    WTF. Baltimore still has not taken a WR?

    I like some of what I'm reading about the guy, but damn, he's small. I really wanted to see them take one of the tackles there.

    I'm shocked we double deeped. But Calvin Austin is the closest thing to Tyreek Hill.


    Yeah, I said it. :)

    They got to it right away and got the speedy little slot return sweep receiver. We need that type of guy added to the big contested catches guys.
    Love the pick, finally.

    Tyrek, I mean this kid ain't Dri or just a slot receiver. He is legit. I agree with you brice but we have a few deep threats now. He will blow by Hamilton in baltimore.:smiley1::cool:

    Assuming Pickett is good. We'll attack Oline next year.

    Guess he doesn’t want a QB controversy. Zappe is clearly a backup QB.

    Guy was a track star. He’s either going to blow by your D or run bubble screens or end arounds. He’s not going over the middle unless it’s wide open. LoL so far the draft is ok I liked Ridder better and I’m surprised they’re going into the season with the same O line I guess they’re thinking they are going to roll with them until their contract is up and then decide on them.

    What this tells me is that we are not paying Dionte Johnson

    Not sure I see the Dri Archer comparison except for size.

    Archer was an undersized RB we tried to make into a WR. Austin is a pure WR, IMO.

    He could take over the Ray Ray role in the slot.

    For me Austin makes the Pickens pick better.

    At best, he is the replacement for Ray Ray McCloud

    I’m not so sure that dude shattered passing records in college I wouldn’t be surprised if he takes the job from Mac n cheese.

    Our slot better be Pickens or we messed up.


    I also think we should have brought in a salty vet to whip Claypool into shape.

    Amongst other things. We've added 4 WRs this off season. To me that's overkill unless you are planning something.

    Amo assume we are planning something :)

    Do you think Steelers will trade up into the 5th?

    just trying to decide if it’s time to cut some grass

    Wew have adressed the o-line in the draft last year and in FA, I want to see some returns on what we've invested already before spending on it again.
