Do you guys ever get the feeling sometimes these guys and other well known dynasty pods like to piss on certain rookies so they can grab them at a discount in their leagues?
Malik Washington had like a 63% contested catch win rate. That is a crazy stat for a 5-8 195# guy. He can jump out of the gym and has late hands to win at the point of the catch. I am the head of the Malik Washington fan club.
@@Zabougie I’m not very high on Franklin. I think he’s a late 2nd-early 3rd round prospect, solely a deep threat. But Brett seems to have something personal against him lol
@MarchOnRome I could just be projecting, but I think I sound like a big Franklin hater sometimes as well because I feel the need to push back against the very vehemently vocal section of fans who swear he should go in the 1st. Now at the end of the second or later, I agree, I'm taking a good hard look at dude and considering adding him to the squad as a good vertical wr prospect. Brett might need to clarify where he has him lol.
Tyler Lockett is my favorite comp for Ladd I’ve seen so far. That’s really nice. And makes a lot more sense than the Cooper Kupp thing (a much bigger, more physical style of player). In terms of that fast, gliding slight-of-frame route runner with inside-outside versatility who can win downfield and underneath, that’s a really nice comp. I also agree that Tyler definitely has better hands.
I've also heard Antonio Brown and Demarius Thomas thrown out there. I'm a little concerned about his frailty; he was constantly banged up at UGA. Point is, I think I like the AB comp best, but swap out time missed for physical health (Ladd) for mental health (AB).
Odunze will have no problem, creating separation at the NFL level, as he continues to refine his route running. Barring injury and depending on who's throwing to him, he could easily wind up being the best receiver in this year's draft class.
@felixlara2945 according tracking data from when everybody actually played, he isn't even the fastest wr in the draft. He got an amazing 10 yard split that made his great speed look like transcendent speed during the 40. But 40 times aren't everything.
So on the point about Keon Coleman's real game speed being shown in the gauntlet drill- A better measure might be using (unfortunately non-public) PFF Game Athleticism Score (GAS). Puka was a 99th percentile GAS guy in addition to the gauntlet drill performance meanwhile Coleman was a just a respectable 93rd percentile.
This is exactly the kind of draft content I LOVE: pure, highly detailed player analysis. I’m much less interested in playing guessing games about what (insert random team’s GM here) thinks (insert another random team’s GM here) is gonna do at (insert random pick here). Tell me who these players ARE in the most granular terms you can muster.
I'm kind of hoping for Adonai Mitchell at 28 the Legette in the second. I know some ppl are talking about us trading up but with the depth in this class I'm not sure if it's needed. Also in the second if we can get Jermaine Burton I would be stoked, he's underrated by many ppl. PPF has him higher than Legette, Koleman and Polk.
Here for the Rome Odunze opinions after the Bears drafted him... He's in a great position to fit into a lineup of receivers with other specialties that set up his ability to cook...
1:14:28 - 1:15:35 Frank Reich, Thomas Brown, and Shawn Jefferson all need to be tried for coaching malpractice for how they treated Jonathan Mingo in 2023. Dave Canales and Brad Idzik have a ton of work to do, obviously, but if they can get him in his right role early on in 2024, it should be a harbinger of good things for the Carolina Panthers.
I don’t get the people,and there are a significant number of them,that have Nabors ranked over him. If you’re watching tape it’s not even close MJH does everything at an elite level. His route running is superb. He has breakaway speed. He has the best body control I have ever seen. And has prototypical size. He has no flaws.
Hello. Which 1 of this grouping shall I keep; Montgomery in 6th, Reed in 15th orr Ford in 17th? Already keeping Collins in 9th. It’s A 12 team FULL ppr league which starts 1 QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, FLEX (RB, WR), TE & DST with about 18-24 total keepers, only can keep 2. Thanks A bunch! - Tony Tuddy
My thing on the big WR hate is that theres alot of bust at WR no matter the size but theres less of those big WRs so the bust stick in there head more. Also, i believe teams will be more creative and use big WRs in the slot more now than they use to.
