If Blackmon falls to us...

I'm 99.2% sure that there will be offers from other teams to move up and take him. We need to focus more on defense so if he's there I really think we need to give him a pass and trade for more picks. The reason I made this is because quite a few analysts have him falling, not sure why.

I'd love to see that happen. We could trade the pic with somebody who has fallen in love with Him and make out pretty well. But idk man we might look at blackmon and keep him if he falls to us. He's too talented. We would have to get a crazy good deal for that to give him up

i've seen some serious discussion about kendall wright passing him up as the best WR in the draft.

people seem to think that once/if blackmon runs a 4.8 40 or whatever people will lose interest and he'll drop on people's boards significantly. some mocks have him dropping into the teens.

depends what he runs.

Blackmon is not fast. He will run 4.5-4.6 range. Blackmon is known for very good route running ability, good hands, not afraid of contact and will go and get a ball in double coverage. He's exact copy of Boldin. He will excel as #2 WRs but will struggle as #1 WRs. He is not top #20 pick. Gettis is much better option.

I see Claiborne dropping all the way to #8. Only Vikings needs CB in top 8 but their OL is so horrible that it will not surprise me if they go with Reiff #3 overall. Purple jesus had no holes to run through and grew extremely frustrated with OL.

Blackmon will be way better than Anquan Boldin imo. There are some people who you watch them play and you can tell they just have it. I would say blackmon would be more comparable to Hakeem Nicks than Boldin. Big body big hands and enough speed. Not burner speed, but he's plenty fast to beat people deep. I still think he's a solid #1 WR.

    • CJ Stroud going to flame out if he doesn't watch out..
    • This play was never designed to go to either DJ or Odunze. The primary read is Burden who is stymied early, with the outlet being Kmet if Caleb doesn't like the option for Burden. Given the situation it's pretty obvious the simple play is to take the free yards with Kmet, or if you want to be aggressive just wait a beat longer for Burden to uncover on his double move. If Moore was ever going to be a viable target in this play then Caleb should have started out reading Odunze to hold the safety in the middle and then coming to Moore, but because he started the snap staring down the right and then came back to the middle late it made it where the safety's leverage remained to the outside of Moore, so he would never have imagined that pass actually being thrown to him in that situation. Realistically DJ's best option in that context is to just occupy the safety to leave a hole open for Caleb to get it to Burden, which is probably why he throttles down vs carrying the safety across.
    • Even with Sonny Styles still on the board I thought it's a no brainer to address the Oline after Icky's injury.  And how can you pass up Fano at 19 given our situation. Then the rest of the draft just kind of made sense with maybe the exception of Klubnik.  But if Canales can fix him and Young goes down. . .I think it's a solid pick. What do you think of this draft?
