It’s vomit worthy, but also comforting at the same time. This means that we haven’t seen peak Allen yet, which is amazing to think about.

I just want to win a super bowl. It appears like we’ve taken a step back and it’s concerning.

Honestly, if we walk away from this draft with less than 2 WR and 3 O-linemen, I will be very disappointed. And Hodgins looked great playing for the Giants. Honestly makes me wonder.

The fact that Teller and Hodgins went on to have respectable roles is pretty telling. At some point, someone will be on the hot seat.

Image if we had a couple of all pro linemen how much Allen would destroy the league.

If we ever lost Diggs for any amount of time, we would be in major trouble. This fact alone is concerning. We need a 1B. Not a 2, because we have to be able to beat the Bengals. We need another star WR opposite of Diggs that can do damage. Let Gabe be the #3 and roll with it. Diggs Hyatt/Rice Davis Shakir Knox Is a very dangerous team. Then focus on the oline to keep Allen protected.

Teller? Hodgins?

I’m going Hyatt with #27 and Rice with the 2nd pick. If he’s not available, then take Avila who is one of the best pass blockers in the draft.

I would draft Hyatt and then Rice with the 2nd pick. That would give Allen with 2 new WRs that run under 4.4 . Rounds 3, 4, 5, 5 get fully dedicated to Oline.

Right now I’m banging the drums for Hyatt and Rice. I would love to double dip back to back. Both great WRs with sub 4.4 speed.

I know, just impatient. To bad he is slower than his dad, because he sure can run the entire route tree.

Who is on your list of round 1-2 WRs that you want to see targeted?

You shouldn’t be afraid. Hyatt with his 1,000 yards+ production and speed (sub 4.4) in the SEC puts him in rare company. Only SEC receivers to do that are Jameson Williams, Elijah Moore, Ja’Marr Chase, Odell Beckham Jr. , and Julio Jones.

I listed all the SEC WRs that have speed plus production. Hyatt is in great company. Given where Jalin Hyatt type players went in the draft, if he is there at #27 , he should be the pick. I listed all SEC players with production plus sub 4.4 40 times and Hyatt joins the list of great WRs.

Sutton is SMU, which I already said gets a pass. Those other guys are like a rare handful out of a sea of hundreds. If Marvin Harrison Jr. even received 75% of the skill of his father, it would be worth the draft pick.

AT Perry is the closest at 6’5” 205lbs and runs a 4.48 . But he plays for Wake Forest which is a huge negative NFL predictor of success. How are we going to afford him?

Not since 2010. Which is really all that is relevant given the modernity of the NFL now. Generally receivers that played in power university that ran a sub 4.4 and put up production (1,000 yards+) went on to have good NFL careers. There is no freak WR with speed in this years draft. Not one with college production in a major university.

Based on my statistical analysis, Jalin Hyatt, Rashee Rice, Quentin Johnston, and the OSU WRs are the safest and most likely WRs to be successful in the NFL.

Who remember Chris Givens? He was a Wake Forest product, ran a 4.41 and had 1,350 yards of production. Was drafted in the 4th round. It’s another reason why I’m hesitant to pull the trigger on AT Perry. It’s just not worth the risk and waste of draft pick. Same with the NC state and NC WRs. Just not worth it. Gabe came from UCF. The statistics are not in his favor. It’s less than a 10% rate that a non traditional conference powerhouse team yields a NFL star WR.

I mean when was the last time a WR from Wisconsin did anything? There are just some teams you stay away from when it comes to WRs. If they aren’t running sub 4.4s and play for a power conference and team that is traditionally good, I usually will not advocate to draft you.

There area handful of teams within the power conferences that I stay away from generally as well for WRs. BC is on that list. Nothing good comes from teams like NC State, Duke, NC, BC, Vandy, ILL, NW, Indiana, Purdue, Louisville, WV, Kansas, Kstate, Baylor, Stanford, Nebraska, Colorado, etc. I have yet to see WRs pan out from these locations

If you are a wide receiver, and if you aren’t coming from the SEC, Pac 10, Big 12, ACC, or Big 10 I’m 9/10 going to overlook you unless you are coming from either SMU, CMU, or BSU. That’s just a general rule I have, and it tends to yield very good predictor for NFL success, especially if it is combined with sub 4.45 speed and 1,000 yard+ production. If you can check the box of 2/3 of those things, you get a glance.

I’m very hesitant to draft or even sign UDFA WRs outside of the power conferences, there are just wayyyy to many busts. Zay Jones Calvin Austin Andy Isabella Antonio Gandy-Golden Tutu Atwell Anthony Miller Anthony Johnson Roger Lewis Taywan Taylor Justin Hardy Stedman Bailey Tavon Austin Greg Salas About the only really good WR to come out of a non power conference that put up good numbers in college was Davante Adams. Toney at least came from Florida which is obviously SEC. WanDale (yet to be determined) came from Kentucky which is obviously SEC.

Here are a list of WRs that ran a sub 4.40 and had over 1,000 yards of production that played in the SEC going back to 2010. Jalin Hyatt 1,267 yards 18.9 yard/rec Projected low 4.3s 6’0” 185lbs ? Jameson Williams 1,572 yards 19.9 yards/rec 4.25 6’2” 189lbs 1st round #12 Elijah Moore 1,193 yards 13.9 yard/rec 4.35 5’10” 179lbs 2nd round #34 Ja’Marr Chase 1,780 yards 21.2 yard/rec 4.38 6’0” 201lbs 1st round #5 Odell Beckham Jr. 1,152 yards 19.5 yard/rec 4.31 5’11” 198lbs 1st round #12 Julio Jones 1,133 yards 14.5 yard/rec 4.39 6’3” 220lbs 1st round #6 If we get Jalin Hyatt at #27 I would consider that a steal all things considering.

Sanders went in the 3rd round that year. So based on size and speed advantages, it’s possible Rice goes in the 2nd round.
