Kind of funny a few here had doubts about Addison
#1
Top notch WRer. Very talented. Tough kid. Probably the most obvious thing to see is that this kid was going to be good. What's nuts is KOC had to pound the table to pick him and not have KAM trade down.

I dont think the doubts were about his game,   but more his ability to stay healthy,  I would like to see him play a bigger role for a few more games before I would erase those concerns,  he has shown that he has trouble getting off jams at the LOS due to his smaller stature,   but that can be alleviated with motion and not being on the LOS at the snap.

lol, of course you would. Easier than admitting you were wrong.

So you have no concerns about his durability and lack of size yet?  Let him take a couple months of hits that come from a larger role in O and see if he is still as sharp?  Do you not see him getting stood up at the LOS at times and not being able to get into his route on time for certain throws to be successful? 

Hes a rookie,  gonna shine and gonna have learning moments,  but if you are convinced of his greatness then go ahead and book your tickets to canton for his enshrinement in 15 years.   I'm not saying he won't be good,  but his concerns are not erased 7 games into his rookie year with only 1 game of high production.

Let's not restart the false narrative that KOC had to beg and plead with KAM to draft Addison.

It was proven false?? Never saw that part. My bad if so. With all the shit on the 'Net, wouldn't doubt it.

Addison looks better than Diggs did when he was a rook.  One poster here says all you need is a single "stud" player in a draft to call it a successful draft.  It looks to me like Kwesi stuck gold with the Addison pick.  The Vikes needed a WR to step up without JJ playing, and Addison not only did that, he damn near put the team on his back and carried them.

...or give credit for a signing like Powell who stepped up big.

I get bagging on the shit stuff, but when you conversely don't prop up the good stuff or offer backhanded compliments, then you've got an agenda and a poster gets less credible. At least IMO.
