Quote:Coates from a physical standpoint shouldn't have a problem with bullying most CB 's off the line. That guy is a specimen.
 

I agree.  From a physical standpoint he is more than capable.  I just have to see him do it.  Its more about technique than size in the NFL though, because if the corner bumps you off just by being offbalance for just one step the timing is going to be off on the route.

Devin Funchess is as fast as he's going to be with 2 4.70's. Not too bad for a guy his size.

Funchess definitely a TE.  He just doesn't stride like a receiver, 40 time aside.

DGB is an absolute monster, that guy is going to beast CB 's in the NFL, too big and too athletic. Defenses will have to roll coverage his way because he's fast enough to blow the cover off, I see more AJ Green than Megatron but DGB is thicker than Green, he's going in the 1st round and is by far the beat receiver prospect in this draft.

Yeah, its pretty close between Amari and Dorial.  He's very much in the mold of Vincent Jackson and Mike Evans.  Rare guys with the size of TEs and the speed and skills of a receiver.

Nelson Agholor is really helping his cause with his effort today.

Yea he's ticketed for the 1st round, wouldn't be surprised if he went as high as 11 to the Vikings. Randy Moss had character questions coming out of Marshall and we know how that pick worked out, if he's available when we're up in the 2nd round it'd be tough to pass on him, unlimited upside.

I know its not a popular thought, but I wouldn't mind drafting him as a tight end.  He can still contribute as a pass catcher while developing as a tight end and putting on 10 or 15 pounds.

Yea I don't like that idea but I understand the line of thinking, he's athletic enough to consistently win on the perimeter against smallish defensive backs, if his heads on right he'll be a superstar receiver at the next level.

Amari Cooper is so good.  He's a natural at the WR position, he makes it all look easy.

One word to describe Amari and that's "smooth", he makes it look so easy. His face was expressionless when he ran that 4.4, he's a stud.

People have been knocking Amari's athleticism a little recently, but all his numbers are very similar to Sammy Watkins.  The difference being that at Clemson the offense was designed to show off Sammy's athleticism in open field with tons of screens and 9s, much like iso basketball.  At Alabama, Sammy ran pro style routes so there was less open field running.

I just think that DGB has a lot of developing to do still regardless of what position he plays in the NFL.  We need a TE, so why not develop him there where he could also be a mismatch.  On most teams, I'd definitely consider him a receiver first.

I don't see the comparison on the field

Hopefully without the PEDs.

Brandon Bridge looks like he would be a good developmental QB with a cannon for an arm.

Lets just sign Julius Thomas and draft Jesse James in the 3rd round.

Agreed.
