Hopkins/Fuller is a rather unforgivable omission from that list

As is the Goodwin/garçon powerhouse (I kid)

With that said Evans is pretty elite and I’m not sure I get the shade being thrown just cuz crab legs can’t hack it

Fuller isn’t that great though. He had 430 yards this season albeit with **** for a while for much of the season and 550 his rookie year. Obviously Hopkins is the power in that couple but as I mentionrd I’m probably missing a few others that are on par with Evans. Evans one great year was with a 55 percent catch rate which isn’t great but I know he caught a lot of long passes.

My only point is there are a ton of combos better not that it was in order or comprehensive.

Yeah I mean this was obvious from your post. It's nice to have other people make your point for you though.

Kind of missing a lot of context with Fuller, most notably his health and what a ridiculous touchdown machine he was with Deshaun Watson at QB. My point in bringing Hopkins/Fuller up as a comparison to Evans/Jackson is that Fuller at this point, when healthy, is more likely to provide the kind of deep threat that Jackson was supposed to.

edit: In the four games both Deshaun Watson and Will Fuller were healthy, Fuller had 279 yards and 7 TDs. Now I'm not gonna sit here and say you can extrapolate that to a full season but he had 144 yards and 0 TDs in six games without Watson. Seems reasonable in a 16-game season with he and Watson both healthy he might at least approach 1,000 yards and would hit double-digit TDs.

Thing about fuller Hopkins is that fuller is way better than desean and Hopkins is way better than Evans.

Plus, the thing about Fuller is that Hopkins / box of laundry detergent probably make that list.

People often say they are going to do things when angry that they would never do once they calm down. And i don't see anything in those quotes that looked like talent evaluating.

Polian on Lamar is the biggest nath.signal since ever

What'd he say about Lamar? All I'm seeing is him saying that he wouldn't listen to a trade for Foles unless it "started with two 1's and two 2's". lol

Doing some googling and I see people are worried about Lamar's accuracy as a QB? Isn't he the most accurate of the QB prospects?

Umm, Polian evaluated that Lamar Jackson was too small & slight to be an NFL QB. He may be listed at 6'3" & 211 pounds, but you can't argue with the eyetest...

He said Lamar should switch to WR immediately, and not wait like Pryor did.

don't wait till the Ohio State kid is 29

Pryor is 28 right now and isn't a scrub nobody's heard of. Certainly a name a paid NFL analyst should know since everybody who plays fantasy football knows who he is

He also said browns should consider drafting Johnny Manziel at pick 4, Manziel is 6'0, he called lamar too short for the position and Lamar is 6'3 (yes I made this same mistake without looking it up but I'm not paid for this).

Also Jeff Driskel has a broken arm because the bengals made him take WR reps in practice before the last game.

I think he has a bit of a point with the size, specifically girth as he said. Who has been successful with a similar BMI? He seems noticeably skinnier than everyone and with speed being such an important attribute of his it's not as simple as just getting him to bulk up.

He's 26.4, Smith is 26.3, Cousins 26.2

I mean, what's there to say, it was obvious he was losing it his last few years in Indianapolis and I don't think time has helped in that regard

Bill Polian said on ESPN’s NFL Live that, if he were the Eagles’ GM, he wouldn’t listen to any offers for Nick Foles unless they started with “two 1’s and two 2’s.”

The Eagles are in a comparable situation to the Pats w/ Brady and Jimmy G. They can't really play hardball with any other teams in a trade for Foles because all their leverage is one season away from vanishing.

A season is valuable though and once you get a player you gain leverage with the ability to franchise tag them.
