DUH!

But if you are going to draft a WR that is tiny early they better WOW me.


None of the small or frail guys you are promoting for the 1st round pick are wow players.

You're conveniently ignoring the second part of that post.

Worthy is a similar prospect to Hollywood. That's a good comparison, thanks.
[Reply]

Nope.


Not even close.
[Reply]

Worthy is bigger, so that's true.
[Reply]

Fun to talk about but FA will tell us what will tend to happen. They’re gonna get an MVS replacement and likely keep Hardman as cheap depth.

If you get someone like Mooney and keep Hardman it basically erases the need for Worthy IMO. It’s a similar role.

Just sign Hollywood and be done with it.

Let's define Alpha WR for a minute.

Ok, so just to be a bonafide #1 in the NFL you pretty much need 75 receptions, 1000 yards, and 6 TDs. That means you'd finish in the top 32 in each of the major statistical categories for a WR.

One way to quickly narrow that list is to see who's done it in consecutive seasons. If I pick 3 consecutive seasons as my Alpha benchmark, adjust for injury, then I should get a nice list.

Then here is your Alpha List:

A.J. Brown
CeeDee Lamb
Cooper Kupp
Davante Adams
Ja'Marr Chase
Justin Jefferson
Keenan Allen
Mike Evans
Stefon Diggs
Tyreek Hill

Chance to get 3 in a row in 2024 and become Alpha's by this definition
Amon-Ra St. Brown
Brandon Aiyuk
DeVonta Smith


You know who doesn't profile like any of these guys? :-)

I guess you could squint and hope that Mitchell became......Detox said Hopkins. Maybe that or a lesser version of Ceedee?

His physical traits aren't gonna be near that, so that's unlikely, so you're gonna have to have him be more of a feel/smart player. Hopkins probably fits.

Drafting a guy to be that is pretty meh.

Week before last years draft.

I also liked Kincaid and La Porta.

Zay is too small to be a legit outside guy. CB's eat him up if that's the case.
[Reply]

Just stop.


He can line top anywhere on the field and beat any corner in the NFL, including Sneed.



Not surprised that the "I hate offense" crowd hates good WR's....


:-)
[Reply]

He's too small. Cb's get their hands on him it's pretty much end of story.

It's why the Ravens used him in bunches and motion alot this year.
[Reply]

Yeah, the guy who was promoting the quality of garbage like Skyy Moore and Justin Watson doesn't like the explosive playmaker.


:-)
[Reply]

I don't remember promoting Skyy Moore for anything.

Justin Watson put up 500 yards and 3 TD's for pennies. That seems good?
