Logic Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Contrary to popular belief, I feel that Marquise "Hollywood" Brown will be the first WR off the board. Players with his speed and explosiveness always tend to go earlier than analysts predict. I also don't believe the scuttlebutt that he's just a slot WR. I see him as another DeSean Jackson, with the ability to singlehandedly change on offense. Tyreek Hill lite. Not only do I think Brown will be the first WR of the board, I'd also be thrilled if the Bills take him at 9. I realize they desperately need O-linemen and tight ends, but a player like Brown can really change an offense, as I said. With Brown on one side and Foster on the other, the Bills would be taking full advantage of Allen's arm strength, and defenses would have a HELL of a time stopping that much deep speed. Thoughts? 1
whatdrought Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I don’t think Brown going first goes against popular belief... I’ve seen many mocks with him as the first reciever.

I’ve seen many mocks with him as the first reciever. Fair enough. I seem to see a lot of DK Metcalf, and even Kelvin Harmon lately. I also see Marquise Brown going in the 2nd round in a lot of mocks, which is just bananas.

It's an obvious one but there's logic to it. Going to blast away the Combine, he'll really show off in the route running drills. 3 1

FeelingOnYouboty Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I'll go with D.K. Metcalf but if John Ross can be a Top 10 pick I think Marquise Brown can go Top 15. 1

I read something yesterday that said Metcalf only ran three different routes in college. Is that true?

He was severely limited by the scheme that he played in, that much is true. He did predominently just run verts, slants, crossers but I think he's far more savvy than the limits placed upon him. Guys that can separate like he does on his in-breaking routes tend to have the natural gift for route running. It might take some time for the skill to fully develop but I like his chances. 1 1
Putin Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I think at this point Metcalf or N’Keal Harry Makes more sense then Brown since we already have R Foster to take the top of the defense , 1

He is the guy I want most but I’d be ok with Butler as well.
Logic Posted February 6, 2019 Author Posted February 6, 2019 I like Metcalf a lot. However, I can't shake the feeling that with the rules as they are now in the NFL, and with the offense Daboll likes to run, that speed/quickness WRs who can gain almost instant separation are the best weapons an offense can have. Tyreek Hill, for instance, was basically uncoverable this year. Add in having a quarterback with the arm strength that Josh Allen has, and a dominant deep threat becomes even MORE of an asset. Furthermore, Josh seemed to have better chemistry and success with WRs whose main asset was speed.
Juice_32 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I'm going to go with Harmon from NC State. I think he will crush the combine and rise up the board. He is just solid all the way around. 1
Johnny Hammersticks Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I would put my $ on Metcalf. Physical freak unlike any other in this draft. Watching his highlights, he reminds me a great deal of Randy Moss. 2
Mark80 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I've been on the Hollywood train since I watched him vs. Texas. With today's game and how you can hardly touch a WR off the line, I think he projects well to be a successful, high draft pick in the league. If we could trade down to the mid/late teens, I would highly consider him if he's there.

The only thing with that is if the QB is running for his life because of a porous O line then all that speed means nothing as we saw this year because Allen will be running it himself . It all starts in the trenches O line i hope will be the top priority in this years draft ! What i don't understand is how with all the mocks coming out now they have the Bills taking defensive guys with the first pick ?
PetermansRedemption Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Metcalf or Harry for me. And if it is the Bills I would be thrilled with either one.
