He came in as a QB at Illinois and converted to WR. He sees the field well and he's quick and shifty. I like him a bunch. Would consider him in the 4th if the chips fall right in the offseason.

Don't have a WR board yet but Keon Coleman gives me some Michael Pittman vibes who I also liked in this range when he came out.

There's a video of Troy Franklin on twitter saying "he's a Chiefs fan" and apparently he's supported the Chiefs from when he was a kid.
I must admit that makes him even more intriguing in this draft. You can never go wrong having home town guys on your roster. Wearing the jersey just means more to those cats than your average guy. |

I want Franklin/Leggette/Worthy. Just some guys who can catch a long ball and have some dirty, nasty, filthy speed. We all saw what Andy can do when he has a Desean Jackson or Tyreek Hill on his team. Open this offense back up.

I hope this actually deters the Bills by just enough to let him fall to us. Last edited by Couch-Potato; 02-14-2024 at 11:03 AM.. |

He's big (6-4/200) but more fluid than most guys that size. Flashes crisp route-running. While he doesn't have game-breaking deep speed, he eats up a lot of ground and flashes the ability to stack DBs. Big, strong hands. Demonstrated ability to high-point the ball. Has come up big for his teams in biggest games. Cons: Not twitchy/quick Not huge college production (could argue that is driven by the environments he was in) |

He's big and kinda fast, but not overly physical and not really a true deep threat. I mean for some reason Mohamed Massaquoi comes to mind but I just don't see a lot of guys like Mitchell having a ton of success. They have to be smaller, faster or more explosive. He doesn't have Evans ability to high point or Allen's route-running. Marques Colston was much more physical. I mean he feels more like Josh Palmer than a 1st rounder. I just don't think I'm gonna come around on him. |

I also read he lead the FBS in firstdown + touchdown rate with over 81% of his catches moving the chains or scoring a TD. He also has a two year old daughter and takes his role as a dad pretty seriously. Just a small thing, but he'll be motivated to be great. I don't know if I like him for us if there are other options on the board, but I think we could do a lot worst than him at the end of the first and would want him for us more than Worthy. |

Amongst the tall WRs in this draft...Thomas is a better deep threat, Franklin's more dynamic, Coleman has the better Alpha mentality, Legette's more athletic, Worthy's faster, McConkey's the best route runner, Rice Jr has better pedigree, and J Wilson is taller than all of them... poor kid. Best of luck to him! Going to be a really really interesting combine! ...I'll say this, Mitchell and Worthy both have one thing in their favor, they live down in TX where apparently Mahomes likes to work out in the offseason so they might get invited to an early try out same as Rice last year.

PFF has 20 WRs in their Top 100, I'm starting to believe there will be some solid options in the 3rd. Hate to say it, but most of all I'm starting to wonder if we don't wait again until the 2nd and make a small move up then. We take DL and OL in the 1st, typically, and protecting Mahomes is more important than giving him weapons. The 2nd is Veach's sweat spot for WR, and this year's value will be better than ever.
Here are a few scenarios I could imagine by draft day: -Franklin's 10% drop rate comes under focus and he falls into top to mid 2nd -Legette falls to the mid to low 2nd just like DK Metcalf -Worthy falls to the mid to low 2nd just like Hyatt the previous year -Walker, Burton, & Polk are all pushed down the board to the bottom of the 2nd due to the above WRs falling -R. Wilson, J. Wilson, Corley, & Rice Jr get pushed down to the 3rd -Thrash, Smith, Washington are available in the 4th or 5th Last edited by Couch-Potato; 02-14-2024 at 01:43 PM.. |
