Disagree. Mager was a reach from a tiny school that no one had heard of. Spiller was projected as a 3rd rounder from a major SEC school that was very productive on a big stage. He is also only 22 at this point, younger than many guys in this year’s draft. He may never be productive, but he definitely has a stronger pedigree than Craig Mager. I agree with you there, Mager was a reach and Spiller was not. I'm mostly referring to people thinking Mager might become something he never did, it was fairly obvious early on that he wasn't worth the pick. I was a huge fan of the Spiller pick at the time, but like I said in another thread he has never even showed the same flashes that Dotson has. He has literally shown nothing to be excited about, I just don't see a productive NFL back in him. What I think happened is that Telesco really wanted Zamir White at that pick. The dude is a physical freak and workout warrior. When the Raiders snagged him, Tom panicked and picked the next highest RB on his board, Spiller. Of course, I’m a Dwag fan and a bit of a homer but that’s exactly what I thought at the time. I thought we were going to land White, and thought “oh shit” when we came up one pick too late.

Can you show me where they said that ? Listen, I am a Freak and I never said 50-50. The bottom 10 in the league for passing percentage was 50-56%. BUT there was only one of them that had a "passer type QB" like a Herbert. Josh Allen at Buffalo. They came in about 54% passing. Detroit and the Rams about 57% passing. We were in the 60's, and that absolutely had to change. Harbaugh style, Roman style, Roman probably wants 9% passing LOL. But we have the Herbert factor. So it's not going to be 50%. I have no idea, but I would put us about 54%-57% passing ? We absolutely had to come out of the 60's. If we get great run blocking 54ish, not as great 57ish.............. No. IMO it was implied that we would move in that direction. Precisely 50/50? Nope. Both 50 something? Yes.
I think it will be settled by circumstances. Opponent, team health etc. I see a lot of big dudes in the workout pics. OL and DL. It's going to be fun this season.

Looks like next year we will get Comp Picks. One 5th rounder and two 6th rounders.
