2026 Draft: WR

[manxman2601]

I think Stribling is going to be a riser throughout the draft process. The only thing mitigating against that is the fact that he's a 5th year senior but I can see him being a day two guy.

In this video he hits over 22mph. For reference in their two big TDs against the Bucs, both Kyle Williams and Treveyon hit in the 21 mph range. Both were low 4.4 guys so I suspect Stribling might get into the high 4.3s.

Priority UDFA Barefoot Jr??

No. I think LSU twitter are expecting him to stay.

Priority UDFA Barefoot Jr??

He's much better than that. Possible 3rd-4th rounder.

Fourth Round: Third round too rich for Barefoot Jr.

I have not been following all the names in here, so I apologize if this young man has been addressed. Ted Hurst listed at 6-2 195 has some good highlights, but I know that doesn't tell the story. He is on my list to dig into but was wondering if there are any preliminary thoughts on him.

Here's a scouting report on Hurst from Sam Teets:

Iowa State Brock Purdy's old school have brought some decent receivers in the league: up and coming guys *see Houston Texans*. What's the take on that Guy below?? Love his outside the numbers game.

On the topic of IU, Surratt looks to be to be a Jacobi Meyers level talent, good hands, good routes, not gonna wow any stopwatches but will move chains. Day 3??? Omar Cooper is far less consistent but should also get drafted.

I'm into the Big Guys too but if we are getting a smaller guy he as to be a Jaxon Smith-Njigba clone *open like 7/11*. And his name is Elijah Serratt.

I think Sarratt will be a borderline day 2/3 guy. If he runs low 4.5s then probably round 3. Closer to the 4.6s and he might have problems. Excellent receiver though.

I've shared it before but I love this play. Zach Branch sits in the zone for the reception and then smokes Jelani Mcdonald and Michael Taafe with the burst for a significant gain.

The Daft on Draft guys were talking about De'Zhaun Stribling and James Foster's first comment on him was telling.

Cory Kinnen: "De'Zhaun Stribling is my draft crush right now"

James Foster: "Such a good run blocker"

Pats may require all WR prospects to get a cardiac MRI to determine if they have the same size heart as Mac Hollins.

Chris Bell, WR, Louisville 6-2, 227lbs
This one is interesting. Dane Brugler has made him his no 2 WR in the class.He's an X/Z and whilst his size is AJ Brown like (and I do wonder whether that might intrigue Vrabel), when I watch him, he plays like a bigger Kyle Williams. The first thing I noticed with Williams was his ability, and explosiveness, to transition to full speed almost immediately on catching the ball. I see something very similar with Bell. Also, Bell apparently has the best separation score on go routes amongst returning receivers.

That's nice and all. But will he be available at pick #32?
