Gonna be interesting to see how Quinn Ewers does next year. Losing both his starting WRs are they proved to be FAST. The faster of the two running the fastest Combine 40 ever and the "slower" one running 4.35. I mean... DAMN.

Texas got a couple transfers, one from Alabama. Isaiah Bond who was decent last year. If he stays healthy I think Ewers shows out and has a Heisman caliber season next year. Injuries are going to be a big factor for him.

Oh, I'm sure he's not gonna be throwing to bums but both those Texas WRs are  gonna go on the top 50 picks. Hell, they might both go in the 1st round. Thats a lot to replace.

Yet another player moving into a better position in the draft through the process. Fact is we are better served to find the diamonds that were later rounders that have had similar accessions. Just not rising out of reach but into contesting for that mid tier.  Guys like Malik Washington, Thrash, McMillan, and Coker are our targets. Too many WR's are going to go in the first for us to get the pick of the litter. How many is a litter? I could see 6 to 7 WR's go in the first.

How many WRs will go in round 1? 

Possibly 6--if Xavier's 40 time causes him to squeeze in the top 32,  it could be 7.

In my view, Harrison, Nabers and Odunze are top 10, and Thomas is top 20, and Franklin is top 32.  That is 5 WRs going in the first round.

Now, there is something to consider--the Panthers apparently had 2 meetings with Malik Washington, a 5'8" tall slot WR out of UVA who should be available in the third round or even on day 3. 

So what will be available with the #33 pick?  A TON of solid WR talent (Listed below).  However, we need a polished route runner and a guy with good hands who can work the middle and the sidelines.  I had not really heard of him until the combine, but he kept catching my eye.  Don't laugh, but if I was going to take a WR in the second round, I think I would take Pearsall.  Here is why:

WR Ricky Pearsall. Elite Combine performance, great hands, great route runner.  6 ft 1 inches tall.  195 lbs.

  • 40: 4.41 (82nd percentile)
  • Vert: 42” (97th percentile)
  • Broad: 10’9” (89th percentile)
  • 3-cone: 6.64 (93rd percentile)
  • SS: 4.05 (89th percentile)

Others

  • Polk UW
  • Legette SC
  • J. Baker  UCF
  • J. Wilson Fl St
  • McConkey UGA
  • Mitchell Tex
  • Coleman Fl St
  • Worthy Tex
  • Corley WKY
  • Walker UNC
  • Burton Bama
  • Wilson Michigan

 

It seems to me if we are interested in Washington later in the draft as a slot WR, we are probably going to draft an X WR at 33.  Imagine this:

  • Thielen
  • Pearsall
  • Mingo
  • Malik Washington
  •  Marsette-Smith
  • Marshall Jr


I think that would be a significant upgrade.  Now, the reason I did this is some of you were talking about McConkley--and I love him--but if we are talking to Malik Washington, we are not looking for a slot WR until later in the draft.  That would restrict the players we'd take at #33.

I think we could trade down 5-10 spots and still get Pearsall.

If recent history holds, we'll trade up into the first round to take Malik Washington.

That eliminates Worthy to here then.  By the time Bryce does his 15 yard drop and 5 bunny hops, Worthy would be 40 yards down field, not to mention the time it would take his floater to get there...then 60 yards down field for the speedster.  The ball would fall 20 yards short.

his legs look like twigs, he gonna hold up in the NFL?

There have been some very skinny WRs coming out of college lately.  They seem to be holding up okay in the League.  The biggest thing is knowing how not to take a big hit.  These dudes know they are not turning into RBs after the catch and avoid as much contact as possible.

      Down With The Devils: Series Wrap-up

      By Stumpy · Posted

      Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
