Could be. I don't think Ladd is undersized more than Pearsall. Worthy is undersized because he's rail thin, but it's all what you are looking at/for. But honestly I like all these guys so much that it's hard for me to rank any of them. The next dozen or so after those first four I'm going to be excited about. I love Keon and Leggette because they are big beasts who just take the ball. Ladd and Pearsall and AD Mitchell because they got the moves, the routes, the separation, and the hands. Gimme Worthy, gimme Malik Washington, gimme Javin Baker. I'll take them all and finally feel good watching receivers again.

He even managed to make a chicken salad sandwich out of a chicken poo situation Fitts left with Burns.

I know there are questions. I just don't think that they are enough to skip over. Ladd has had some health issues. You take him in the 2nd anyway. Leggette is raw and improven, you take him anyways. The talent is just too strong and it's unlikely that we will run into a class with this much talent and potential anytime soon. You swing when you have opportunities like this because they don't come around very often. One of our greatest needs coincide with the greatest depth we've seen at WR in who knows how long. We'd be foolish to come up with reasons for not swinging. But this whole draft class is just so talented and deep I some areas that ther will be nonWR talent falling that we should also grab. Whatever the case, however it falls, we should still walk away with at least 2 WRs. Not necessarily in the 2nd round, but if a 2nd run starts at the end of the 1st round, we'd better be ready to swing and then take advantage of the other talent that falls through later.

If you've got 5 WRs you want to take at 33 and then you've got one specific guy like Payton that you're hoping or feel like he should be there at 39...you take Payton at 33 and pick your best WR at 39.

I think we have different opinions about what a major question mark is. I'll just say that I wouldn't have an issue taking any of the top 12-15 WRs. Any other year most of these guys would be going a round or two earlier than where they are predicted to go. Maybe you're looking for the perfect WR that doesn't have anything to work on or who has never been injured. I just expect all of them to be rookies who have a lot to learn and prove. But I'll be happy to take any of these guys and if we have to take one or two that have some areas that could be considered worrisome, so be it. It's all a gamble. They're all a gamble. But you're guaranteed not to win if you don't take risks on uncertainty.

I'm not saying it's going to happen or to expect it even, but be ready for it and also be ready for 1) someone to fall that wasn't expected that we can get and take advantage of and 2) us to draft a WR earlier than what most mock/draftnik boards had them at. Doing that doesn't mean failure, btw. Drafts don't necessarily abide by the boards of mockers and draftniks. The draft is or can be a very unpredictable beast and you're going to have to be able to ditch your plan and adapt/react on a dime.

There aren't many WRs in this class that I wouldn't be tickled at getting. I have favorites, but I don't have any that I hate.

no, because he's already got guys like Kuechly pushing for him. I think if there's one thing that Keek and Morgan know, it's LBs and if they are both sold...if Morgan is sold enough on him that he thinks he's worth that pick i'm excited. i've been thinking a lot of times defense or OC with that first pick anyways and then coming back around and doubling up on WRs after that so it wouldn't throw that plan off much at all.

and say no to bo...or really any QB this year. do what we can to give BY every opportunity for success or at least substantial improvement. if it's not there, then we try again next year. but at least it couldn't be said that we didn't even try or give it a full effort. we invested that much into him...we have to give it a real honest go with a real team around him and a non-dysfunctional coaching staff.

we turned shuffling chairs on the titanic into an artform.

i know people might be shocked to see me say this, but i'm kind of the same way.

Did you say something? Sorry, i zoned out.

No kidding. I mean we might need it.

Ok....haven't used the NFL mock Database sim much in a while. This was kind of ridiculous. We wind up collecting in the 2025 draft Colts round 7 Bucs round 3, 7 Bengals round 5 Jags round 5 Eagles round 7 pick 250 Titans round 3, 4, 7 Pats round 1, 4 Chiefs round 2,5,7,7 Cards round 2,4,7

I keep on saying that i'll be excited if we draft any of about a dozen WRs...preferably 2. But i've got to admit that there's a couple i like i really hope are around for us to have as an option. We don't HAVE to draft him, but I at least want him to be available. and i don't want him or really anyone good to go to the chiefs. they've had enough rings for a decade.

this is probably my favorite break downs of the WR class. Brett Kollman always does a good job, imo.

Frame it however you want to fit your lovely narrative.

Major flaws? Lol just a bit dramatic

But there's more comps to DK Metcalf, AJ Brown, Deebo, and I even saw one to David Boston. Daniel Kelly had a really interesting writeup on him. https://firstroundmock.com/2024/02/xavier-legette-reminds-former-nfl-scout-of-these-legends/ Lots of ringing endorsements all over the place. People don't know what to expect, but from watching him last year they get a good sense of what he can be, and it's pretty stinking good

This is a move you make if you believe you've got a really small window and you're not looking long term. Just a weird move. Maybe they just got lucky last year.

This would be the most fun draft weekend ever.

It's pretty predictable after a while. I know how to time it to get guys I want while changing a little direction now and then.

Yep. Throw as many as we can out there and see what/who works

3rd round, run to the podium with the card Pick 39....maybe, depends on if we got a stud WR before. Pick 33....
