* Pick a WR when not a position of need and a reach also.
* Pick a RB not needed and will not play. CMC will still get run into the ground.
* Ignore offensive line at least certainly early. Sometimes almost throughout the draft.
You can count on this pattern almost every year in the draft.

I am fine with the WR pick but it was a reach, we could have got him later. He fits the Shanny offense but he's not the best fit for Brock's style. Hate the RB pick. Don't get the trade down strategy in a top heavy draft.

FWIW, he is the reason all those are here.

Kyle is an amazing coach, I'm sticking with that, but we need someone to strap him to a chair and tape his mouth shut on draft day.

Kyle and the coaches know football, but would he spend all year on his playbook just to let the scouting team come in and call plays in the Superbowl?
That's exactly what happens and certain parts of the draft, we've had the scouting staff work for a year on their preparation for picking the players, then the coaches come in for a month and dictate things. No way to run an organisation

Yea, Kyle's an amazing offensive mind. Needs to be paired with a strong GM who specializes in player evaluation and talent acquisition.
Lynch is great at public speaking and free agent talent acquisition, he started out great at drafting in the mid and late rounds but it looks like that magic is fading fast.

As far as I know, the assistant coaches have a big role in player evaluations. They just lost a ton of defensive coaches this offseason. That could be one reason of the so called strange reach picks. Raheem Morris, Matt Eberflus, and Jerry Gray are all brand new and may not have the cajones to challenge Kyle's player evaluations.

Wide receiver is a massive position of need. JJ was their best with 650 yards receiving and he is gone.

Meh not this season so it's not massive. Ricky, Evans, Robinson and Kirk with young talent like Cowing.

The movement will only grow as both Kyle and Lynch continue to make bone headed moves. He'll be out of here soon enough and then the Quest for 6 really begins. Can't wait !
Back to Baalke and Nolan types.
Enough with the winning.

Evans, Kirk, Pearsall and the young talent *all have* injury issues, it definitely was a positon of need in my opinion.

Pearsall is Mr Glass, he gets up limping after every catch and is never available. Those othet dudes all suck. Bourne was our second most productive WR.
