2026 Draft: WR

Thanks, very interesting, even though I have no idea what a ADOT is. It is like a 20/20 hindsight parley, contested catch rate > 80.0%, a drop rate < 7.5%, and an ADOT > 8.0 in their 'best' college season.
adot = 'average depth of target'.
 
Bell only sits until Thanksgiving. Diggs was back after 9 months, Bell had surgery at the beginning of December so 9 months is over at the beginning of September.

You have to ask yourself who do you want at the end of R2, Omar Cooper Jr. or Chris Bell? That is your choice.
You know Me and WR's One-if: I have been wanting to like Copper Jr. but I want a 6'2 and up WR. Cooper is very underrated but he plays Big: kind of reminds me of K Boutte. Going from Mendoza to Maye Heaven on Earth for a young WR.

Cooper - Height 6′ 0″, Weight 204 lbs
Bell - Height 6′ 2″, Weight 220 lbs
Hollins - Height 6′ 4″, Weight 221 lbs
 
I never really have those. I'm a glass half full guy when it comes to the draft. There would just be others I'd prefer.
Where would you consider J Lane a value selection??
 
Cooper - Height 6′ 0″, Weight 204 lbs
Bell - Height 6′ 2″, Weight 220 lbs
Hollins - Height 6′ 4″, Weight 221 lbs
Bell is more closer to Hollins than Cooper; give or take more or less.
 
2027 WR corps. Would you take it?

WR 1 Kayshon Boutte
WR 2 Kyle Williams
WR 3 Omar Cooper Jr or De'Zhaun Stribling
WR 4 Efton Chism
WR 5 some 6'4" beast drafted in 2027 draft.

I am not convinced that Kyle Williams is going to work out. I notice Pop is not on your list - he does not completely "click" with the offense and Williams doesn't appear to either. Boutte clicked in Y2 so maybe Williams will as well. Until then, Williams as WR2 is a huge reach IMO.

Maybe Josh is not targeting Williams as a primary read, and Williams will blossom next year. We will see.

I would prefer a taller, stronger receiver higher on the list.

I would be ok with 2026 Diggs, Boutte, Williams, Hollins, Cooper/Stribling, Chism. Would need to re-assess for 2027 before committing, but would assume Diggs/Hollins would need to be replaced.

Would depend a bit on how the youngsters progressed, and on the TEs and RBs.

Charlie Becker works for me as a "6'4" beast drafted in 2027 draft".

One-if KW will be fine those Big TD plays alone by him are telling. A sign of better things to come: I am very hopeful. KW is nothing like those previous Busts we Drafted.

Sorry couldn't resist.

I am hopeful too. KW has a great attitude and Diggs is a good mentor. But I have to see "Diggs like understanding of the defense" before I can place KW above WR4.

I would love for Him to hit a Big Play against that Texan D this Afternoon. KW has it was in him.
 
This is a really good look at Ted Hurst. I do love a WR that both hand catches and highpoint the ball. Some really promising route running too.

 

Omar Cooper looks very good I'm not a fan of his height on our Team: because of the redundancy. I want a Taller WRs: but he's making me rethink my preference.

He looks great with the ball in his hands. Just a junior though right?
When looking at WR, i want someone that can get open quick on those intermediate routes and be that safety blanket for Maye.

He has declared for the draft (I presume you're talking about Cooper). He is the 2nd highest graded WR against zone coverage this season behind Makai Lemon only.
