Reed83HOF Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I didn't read the word "chase" at first and my mind hopped to this guy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeastMaster Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 This kid did enough to make himself a first rounder yesterday. Not saying he'd be a great pick at 22, but If the Bills like him he's not gonna be there come round two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that is very important but you need to think of your wrs as a basketball team. We already have The small quick guard types. We need a power forward and center type opposite them. And they should add another guy as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My gut says he isn’t going to be a stud. Ceiling for him is Vic Beasley. Claypool is so intriguing! Trust Beanes analysis and value. Measurable make you think he is a top ten pick.

YoloinOhio Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 If you take Claypool, do you play him at WR or in a move TE role like an Evan Engram? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorin' Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 I still prefer Pittman as the big wr target. Claypool looked akward catching passes in the gauntlet drill. Pittman reminds me of Mike Evans. Just watched Denzel Mim's highlights, it looked like a video game of Madden. This guy is a freak of nature with solid production.

He didn't buy into immediately and was one of Kellys doghouse guys early on. The size and speed was seen immediately in spring camp. He wasnt given significant playing time until junior year where he was still just the number 2 behind Boykin, but still put up decent numbers. This last season he was the true number one and took on that leadership role everyone was waiting all this time for. He got better and better every season and even every game Senior year. I think if he had eligibility to play another season he would put up ridiculous numbers like 1500+yards and 15+TDs. He completely owned in the Camping World Bowl. Hes a guy that is going to benefit from NFL coaching and is going to get even better. 6'4 with a 40" verticle, and this guy catches everything. I said way back he was going to put up great combine numbers and kill our chances of getting later rounds. Will prob have to spend a 2nd on him to get now. Mike Evans with a little more speed and wiggle, sign me up please! Thanks for putting this so well. As a fellow Irish fan, I totally agree with this assessment. He's an ascending prospect, got better every year...this is one criteria that Beane stresses. Chase also is a developing leader. I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills have a number like pick 42 or so, that if they don't go WR in Rd. 1, that Beane will go get Chase if he gets to that pick.

I still think he will be available in the late 2nd. ideal scenario is a couple guys like that in the late 2nd available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As hard as it is to do, he's smart enough to learn both outside receiver and tight end. He's really good outside on contested catches and using leverage to get separation. On blocking, he's skilled on the outside seal and can pancake CBs. I think his blocking skills because of his size and leverage will translate to in-line blocking. What McD will also love is that Chase was ND's best special teams player...particularly in coverage.. He was great. Highlight reel stuff..

MAJBobby Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 15 hours ago, NewEra said: So this is where you do it. 6’4 238 32.5 arms 9 7/8 hands 80 wingspan 4.42 40 40.5 vert 126 broad jump 19 bench reps Do you want him at 22? If so, play him all over or mostly at WR or TE? Which position would be more dominant or have a better chance to make the HoF? He went from a possible target in rd 2 to if we want him, we have to snag him at 22, if he’s even there. Did that happen today? I was really impressed, although his gauntlet still just looked ok He’d be such a great fit with JA imo. he ran faster than I thought he would. Because I don’t see that speed when he was on the field in college. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MAJBobby Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Mims is going to be the never talked about in the first round that I truly believe since the Senior Bowl he has made the Most Money. before Senior bowl saw most people having him as a Day 3 pick. After Senior Bowl most had him in 2nd. After his workout don’t be surprised if he is taken in the first. He has made himself ALOT of money during this process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warrior9 Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 3 hours ago, wppete said: Really impressive size and numbers at the combine but he didn’t look very smooth running routes. Not great hands, double catches a lot. I like Antonio Gandy-Golden from Liberty. He is also 6’4 and 10 lbs lighter but a much smother athlete with very soft hands and can be had in the 3rd or 4th round. AGG did not look smooth at all in the routes either, to be fair. 9 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Mims is going to be the never talked about in the first round that I truly believe since the Senior Bowl he has made the Most Money. before Senior bowl saw most people having him as a Day 3 pick.

I don't get why people have stopped talking about him. I still think Jefferson is 1st round pick. Mims' 40 yesterday was extremely impressive too. I didn't realize he can move like that.

PIZ Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 2 hours ago, C.Biscuit97 said: But Claypool isn’t a fat woman. This is my main crush at receiver this year. He is constantly improving. Plus, he’s gone through a lot and has been a model student athlete. https://strongofheart.nd.edu/profiles/chase-claypool-2017/ since the Bills never get players I want, I assume we won’t get him. But as someone who’s only Jersey Is andre reed, I will buy a Claypool Jersey. That’s a solid $50 Bills. Make it happen. Well, if you want him, let me know. The last 2 years I wanted Ed Oliver and Josh Allen. I haven't zeroed on one yet for this year's draft. So far, I am thinking a trade up for Ruggs or maybe a slight trade up (if needed to get ahead of Philly) for Claypool. However, if a top OT or DE starts dropping, that would sway my opinion.

Jefferson has always been talked about as a 1st/2nd guy. IMO so he checked the boxes he needed to stay there. I also really think Lamb is going to be the 1st WR taken Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ngbills Posted February 28, 2020 Share Posted February 28, 2020 Combine may give a guy some hype but folks still fall back on the tape and what they see on the field. Claypool is clearly a good athlete but that is not the only factor. As others have said - DK Metcalf after running a 4.33 was instantly going to be a top 10 pick... https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/nfl-combine-d-k-metcalf-blazes-path-to-top-10-of-draft-and-how-wr-te-qb-workouts-affect-first-round/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
