If we take a WR in the first round, this is the guy I want.

Ridley isn't.

Elite at taking hits. Interesting trait.

It's difficult to keep up watters32, since you seemingly have conversations with yourself and post 3-5x in a row, but the only knock I've seen you make against Ridley is his size. So what does their "eliteness" have to do with the fact that they are of comparable size?

The franchise would regret taking him at 9/10. We have no need for that Gumby style of body here, he's not better than what we already have. As a receiver and run blocker.

The 49ers drafting wrs is like the curse of oak island. You can dig and dig all you want, but you'll never find what you were looking for.

We've drafted two of the top 5 wide receivers of all time....and one of them is the GOAT

Gene Washington, John Taylor, Crabtree, Clark. It hasn't been all bad. I do agree that in the last couple of decades it has been weak but to discount 50 years as terrible is wrong. Also if you hit on two of the best ever it's hard to consider it a weak position.

Plus hitting on rice had us set for 16 years.

Whatever the Niner WR draft history, I don't see them spending their #1 pick on CR. If there's a team desperate for a WR it's the Bears...Trubisky doesn't have much receiving talent to throw to...and they just hired KC's OC as their new HC, so I'm thinking they could well go after him.

Yep, Kevin White's injury history grows longer every year.

I'm hoping the Bears fall in love with Sutton. Maybe they see Alshon Jeffrey and go with the big target. I did take the Bears as the only team in the top 10 that would be a threat to take Ridley.

I think that might have been the case under Fox, but with Nagy they'll be shopping similar to us, route running will be a priority

Yeah, I see Chicago reaching for a WR, too. They need help there and there isn't anything in FA that looks promising for anyone.

The lowest on that totem pull might be Baldwin, and Baldwin would 💩 all over ridleys abilities.

Ahh, it's just like you to make all these claims but never really provide real insight.

Tell me why do all your post have to be so confrontational?

I mean I could say, "hey Calvin Ridley is most dominant receiver of all time" then go on with my business to another thread. Wouldn't you want to hear or see insight on why? lol smh

It's not that I don't like what you have to say or comments you make, it's just you seem to reply like you're just trying to get your post count up or something. FYI there are no Webzone trophies, we only circle jerk around here.
