Richie James

Background
From Sarasota Florida and went to Riverview High School. Played QB & WR. Also was into track (400m, 400m relay, long jump)

Strengths

Listed at/around 5'9/185 but plays much bigger than that.
James will catch through traffic/contact, go up for contested catches knowing hes gunna take a hit. And doing so he uses his hands and pulls the ball in.

He always tries to use his hands. Caught 105/107 targets last year

He also is very good at tracking the ball and looks like a centerfielder out there.

Smooth fluid feet that win at the los, in route and yac.

He's at his best w/ the ball in his hands. He
has a great slide step, will lull defenders to sleep w/ hesitation moves and has the ability to plant his feet/foot and move his hips/shoulders. Basically looking like 2 different targets, high/low, for defenders.

James had the speed to win deep, the route running abilities to use the entire field, the moves to take for 6 on bubble screen and has shown no problems dealing with the physicality that comes w/ the position.

Equanimeous St Brown

Background
Full Name is, Equanimeous Tristan Imhotep J St Brown. Fluent in German, English and French.
Mother, Miriam was in Germany. Father Jon Brown was a bodybuilder and now runs his own clothing company. He was a 2 Time Mr Universe and 3 time Mr World. Very instrumental in all 3 of his sons lives in terms of practicing, working out and setting goals to achieve. Overall work ethic. Ex, Odell catches 300 balls a day, so Equanimeous & his bros catch 310.

Going to start some rough Evals on some of the bigger names. Finished watching Darnold test and will post some thoughts about him and Key later today/tonight.

Any questions or suggestions feel free

Legit arm talent but also this Favre-ish quality about him. Gunslinger type but can also just get it done and make a play.







Check out @MattBowen41's Tweet:

I wrote that at times its almost like he bends the ball. Just great touch and placement. And again this is a 21 year old kid.
 


Looks off/pumps and shows some patience letting the play develop/his receivers get free.




NFL throw. Shows great patience against what looks like cover 2, both S high and spilt them.






NFL throw, just ask Russell Wilson. Spots the defenders on a rub route and shows off a lil arm strength.

Next years wide receiver class has potential to rival the 14 guys. Could be pretty ****in special.

Tate shows the ability to get off with quick feet, jab step and hesitation moves. Shows natural hands, leaping ability and body control.

Big powerful guy with big powerful strides. Sutton is a guy that play to his size and gives you everything you want. Leaping ability, 50/50, speed and will stack a CB, shows good hands. Wants to be the best.

Oh my goodness. Tate could be special

My RB1 as well.

D.G. And Barkley both show that jump cut and explosion you want. If you're drafting a guy that high (Top 5-ish)he has to create for himself and these 2 do just that.
 


Talked about Key on the 1st page


*Side Note*

Wish I could literally combine Key and Landry physically and mentally. Landry is a lil more mature and ready. His body is maxed out or close to it but its a lot farther along. His lower half is built.

RUSH #2 right now but he could def push #1. Can't wait to see if he added to pass rush.
 
Like a lot of things the talent in the draft goes in cycles.

One year you'll a strong RUSH class followed by a weaker one.

This year's RUSH class looks great although I can't speak to the depth just yet.

Also very curious about VV. Next years top 10 will be full of QB's n T's that will push him down some after an almost certain top 10 pick this year? If he improves even slightly it'll be extremely interesting to see the top half shape up.
 


Guy runs with a purpose.

Love a pass rusher that shoots out and stays low.
