Why do you think some actual NFL scouts and GM types like Adonai better than Worthy? They aren't seeing the game film correctly? |

Why did the Chargers take Johnston over Flowers? It made no sense at the time and it fleshed out exactly as i thought it would. /Shrug Some scouts think like you, some scouts think like me. |

You also said you don't highly value route running in draft prospects or think it can be taught in the NFL so we will like different players at WR. |

Former scout Daniel Jeremiah WR rankings not too different than what I posted a long time ago.
25. Adonai Mitchell 34. Ladd McConkkey 41. Xavier Worthy https://www.nfl.com/news/daniel-jere...t-rankings-3-0 |

Brian Thomas Jr, Malik Naber, Marvin Harrison Jr., Odunze...they check all the boxes imo in terms of wow factor. Size, speed, contested catch ability, knack for making high degree of difficulty catches....those guys are the full package imo. Worthy and Leggette both pop out to me with some "Wow" ability. Not full package players, but guys with traits that will make them a handful; that a team can build on. Im leaving others out im sure but...you get the idea. |

It's your blatant hyperbole, that I don't think you honestly believe. Saying Mitchell is a better route runner is a "different opinion". Saying Sanders is a better route runner is just nonsense. If you honestly believe that, it says a lot about your football knowledge. I'm actually trying to give you the benefit of the doubt here. |

It turns out it is precisely the opposite of that, hence why everybody was surprised/disappointed by his 40. |

I mentioned over and over and over that he was a long strider and took a while to get to to top speed on tape and you dismissed it as crazy. The combine confirmed I was right. |

Your original argument was 100% that he didn't play as fast as he timed. |

Yes, I nailed it.
It starts with how he leaves the LOS. After he has a + release, you keep waiting for him to do something good...and you just keep waiting. So that would be a much taller but skinny Skyy Moore with at least the positive of speed. What does that speed do? Does not play as fast as you would like. Will not separate against better corners. Would be a solid replacement for the MVS role in our offense which is decoy/ and cover 2 attacker who can find big windows with a better awareness than MVS but still not exciting enough for me. Would rate him below Zay Flowers, Addison, and Rashee Rice from last year. And after this post where you said I was nuts I clarified exactly what that meant by how he was a long strider that took a while to reach top speed. The combine showed that when you got stuck on 1 metric. |

Maybe double down and take Corley in the 2nd and ask him to play 1/2 McKinnon's HB role + 1/2 slot. Last edited by Couch-Potato; 04-02-2024 at 05:10 PM.. |

Here's my response:

His GPS speed tracking during an actual game turned out to be far more impressive than his 40. Like I said, it's the exact opposite. He plays faster than he times. This is indisputable at this point, but of course you will continue to argue otherwise, or deflect from the actual point I was originally trying to make. |
