DGB Considered "Best WR to Come Out since Calvin Johnson."

Albert Breer of NFL Media writes that while other prospects such as Florida State QB Jameis Winston and Alabama WR Amari Cooper may garner more attention in the coming days, no prospect has more on the line than Oklahoma WR Dorial Green-Beckham.

According to Breer, no receiver offers as much in terms of physically gifts, as Green-Beckham is listed at 6-foot-6, 225.

“He’s one of the best receivers I’ve ever seen,” said the scout. “He’s special. He’s gigantic, he has tremendous body control, balance, he runs like a deer and can leap out of the gym and high-point the ball. He’s special. It’s impressive. If not for all that stuff, he’d be the best receiver to come out since Calvin Johnson.”
However, there are plenty of concerns with a player like Green-Beckham.

He was arrested on possession of marijuana charges during his freshman year at Missouri, only to be busted again, but this time with a pound of marijuana.

Then, just three months later, Green-Beckham forced his way into Missouri student’s apartment and pushed her down a set of stairs.

According to Breer, three NFL teams have information that he failed multiple drug tests during his time in Columbia, which led to his dismissal from the team.

“He’s very immature,” said one of Breer’s sources. “People like him as a guy, but you cannot defend the off-field incidents.”
In two years at Missouri, Green-Beckham caught 87 passes for 1,278 yards receiving and 17 touchdowns.

If hes there at 25 and you've interviewed him enough and he checks out, it would be quite moronic to bypass him.  

It depends who else is still on the board but yes at 25 he's a fuging steal IF he can keep his nose clean.

See this is lazy reporting. DGB ALLEGEDLY pushed that girl down the stairs. He was not charged with anything and the "victim" didn't talk to the police. If someone pushed me down the stairs...I'm talking about it. I'm sure this will be regurgitated to death as well. ...and I'm waiting for the, "DGB is a drug lord so the victim kept her mouth shut," conspiracy theorist post.

Pretty sure some of the people arguing for us to draft him are the same ones who screamed that if we didn't trade a first or second round draft pick for Josh Gordon or Justin Blackmon, it proved we didn't care about winning :lol:

Some real fountains of football wisdom there, eh?

I think OP was just trying to show people how good this kid really is. He could be a nightmare on an off the field lol.

    • LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.  Mock drafts 
    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
