2026 Draft: WR

[manxman2601]

Is Cooper a late Day 2 or day 3 guy??

I'm hoping very late day two but that might be overly hopeful. I'd be amazed if he lasts until day 3.

Did he declare??

Did he declare??

NVM

Did he declare??

Apologies. I've mis-read his sheet. He's a RS Jr and hasn't declared yet so it's very possible he goes back.

Do you know who they have after Mendoza??

They have his brother but have also just signed Josh Hoover from TCU who will probably be the starter.

@manxman2601 @mayoclinic @bakes781 this is it Scouts and I'm not back tracking. Our Second Round Selection Must be WR Chris Bell. We have the option to sit him for an entire year: our WR situation get's very interesting after next season. Having Bell in the wings to start 2027 is prudent: I don't see a Team pulling the trigger in the First or Top of the Second Round for him. Ryan Cowden you listening I know you read this Board.

I wouldn’t be sad about it.

Bell has been my WR binky all year. He plays WR like a LB. Can probably rush the passer, too.

Bell @ 64 works for me.

What changed for you?

 

[mayoclinic]

Charlie Becker my 2027 WR binky. Jamari Johnson at TE.

Barefoot Jr?? Make sense to me.

I hope we grab a TE this year from Round 4 on. We need some youth there: I don't know what we have in CJ Dippre.

NY Giants 2026 NFL Draft scouting report: Malachi Fields, WR, Notre Dame

Could Notre Dame wide receiver Malachi Fields be a hidden gem for the receiver needy NY Giants?

A good day 3 value is about right.

I wonder if this is common knowledge by now in the league especially with these very tall receivers: "What I did between 30 and 40..."

I had tons of fun with this website last year because of that aspect. Booty had a max speed of 23.09 at 30 yds and at 40 was 23.39, his top speed was 23.77 so at some point between 30 and 40 he ran out of gas. So in my head, thinking like an offensive guy, I am like he is a 35 yard deep ball. He also had a crazy amount of acceleration between 10 and 20 so I was like yep intermediate slants and deep back shoulders where he can sell the go route or post. Doesn't mean it play out like that but I imagine that there is room for this data in play design.

Omar Cooper Jr is the second highest graded WR against zone coverage in the class behind Makai Lemon. Why is this important?

De'Zhaun Stribling highlights

I've been wathcing a little of Omar Cooper and he seems a perfect Diggs replacement. If we could get him in the 3rd i'd be all over it.

I agree. He's jumped Stribling as my favourite value WR. I have a feeling that if he declares he could go 2nd round. He'll jump Bernard and probably Sarratt too and, because of his injury, maybe even Chris Bell.

Is Germie Bernard a Deebo Samuel clone?? Which Round do you think he goes?? I am starting to like him.
