I cant tell you how much I disagree with this...Deshawn and Garçon would still be the 1st and 2nd best WR on this team (reed is a oft injured tight end). The skins are in official free fall!

He didn't say they were better.

He just said they have alot of upside....and he's correct.

He is correct like RG3 had more upside that wilson...

He's legit in terms of talent: 6-4, sub 4.4 forty etc.

He's just inexperienced as a WR (former QB)

Very big upside though.

I'm pretty thrilled with the Terrelle Pryor signing. The dude can leap and catch. He's a playmaker.

The alternative was to pay big money to two soon-to-be 31 year old receivers.

Nah, I'll go with the talented young guys.

Wow. Maybe Terrell Prior can play NT.

With Logan off the board, somehow the Slurs' DL is WORSE than last year.

Might as well just install a turnstile.

Disappointed to miss out on Logan. The Chiefs must be moving on from Poe. He's a better and more versatile player than Logan, but I guess his injury history scared them off from committing a big contract to him.

I wonder if we can afford Poe? He's not a great pass rusher but he can stay on the field for passing downs.

So... um... Kirk never asked to be traded. He asked if they were going to trade him and Snyder told him we wanted him and were going to try and replace his weapons. Mortensen got it wrong then the whole media ran way the **** away with it and used their incorrect conclusion to smear our franchise.

Kirk isn't mad about being tagged either. He's making more guaranteed money on the tag than he would if he hit the market.

The NFL media is trash.

Yea, that's a no brainer. No offense to Jax and Garcon...they were excellent here. But the Skins have gone cheaper, younger, and more upside at WR. They can now use that money to build other parts of the team.

I heard a Pryor interview on the radio. He flat out said he signed with the Skins because they clearly wanted him more, and being wanted was important to him. Kudos to the front office active dumpster fire for putting on a good front to make this happen. He also didn't want to sell himself short by signing a long term deal now. He wanted to prove his worth, similar to Kirk. Apparently the two have already talked a bunch.

We're not trading Cousins unless a team gives us multiple first round picks, including one high enough to actually replace him.

Maybe we'll just keep cycling first round picks between WRs and QB choices - eventually one of them has to work out (and then we'll blow the contract negotiations). Why on earth would anyone look to upgrade their line with a first round pick!

If Cleveland gave us their top pick, you don't think they'd bite?

To be fair, our 1st round pick last year was a lineman.

DeShaun Watson is not going to be there at 17.
