Just a Pats fan coming to Steve Smith for reassurance 😁
Same here bro
Steve Smith had him as 17th on his WR board below even Mccaffrey lol…
Same
Same 😂
First thing I did
The fact that Steve compared Polk and Baker to TJ n Ocho before they got drafted to the same team is wild.
Polk is the real deal. Odunze casts a large shadow because he’s great but Polk consistently makes big time plays and has the mentality every team needs.
No bs!! I feel the same way, his hands are solid af!!! Imma Texans fan and all 22 season I would do my best to catch the late game for Washington looking for a QB hopeful (Penix) and was WOW'd by Rome, and I watched game after game...Polk would make play after play if wasn't Rome... I'd love to have Polk in a Texans uni, I'll just say that!!
It's not that you like every WR, it's just that this class is deep as hell bro.
Big dash knows what!!?!?
Maye and Polk bout to tear it up in NE let’s go we need good football back in NEW ENGLAND BABY🎉!!!
I wish you would put your money where your mouth is!
I would gladly remove you from $1000. Polk would be ok as an NFL #2 best as a #3.......your PC Thunder cats drafted him as a #1😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 good luck with that! Next year you will be drafting third at best. Welcome to 1988 Thunder cats fans.
I'm curious why Steve Smith is hyping this dude
@@user-qt1il7gx4jcuz he a dawg who getting underrated by shit ass scouts
@@user-qt1il7gx4j Because he's good. Lol
@@user-qt1il7gx4j because he a dog
Polk and Baker were huge additions for NEs offense. Won't surprise me in the slightest if they eventually become WR1 and 2
Please age well please age well please age well
Demario in the slot as well with Henry down the seam or crossing whatever it (maye) be. Finally a WR core thats hungry to win. Belichicks choice of WRs lately have been terrible besides bourne
Bro catches EVERYTHING! thats going to translate well at the next level. Another great weap for Drake when hes ready to start. Pats are building a monster!!
How you feeling about Maye broski….?
@PATRIOTTTT STUD!!!! We don't gotta look around the league and flirt with other qbs no more. We got a legit stud at quarterback 😤😤 wait until preseason you're going to be smiling from ear to ear. Bro is a DUDE, since last year before Daniel's and JJ came out of nowhere it was all about him and Caleb. They were 1-2 up until the end of last year season to the beginning of the draft. In my opinion I think we just got the best qb in the draft. I love Caleb and everything he does but bro is a little small compared to what you call an NFL body. Not saying he's not gonna be great but I think like Daniel's injuries are going to be an issue for them. You watch Drake in college bro just pops right back up after a hit, he's got the body to play big in the NFL, got the arm talent to make all the throws, seems to be very coachable and looks like a locker room guy I mean I can go for hours man. Lol we got a good one how about that 😂
Pats fan here. I'm hype af on the two WRs we drafted for Maye.
Thank you guys. Hey there's alot of content out there and all have there merits.
When it comes to WR's , there's no one that I trust more than Steve Smith. I watched his whole career and I can definitely say he was one of the best.
Who better to break down receivers than a future HOF receiver IMO ?
Rome may have been the number 1 but in the championship game Polk came thru and killed it and still put n 1100 yard season #Tuff 😤😤
Been waiting for this one, love Polk’s game
steve, you're the man. great breakdowns. crazy how much talent there is in this class.
Thanks for this.much respect
After the Pats drafted him and I watched his highlights I was excited because he seems legit and hard nosed. He reminded me of a Anquon Bolden, TJ houshmanzahda, Hines Ward type of reciever.
That’s what I was saying about the way he plays. I saw his stuff in college last year and he was producing for sure.
I was waiting for him
Steve 😢 you are doing a excellent job 👏
He's the best
Thanks for doing that one. I had been waiting for it. I really like him. I'm hoping the Bengals can target him. He reminds me of Tyler Boyd with a smig of Tee wich is pretty similar to TJ. The been spoiled with physical Wr's, so it's my highest requirement for a Wr. Polk runs & flexs like Boyd after a big catch, I can't get it out of my head.
