Correction: DK Metcalf, Adonai Mitchell AND Brian Thomas are the only 3 WRs to run that time at that size. Tweet was made before Thomas ran his 40. Apologies there, enjoy the day!
Glad I checked the comments before I said anything lol with the Bills basically guaranteed to take a WR at 28 - now that they traded Diggs - and feature them heavily, I would love to have either of these guys catching passes from Josh Allen. I have 1.05 & 1.09 in my 1QB league, but I need RBs, so I’ll probably be taking best receiver available at 1.05 and my RB1 (hopefully if Benson or Brooks goes to Dallas in the 2nd).
After the big three at the top you’ve got Thomas, Mitchell, Franklin, Bowers, McConkey lots of upper tier talent and still Keon Coleman and Xavier Legette after that. Very nice WR class indeed.
11 might be on a WR if Rome Odunze is there , then they can take Penix Jr a Lil early at 23 !! The other option is most likely Bo Nix at 11 unless someone likes him enough in the top 10 or to trade up once the 1st four QBs are gone
This was great. Mentioning things that others fail to like who else was on the team & not being asked to run routes (like Thomas), but you should also include who the QB was _and_ what other things they did better than other receivers; fewer dropped passes etc. I know, fit these into time is tough. So I'd suggest making multiple parts - it's the off-season anyway & fans are starving for content & include such things. Like here's something I got elsewhere, Nabers has more broken tackles than Odunze & MHJR combined. Then again, take everything I say with a grain of salt. This works to _MY_ preferences. I'm dyslexic & so somewhat dependent upon hearing these things. *You* have to balance out how much research to content to keep your channel productive. But having those stats that others miss is a great way to put you above others in this glutted market. Since you're already doing some & based on the comments, it's liked, that's where I'd suggest expanding. & if it doesn't get fan approval, you can always return to what does, this. Great job on what you _did_ catch. 👍👍👍
Watching all his games... Ladd is a do it all monster at WR. Blocks, route running, strength, will punish a DB, is just overall as clutch as it gets. He has an arm too.
@@SalVetri I caught how you mentioned that Ladd doesn't _have_ so many contested catches & you implied that it's _because_ he wins so often by running routes. But I'm not even sure you were implying that. If that _is_ something you meant to say, then saying it can be what separates you as a content creator from the rest of the pack. A _lot_ of people are afraid to go out on a limb on things like that. I can't tell if you're being cautious or I'm reading too much into what you said. But if that *is* a genuine observation, don't hold back on it!
Troy Franklin is severely underrated imo. 4.41 is a great time especially considering he had a 1.61 10 yard split (worst of all wrs) He’s an elite athlete who had a bad start on his 40 yard dash. Realistically he’s a burner and his tape says he’s one of the fastest in the class only behind Worthy
One thing that bugs me that I keep seeing about MHJ, they’re saying his yac has improved but there’s context to that. He had 5 missed tackles forced last year. His yac is not from making guys miss or running over guys, it’s simply from beating worse competition deep down the field and scoring long tds.
As much as I want a WR (or Bowers) in Round 1 for my Colts, I am fine if they go CB in round 1 and WR in round 2. The WR class is scary deep. Yes, you want one of the top three guys, but there are a lot of nice consolation prizes out there.
I think Wilson is slept on just because hes a big receiver but looks alot like mike evans , and baker , polk and corley are interesting guys also especially corley being 5'11 210-215 , and strong with good speed , could be the next deebo for someone
@@rainidayz5021 wr 4 😂😂😂. He no where near that good. He definitely better prospect than Keon and Troy however since both of those guys can only really succeed in one way. I can also understand putting him over Ricky but going over lad or worthy isn’t very wise
@@GLA45Amg716 no Ladd is way more polished and just as athletic in terms of explosiveness. Xavier is Bigger and stronger that’s about it when it come to him vs lad
I have 3 top 5 picks. 1.01, 1.03 & 1.05 in a 1 QB Leauge. My Qbs: J Love, B. Mayfield, D. Carr WRs: Puka, DJ Moore, B. Aiyuk, K. Shakir, Curtis Samuel, Michael Wilson, Rashid Shaheed, AT Perry. TE: Hockenson, Njoku, Chig Okonkwo, Dulchich My Question...With those 3 of 5 picks, assuming the 1.02 wants Nabers and the 1.04 wants Bowers. Would you go? A: MHJ, Rome, Caleb B. MHJ, Bowers, Caleb C. MHJ, Rome, Brian Thomas Jr
@@jobapete Thank you for the feedback. I understand the QB argument but I'm also considering the unique situation Caleb is in and the depth at WR this year. I can't think of a rookie QB with his profile stepping into a situation with two #1 wrs. Also there is a decent chance Ladd Mconkey, Legette, and or Troy Franklin will be there at the 2.01.
it all dependes where rome and thomas land. cuz mhj will be an automatic wr1 w kyler. But if rome goes to the bears hmm idk if i love it. and if brian goes to like the saints im also not loving it. in that case i would go w the B option. but if rome and brian go somewhere w good QBs and opportunity then go C
Putting Keon Coleman at number 10 is surprising, but everyone seems to be putting Keon Coleman low. Can’t wait to see how he compares to everyone’s expectations on the field.
