If you are trading 3 first round picks you were going for the home run. Picking Mac at 3 is a bunt. Wouldve been insane to do that.
I agree there. At the time I was happy they went for the home run even if it was for a very raw prospect.
But my god, not only did they swing and miss, the miss was historically horrendous, like...trying to hit a homerun and swinging on a ball that was thrown nowhere the plate, like the ball went to the dugout and they still struck out.
I loved that Lynch had the balls to take the swing.
Far less important that he missed in this case.
Keep taking big swings especially at QB.
If not for dumb idiot Shanahan's love fest with Cousins I bet Lynch picks Mahomes at #3 in that draft if it was just up to him. He would have taken that huge swing on someone also a bit raw and this time instead hit a home run that left the stadium.
Get a life, lmao.
