RD 5, Pick 150: WR Justin Shorter, Florida

[Fallser]

He's a big boy - I like it. He's the NEW Megatron!

[appoo]

His upside is fantastic, but my guess is he’s on the practice squad his first year

Who is he active over?

 

Diggs

Davis

Hardy

Shakir

Sherfield

Well Harty will get hurt. So there’s that.

He’s our new Duke Williams. 

He does remind me of Duke

[Magox]

His size, weight and speed combination along with really big wingspan makes him intriguing for sure.

 

Plus I read that he has gunner experience.   I think there is a good chance he makes the roster.

Yeah. Agility is the main rub in this guys case. Wonder if he will ever be a decent route runner. No suddenness or change of tempo. Ok I guess for a fifth round need selection. He's headed to the PS imo.

 

His pros and cons kind of read like a poor mans DK Metcalf when he was coming out...which is fine by me for a 5th round pick.

Damn, he looks a lot like O'Cyrus.  😛

Yeah the live thing got screwed up and they went into the press conference for Torrence but it's fixed now.

As a Florida fan he was very frustrating to watch

 

dropped a-lot of balls 

Gabe Davis 2.0 then I guess.

[Motorin']

Don't love the pick. Don't hate it.

 

Would have preferred Xavier Hutchinson, AT Perry, Isovias or Trey Palmer.

A 5.5% drop rate would suggest otherwise.

 

By comparison our #2 receiver had a drop rate of 8.7% this past season.

Plus a tight end and running back that could sit in the WR room. We could go 5 active and extra practice squad presence at the position 

Dalton for sure will probably be in the WR room because of his versatility.  Still think Hines is better suited as just a RB and returner.

[khlax3]

Kincaid, Knox, shorter all 6’ 4

Davis 6’ 2

 

Plenty of speed as  well with cook, Hines Harty and sherfield

 

oh and one of the best wr in nfl with diggs 

 

no matter what d we play we will have the players to counter it

[Goin Breakdown]

From watching YouTube, er...I mean film from my couch. I feel with my limited knowledge and regurgitation of others, that this is a reach. Bad move Beane. Bills just don't want to win.

My theme leading up to the draft and efforts to prognasticate the draft, have revolved around the concept that the Bills weakest spot on offense is in the red zone.  ESPN is on top of depth charts.  Will the Bills start 6 WRs?

Harris over Cook? Na

[Success]

Love the "high ceiling" scouting stuff on late round picks.  

 

And I think BPA is really something for the 1st 2 rounds.  After that, I have no issue drafting for need, and sometimes reaching for need (if needed).

He’d be poached