Finally some Josh Cepheus love! Dude killed the competition over at UTSA. Zaire Franklin as well very under rated. Love anias smith too. Great hands and speed. Also like j’lynn polk who got overshadowed by odunze but he’s big physical fast who can catch 50/50 balls
Mitchell is a looser, more fluid athlete than Pickens. The lower body flex is ridiculous. Ree-dic-you-las. Unbelievable movement skills for his size. Which is why Brett’s Lamb comparison makes more sense.
Ainias Smith was someone I recently heard about. When looking at some of his highlights it was instantly captivating. There is something different about this guy for sure. If the Chiefs could land him, I think they would use him the right way. Since Toney didn't work out and Rice is pretty limited on what he excels at. Ainias Smith is both those guys in one, but better. Oh, and if the injury prone Pachecho goes down he can take that over if needed.
Josh is actually the top rated QB on PFF this past year, that includes running and passing. In passing he is second only to Tua so idk what ur talking about. He had 3 more picks than Mahomes but also scored 18 rushing TDS.
I LOVE the Danny dimes slander (as a giants fan) but penix won’t be there in round 2 but would endorse MHJ and trade back up into 1st for penix. Honestly if MHJ isn’t there just take penix with 6 and go WR second round
It's amazing how many guys can't catch with their hands who dominate college football. If you don't catch with your hands, to me, you're a 3rd rounder at best. Wasnt hip on quinten Johnson in the first round last year to LAC. I liked him a lot, but if you're an outside receiver who body catches im not betting on you to learn how to. You'd figure that would be a glaring weakness you'd address quickly at the college ranks. I just don't believe in the idea of there being many guys who can get away without using the extension of their arms and still being able to be a consistent mover of the ball. Casual deep threat with speed? Okay, but them hands make so many more passes good passes to a player.
I hope Johnny Wilson got some love in here cause I just don’t understand beyond drops . He moves like Mike Pittman and Mike Evans and those profiles don’t miss as often as prototype x or slot guys .. flankers and mix x /slot guys have the highest miss rate on projecting them
Word on the street has McConkey and the Bills being enamored with each other. I would love for Kollmann to be right and see the Panthers get him at 33.
I really hate listening to after the bills drafted Keon Coleman. It just sounds like their gonna play him at X and he will fail there. It's just a wrong assessment of his talent and their setting him up for failure. I really hate how the bills evaluated talent thinking they can take 3 rounds picks and treat them Like they can compete with the chiefs they just can't if your picking like this. You are setting your team up for failure

That intro foam with the audio is just so satisfying.
man, Bootleg bringing in heavy hitters this offseason
If the bears get Rome I may ascend to a higher plane
Good news :)
Thinking about it, I want to be selfish and have the Pats take Marvin Harrison Jr at 3, just so we can see Harrison vs Sauce twice a year
Thats not selfish thats just good football being played at the highest level.
Harrison clears Sauce in any situation
Y’all won’t see that matchup if you don’t have a qb to get the ball to Harrison
That is the same logic as Telesco helping Justin Herbert last year by drafting QJ as a project receiver.
Worthy isnt in the 180's. He's 166 lbs
He'll definitely weigh more in the league than he did at the combine, he can gain 10-15lbs and still be the fastest guy on the field at all times
@felixlara2945 according tracking data from when everybody actually played, he isn't even the fastest wr in the draft. He got an amazing 10 yard split that made his great speed look like transcendent speed during the 40. But 40 times aren't everything.
@felixlara2945 not everybody weighs more. His size was a big concern coming in and he might have tried to bulk instead of cut for the combine.
@@jtdesverdad I'm simply stating a fact that they got wrong
They really should time them in the 40 in full football gear. Who cares what they run in their underwear.
So on the point about Keon Coleman's real game speed being shown in the gauntlet drill- A better measure might be using (unfortunately non-public) PFF Game Athleticism Score (GAS).

Marvin Harrison Jr plus Justin Herbert equals Matthew Stafford and Calvin Johnson.
