Warren is a better prospect than Olsen, IMO. Not saying he'll be as good a player, but purely as a prospect I'd rank him higher than Olsen.

I don't agree. Olsen looked like a noticably quicker prospect with the same size. Olsen would go top 5 in this draft would be my guess vs 31st. He ran a 4.55 and Warren looks 4.7+ (or 4.6ish if his school did it at his proday). There is a reason he didn't work out at the combine or his proday and it's obvious. He is a solid but not great TE prospect. He only has room to lose by showing his real numbers.

I didn't even know that about Warren. Count me out on guys who are scared to workout because they know their metrics won't look good.

Yup. It's such an huge yet ignored red flag. If he could back up his current value he would have done at least the more favorable proday. Still people are simping hard the week of the draft and all I can think is that the options have fooled people into think that entire teir isn't teir 2 for a reason.

Mykell Williams being Verge and Charlie Campbell pick has me a tad worried. Is he really worth it??

one year ago he was thought of as #1 and clear top 5 for many coming into the season. He had a high ankle deal game one and kept playing, never gone the burst back. Said he was 100% healthy recently and had very "meh" workouts.

I just view him as the worst outcome, that's fine by me. There's about 20 others I feel the same about, just a odd draft.

I was unaware of this as well. Supposedly he's been willing to do individual workouts with teams instead. Still though that's not what you want to see at all from someone under consideration for a top 10 pick especially at a position like TE. We just need to go DL at 8 and keep it moving.

      Maybe, but a player can also bust for a lot of reasons.  And I'm not about to go look up the stats of all the 1st round WR busts, but I'd be surprised if they had the sustained output and success in college that T-Mac had.  Those early WR busts are usually guys who had one breakout season and then were highly drafted because of physical potential, not already built out ability. I'm not even saying T-Mac is 100% going to have a better career than Chark (although I obviously think he will). I'm just saying that right now, his skill level and ability is better than Chark's ever was, and I don't understand how anyone is arguing against that, not because of T-Mac, but because of who Chark himself was.   If you want to take the argument that you can't say ANY player who hasn't played a down yet can't be considered better than someone who has, then so be it (even though I'd say that's a dumb stance anyways). At his peak ability, Chark was more like a #3 WR than anything else, he was the definition of a league average WR.  If you don't think a Top 10 selected WR with his tape is better than that just because they haven't played in the NFL yet, then you're just stuck on the "he hasn't played a down yet" idea and can't evaluate them as players and abilities.

      And you would've probably said the same thing about a lot of highly drafted WRs who busted.
