to begin the stats:

Brian Thomas Jr. WR 6'3'' 209 4.33 1.50
Denzell Williams WR 6'3'' 207 4.38 1.51
Elijah Cooks       WR 6'4'' 208 4.50 1.62 (our next tallest receiver is quite a bit slower and not as quick)

The draft profile:
Brian Thomas Jr.     Prospect grade 6.47   (Will become good starter within two years)
Brian Thomas Jr.     Production Score  79  2024 Combine WR Rank: 7th

Denzell Williams     Prospect Grade  6.33 (Will eventually be plus starter)
Denzell Williams     Production Score  79  2020 Combine WR Rank: 9th

I was looking at what we had behind our first 3 recievers last night. I was underwhelmed by the speed and quickness of our remaining options. It makes a lot of sense to give this guy a chance to turn it around here considering the QB play at his last stops.  That and between growing up in Daingerfield, Texas population 2500? Then going to Baylor in Waco, New York and Pittsburgh had to be quite the culture shock. (not to mention cold)  It would be a pretty good coupe for us to make this work out since he was a 2nd round pick originally. 

on the downside they did have to release receiver Kyric McGowan to make room. (oh the horror!)

If he makes this team I would be SHOCKED.
