I know we don't really need a receiver, his potential is "Anquan Boldin", we need defense, he might not drop and you see these types of videos semi-often.

But after watching this, I'd feel really good drafting him, unlike Dez and Crabtree, he cares about other people besides himself. Tear to my eye.

I have little doubt we'd take him if he fell to #9.

However, I have no doubt that he will not fall to #9.

I think he's a Hakeem Nicks clone. He's not Steve Smith. Neither is Anquan Boldin. But what he will be is a very solid WR who you can count on for years. Hakeem Nicks and Anquan Boldin and great comparisons.

Is that worth the #9 overall pick? I think it is when you already have your franchise QB and your #1 WR is at the point in his career where he could start to decline at any moment.

I think his absolote best possible outcome is T.O. without the drama. And his worst case is probably, ehhhh...Michael Crabtree.

He really reminds me more of T.O. though. They seem to run similar, and both are not as explosive off then line, but really really explosive out of their breaks.

Also, he has nice hands to fight off jams, which is esstential. Also, Smitty is a god at this, and would continue to help in there.

I don't think he will fall, but I wouldn't be surprised either.

Some crazy poo happens in the draft, who would have thought the dumbass falcons would offer a ransom for Julio Jones last season

I disagree for the air Coryall you need a number 2 WR that can get separation and LaFell does not do that well.

    • No one way to do it, it does appear that with the bigger draft picks of the last 5 years…..majority haven’t steered clear of young QBs on the roster being their hopeful guy. Especially past their rookie seasons but even some the biggest ones have had it early.   As far as Andy Dalton, the two young guys he has “mentored”…..have had very rough NFL starts.  Which really ask the why the heck is Dalton here.   He doesn’t really check any box.  No young potential.  Can’t step in and win.  And his mentor track record with Fields and now Bryce is bad 
    • I had thought the Panthers might let him play out his contract this year and hope he stays healthy. If not draft a left tackle and move Ekwonu to right tackle. 
    • Frankly, if most teams in the NFL lose their starting QB for a significant amount of time, they're screwed. The fantasy is that one has a future Tony Romo or a Nick Foles that can carry a stacked team. The reality is that you might get roughly 3~5 games out of your backup before it all falls apart. Remember all of Peyton Manning's backups? Utterly terrible. Speaking of backup QB's, Raiders may need one. https://www.nfl.com/news/raiders-qb-aidan-o-connell-suffered-fractured-wrist-in-preseason-finale-expected-to-be-out-6-8-weeks
