He also has a two year old daughter and takes his role as a dad pretty seriously. Just a small thing, but he'll be motivated to be great.
I don't know if I like him for us if there are other options on the board, but I think we could do a lot worst than him at the end of the first and would want him for us more than Worthy.

I hope a team takes him ahead of us, or maybe McConkey, so that one of the more desireable WR targets falls to us. I think it's just a product of him being lost in the shuffle of a really exceptional WR class this year, he just doesn't stand out.
Amongst the tall WRs in this draft...Thomas is a better deep threat, Franklin's more dynamic, Coleman has the better Alpha mentality, Legette's more athletic, Worthy's faster, McConkey's the best route runner, Rice Jr has better pedigree, and J Wilson is taller than all of them... poor kid. Best of luck to him!
Going to be a really really interesting combine!
...I'll say this, Mitchell and Worthy both have one thing in their favor, they live down in TX where apparently Mahomes likes to work out in the offseason so they might get invited to an early try out same as Rice last year.
