2025 Draft: WRs

[bakes781]

I had to look up Hobert. He's basically known for these 2 moments.

 

[bakes781]

Not a good look

@manxman2601 you brought him to my attention bwoy he looks tempting on Day 3.

Yup. A low target high production receiver with good speed. I compared him to DK Metcalf in terms of size/speed vs low wiggle.

I hope Burden makes it wasn't sold on his 24 tape: looks like an average WR. How he runs is going to be key: if he runs horribly he'll be available in the Third.

More like Great Speed X all the way.

Mike Vrabel mentioned contested catches in his press conference again today. So here's a list of the top 15 draftable WRs based upon contested catch rate and having more than 50 catches:

1. Savion Williams, TCU - 81.8%

2. Joey Hobert, Texas State - 70%

3. Ja'Corey Brooks, Louisville - 69.6%

4. Pat Bryant, Illinois - 69.2%

5. Elijah Badger, Florida - 68.8% (Less than 50 catches)

6. LaJohntay Wester, Colorado - 66.7%

7. Jack Bech, TCU - 65%

8. Kyle Williams, Washington St - 62.5%

9. Andrew Armstrong, Arkansas - 62.1%

10. Tre Harris, Ole Miss - 61.5%

11. Xavier Restrepo, Miami - 61.5%

12. Matthew Golden, Texas - 61.1%

13. Konata Mumpfield, Pitt - 60%

14. Roc Taylor, Memphis - 60%

15. Tet McMillan, Arizona - 60%

Jayden Higgins and Emeka Egbuka just miss out.

Savion Williams Route Tree is very limited Day 3 maybe no way on Day 2.

I'm listening to an All 32 video on Youtube with Mike Giardi. Giardi says Tet Mcmillan has told team he will not run at the Combine OR his Pro Day, and it's not injury-related. He's heard rumors of him running in the 4.7s in the 40. Screw that. He needs to bulk up and hopefully he'll be a decent TE. But he's way off my board.

He will be lucky to go in the 1st now

I have mixed feelings about Tet and definitely I do not want him to be taken by us with 4th.

[manxman2601]

I might join the Higgins/Noel bandwagon. Or just go full binky with Horton/ Kyle Williams

 

[Joey007]

How about my Iowa State boys?

Can we take both?

 

[manxman2601]

AJ Brown

6'
226lbs
33" arms
4.49
1.56 10 yd
36.5" VJ
10' Broad

Jayden Higgins

6'4"
214lbs
33" arms
4.47
1.53 10 yd
39" VJ
10'8" broad

Not a perfect comparison, particularly on weight and height, but not a mile off on the testing.

So long as no-one beats us to either, I say yes.

Don't love the lack of agility testing.

We'll get them. For comparison's sake, AJ Brown did a 6.89 at his pro day.

 

[manxman2601]

I’d add Tory Horton.

And Darien Porter for the hattrick!!!
