    Am I the only one a bit underwhelmed by our draft so far? I get the feeling that Idzik could draft me with the next pick and you would see a series of post about how it was a good pick.

    No, it isn't just you. I'm definitely underwhelmed and majorly disappointed so far.

    I am not downtrodden.

    Four picks were made. Two were highly rated at their positions. All four are tough players.

    This draft is so deep that you would have to purposely try to no get 2 players highly rated at their positions with your first 2 picks. The trick is to get those type of players beyond round 2.

    I'm happy with the picks so far. I think Idzik is filling the roster nicely with quality players at need positions.

    What top notch player(s) did they pass on in your opinion, just so it is on the record?

    Disappointed for the first time today. I do t believe these wrs will materialize into any thing special. These guys don't separate and are not explosive. Come on idzik. Give me abbrederis atleast. Throwing these picks away

    Can't comment on Evans because I have not seen him enough. Not sure how you can rip Saunders for not being explosive and then indicate you wanted Abbrederis.

    You have never seen Saunders play with that comment.

    Technically, it's not just me since at least 1 other person has concurred but thanks for your contribution to this discussion.

    I was hopeful after the first two picks. They were solid, I was on board. But the last two have been head-scratchingly bad.

    The negativity here is awful, people saying shit about players they have never seen play.

    Pryor....good pick, we get a Safety that starts immediately. After the end of Rd 1 the best safeties were gone.

    Amaro.....good pick, prefered ASJ, Red Zone threat, will make a difference in the passing game.

    McDougle.....would have been a Rd 2 player if he wasn't hurt and miss most of 2013. It was a reach in rd 3, he would have been available today. Great ball skills and cover ability.

    Saunders.....Electric player, will be a returner and situational player to make big plays.

    Evans - made some big plays for UCLA, not fast but should be a good 3/4 th WR and move up to a possible #2 WR. great potential.

    He shouldn't be falling, he is versatile can play guard or tackle. he was overrated by some in the Rd 2 area. There was even some Rd 1 talk at the begining of the year. Needs some footwork help.

    I feel like we say this every year, but this time Idzik might actually have enough picks to drafts some new fans...

    How can you say that? He only played 3 games (Connecticut, Old Dominion and Florida International) in 2013. Yes he started the season out great but that doesn't guarantee he would have ended the season the same way. For example, at the start of the season guys like Marcus Roberson and Loucheiz Purifoy were ahead of Jaylen Watkins but look what happened.
