Easily the no2 behind Amari if you're talking pure talent; not combine performance. Plus, his ceiling is way higher than both Cooper and White imo.

Take the of field issues away and he'd be looked at differently by the media.

 

I don't think I would put him #1 even without all the issues. Kevin White was the best receiver before and after the combine.

"take the off field issues away"  ?

 

Like saying, "take the fact that he has only one leg away"

 

Your passion for the game can help you and your disrespect for yourself and the game can hurt you.  It is all part of the package as a draft hopeful

White was not the best WR before the combine. He's the best WR after the combine.

DGB is as good as Mike Evans as a prospect. As natural as you can get in catching the ball.

 

Yeah, he was. Or at least I had him ranked there, I think he might be the best player in the entire draft. DGB has other issues besides off the field ones and he is not as clean of a player on the field as Parker, White, or Cooper.

Interesting rankings.  Quite different than mine, if I were to put in the effort.  My biggest disagreement is you don't even have my favorite valued RB (meaning not overdrafting like Gordon and Gurly) in Ameer Abdullah.  I think he's going to be an absolute stud.  The last guy with change of direction and feet like his to come out of the draft was Reggie Bush and I think Abdullah will be better.  Seems smarter with better vision.  Not as straightline fast as Bush, but just as quick and agile.

He's the number 4 receiver in this draft counting his off the field stuff. Not bring that into consideration he's top one or two. He's still going to go in the first round probably before strong or Dorset.

 

I highly doubt he goes in the first, like, it would shock me.

      Bucky Brooks eats humble pie. You want a couple of slices?

      No you dont.  He had all those records for years before his final season. Whether career or season he had them all years before his final season in which he played 6 games.

      DJ Moore. The quitting WR

      By csx · Posted

      Williams covered for Moore by saying they were on the wrong page about Moores specific route. Williams could have easily covered for him by saying he messed up. Suggesting only 1 route was ever intended to be a viable target is absurd.

      Edge Rushers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I am going to agree with Linville this time--I think we need to get a veteran edge (We have Jones II, Scourton, and Princely--2 developmental guys and a decent veteran).  We don't really think of Jones because he had a hamstring injury weeks 3 and 4 and a back that required surgery Week 6-17.  He still managed 10 pressures, and he will be 28.  Princely Umanmielen only played in approximately 18-20% of the snaps and he struggled at times.  Basically, he was a situational pass rusher.  He got 1.5 sacks and 10 pressures.  He should improve, but for now, he is what he is.  Scourton gives us hope.  For a rookie (and thanks to Jones II's injuries, he was given more PT), he had 8 sacks--and held the edge.  He played at a first-round draft pick level.  He has the potential to become "that guy" in 2026. We lose Wonnum, who played nearly 700 snaps and amassed 3 whole sacks.  For a person raised a Gamecock, I would not be upset if we purged our roster of all South Carolina alumni.   However, I see it this way:  Wonnum was decent holding the edge, something Patrick Jones II and Scourton have demonstrated at a high level.  He is a liability, if you ask me.    Jones had 7 sacks one season in Minnesota and is known for his inside rushing ability--not what you would call a speed rusher.  I think Princely was a bit disappointing, but he was a bit raw.  Out of college, they described him as being a bit predictable.  I see no reason he will not improve in 2026 and become a situational pass rusher.   Basically, with Scourton and Princely expected to continue to develop and Jones II returning from injury, I think we need another veteran (if we can get a good one) to give us balance and depth.  A third developmental player is not ideal.   Draft:  OT, LB, WR, OL depth, S. Free Agency:  Edge, possibly a WR;  re-sign Mays, Cuhran, BC (??), and Nijman.  Let walk:  Wonnum, Scott, Dowdle.  I see about $20m per year after signing the OL depth.  Spend it on a veteran edge.   Players like Reddick (Tampa), Bosa (Buffalo), Khalil Mack (LAC) could be available on a one or two year deal in the $15m range.  We could splurge here, but I think a veteran situational pass rusher (depending on Jones II's back) is all we need while our 2 young guns develop.
