    Glad I was off the forum last night so all the hot takes could go ahead and take place. At 33, this would've been an alright pick. At 40, this was a really good pick. We were able to pick up a 4th and 7th and still get the guy that we wanted. DGB is going to be a stud, he just has to stay on the field and out of trouble. That's his major knock. Keep him out of trouble and we got the steal of the draft. I don't blame the Titans at all for taking this risk.

    Not really. Sophmore slumps are common and he overproduced his rookie year...


    Justin Hunter is/will be better than DGB, by far.

    DGB just isn't that great. Being big and fast isn't all that matters for a WR... and he brings little else. Can't catch. Baby hands and t-rex syndrome always catching with his pads. Can't run great routes and likely won't understand calls. Also doesn't even attempt to block.

    There's a reason everyone was passing on him. His ceiling doesn't outweigh his risk.

    Maybe DGB will not fall down and trip every time he runs a route.

    heard Pat Kirwan say that there were about 6 teams trying to trade into that spot to take DGB. If he can stay clean he could be a stud.

    Titans having a very nice draft. They're going to run Mariota in play action till his tongue hangs out

    pt?

    Prison Time?

    That's the only thing DGB will be in competition for.

    And I don't mind players with character issues. But watch DGB... he looks clumsy. Like his hands don't communicate with his brain.

    Never gets a ball at it's highest point. Catches with his chest, etc. Just not good fundamentals for a WR.

    I am 99% sure the Panthers traded up with the Rams to take him but then after we took DGB they had to settle on the Michigan WR.
