Well, wouldn't call Adam Trautman underrated, as it was expensive (four draft picks) to acquire the third rounder to take him; still can't believe teams passed on him that long...

You can roll back the consequences of the two previous drafts overspending, and we could have taken all our draft picks this season with our originally slotted picks...

Nonetheless, it was done, and both Baun and Trautman will play huge roles for us this year and should quickly become fan favorites...

The Montgomery pick basically got us a Willie Snead/Pierre Thomas (okay, I'm exaggerating, slightly) in one player, and he'll be that third/fourth option that will break team's backs, reduce their will...

It's not that my way is the right way, I just make the right way my way...

Y'all, I don't like seeing anyone hurt (except maybe opposing QBs, slightly), but the silver lining while Hill is on ice, Trautman is getting more work development, and Dan Campbell looks like he's earning his check...

That's not good for a guy named Trequan Smith who many considered to be the #3 WR (behind Mike and ES) before the Ty signing.

Don't care what kind of lip service Payton is paying Tre'quan, proof is in the targets, production and Smith, as of this time is, at best, the WR5, and with our TE and RB crew, puts him as the 8th option...

Yep.

Was watching some highlights of the Steelers vs Niner game of last year. I consistently saw Pitt WR make plays & create separation against a fast defense ... Diontae Johnson (was a 3rd rd rookie in 2019). I had to go look at his stats ... 59 rec / 680 yards 5 tds all with a back up QB throwing him the ball. IDK, I guess the Steelers simply have an eye for wide receivers.

I think 2020 will either make or break Tre'. Competition for targets will be fierce this season.

As a heads up, XM's NFL Radio will be having their Training Camp Tour visit with the Saints tomorrow if anyone wants to tune in. I'll post the time as soon as I find out.