My favorite wr in the draft
Why is that? As a pats fan would like to know your analysis
@@charlesrayiii strong hands, high points the ball, can run more then 3 routes, doesn’t have to rely on athleticism to get open and bro is just consistent.
Also a pats fan doing some scouting and it means a lot coming from a great all time receiver like Mr smith 💪🏻
Thanks guys for the honest break down of this player. Maybe the Patriots will upset some teams this season. As a fan I appreciate you guys
Polk is keenan Allen 2.0 #LetsGoPats
Smitty, thank you for carrying my Dynasty team. Really appreciate it!
If he comes anywhere close to TJ I will be extremely happy
As a pats fan I absolutely love Polks catch radious an the way he attacks the ball with his hands an dont wait for the ball to hit him in the chest!
Luv the pick as a Die Hard Pats fan wanted Rome but Polk tuff to I want to see him with that size and hands in the slot 🔥🏈
So happy we got him here in Boston
I said this, before. Ja’Lynn Polk reminds me of Terry McLaurin. Catches everything. No matter what. Not quite, as fast as Terry, but fast enough. He’s also, a good blocker, which Terry is as well.
As a pats fan I love it. But really in general I think Steve is so great in this kinda role. Love his knowledge/humor of course, but also he’s always very fair, but the way he’s positive and fair esp with young guys coming up. He’s def got some hater in him haha, but he doesn’t hate on kids coming into the league which is awesome
I really liked this pick, but a thought he would be a 3rd round guy. Certainly a few teams had him high on their board, including the Patriots. The dude never drops, it's amazing!
McConkey never drops the ball either
I love the pick and think Polk could have even been a late first. Nabers went early and his number 2 Brian Thomas went later in the first. I don't see why with Rome going early next to nabers why Polk isnt/wouldn't be worthy of a late first round pick. He is a straight dog
@@aaronl8609helps when you barely play 😂 he's amazing 30 from 33 passes is great but real durability concerns.
Aaron Dobson didn’t have 1 drop on college either…
@@Peter_Gazer Dobson never came close to 1k recieving yards season in College. Look, nothing is guaranteed, you gotta evaluate what you can.
:50 "No I don't"🤣
@Stevesmithsr89 is so funny!
I respect the hell out of Steve Smith...was the definition of a dog ...one tough sob... And I respect his opinion on receivers...
I don't know why Steve isn't at some front office at Carolina I loves his takes
Ikr. If I'm an owner I'm signing him before someone else does. It'll prob happen soon though. Within the next few years.
too hood. not step n fetch it enough to be in front office climate. would have the suits nervous as hell on a regular basis. same would go for Marshawn Lynch. they both keep it 'too" real for that environment.
we would adore him being there but the people hiring want somene more like Samuel jackson in Django. Smitty will never be that guy
@@omniscient7333 you kinda have a point but i dont think Smitty is hood. He's got no off the field issues like Lynch. Heck of I'm an owner I hire him to work from home like he's been doing and just report his findings to my staff only.
4.52 is solid speed. Is he Randy Moss or Deion Sanders? No. But 4.5 is decent speed.
would love to see the "pure talent top 30" before the draft and landing places influence his assessments
It’s not he likes everyone. He’s not disrespectful or talking bad on them like those other guys!! SSSr is doing a real breakdown of their game. Something those “other guys” don’t know how to do. They’re just SUPER FANS …
I’m HOPING for a game breaker but a steady hand is appreciated
Been waiting for this one. Hoping my guy Steve doesn't destroy Polk, I think he has a potential to be a steal in the late 2nd early 3rd.
Let's keep it real if Steve did a negative review on a player y'all would be going crazy calling him out ready to cancel him.
Facts I would be calling a hater and every other name under the sun
He's given plenty of negative reviews and yet still not cancelled.....
East Texas baby stand up!!
Small world, I remember this dude from my junior high
Side note, in basketball they absolutely have different calls for the same thing. When it’s explained to you on TV they just call it PnR, but every team has different calls for it and different principles for where they set the picks, what the counters are for the different coverages they get, etc..
Damn polk got some good hands
Pennix throws a lot of floaters and high balls. Adjustment to the ball, and makes contested catches = has to slow down and wait for the ball, along with everyone else who had time to get there.
