The 2019 NFL Draft Thread

But back to Metcalf I think he is either going to be a huge bust or a PB imo. Is 1.9% body fat even healthy? That is ridiculous. I just don't know how you tackle a guy that runs a 4.3 and is 230+ pounds. Also, has a 40+ inch vert. If his route running is that bad he isn't going anywhere though. I still think there is no middle ground, he will be the next Julio or Justin Blackmon.

He could end up being somewhere in the middle.

He did most of his damage in college when teams lined up next to him and tried to jam him at the line. Metcalf has a lot of moves for beating jams and then he just outruns people. When it comes to route running and actually making contested catches he needs a ton of work but thats why you have coaches.

I could see him having a career like DeMariyus Thomas. 2 years of people wondering if he is a bust followed by 4-6 years where he is one of the best in football.

Emmanel Hall gives you better receiver skills about a round or two later in the draft and will probably be better at contested catches and route running but doesnt have the robust moves of getting off the line that you see with Metcalf.

I did see it before commenting and noticed that he has two points where he lost some time thats pretty easily correctable.

If you're a Metcalf hater, what you point to is his film against LSU.

He is a 'once every three years' type of talent. I doubt he'll end up like DGB who had a million character issues. Maybe he is the next Julio Jones but I suspect the truth is somewhere in the middle.

The WR talent pool in this draft is like 20-25 deep. Far and away the deepest position.

I don't fully agree with the order but a good look at the pass rushers, fit, etc. Starts about 3 minutes in.

I’m not sure where Tyree Jackson Buffalo QB is projected to go but this kid is a beast. 6’7” 250 and he runs a 4.59. Huge arm but underrated accuracy. Might be a huge steal late. He could sit behind a veteran for a couple years

This guy isnt projected as high as Allen went, high difference imo. This guy is a project. I just was never a fan of Allen, project or not

If you want to compare apples to apples it was pretty close through their first 19 starts

Brown 80 rec, 1129 yards, 8 TD
Metcalf 65 rec, 1206 yards, 12 TDs

well right, but very similar resumes, arm strngth, accuracy, small schools..........why arent they more similarly graded

Calvin, Josh, and Julio don't run routes either they did fine. Hes going to win with size and speed just like they did/do. He made some great catches in college and is a RZ threat.

they could move laterally, and had sustained college production

Dude is just cherry picking stats to confirm a bias he has about players. I guarantee we look back at this list in just one year and at least 2 of those players are going to be stars.

To my knowledge, Polite (Florida pass rusher) has already fell off everyone's draft boards, too, so he is a weird pick.
