So, if at pick 31 these 4 players are available, who would you take?

Josh Simmons
Walter Nolen
Luther Burden III
Emeka Egbuka

I would pick Walter Nolen. However, at our 2nd pick Luther Burden III and
Emeka Egbuka will be gone. Thoughts?

Omarion Hampton will not make it past Denver at 20.

Damn, that’s tough.

I don’t think Egbuka is quite as explosive or high-ceiling as Burden, but he’s also just so damn smooth.

I think he’s Jeremy Maclin, honestly. He can be a legit X but also can move around and do some different things in the offense.

I’d take Egbuka. He’s problem free and his pedigree from that school is clean/great, and his upside is awesome, too. He’d be a great complement to both Rice and Worthy, too.

Rice: intermediate, short, YAC
Worthy: deep, intermediate, stretch horizontally and vertically
Egbuka: intermediate, short, deep, YAC, stretch horizontally and vertically.

I mean, that’s pretty much exactly what you want from WRs 1-3 in an Andy Reid offense, isn’t it?

But then … watch this

Thanks! I thought it was a tough decision as well hence my asking your opinion. They are both very good :thumb:

They’re not taking burden with all the issues they’ve have with WRs off field I doubt

Burden has no off the field issues….

His off-field issues are pretty much bullshit.

“His girlfriend and mom are involved!” OK, whatever.

“He doesn’t practice hard!” He didn’t need to.

“He’s high-maintenance!” I mean, he’s a legit WR, brah. Which ones are not?

“He said quit against Alabama!” Did you watch the quality of play from Drew Pyne in that game? You wouldn’t try, either.

“He got his ass licked his entire career to stay!” Tell me you hate NIL and player agency without telling me you hate NIL and player agency.

Well...they have one WR who may miss some time this year due to suspension so I'm just not sure they're willing to get into that whole thing.

Maybe I'm off though.

Luther Burden literally had nothing off the field and all this originated from an anonymous source….

People are reaching to find something that just isn’t there.

I'm not necessarily advocating for Burden, as I think the Chiefs have other issues that need addressed at 31, but in the 2024 Draft he's a surefire Top 15 pick and likely Top 10, as I bet the Bears take him at #9 instead of Odunze.

And nothing about him changed between that draft and this draft, other than shit QB play this season at Mizzou.

Just sayin . . . . .

But history has shown, even guys with shit Qb play go early if they're worth that.

- Jihaad Campbell, LB, Alabama
- Grey Zabel, OL, NDSU

My guesses.

I love Jihaad, but wouldn't we have to trade up pretty significantly to get him? Like to the top 15?

I would be pretty surprised if they took a WR round 1
