WR Poll - Temperature Check

[amcoolio]

Charlie Campbell says Legette is reminiscent of Breshad Perriman coming out of college. Same size, speed, rawness and traits. Not exactly a ringing endorsement

Ladd McConkey, but if not him, any route runner with pure separation abilities.

But there's more comps to DK Metcalf, AJ Brown, Deebo, and I even saw one to David Boston.

Daniel Kelly had a really interesting writeup on him.

Lots of ringing endorsements all over the place. People don't know what to expect, but from watching him last year they get a good sense of what he can be, and it's pretty stinking good

Living in reality…all of the WRs that will be there at 33 have major flaws and all might bust.  This team has to take the best football player available.  We need talent.  With no first rounder we have to deal with it

Major flaws?

Lol just a bit dramatic

These guys go pretty far into the wr depth in the draft

I would prefer someone not made of glass and also someone who isn't super thin and tiny who will be injury prone and easily breakable in the pros. I realize size isn't everything in the NFL but to play safe the guy who only weighs about 165 pounds that suddenly became in the talks I would throw him out immediately. Steve Smith was undersized supposedly but he was still like 185-190 pounds. Huge difference.

Pretty sure Devonta Smith hasn't missed a game in his first 3 years of 1000 yard seasons. About as skinny as it gets

He is tough for sure but I'm willing to bet has a history of that toughness in college and barely missed either. I feel like that's an outlier for a smaller guy though. I just want our top pick this year to be maximized and not be a TMJ bust but become a solid player who isn't injury prone.

Troy Franklin and Burton

I'm already sold on Legette but know him personally and had all too many interactions with him the past couple years because I'm biased and love the dude as a human being. He is going to be something special at the next level I can feel it. The person inside he is and the hungry to be the best he can be humble good guy is going to transfer well to being extremely coachable and able to develop as he goes. Not to mention an insanely great work ethic and maturity level not often seen in college. This guy is a total package and will amount to a great player for whoever is smart enough to take him.

Someone (not me) should do a huddle mock draft using polls to choose each pick.  It would be interesting to see who we get

The problem is the best receivers are self centred fugwits haha 

[chbright]

Corley not on the list but r. Wilson and Polk? Not a Polk fan at all and that's mighty high on r. Wilson, even though I'm a fan.

Went Franklin, but Corley is right up there if it's 39 or earlier. 

Outside the 2nd, I think there is still great value (Luke mcc, Washington, McMillan, B rice.....)
