Quinton Patton WR Louisiana Tech

(Text hierarchy and images for greater effect :) )

Its early, but it seems there's no clear cut #1 overall wr this year however a decent crop a really talented NFL ready guys in the top-8 or so.

I think this would be a perfect target in the 2nd round for us. He's a big reason why LA Tech has been so strong this season and I think he could be a stud in the making.

Last year after he gave Jonathan Banks a run for his money, Banks had this to say:

"I feel like (Quinton Patton) from Louisiana Tech is the best receiver I've played against since I've been here. I've gone against some good ones in the SEC, too, but he's probably the most complete."

Commanding respect from a top SEC CB prospect is a pretty good endorsement in my book.

If anyone knows him a little better or wants to give some feedback feel free to. Patton, T'Williams, Patterson, Hopkins, and Cobi all look like guys I'd like to see help improve our offense.

Nice find... yea he looks like a real possibility at the top of the second round. I think our best options are either to trade down into the middle of the first and gain an extra second and take the best WR available in the first. But if we cannot trade down this guy looks like he has potential. I wonder what how fast he is... I am hoping to get a WR faster than Lafell to be a #1.

I don't trust many draft sites too much until around Feb. (i.e. cbs, draftscout, etc) but from what I've dug up, his 40 time is about a 4.41 with obvious in-game upsides with his elusiveness and quickness.

the guy is a baller, you guys should look at the game breakdown of him vs Texas A&M. he runs great routes, and gains seperation from DBs with ease. like Kahakai said that was his best game by far, and you can see that from his stat line. he made several DBs get PI calls from his route running.

Yeah totally agree. That game, they knew LaTech was gonna be going to him nearly every passing down and he still lit it up. Started slow and then completely brought his team back nearly by himself alone. It also shows he's great for the goal line toss ups...he's very good at juking defenders.

Here's the A&M game:

He's projected to go around rounds 5-6(assuming he doesn't blow up the combine)... Would be really nice pick up for us.

per Walterfootball in November

Correct me if you've seen this elsewhere but there's no way this isn't picked by round 3 imo

As I said, don't trust those sites at least until January

I really want to add another 2nd in next year draft.

I really wish the next GM will do just that. I don't care about investing future picks. This team is a "win now" team. I want to win now! I don't want to keep waiting for next year, or the year after that.

We're only a couple pieces away from being a serious contender and giving other teams nightmares.

I want Star/Hankins in the 1st, Robert Lester/Jefferson/etc in the 2nd, and a WR like Patton/Rogers/Patterson in the mid to late 2nd.

THAT'S WHAT I WANT. THAT'S ME ONLY THOUGH.

    • In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?
    • The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.
    • That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