We can run this man in the slot with Baker on the outside and Thornton on the other side pulling the fastest CB coverage with him. It's a nice setup and if Thornton doesn't bring it Polk can definitely go outside and maybe we draft or sign a big speed receiver to complement these 2 next season
🦁 definitely looking at him I could see him like saint in the fourth as a value pick with the comps to TJ that’s 🔥 having DPJ tho makes it less likely to happen they similar athletes!
I need that Bo Jackson shirt!!
Curious to see Steve's thoughts on Ladd Mcconkey
Steve have you done a video on Rome Odunze? If we watchin who you don’t do videos on, I haven’t seen Rome’s video yet.
No I haven't and not going to do one. He's number 3 wideout taken off the board. Don't need to do it we know he's MFing Dawg 😂🎉
TH-cam algorithm you just knew I needed to see this huh 😊😏
He reminds me of HOF Steve Largent a pure technician at route running and off the line not 4.3 speed but still gets open everytime with unbelievable body control! Real reconize Real smitty knows what he's doing! Not to mention eliott wolfe world reknown for having the magic eye for wr talent go look at his work for green bay thats what hes known for from 2000's to 2015-16!
i hope steve make a Rome Odunze. Im really high on him
Been waiting on his Odunze review for months at this point
Sounds a bit like a less polished Tee Higgins type guy? Sounds like a great #2 for a lot of teams
Bub Means or Anthony Gould next as always great content!
Bub for sure
I wish the Pats had a rookie Steve Smith.
Steve can u do DB breakdowns? Wondering ur opinion on dejean
I'll give you my breakdown. DeJean is a great zone corner. He's probably good for four or five interceptions a year, and has the ability to take any of them to the house. He's a good returner. He could play free safety in a lot of systems. I don't think he is a shutdown man corner, or at least he hasn't shown that he is. Depending on the system he will probably be a pretty decent CB2 in the NFL. I don't think he can lock up NFL wr1s.
Hey Steve can you review Ricky Pearseall next. He’s a sleeper not many people are talking about
On deck. Did Coleman as well.
Slick Rick coming Monday, keep staying plugged in my friend.
I think alot of teams came to look at polk and oduzes tape and fell in love with penix
I disliked Steve Smith as a player, but I eventually realized he usually backed up his talk and play. And, I started using his WR analysis for fantasy because he’s usually spot on reading and breaking down guys. Very intelligent football IQ.
That's why I'm here brotha
LFG PATS FANS WE GONNA BUILD THIS TEAM BACK UP. GREAT DRAFT PICKS 24' .GOOD THING OUR D IS STILL ELITE.
LFG Polk 🔥🏈🇺🇲
Hey Steve did you already do Ladd Mchomie
Patriots fans were upset we took Polk instead of McConkey, but Pats already got Pop Douglas to play slot and Polk is a guy with a big catch radius and sure hands so he fits with Drake Maye more who's only weakness aside from footwork is consistent pin-point accuracy.
My comp for him is Rashee Rice. He's going to be very nice, maybe not a true WR1 but definitely could be a high end WR2
Can you do a breakdown on Moose Muhammad out of A&M the son of your former teammate? I think he's super underrated and deserves recognition🫡
Please do Ladd bro 😂😂
If we get a TJ type WR to start are rebuild I’m all for it to at dude was a dog !!
Had the same reaction finding out Coley was a part of this video as I did when we drafted Polk and Baker 💦
not gonna lie i can't wait till after the draft to see what steve smith says cus he censoring a lot of negatives we gotta be weary about
Do Dayton wade
7:30 cal fans in shambles
Welcome to NE Polk congratulations. You got plenty of opportunities to lock down the #1 spot.
No bad tape to show what he needs to work on
We need bub and Dayton wade vids
Steve i feel like you sleeping on Keon Coleman.. Probably because of his route running and feel for route running. I UNDERSTAND but those things are teachable..His production and film pass the test.. Also .THE fact that Keon Coleman returned punts is reason to believe he will become a good route runner..
