Lmao. The article you just posted indicates that every off season will have more and more WR talent coming and there will be an abundance of draft talent for years to come. Nice job buddy

Exactly! Teams that want to draft a wide receiver these days can reasonably find a Denzel Mims, Chase Claypool or Michael Pittman Jr. in round two, or even a Darnell Mooney in round five. The talent pool has spread out, the depth at the position is incredible coming out of school and it doesn't look like a one or two year fluke but a new paradigm. Put two and two together, why spend a valuable first round pick on a wide receiver when you could just draft a late round rookie who's still really talented and invest the money towards a more sure-thing free agent?
I think you may actually be starting to get it.

You should read the article, not just the headline. Its about depth, not about top line talent.

A new paradigm lol. As if the league hasn't been acquiring new talent at positions like WR in the past. News flash - the league has been acquiring talent at all positions from all rounds of the draft literally since it's existence. This isn't new. When did you start following the NFL? You sound like you're 12.

Bears can still rescind the tag later on in FA if he's not signed it right? ...after the draft?
ARob doesn't have to sign the tag til camp or even week 1 IIRC?
^ Pardon my ignorance. From what I'm reading, the tag seems just a temporary hold til closer to draft when movement is more likely to happen. Worst case he plays it. He's quoted as saying he wants HOF and still gripes about snaps missed with his ACL setting him back. He also won't risk a bad name to sit out - esp. if Bears get a QB better than Mitch (or any he's had). He'll want to put up big #s for '22 free agency.
If I'm ARob, I wouldn't mind being shopped a bit now to find out true market value - except it'll be lower than any other year due to lower cap AND deep WR draft.
He's the biggest true #1 (quasi) available, but still not a burner & unlikely to command what he wants in this market.
Next year is the time to get his big multi-year contract after he HOPEFULLY plays with a competent QB & really puts up some #s. The tag is the only way he realistically makes that much in '21 unless traded to a fool team that overpays.

I doubt this is entirely true but people who are insisted that he's not getting traded have always been wrong in a lot of ways.Allen Robinson Rumors: Bears WR Has 'Zero Plans' to Sign Franchise Tag
