SPEED.
With Winston’s arm, speedy WRs might be in need.

Once again, failure is inherent to a degree in the drafting world. You mention "same mistakes". What are those "same mistakes"? In your ultra critical, point-of-view definition, a mistake may not be a mistake to others. You appear to define anything that is not excellence, or not according to your wishes, as being a mistake or failure when it comes to the Payton/Loomis drafts. I know that is an overstatement on my part, but you must know what I mean.

And who has used "inexact" as an excuse for failure? It is not an excuse. It is a descriptive adjective describing the basic nature of the NFL draft.

A fullback, a blocking TE and whoever the hell this guy is... And people thought kicking the can down the road wouldn’t catch up to us because of LoOmIsNoMiCs!

His tape is pretty impressive.

Big guy, catches with his hands, breaks tackles and has decent speed.

You must be confusing this guy with someone else. Jalen is small (5'10/165) however he's a burner.

4.27 40 guy.

Mike Mayock is a garbage GM. Don’t trust these “draft analysts”... They get an actual GM job like Mayock and have no idea what they’re doing.

To be fair, scouts/talent evaluators vs personnel men are two different sides of the same coin...

Mayock knows talent, but he may be out of his depth right now as GM...

Then there's whether or not Coach Gruden is doing his job to maximize putting the talent in the best possible position to win...

My argument has been that Payton spends too much time in evaluating and making personnel decisions and not coaching players up as he did earlier in his tenure...

Payton needs to heed his own locker room propaganda - #DoYourJob...
