I know  this will get flamed but i would not hate the idea. The guy is the best wideout to come out since AJ Green/Julio Jones. The guy does everything atleast average to above average. He high points the ball he's strong and could run as fast as 4.33(rumored). The guy is ripped for 205-210 receiver,and run over defenders. This guy is a weapon and would also be our new KR allowing ted to work on his wr skills.Every team in our division has a true number one and i'm exspecting Smitty to look even worse than this year. He is worth a top 5 pick and if he slips outside of that range I would not mind a move ala falcons a few seasons ago. Instant offense. I know we have needs everywhere but true bluechip players like this don't come out every year.  I can't watch another season of pray someone gets open for cam.

Watkins is a tempting prospect and I'd love to have him. However, I don't like the idea of mortgaging the future. #1 receivers can be had for a lower price than two first rounders. Look at whats happening with Bob in DC. They tossed, what, three first rounders to get him? Dude is falling off the wagon and DC is on suicide watch.

 

I'd rather wait our turn and take the best player available.

      Brooks RB, Placed on PUP, Out for 2025

      Its completely and utterly bootlicking at this point.  If you cannot acknowledge that using 3 picks on a rb with a torn acl in the 2nd round isnt a bad pick then you simply havent a clue about football.  Sorry man it is what it is.  And its insanely laughable you are trying to strawman this argument using other players.  And what fuging facts are you bringing that is justifing morgan using 3 goddamn picks on him?  I cannot wait to hear that.

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.
