BillsFanForever19 Posted March 2 Posted March 2 2 hours ago, bills6969 said: Coleman is definitely a sleeper pick. He’s being a bit overlooked due to being a “go up and get it” receiver. He was one of the better WRs in the country last year and could end up being one of the top WR in the draft when it’s all said and done. Coleman is only slept on in this thread and on this board. He's almost always the 5th Ranked WR by media prognosticators. If you watch the Combine, NFL Network has him as the 4th - above Brian Thomas Jr. Quote
HappyDays Posted March 2 Posted March 2 15 minutes ago, FireChans said: Coleman may be a great player. I think he’s a nice prospect. But he isn’t going to demand teams get out of man coverage. I feel the exact opposite. Zone coverage is where I think he could struggle at first, but we have other zone beaters on the roster. I want a WR that can win in 1v1 coverage because as of right now we don't have that player on the roster (unless Diggs returns to form). Coleman is physically dominant at the catch point and wins on vertical routes. That is a great skill set against 1v1 coverage. He can also eat defenses alive on quick slants if they want to live in man. In the red zone he is an automatic mismatch in man. I still have Troy Franklin as my #1 realistic option for the Bills because I agree quick separation and speed at all levels of the field is the most valuable skill set a WR can have. If he's gone however I don't see another realistically available WR that has that skill set. So of the other available skill sets Coleman's intrigues me the most and I think it would be the best fit with Josh Allen. Also his ceiling is sky high, even higher than Franklin's IMO. 1 Quote

I think the Mike Williams contested-catch type is not the type to bank on, personally. Give me a guy that demands safety rotations. That can turn the corner on jet sweeps and dump offs and WR screens, and can take it 50 yards if the rest of the defense has their back turned to them. A serious RAC weapon is going to transform the offense and turn the rest of the offense into pitch and catch. 1 Quote
HappyDays Posted March 2 Posted March 2 WRs are running their 40s now. Finally. We can now throw out all of the film evaluation and simply rank WRs by their 40 time. 1 3 1 Quote

I'll blow a gasket if the Chiefs trade up ahead of us and grab him. with Cosell being so high on him, his production in big games, now the speed, only 21 years old, 39.5 vertical, 11.4 broad perhaps he’s #1 on our list (among realistic targets) 1 1 Quote

So far, Mitchell and Coleman were 2 of them and one increased money and the other lost money. Quote

If they trade Sneed they'll have more than enough ammo to do so if they please 1 Quote
D. L. Hot-Flamethrower Posted March 2 Posted March 2 You guys can have Coleman at 4.64. Not the guy we need with our first pick. Mitchell, Franklin could be though. 2 Quote

I'm in the Combine thread reading things like "Coleman's now a 3rd Rounder" and "Mitchell is now clearly WR4 or WR5". It's important. But it's not EVERYTHING. Quote

I agree it's not everything, but Mitchell has excellent traits. The knock on him was speed, though I always felt he was faster than folks gave him credit for. Quote