@@mateoedwin4202 It’s surprising cause he beat 3 of the WRs listed higher than him, and he played amazingly all season. I would say 5th on the list is the bare minimum for Keon.
He returned kicks...dual athlete at highest level, part of a team that some woukd say was the best and was undefeated. Also, when on the same field as BT and nabers, he was beyond the best player on the field. Having Piersol, lad and Franklin , even worthy ahead of him simply doesn't read to me
@@mr.crossing5384 beat??? Congrats he had more yards in the ACC not a tough conference, Ladd Mitchell worthy all play in the SEC. He’s a jump ball guy who doesn’t separate receivers like him do not have a good track record the past drafts game is different
If the lions draft him he’ll be great. Pair him with Amonra as the slot, Jamo as the Z and Keon at the X will allow each of them to make up for each others weaknesses
Troy Franklin just had a bad start on his 40 yard dash. He plays WAY faster. Probably faster than everyone in the class besides Worthy and maybe Nabers. He got clocked at 22.31 mph against USC. Which would have been the fastest clocked time in the NFL this season, right ahead of DK Metcalf’s 22.23 mph in week 13. So I wouldn’t be too much stock into the combine… the game speed is what matters. He plays way faster than Odunze/Ladd/Mitchell, it’s pretty evident in the game film. He was also more productive this year than every WR outside the big 3.
You can be trained to run routes. You can’t train a guy to be a physical freak and run 4.33 at 209 pounds. If Thomas biggest knock is he doesn’t know how to run many routes sign me up. Thomas is going to be a difference maker. Nabers is going to be a game changer. Lol yall just let Thomas slip to pick 18 and the Bengals are going to rock the NFL this year. Thomas Chase and Burrow the boys from LSU.
you forgot to mention that Mitchell takes tight plays off. He indicated that there are times he’s saving himself so that he can be on the field the whole time. Sometimes he just looks lost not doing anything. Big red flag for me Did you not mention it because it’s not true or because you’re not concerned that that’s a red flag?
Brian Thomas Jr ran a 4.33. Malik Nabers ran a 4.35. Harrison did not run. Why not? If he was 4.49 or better I think he would have run. The only question is he a 4.5 guy or a 4.6 guy? Tee Higgins ran a 4.59 which is not particularly that fast for a pro athlete. But it hasn’t hurt him one bit. There are multiple ways to get open. Route Running or just bullying smaller CBs. Tee has some wheels to when he gets going. I’m sure that if Tee ran the 40 right now I it would be around 4.52.
MHJ didnt ran cuz it literally wouldnt do shit for his stock. we know he aint runnin a 4.3 which is fine thats not his game. so why run a low 4.4 or risk running a high 4.5 and damage his stock. or even worst he could pull a hamstring or strain his groin. the 40 injures a lot of people
@@123shoshan ok if he is better we will see where he is drafted. Mitchell is a high 2nd round pick. Nabers will go top 10 and Thomas too 15. Nabers will likely be either the 5th or 6th pick.
Malik Nabers is the number 1 WR in the draft this year and frankly he is the best WR coming out since Jamar Chase is 2021. Brian Thomas Jr. is the 2nd best WR coming out this year. Harrison is 3rd. Why you may ask? Because those first 2 guys can and do separate whenever the fuck they want to. They just run by cbs and safties. Show many any tape where Harrison is going against good CBs do that. Good luck looking bevause I can’t find any. No one but Harrison knows show fast he is. He would t test. He did no testing at all. That tells me that he thinks he would do bad at it. If I were him and I knew I had 4.60 speed I probably would test either. Nabers and Thomas faced future NFL CBs every week in the SEC and they didn’t just excel they dominated! Thomas led the country in td passes. Nabers was second I. Receiving yards. Odunze is good too but again he has trouble separating. And who was the last great WR that came out of Washington? They produce good CBs but shortly WRs. The last one I remember was John Ross who by the way had college production he had multiple 1000 yard seasons so he wasn’t drafted just because of his speed. His 4.22 was far more impressive than Worthy’s 4.21. You know why? Because he weighed 190 pounds when he ran it.
Coleman's 4.61 is not that bad. Plenty of quality NFL WRs that ran similar times and plenty of "speedsters" that amounted to nothing. Larry Fitzgerald, Rice, Hopkins and Chris Carter. Boldin and Chad Johnson also come to mind.
‘plenty’ is an exaggeration here imo. You list hall of famers, they are the outliers. Yes it’s possible to overcome slow speed, but for his role and traits it’s a big downside and historically damning more times than not. It’s not best to use the biggest outliers as the baseline. Would be similar logic to saying “Making $4 an hour isn’t bad because Mark Cuban did it when he was young” if that makes sense.
