Stills is used for one thing.....deep passes. Snead is a slot.

Of course you aren't going to strike gold every single year. But you can't just say they're all "PS fodder", as if none of them have any chance. History proves you wrong.

2007
PT
2008
Moore

2009

2010
Ivory

2011

2012

2013
Bush

2014(the last season with Pace)
Coleman(maybe)

We're talking about a trend where under Reese and Pace, the FO had a propensity for landing UDFA gems. Who's responsible for scouting the UDFAs?

You just refuse to get see the point. I know when those guys were signed. I asked you WHY it matters when or where they were signed. I don't care who scouts these players, because it's a crap shoot. But there is no risk, and every now and then you get a good one. So you sign a bunch of guys and see if anyone sticks.

Pace has been in Chicago for a few years now. How's that going? You want him back here scouting for us? Nobody has a propensity for landing UDFA gems. It's just something that happens, or it doesn't. Yet you want to poo poo any discussion of UDFA'S now, while giving credit to some guy who's in Chicago bombing with some truly mystifying decisions.

Yep, that was my insinuation without having to point out the obvious to him. That's a funny wiki page, too. Good stuff.

Because thats all Stills can do, run deep routes. Snead can run every route and has better hands than Stills.

Snead is better undoubtedly.

I don't see any in the current crop who will make the team. Not even close.

Arthur Maulet 5096 189 4.62

I do not see it nor do I understand it.

Why all this mighty mouse love for DBs in a division like the NFC South?

I hate it
