Colts queerish gm hadn't gotten in the way.. [Reply]

Moore has not helped himself with 2 fumbles on punt returns, one of which arguably cost the team a victory in a 3 point loss. Really hope that Colts game does not come back to bite them in the ass for playoff seeding by the time we finish the regular season. [Reply]

Pickens is the comparison, we took Karlaftis right before Watson went off the board. That being said, I really wanted Watson but we shall see. One game doesn't make him great. [Reply]
