Where I am going is just because he “ flew up draft boards “ doesnt mean he was value or you or anyone else didnt think enough of him to put him there at 16 . I don’t care about some pundits ratings , I can find pundits that had him ranked lower .
what is happening here is the team picked him and you guys are ready to ban RR exec of the year .
he could have drafted dog shit and you would approve
So now you secretly held on to it ? Pleaseno, after hearing Kiems podcast and reading hoghaven message boards, I understand why Forbes was the pick. Gonzo was not a slam dunk pick at CB. Forbes' weight was the only issue and his production trumped that. Plus he fits JDR's defense. Thats huge. I said I likeed him days befreo the draft jsut never posted another mock. Kiem reported mutile times that we did not like Porter and there was love for Forbes. So this should not be a total shock. ksbo also posted mutiple times on this.

I agree 1st round a few days before the draft but he didn’t mock him to us at all during the process . Not at 16 and the mock draft thread has been up for monthsgo search it. I remember commenting on ksbo posts and said he will go 1st round. donjt get me wrong gonzo was higher on teh lsit but after hearing the inside scoops i can see why they went Forbes

A few days ago , that’s it and based on what kiem said and all based on gonzo not being there
Look at post 758
Now we are changing the narrative, I am not “ shocked “ dean , I am saying it was a reach and a bad pick with gonzo on the board and kbos himself said he preferred gonzo in that very threadYes, he was flying up boards and Kien said weeks ago we were out on Porter. Im not saying I wanted Forbes over Gonzo, I'm saying you shouldn t shocked at the Forbes pick. Especially that we go no calls to trade down. Forbes vs Gonzo will always be linked and debated.

I dont buy the call thing at allim not arguing that. But from what I heard now its seems like Forbes was the better fit and they didnt get any calls for a trade down.
