This really is a thing of relationships.

Kyler is good friends with Hollywood Brown...


Jalen Hurts is really good friend with AJ Brown.

Still if Im Keim I get it done. Too bad.

Yup, would have much rather this one. Whatever. I'm just glad Keim didn't screw up the pick.

Ok this stings. What are the details? I’m moderately pleased with the Hollywood trade, but I would have been through the ceiling for AJ.

Burks would have been an incredible pick. The Boldin type role I think.

The difference is Anquan was one of the smarter guys to play the position in ages. Played QB in college some, he understood the offense through and through. Burks is a big physically talented kid who has no idea what he's doing. put him in an offense where almost every play has run/pass options and options on what route to run, not a good fit IMO.

Cool. I ain’t mad at that analysis. Boldin was one of a kind.

The Eagles gave him 4yrs for 100 million with 57 million gtd. Holy hell.

Yeah this is why we didn't trade for him.

There's two things here. I think the Titans were fleeced. AJ Brown worth far more than that when you look what Tyreek cost.

But Cards couldn't have done it. Can't pay Nuk $27m and Brown $25m.

Hollywood trade makes far more sense. And Brown has a tonne of potential left in him. Ravens weren't scratching the surface.
