2024 Draft Countdown/NFL Prospects thread

[football karma]

Easier said than done. Even good talent evaluators miss most of the time.

as an example:

the Eagles are upper tier talent evaluators

they also decided Jalen Reagor was a better WR prospect than Justin Jefferson

it happens

Latu has got to be rising up the board in round 1.
I would imagine Verse is falling.

I'd be happy with Coleman or Odunze with the Texans pick or a trade down.

I think someone like Coleman might suit Kyler more. I think Mike Wilson and MHJ can do similar things, maybe not at the same level but close enough. Someone like Coleman offers that jump ball/contested catch guy outside that Kyler can use on alerts. Which is something he has shown he's a fan of.

I think Latu is the best Edge in the draft. I thought that before but this season is confirming it.

very interested in Keon Coleman for a few reasons-

the biggest is that i think the Cardinals win enough games to be lower than 2nd overall. That means no MHJ (unless Monti trades up).

I know -- pretty optimistic for a fan of a 1-6 team.

but as a prospect: lots to like there. Size and thicker built than MHJ. Hands and body control. Contested catches.

would love to see someone who knows what to look for evaluate his route running and the finer aspects of being a pro WR.

i am haunted by something Chopper said tho: beware of college contested catch WRs.

Doesn't he have a neck injury concern? I think his first college team made him stop playing football.

probably more of a 4-3 guy on the edge than 3-4

the Eagles ran a 4-3 the last two years with Gannon -- im surprised they didnt go to it here

maybe that was a roster thing -- but they have taken their medicine everywhere else

I really enjoy watching him at Washington. However, non overly twitchy

I mean technically Marvin Harrison Jr is that. Larry Fitzgerald was that.

I think the big thing MHJ is I hope he attacks the YAC improvement like Fitz did. Haley really opened up his eyes to a more complete guy. Not questioning MHJ work ethic cause his father was one of the all time greats. Just hope he eventually becomes great at that as well.

Double up on DT's

I would absolutely love this.

Funny as I think the opposite. He plays out of a 2 point stance a bunch and only weighs about 255.

 

[TheCardFan]

They call him "rocket" Sanders - how fast can he be at this size?

i thought i saw him listed at 275 or so -- 255 is very OLB-ish

 

[SoonerLou]

Feel bad for Kirk. Maye or Caleb might just wind up on the Vikings after all.

Or this is a possible place to trade Kyler if we get a top 2 pick.

We're #1!

I still don’t get the point/possibility of getting rid of Kyler just to draft Caleb


Even the biggest Kyler critics/Caleb supports need to explain that

If he were 400 pounds running a 5.0 forty would qualify him for the "Rocket" moniker... but at 242... hmm... maybe 4.4?

There’s too much weirdness regarding Caleb. The attitude question is there and we know how Riley QB’s do in the league. Jalen Hurts needs a damn superteam to look good.

 

[TheCardFan]

Kyler just has to perform like a franchise QB, if not then you got to blow it up and start over at QB.
You can't pay a guy top money for mediocre play with our talent level. As you know, that is purgatory.

I am hoping Kyler is the franchise QB - makes everything else easier/less risky.

Rocket Sanders is 6-2/242.
Derrick Henry is 6-3/247 and ran a 4.5

So, 4.4 would be incredible.

Resetting the cap is the only real reason why.

I'm really interested on how he measures at the combine. He just doesn't look anywhere near 265 to me but the UCLA fans I know insist he's close to that.

None of these guys are alike.

Bears inexplicably offered the 2nd and 3rd picks for the 1st pick. And then the real fun began
