Let's talk WRs - Page 33

Who's your top ranked receiver right now?

For me, the most pro-ready and best all around prospect at WR is Amari Cooper. He would come in and immediately start across from Bowe and eventually replace him as the primary WR.

What's wrong with Sammy Coates?

The guy has all of the tools in the world, I would equate him to Vernon Davis but at the WR position, but he hasn't produced much at all this season. Coates isn't even close to being his team's leading receiver so I'm not going to blame it on the scheme. Physically, Coates looks like a top 10 pick but his production is that of a mid to late rounder. Where would you take him?

Any thoughts on Coates' teammate, D'haquille Williams?

There is a massive difference in production between he and Sammy Coates so far this year; yes, this could be entirely due to Coates being injured from the Arkansas game but Coates only caught one pass in that game and dropped a possible TD pass despite playing 52 snaps against the Razorbacks. Williams is a JUCO transfer with good size, speed, and explosiveness, though not on the same level as Coates as far as pure physical ability goes. Is he a potential #1 WR or just a 2 at best?

Does DGB declare? If so, do you even dare to touch him given his off-field issues?

Despite not playing this season, I think that there is a real possibility that DGB does declare for the 2015 NFL draft; he just doesn't seem like the type of person who would be willing to go through another year of college over getting paid as a pro athlete. If he does declare, what round would you be willing to take a risk on him? The guy has had problems with at least two key NFL issues, abuse of women and weed. DGB has top 5 talent but an off-field reputation that would have him banned from the league if he had committed those acts as a Pro.

Do Jaelen Strong, Kevin White, or Devante Parker have enough speed to be potential #1 WRs? If not, are their other gifts good enough for them to be close to what Larry Fitzgerald has been in the league?

Is Stefon Diggs actually that fast? When I watch him, I don't see the same dimension of speed that guys like Jackson, Wallace, etc have. I'll be very curious to see what he actually runs at the Combine.

Who are you guys keeping your eyes on this year at the WR position?

I think Perriman's size and speed puts him the first round. His Dad playing in the NFL also lends some Creedence to his ability. In a deep WR draft, the smart teams take them early so they can fill the roster spot with a quality player.

Doesn't really matter, he'll be long gone, probably to the Vikings.

I also wouldn't put it past Dorsey to pull the trigger on Perriman. He loves height, weight, speed guys and since he has no shot at White, the next best thing in that regard would be Perriman.

RunKC · 04-12-2015, 02:23 PM

I just can't get over the drops from Perriman. I would rather have a less athletic reliable hands catcher than an elite athlete who struggles to catch.

O.city · 04-12-2015, 07:56 PM

Perriman seems to be Torrey Smith 2.0.

Not a bad thing to have, but not complete.

Sure, but he won't last to us. Parker would likely be a fit for all teams.

SI's Peter King says Central Florida WR Breshad Perriman has at least two teams in the teens "looking seriously at him."
Perriman's Pro Day times of 4.19 and 4.27 at 6'2/212 have his stock on the rise. Just about every team in the teens could use difference-making WR help, but the Dolphins (No. 14), 49ers (No. 15) and Browns (No. 19) stand out. Perriman is the son of ex-Lions WR Brett Perriman.

I'm sure that we're one of those teams.

**The Franchise** · 04-13-2015, 09:25 AM

Guarantee the Dolphins are one of those teams. If I had to guess.....I'd say the 49ers are the other.

Is anyone else enamored with Chris Conley? I love the kid.

6'2" 213 lbs, 33.75 arms, barely under 10 inch hands. Ran a 4.35 40, 45 inch vertical. Damn

This is the big target we need. Dude has blazing speed, is a natural hands catcher and ran a variety of routes at Georgia.

I would absolutely take this guy in rd 2

Round 3, I would be ecstatic. Rd 2, I would smile.

I never saw much of him. What's the reason why he never put up big numbers?

Also, does he play to his measurables?
