Last season:
Marvin Jones, 62 receptions for 846 yds.
Devier Posey, 12 receptions for 162 yds.
I know Posey didn't play most of the season because of suspension but doing stupid stuff to get yourself suspended should count against you as well. You can't be productive if your not on the field. |
Lol. Cute.
Freshman-Junior years.
Posey: 124 catches, 1793 yards, 16 TD.
Jones: 94 catches, 1424 yards, 10 TD.
I can't believe you seriously tried to use that as your argument.

Marvin Jones, Rueben Randle, Greg Childs, Juron Criner, Mohamed Sanu, Mavin McNutt, Nick Toon. Just because one dumb GM takes a player to high and another falls for unknown reasons doesn't mean the player taken earlier was the better pick. Ask the people of Jacksonville if a Punter was BPA in the 3rd round for a team that needs lots of help. Players are ranked by sites for a reason, occasionally they'll get someone wrong ie: Tom Brady, but for the most part they rank the players pretty well. Walterfootball had Posey ranked as a 5th - 7th round pick, CBSsports had him ranked as a 5th - 6th round pick. Even FF didn't have Posey ranked in the top 11 WR's. Posey was a massive Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeach. I just wonder if it will take the Texans, and Kubiaks ego, 4 yrs. again to finally admit it, like Jacoby.
I really hope Posey can prove me wrong. If so I'll freely admit it and eat that crow, but for now the Posey pick gets a grade of "F" from me when considering who else was available. |

I said his production was down due to suspension but a player has to be smart enough to be on the field to be productive, thus the reason the Texans usually lean toward players with high character. |

No, but it's not like Terrell Pryor was noted for being a great passer.

But if we drafted Jones in the 3rd he wouldn't have been a reach? He went 3 rounds later...
All you guys are saying is that Posey was a bad pick, you ahve yet to actually say why any other WR would have been better.

Pryor threw for over 6000 yards and 57 TDs in 3 seasons at Ohio....thats MUCH better than anything Cal had

That's true, but it doesn't change the fact that they have the same speed, Posey is more athletic, Posey runs much better routes, and has better body control.

and IMO Posey does not run better routes, does not have better hands, and does not have better body control. Posey seems to be a better deep threat, but Jones is a guy who does it all extremely well. He will be a great receiver as long as ol red can continue to get better in Cincy

Speak of the devil. Marvin is headed to Cincy along with Sanu, 166th overall. Haha. I love how I bring it up then he gets picked. |
Yup and when he haunts us in the playoffs and destroys Jackson don't go running back to Pittsburgh you quitter |
Seriously? |
hahahaaa!!! Thats what I said......no one Marvin Jones will haunt us. Especially with an improved pass rush to haunt Dalton again....... |

Actually, Pryor was nowhere near garbage at qb and was pretty nice at OSU. But I feel Posey is a good pick up. I like him. If not Posey, I would take Marvin McNutt or Chris Givens. |

Posey is not who I would have drafted. But, by looking at numbers alone, he is obviously a talented receiver! As talented, or less talented, who can say? But evidently Kubiak, or Smith, or someone saw something in him that warranted us taking him. And there is not a single one of us that can say otherwise.
And the crap about the "draft experts" saying we could have had him 3 rounds later....they do not not know that....we don't know that! It's obvious that his production was good. Had he played his senior year, he may have been looking at 65-70 catches 900-1000+ yds. He's 6'-2", 210 lbs. Other than saying we could have had someone different, someone who was .2 faster, or jumped 1" higher, or arms were 1" longer.........I can't see a reason to knock him.
But as of right now, I'm assuming he's ahead of Jacoby, thus he's an improvement!

I think im with Ax2, Jones was behind this beast who will be a 1st round pick next year and still had solid numbers

Um...ok. Whatever helps you sleep at night, sweetie. 
I'm not a big DeVier Posey fan, but I can tell you with 100% confidence that Marvin Jones won't amount to much in the NFL. The league is littered with guys like Jones...and most of them don't do much, if anything.
All in all, we got the best WR named Jones, and his name is Dwight.
