Combine talk

So then you're a "flat out retard" if you responded to my post about 1st round WRs with something that you just said was unrelated.

You gave percentages. Hank has (or should have) a better chance of being a first round pick than any of those guys.

Go ahead and try to prove to me how Torrey Smith has a 70% chance of being a 1st round pick. I need a good laugh.

Whether he actually is a first round pick or not at the end of the day isn't exactly the point. There is just nothing that I see on film that screams future #1 receiver.

 

[Yankees2772]

Many see Smith as the best return man in the draft who can also contribute as a good player. And I'm not saying that's how good they are, I'm saying what I think will happen.

See, that's another reason why I'm not high on Smith. I knew you were going to bring up his return abilities after I made that post. I'm not knocking that phase of his game at all because he IS a great returner. He's just not a great receiver at this point.

I understand what you're saying, and I wouldn't be shocked at all if Smith found his way into the back side of the first round, but I don't like the reasoning for it. I can't see a reason to justify taking a mediocre receiver in the first because he is a good return specialist.

Everyone wants the next Devin Hester.

If you ask me my WR rankings (NOT HOW I THINK THEY'LL GO, BUT HOW I THINK THEY WILL PERFORM IN THE NFL):

1. AJ Green
2. Jonathan Baldwin
3. Julio Jones
4. Leonard Hankerson
5. Titus Young

See, Smith isn't even in my top 5... But he's generally considered to have a solid/good chance of sneaking into the 1st round (Atlanta, Baltimore, Seattle, maybe New England).

Fair enough.

So we can both agree that Torrey Smith is overrated?

In other news, Cam Newton is athletic.

 

[Yankees2772]

I wouldn't say Smith is overrated - everyone acknowledges that he's an ok WR with speed and a very good return man.

I want Locker. I think hes a franchise QB.

His accuracy is fixable.

 

[Yankees2772]

I like Locker more than I do Mallett and Gabbert, actually.

Randall Cobb has my attention.

 

[Yankees2772]

Randall Cobb = Dexter McCluster.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Ahmad Black measures an inch TALLER than listed... not sure if I've ever seen that happen.

God damn, Julio Jones is tearing it up today in everything.

 

[elcheato]

Did some WR really run a 5.00?

 

[Yankees2772]

It seemed a bit off, he didn't look THAT slow.

Torrey Smith 4.37... There we go.

 

[Hurricane Season]

Jonathan Baldwin with a 42" vertical leap to go along with his enormous wingspan... He'd be a welcome addition for ANY quarterback in the NFL.

 

[Mooche]

Julio Jones is blowing this combine open.. Wow. He's going to rise after out performing in about everything that AJ Green has done well.

Jake Locker is fixable, that's true.. I like his upside more so than Mallett and Gabbert as well, but he's going to take some time to work on.

11'3 broad jump for Jones.

Absolutely explosive.
