Bob McGinn 2017 Draft Scout Comments: WRs and TEs

[fishspill]

I think people need to start falling in love with JuJu

I like him, but is there room on the active roster sans injury? He may not play since I don't think he does any special teams.

He'd take Butlers spot the minute he was drafted. Butler and Lucky would fight for the last spot

Also wouldnt be surprising to me if JuJu was more then willing to play on converage units on ST's. He didnt ( to my knowledge) at USC, but he was recruited as a Safety

I watched some games with him, and my thought was this guy is a lot like Dwayne Harris.

I could see that in the return game and in run after the catch, but Henderson appears significantly ahead of Harris as a receiver. Better hands, better route runner, faster, etc..

He reminds me of Dez.

For good or for bad

I think Davis is there at 28. How do you pass on him?

2016:
Offensive DVOA: 3rd
Defensive DVOA: 17th

That's how. If Davis is there at 28 and he is the only player left in his tier (unlikely) you try like hell to move down. And if he's as highly regarded to others as he is to you you'll be able to find a deal.

But doing the same thing over and over (prioritizing offense) and expecting different results....well...i'm not in favor of that.

 

[xwalker]

For good or for bad

Yes, both.

 

[darthseinfeld]

Yes, both.

I think he is a smarter individual as Dez, however not nearly as talented. I think he could be a good 1A in or2 two in the Crabtree mold. But I dont know if will ever be a high volume 1 in the NFL

 

[CowboyChris]

I can't see taking a WR in the 1st 2 rounds....i wouldnt mind a player like Westbrook in the middle rounds....we need a WR that can spread the field.

Josh Reynolds is the guy I'm hoping to see last until day 3. That guy's catch radius, concentration, and ball adjustment skills are super. Don't see why he doesn't get more attention.

Also, this write up of KD Canon makes no sense...

K.D. CANNON, Baylor (5-11, 178, 4.39, 3-4): Third-year junior. “Little bit of a one-dimensional speed guy,” said one scout. “He can really run, but when’s the last Baylor wide receiver to (succeed)? Doesn’t run a lot of routes. Same (expletive) we say every year. Little scary.” Starting 32 of 38 games, he caught 195 for 3,113 (16.0) and 27 TDs. “I don’t believe in those Baylor receivers,” a second scout said. “He fits in with those other guys. Consistency was an issue. He can run, there’s no doubt.” From Mount Pleasant, Texas.​

When? Literally last year - Corey Coleman. Also Terrence Williams and Josh Gordon. Even Kendall Wright, though not a world beater, will end up playing 7+ years and has had a 1,000 yard season. They succeed as much as WRs from any other school.

All about what you get in a trade down, in this draft specifically. If I can get two guys one tier below Davis on defense...

Otherwise, as much as I'd probably be disappointed, I'd take him. He won't be there though.

 

[Teague31]

Don't want a WR at all. And if we draft a pass catching TE that is a poor blocker I will lose my mind.

Did Wright get hurt. He fell off quick

Its starting to sound like Davis could be that guy media scouts think higher of then real ones ala Shariff Floyd. Alot of second round talk with him

He has been hurt some the last three years. Also, he is ultimately not the outside WR that Whisenhunt and Mularkey wanted in their offense. He's really best as a run-after-catch inside WR used closer to scrimmage.
