Senior Bowl Targets

@top dawg looks like your boy showed up and snagged MVP honors for the game. At times he is the best player on the field. If he was consistent, he'd be a top 25 guy. Idk if I take him rnd 2 or 3 with our needs but he'll yes in the 4th. He might work his way into a top 60 pick though in the post season showcases.

Brugler reported Legette has been having a lot of trouble and is definitely a faller so far. 

Don't get caught up in the NFL size, he's not been a consistent producer in his college career.  That's the very reason I wasn't very high on Mingo. While Mingo had the better career than Legette, he still didn't put up the numbers that I would expect for a #1 guy in college in a pass happy offense.

So Penix is off my board. Last minute scratch was weak. Nix is testing my resolve. He had a chance to show he doesn't only live on short throws and all the practice reports really hold him for it. We don't need another 10yards and under guy. I'd say nix is off as of today. He's gotta show more at the combine and pro day.

If we are going to force a WR at #33, we very well could be looking at WR7 or WR8.  Screw Fitterer and David Tepper. So disappointing to know where we could be this draft and the crumbs we actually have.  I know, you 'make lemonade out of lemons' and hopefully Dan Morgan can.  As a guy who usually enjoys the draft process, last draft and this one has absolutely sucked for me.

Those 6 year seniors always worry me, especially after Pickett. I mean they are 23-24 playing against 18-20 year old players. Both also struggled earlier in other conferences. Penix’s injury history behind our OL is just a terrible idea as well.

Hey, Ladd McConkey, Xavier Leggette, Keon Coleman...I'll take any of them.

Take? Sure, but are they the best value?  Coleman possibly.  At this rate I'd rather trade down some and get some bonus picks.  Leggette should be there several picks later.  One thing I did agree with Fitterer on is his philosophy on immediate impact players only being in that first 15-20 picks.  So #33 or lets say #37 in a trade down, you are getting the caliber of guy.

Honestly, it's arguable that waiting to draft receivers in the second round actually lends itself to a  better return on investment.

And don't sleep on McConkey. He's certainly the type of player that you absolutely want on your team.

2nd thoughts about leggette if he can't get separation I don't want him.

Route running, quickness, and separation should be the top traits when filtering WR prospects this year. Big fan of McMillan (WAS) and Mitchell (TEX) with that in mind.

No more larger guys with highlight reel catches.

Yeah, the more I saw him at the SR Bowl the more I thought "Fool's gold".  More of the same.  I am not sure I see things as Canales, but I am thinking we need YAC guys--and good route runners who are disciplined, not just better athletes--Ladd?

    • Just stop, man. All the college stats don't matter. Plenty of guys who put up big numbers in college flop in the NFL and you and I both know that there are 1st round and top 10 busts every year. While we definitely hope T-Mac isn't one and we hope he proves to be a great NFL WR, you can't assume poo about a rookie who hasn't played a down of NFL football yet.
    • therein lies the problem.  Carry on 
    • Again, it's not about performance, it's purely a statement about his ability as a football player. Which right now, is better than Chark ever was, I don't understand how that is a controversial statement. This isn't someone who had a 1,500 yard season with a dozen touchdowns while being a threat the other team was afraid of on every snap.  It's literally a guy who had a couple good games and then was just peppered with targets in the others because the team had no other viable WRs and he still barely cracked 1,000 yards, and then was barely even a JAG for the rest of his career outside that one season. Just look at it this way, take names aside, you're saying a guy who's peak was 1,008 yards and 2nd best season was 706 yards, was a better football player at that time than a WR who was just taken in the Top 10 and had multiple teams trying to trade up to get them. That's beyond asinine thinking.  I'm genuinely not even sure Chark would make the argument himself if he was being completely honest and objective about it.
