We spent a bit of time with Sawyer Robertson and LSU quarterback. Both mobile. I would say 4th but Dan did say they wanted a developmental guy. I'd keep an eye on them tomorrow.

lol true

Horn Jr is fast and shifty. I feel he was underutilized last season. Hopefully he gets more burn this season. With the big body guys stepping up in Tet, Coker, now CB3, it will allow JHJ to do more both over the top, on option routes, and after the catch.

Not something Morgan or Canales would ever do imo

It's Horn vs Metchie, one of them is making the final roster, I'm hoping for Horn. They're the only two quick twitch types right now and we have to keep one of them because of that.

Well, at least it sounds like he knows how to drop his hips and tap his feet in bounds. Upgrade.

I smell a lot of decoy routes to get T-Mac one on one coverage by forcing the safety to stay deep to help on Brazzell, maybe, not sure if teams will be afraid of Bryce throwing that though.

WR room is a crowded one. Jimmy Horn probably at risk, as is David Moore. Liked Tremayne last year. Wake up call for XL.

I just don't like the pick. I just have to say it. Rob Moore is going to have to do a lot of magic wand waving.

Taylen Green as a backup QB/WR. Think Kordell Stewart meets Calvin Johnson project

If it makes them force Bryce to throw the deep ball to see if he can do it consistently, so be it. Horn has the speed for it but Bryce probably needs that extra arm radius and contested catch on floaters with his lack of accuracy

Well… I for one am surprised with how the draft has played out thus far and imagine I am not alone. Likely to take some cap maneuvering to make it happen, but who is still out there in the veteran free agent market that could fill some positions of need? Talking LB, Nickel, CB Depth, Safety, Center. Would have bet it all that we would have addressed at least one of those positions in the first three rounds. I still think Trevin, Chau, and Nick Scott are best suited as rotational depth pieces. Not thrilled with the FA center addition after losing Cade Mays, either.

No.

We'll see if that's true in a practical sense. He catches too much with his body. He's not a big YAC guy. He's not a tackle breaker. He struggles in press coverage. He's not twitchy at all. I just don't get how you can be looking at Concepcion and Cooper, and then end up with Brazzell in round 3. There's a disconnect for me.

On the trade value the Panthers actually won it by 1 pt even giving up 40 spots.

I smell a lot of 8-10 yard comeback routes to the sideline with no yac.

Kelvin Benjamin was a talent. It wasn't talent that failed him. It was his appetite. How does he remind you of these former players? I'm not arguing, I'm trying to figure out your logic. So because he's a tall WR, he automatically fits your criteria?

What a Gettleman draft. Two hog mollies and and tall WR lol. Lets hope he's not Funchess 2.0

Slow up on the HOF comps in here. He isn't in Moss's sphere if you want production, and well, no one will likely be again. Claypool or Martavis Bryant were comps as a 1 trick pony that people figures out much more apt than Randy Moss. Moss was 215 at 6'4". dude here is sub 200 when he ran at the combine. Until the combine there were lots of questions of if it was the player or the scheme. That singular 4.37 changed a lot of narratives. He isnt interested to block, and he's gonna get blown up right now as a blocker out there. Then there is all the bad history of the latest generation of Tennessee WRS to flame out despite the measurables. Little better route tree and sink than the prior guys but don't think he's gonna be a tactician to get open. Prior to the combine the other knock was didn't get separation consistently, outside just running by guys who didn't press him. Let him run free and he blows by anyone though which we haven't had since tedd ginn jr (over drafted but productive in spirts) Overall on the 3rd, it's a bold pick. As a #3 boundary guy in obvious pass downs, it's an interesting pick as a vertical threat. He can pluck the ball too. Lots of risk here but then again it's the 3rd round. Tall Ginn Jr without the blocking or return ability would be a nice find here.

But the point was there’s been a lot of tall wr being bust, even from Tennessee as someone listed above. Dorial Green-Beckham also comes to mind. Remember Kelvin Benjamin? he simply reminds me of some of those former players, argue if you want.

I mean, they are his best plays in a highlight reel not a documentary, but his hands are pretty damned good and he has great concentration and also superb balance. I tire of the cookie cutter tall long guy too but I get why they like him.

McMillan? Metcalf? Higgins? Collins? Sutton? London? Yeah a lot of doing nothing there

Why not? You make a point about so many 6'4" / 6'5" being a bust in the NFL but can only name one. I know of several but for every failure there are more than one success.

Brazzell is a beast. Opposite TMac with Coker in the middle? Shoooooot. We just got strong at WR--Twin towers. I would love to see XL catch on, but as the #4, he is not that bad. I am excited about this pick--had him as a second rounder--Morgan had a good day.