@@SalVetriguys who run slow 40s aren’t given as much opportunity so that alone is gonna create less of them. Look at all the tight ends who run 4.6s and 4.7s who can get open still. Bet kelce right now could barely run a 4.65. Route running acceleration and change of direction size and ball skills matter a lot as well. Honestly wish people didn’t have to glorify the 40 as much as they do. All anybody cares about or values. So much context it leaves out when just looking at a straight line 40 yard run which you never emulate in a game.
@@SalVetri Ahhh there are plenty of fast WRs that suck. 4.61 is not slow enough to indicate a WR will suck. Have to look at all the attributes including game speed. Coleman has a good burst and had 11 TDs. He was also a good punt returner. Not saying he is a guy I'd take real early and without a 3rd we probably won't.
@@jamesnelson8469 you mentioned skills that Keon doesn’t have. Out of all the skills you listed the only one Keon has is Great ball skills he isn’t a good route runner nor is he very elusive after the catch. He’ll pair greatly with any team who already has a good Z and a good slot wr. That will cover his weaknesses. Such as the lions with Jamo and Amon-ra
Wow, you just dropped Bo Nix as a second round draft pick as if that’s the consensus. I’ve definitely could see him going in the second but very few Pundits have him going outside of the top 20.
@@SalVetri The dude barely could even create any separation in college. Good luck in the nfl. It’s clamps for days. Be glad he had Penix throwing to him. Different story once draft rolls around.
@@SalVetri I don’t believe so. Esp against man. He’s mainly open due to zone coverages. Go look at the film on Marvin Harrison, Nabers & Odunze. The other 2 create massive seperation while Odunze really can’t. Yes, great hands but he got a ton of chemistry with Penix also on back shoulders etc.
LSU doesn’t need to and don’t hype up their athletes with lies dude. The reason Malik didn’t run at the combine is because he was recovering from a calf injury. He doesn’t have to lie. He ran a 4.35. LSU doesn’t lie. I’m offended you even said that. Other colleges might do that but LSU does not. You know why? Because last year Kayshoun Boutte ran a high 4.5 and everyone thought he was much much faster. LSU recorded a I think 4.57. And also you do realize that some colleges have the same setup at their pro days that the NFL has at the combine right? Like the laser thingy that measures your run times. It’s accurate is what I’m trying to say. And every god dam coach in the NFL were there and they are free to accept the laser verified time or they are free to pull their stopwatch out of their pockets and time the run themselves.
After the big three at the top Harrison Jr, Nabers, and Odunze you definitely have some excellent bargain picks in the second round that are more likely first round talent. Keon Coleman to me at anything below 35 is a steal. As your WR2-3 he’s gonna make a lot of nice plays for you in his areas of strength on the field including in the red zone. Quality over quantity as he’s unstoppable in those areas. Troy Franklin and Ladd McConkey also nice nice adds.
Playing wr is based of your ability to start and stop. The internet has everyone expecting these guys to all run sub 4.2… only 9 wr ran faster and 5 of them are projected to go after him.
Coleman is not a top 10 WR in this or any other draft, big for no reason, slow off the line bad route runner, no separation. Your top 10 is way off.. 1. Odunze 2. MHJ 3. Nabors 4. BTJ 5. ADONAI 6. Leggette 7. Ladd 8. Corley 9. McMillan 10. Pearsall 11. Franklin 12. Worthy 13. Walker... ETC. Are all better then Coleman, the guy is a slower less athletic Claypool! Take a chance in round 4 to see if he could be developed, no earlier..
Jaylin Hyatt didn’t have a great rookie season by no fault of his own. If Drew Lock starts I could easily see his stats better than doubling, close to tripling
Your hyping up drew lock. DREW LOCK. You setting your self up for disappointment. Hyatt is just a deep threat he won’t produce that much better than he did last year especially not with Drew lock throwing the ball. For Hyatt to succeed he needs to be pared with a great x Wr and a great slot. Which the giants do not have although wan’dale is promising in the slot
@@Mokuteke I’m saying lock is a big improvement over what we have now. We have seen Daniel’s ceiling and it’s pretty close to the floor, he has no ability to read the defense or go through the progressions after his first receiver. The giants reached on him in the draft and he most likely would have been available in the third if any one wanted to waste a pick. At least lock has pocket presence and knows he has options besides running and getting hurt. And Hyatt was open and barely used last season because someone couldn’t look past the first read.
@@NotRizzo lock is not better then Daniel at all. Lock is a first read Qb after that all his knowledge goes out the window and he just improvises. Which can lead to big plays or lead to a incredibly dumb looking pick
I hope the Bengals can get Johnny Wilson. The guy is 6’7’’ 231 and runs 4.52 for fucks sake. Or Xavior Legette. I like him a lot too. I hope One of them is still available o. The 3rd round.
@@jd67543 because his production way better all American as a freshman and he just way better lad ain’t did shit man now you give me your reasons why a WR who never had over 800yards in 15 games vs a wr that give you close to a 1000 in 10
