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.

I like McMillan but see him as a possible future starter like Marvin Jones. That's a nice find but I want more upside with a 1st or 2nd round pick.

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?

Pretty sure MHJ, Nabers and Odunze are the only unanimous WR’s with first rd grades. I’d say probably half or more of teams have BTJ as a first rd prospect and maybe a handful of teams grade Mitchell as a 1st rd talent.

There’s usually 15-18 players in a draft with first rd grades so the odds aren’t high more than 4 WR’s are graded that high.

Exactly, so considering nobody has ever thought Worthy and Franklin are out of our range, nobody would say it's "crazy" to give them a 2nd round grade.

You argued with me over and over and over when I said I thought they were 2nd round prospects.

You were really worked up.

There is no way that half the teams have BTJ as a 2nd round prospect.

Your contention that only a few teams have Adonai as a 1st rounder is based on what exactly?

Show me where I was arguing specifically against a 2nd round grade or

[QUOTE=staylor26;17424164]Wow, very bold of you Captain Hindsight.

Rice would easily be a 1st in a redraft, and Reed would be a high 2nd. So you mean to tell me you'll take the proven commodity over the mystery box at 32? Shocker!

Exactly what ****ing point do you think you're making here reerun?[/QUOTE]



Look at how mad he got when I mentioned that the guys being promoted for a 1st round pick for the Chiefs were not as good as guys that went in the 2nd last year.

You two argue like you are gay lovers fighting over who tops whom tonight.

I would prefer to just talk draft but some people get way too invested into players where if you criticize their guy they take it personally.

No, you just don't know how to quote a post correctly so I was trying to fix it in an edit before finishing my post. You had your chance to show me where I, or anybody else, argued against Franklin having a 2nd round grade, and all you found was me telling you were making an irrelevant point playing Captain Hindsight.

Thanks for proving for the millionth time that you're a ****ing liar. Not a single person told you you were "crazy" for having Franklin in the 2nd round.

I've been here since 2007 and never once put somebody on ignore. You're about to be the first.

The note on McCaffery is interesting. They’d have him 8th save for his rating by SCOUTS inc. Worthy would rank ahead of Mitchell if not for SCOUTS, too.
