    Good question. For as much as we keep Dri as far away from our offense as possible, and we have comparable talent to replace him as our KR, I really can't answer who we would replace him with. Maybe another OL, since we are thin there? We'll need a spot for Bryant, and that swap would make sense.

    i think it is frustration over the issues drafting players who will have an impact especially on defense. looking at who was drafted after archer there are some productive corners (they are at least playing). Benwikere from Carolina, Breeland from Was, Desir from Cleveland, Colvin in JAX. Devonta Freeman was 6 picks later. Ross Cockrell was a few picks after that so I guess that has worked out. We got Tuitt before Archer and Bryant after. In this context Archer's impact has been a disappointment. It doesn't help that the coaching staff crowned him a dynamic threat before he made a play. As the article said - spending a third rd pick on a "gimmick player"

    maybe we should cut the guy that picked him instead of a corner or safety. :shrug::cool:
