People keep propping up school tape like it's amazing when projecting the play to the NFL. This is what a school freak looks that dominates school players and will be a 100% stud in the NFL.

It's cool that these guys played well in school but show me 1 guy in this draft who is this talented? That is what dominance looks like. We got a shot at some solid football players but damn the hype for these guys needs to go to the level it really is and not where some of yall want it to be.

I want a WR actually willing to do agility drills. I want to draft a receiver that is actually fast at stopping and starting. We've spent 15 years drafting big guys that run fast in a straight line and/or jump real high. Give me a guy that can get open in a phone booth over a guy that needs a runway.

Yep, exactly.  In the NFL these days you need quick shifty receivers that get open running their routes.  Separation is key.  We keep drafting wr's like it's 1999 and we are just going to throw deep balls in to double coverage, when the modern NFL defense is a shell that focuses on stopping over the top passes.  We literally keep trying to build to what the rest of the NFL has already figured out and learned exactly how to stop.  The same with chasing the seahawks and legion of boom defense always.

Per Daniel Jeremiah, he hasn’t come across anyone that has him top 10.  Mentioned some teams have him below 20th overall. Highest in the 10-13 range. 

 

Kinda puzzling to me because of how weak the top of the class is.  If he's Drake London, that's gotta be a pretty good pick out of this class right?  London was selected 8 overall and PFF had him ranked as the 7th best receiver last year.

If you line him up versus his common comparisons - Drake London is a bit better after the catch and Michael Pittman a bit better at out powering DBs for jump balls. You take those away and it’s a solid guy, but unsure if teams see enough that helps them really elevate their offenses.

      Predictions from Charlotte observer sports writers

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Fowler: Bucs 23, Panthers 16. Baker Mayfield only won a single game when he was an unimpressive Carolina starter, but somehow he’s 5-0 when playing AGAINST the Panthers. For the Panthers to pull off this upset, they’ll need to score at least in the mid-20s. With Tampa Bay relatively healthy following a mini-bye (and Mike Evans’ return is huge), it feels like this will be too tough a task. Kaye: Bucs 24, Panthers 20. The win-loss-win-loss streak comes to an end. It’s hard to trust the play-calling following the loss to the New Orleans Saints. The Panthers know what’s on the line, but they also knew last week, too. It’ll be close; I just have trouble trusting a positive outcome after a defeating one on the road. Zietlow: Panthers 38, Bucs 35. This prediction goes against conventional wisdom, but then again, conventional wisdom doesn’t seem to apply to these Panthers. This group, after all, has yet to lose back-to-back contests since Weeks 1 and 2. I think they win this one to make Week 18 interesting — and yes, that’s even with motivated Baker Mayfield and future Hall of Famer Mike Evans in good form. Why not?

      Week 16 - Other NFL Games

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      Sam developed into a different player after he mostly sat for a year and learned a ton by being in that QB room under Shannahan in San Francisco.  Then he went to the Vikings who have a poo load of talent and another genius level offensive mind at HC in Kevin O Connel. I think they genuinely built up his confidence in a way he never did in New York or Charlotte.  He would not have been the same player if he stayed here IMO. Especially if he had been involved in that disaster season with Frank Reich in 2023, that might have cooked his confidence for good.  I guess you could argue we wouldn't have been that bad if we also kept cmc and dj i guess.

      Willis was impressive last night given the circumstances. GB and SF seem to just have it figured out as far as QB goes.   It's frustrating, but I enjoy seeing our old players find success elsewhere.
