I'm officially going all in on Corey Davis. I just can't see any reason he wouldn't be a good pick. He fills the most glaring hole on the roster and I could see him as being BPA at our pick. 

The only knock against him was level of talent, however he showed no reason to think he wouldn't have excelled in the SEC. Great route runner, great hands, will win almost every contested catch, good speed, all the production you can ask for and to my knowledge zero character concerns. 

I dont buy into the well it's a deep draft we can draft a receiver in round 2 or 3. Nobody close to his talent level will be there in the 2nd. 

Granted I've said the same about the likes of Alshon Jeffery, Keenan Allen and Allen Robinson in the past who all were available in the 2nd and Keenan in the 3rd.

Eithery way his combination of talent and how he fits on our team with the least amount of question's regarding fit scheme and immediate impact wise makes him my favorite at the moment.

Feel free to state your case for your favorite to help the undecided.

 

The picture hopefully is worth a thousand words.  3rd and 6 late in the game in a raucous environment against a bitter rival and bends the edge like NO ONE else to put the QB in the dirt.  

I LOVE Fournette but the value of a 20 year old DE like this and the ability to pick up a RB later rues the day by a whisker.

it's down to Fournette or Howard for me. 

I love Fournette too. However I always thought Stewart would become expendable if we drafted Fournette. The extension before the draft by Gettleman tells me I was wrong there. That dampens my enthusiasm on him being a day 1 workhorse back for us. Nothing wrong with a 2 back system but how in the hell can we stop teams from stacking the box without counting on CJ2 or the special teams guy from Tampa to exceed expectations? Either way Fournette is a monster and someone else I'd be glad to have.

 

I have to admit, I am very late to the OJ Howard party. Dude is a monster! One of the best run blocking Tight End's I can ever remember seeing and not only that but go here  http://draftbreakdown.com/video/o-j-howard-vs-texas-am-2016/ and you can see him take on Myles Garrett in pass protection! Alabama could have done more for his resume by getting him more involved in the passing game, but in his limited opportunities he looked good to me.

Why I am so late to this party? Because I'm guilty as hell for looking at the stat sheet and never thinking it would be worth the time to pull up his game tape.  I gladly admit I was wrong about that one and now can be excited if we take him vs upset,due to sheer laziness on my end.

    • You would hope so. I’m confused why the sports world seems split on Bryce when he’s obviously not working out. 
    • So let’s do the reverse? Make everyone agree everything he does is a disaster? I also think the whole “gaslighting” is on the eye of the beholder. It went from he can’t avoid one single sack countered with he actually did that well Sunday (with data backing it) to a little breakdown of why he is so bad. People are going to have different opinions. I’m also not going to pretend this wasn’t happening Day one with this little QB. 
    • All this great stuff he has done, how often does he do it?  I have it at three or four games out of 14 where he was very good and then you get a drive here or a series there where there are some good things. Here is the gaslight part: everyone has put him on a curve with his first year the baseline, neglecting to understand how bad he was then. Even if he comes back twice as good, where does that really leave him? 25th ranked or thereabouts.     He had so far to go, and still does, it is a Major ‘settle’ to accept his play as worthy of giving him our future.  You want to settle when the Bucs have Mayfield, and the Saints have overtaken us at QB? We will be third in the division at QB. That is good enough for y’all?
