I said before the draft I would be happy with Cooper, White or Williams, but I couldn't get happy for the pick when I heard it. I tried, but I am happy we finally have a WR I cant remember the last time we had one.

Californ-i-a by way of BK
New England had a top 10 defense in pts. allowed and top 15 in yards allowed and they had no elite receivers. Same scenario with the Seahawks when they won.
LOL that's an average league defense bro. That's the point. You don't need an elite defense to win. If you're dominate on one side of the ball, and respectable on the other, you can win.

:comeon: number 8 in points allowed is average?

And the only teams that win with a dominant offense are teams with hall of famers at QB. If you think Carr is a HOFer, then you have a point. I don't think he is. I think he's good, but not a HOFer. The 2nd-3rd tier QBs (Flaco, Kaep, Wilson) have more success when they have good defenses and a good running game.

Edit: I'm gonna try to hold my tongue after this post. No reason to keep debating this at this point. I'm not trying to push the issue, i'm just trying to clarify my stance. I think Cooper is gonna ball for us, I just don't think we got the most value with our #4 pick.

as long as crabtree realizes he's auditioning for other teams in this prove it deal and catches the catchable balls thrown his way and we good.