I agree that’s my guy for us. He would b a scoring machine
Full breakdown for Coleman drops Friday, route running WILL be dissected. Stay tuned.
@@cuttoit Don't destroy him Steve..If he go to the Ravens or Panthers you need to mentor him bro..
Pats fans forgot that we have Tyquan as the burner. Maybe Maye can unleash his burner speed.
I am a huge Pats fan and I remember smith sr just embarrassing and punking Talib.. I love Talib but he got owned lol
the truth hurt...he indeed needed to ice up
technically sound
Pula nacua ain’t gonna burn you but he gonna be elite
As a Pats fan, I have to temper my excitement about any WR they draft. Because the Pats are so bad at drafting WRs. I hope this time they got it right, but I have to see it to believe it
Bill Belichick was so bad at drafting WR's.
Holy shit. This is where Coley went? Wow so random
Do Ricky Pearsall
He responded to a previous comment that Ricky Pearsall review will be posted Monday
I’d love to see him end up a Lion
He talking bout Ladd Mcconky
Steve Smith was pretty close to right on the RBs. Only 1 in the first two rounds. Not really shocking, though.
Polk Meyers 2.0
Can we get Bub Means next fellas??
My hs teammate 🔥💯 bub gonna be a physical specimen
Steve already said on the last video you commented on he not doing him lmao
@@thatfantasynetwork132 damn I wonder why
@@ASPHALTGARDE “not going to waste the hours watching a 7th round/free agency pick”
@@thatfantasynetwork132 he’s projected to go 3/4 round but okay
I’ve ran track unless your running year round your not gonna run your fastest time. A lot of those guys focus so much on that instead of their routes they wound up trash
Breakdown the other reciever Pats stole. Baker he's the WR1
Just sit maye and maybe sit polk or baker one of them and see if thorton has his full season and go from there we need a better o line
NFL Comp: Adam Theilen
I had Polk over odunze. I don't get the hype around odunze
Ladd McConkey??
Snow ❄️ 😢
Ja'Lynn Polk; currently being mocked at the end of 2nd/beginning of the 3rd round. I see a lot of contested catches...is he separating?? Will he have trouble separating at the next level? He'll definitely be a contributor, but see him as a WR3. And he needs a QB will to give his WRs a chance, and not one that needs to see the separation. But he should be able to work his way to becoming a decent starter on 3 WR sets on a team.
Please review McMillan, he’s so much better than Polk I don’t understand why everyone likes Polk so much more. McMillan reminds me of a more polished Chris Godwin coming out of college.
😂 he isn’t tho. Polk got the juice, I went to the games.
1:19 he’s talking to you bro
@@victormachado9112 did you go to the games McMillan played in? He was injured for most of the season.. McMillan is a better route runner for sure
That's just not true. Plus, Polk blocks better. Hes a dog.
Mcmillan my favorite not saying he's the best but he's a legitimate intermediate to deep threat reminds me of will fuller
Can he block?
!!!
Dear Steve, I hope this finds you well. Do you have anything bad to say about anyone anymore? After you got in trouble for your Johnny Wilson comments it seems like you have smooze on your face from everyone you watch. I want the old Steve who wasnt afraid to be critical back.
Doing well. I'm not afraid and I didn't get in trouble. I never took down what I said about him . I just don't feel like wasting time watching film on any players that don't move the needle for me. 28 wr we're drafted last year why should I do a breakdown on a kid who looks up to me and crush his dreams and a few scouts and coaches watch these and put him in negative out front. I do my reports that are both good and bad behind closed doors
@@Stevesmithsr89 respect!
I dislike how slow he is.
You can tell Steve is ad libing and didn't prepare. Just reading the scouting the profile then reacting off the cuff.
That’s a fun way of saying it’s a live review lol
Ur very mistaken. I've did my report on 39 guys months ago. All hand written / typed up myself. I hand picked the plays as well. Reading the the stats because not everyone has his information available to them.
Over prepared for 15-20 breakdown and doing multiple breaks down in one sitting..
your secret isn't really a secret to people who: 1. watch tape 2. keep up with draft shows and know what the rb class is like.
Listening to this is painful.
