I was high on Mitchell and Legette until i started watching plays where they didn't get the ball/their number wasn't called. Legette especially had some reeeaallly low effort plays, but Mitchell was up there too. That "laziness" scares me. I don't know how you fix that. It's like catching. Either you know how to catch the ball by now or you don't. Either you know how to buckle down and work hard or you don't. Giving them millions of dollars isn't going to motivate them to suddenly put in 100% effort. I think we see a lot of busts from this WR draft between Rds 1 and 2 if teams aren't looking at this and just drafting off combine numbers or potential. I think some Rd 3 and later guys like Burton and Cowing, and McCaffrey have a better shot to ball out than guys like Worthy who is MVS lite IMHO.

I think this is a Texas thing. I wonder if they are coaching it? The offense is so gimmicky - its built on half field reads so only half the field even matters. If the read is on your side, I think they are supposed to wear out the corners by taking those boys down the field over and over again. Meanwhile, on the other side of the ball, the receivers are jogging half-assed routes. It's weird - but universal to the Texas players.

In their defense I would admit that WR runs a lot of routes during the game, I doubt I could run a full sprint 40 right now without throwing up lol

Mod socks and I talked about it several pages back. ADs tape on plays where he doesn’t get the ball is so bad. It almost has to be coaching.

Worthy, franklin and legette are rated way too low, respectively.

Depends who you ask.

The analytics guys on Twitter love Worthy and Franklin but Jeremiah was an actual NFL scout and Brugler is one of the top amateurs and their rankings are pretty much what I laid out a while ago.

Yeah, if Franklin is sitting there at the end of the second round, they'd have to take him regardless of if they took a receiver in the first round. No way does he last that long.

Jeremiah has Worthy at 35 and Franklin at 41st overall. Not really comparable to where Brugler has them.

And this idea that it's just analytics guys that like Worthy and Franklin is nothing more than a narrative.

I was told that placing Franklin in the 2nd was crazy by CP.

That’s hogwash. Plenty of guys have that competitive edge and stay out of trouble.

Post a single person that said you putting him in the 2nd specifically is "crazy".

I'll wait...

"Neither is a clear round 1 player"

Yea, basically anybody you take at 32 won't be you butt****ing moron.

You realize there are significantly less than 32 1st round grades in every draft, correct?

I'm not going to waste my time searching posts but that is exactly how I was treated for stating I thought Worthy and Franklin were 2nd rounders.

You are revising history.

The big question we should be asking ourselves is how much disparity is there between the late 1st rd WR’s like McConkey, Franklin and Worthy and guys like Tez Walker?

Bc Tez Walker is a guy with high upside that was a weapon in college and could be really high potential here. He’s not my favorite but he’s undoubtedly a high ceiling player who could win the way DK Metcalf does downfield.

And for the life of me I don’t get the 3rd rd grade for Jalen McMillan. That guy is ****ing good. He’s a football player who knows how to get open. He knows how to vary routes and he knows how to find the open space.

Don’t care that he ran a 4.47. Tank Dell ran a 4.49 and had the same skills and the guy was amazing last year.
