gonzo1105 Posted January 19 Posted January 19 I’m an FSU guy and glad we had Coleman but I feel he’s being overrated. He doesn’t really separate from DBs in College and he dropped a good amount of 50/50 balls for being a bigger WR. He is def talented but in this very deep WR class I could see him dropping to mid 2nd round area. 1 Quote

Having said that, his contested catch % is pretty poor so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a case where passes aren’t being categorized as drops due to how contested they are. Quote

Who knows… He is very fast, but super skinny. He needs to add 10 pounds to reach under-weight status.

Would bring us back some of the John Brown/Emmanuel Sanders field stretching. Looks like he has some quality sauce on punt returns too, could add that plus the bring back the jet sweep element to the offense. Only 20 years old too, that bodes really well for receivers. Why does he seem to be late first sometimes early second in most mocks? Hands issues? Limited route tree? Or just his slighter frame in a class stacked with height/weight/speed freaks? He only weighs about 165. That’s the concern. Quote

I think the guys who could blow up the combine: Legette, Thomas and Franklin are gonna overtake him. I still wouldn't be opposed to the Bills picking him but I think he is more a guy you take if you have trade back outta the first.... or maybe with the 32nd pick I can't remember a draft where you might have 7 legit outside receivers with #1 receiver type potential in the top 40 or so on the board. It is like the opposite of last year where everyone was a slot or a gadget or a move receiver. Nabers is a move guy but the rest of the top of this group are true outside the numbers, vertical, traditional #1 types. Quote

It’s getting to be draft prospect discussion time - I love reading your takes on the prospects! Thanks in advance! 1 Quote

We would have been happy to put off such discussions, but I was satisfied that the team dug out of the hole at 6-6 and won a playoff game. I think key injuries on the D really gave them less than their best chance against KC and no team can control injuries. I thought they did a commendable job staying the course with those injuries. 1 Quote

Bills need two receivers from the draft imho. And one of them must be a day one starter to replace Davis and or usurp Diggs over time (soon). Choose well McBeanes. this is critical to move the team forward ! 1 Quote
