Who knows what a reach is really? A lot of people here were mocking antonio johnson in the first round and he’s still there. So none of us have any idea what teams boards look like. I thought he’d go later based on what the reports were saying, but the reports were wrong I guess. 

With technology, we all now have access to watch just about any draft prospect. But we don't have access to those team interviews. I think that's where a lot of the rising and falling comes from.

He likely won’t make the 53. But could a position switch be in the cards???  There could be ability with a year on PS to transition into a pass catching Flex TE. 

[Coach Tuesday]

At least he’s high upside and a scheme fit.  Ceiling is Tee Higgins, but needs to get much faster jump off the snap.

[JerseyBills]

And Chad Hall is a great WR coach. Lots of upside

With both Davis and Shorter Josh is going to have to stand in the pocket for 5 seconds

Shorter is our defensive Hail Mary specialist. Huge and a great jumper. Don't need speed for that job. Although it is an oddly specific assignment

I’ll be rooting for him to make the 53 and be a red zone target

we have the strangest collection of non-prototype size and measureables of WRs in the NFL.

He looks huge in the highlights.  

 

I mean, why not?  It's the 5th round.  Seems to have all of the physical attributes a WR needs.  Maybe some good coaching will unleash some potential here.

 

 

At the very least we can have an amazing hands team in the red zone, with height and strength.

 

It's a 5th round pick, hopefully he's a star, but if he contributes anything it's a success.

I don't understand the drops.  According to the above, he dropped only one time on 114 targets over the last two years.

He’s a reach. Has a history though of dropping balls. Time will tell.

Send him to Dawson Knox's "hands coach" and that problem is fixed.

Was just going to say the same thing after watching his video.

Gabe is better than this dude. Shorter seems to catch a lot of balls with his body.

Chad Hall is no longer with us.  Not meaning he’s dead, he’s with another team.

This is the first pick I haven't really liked but it's fine after the trade down. I'm always a fan of shooting for huge upside in the 5th round or later. The roster doesn't have a ton of holes but i would have liked a defender
