Burrows was excellent in this game.
He had a ton of pressure by the Alabama front seven and yet he was never fazed.
I know that he is a old senior but he his a damn good one.
Honnestly, he is one of the College QB that impressed me the most the last few years.

Kid never looks fazed or bothered out on the field. He will make some team very happy in the NFL I do believe

I'm really intrigued by Jalen Reagor. He has the speed Shanahan loves and is a good punt returner as well. I'm hoping we bring back Sanders and grab a WR early next year. Reagor looks like a second rounder to me, but he could go higher after the combine.



That speed is crazy, but his routes need work

find me a burner, a big target, and somebody that will never drop a ball...ever, even if there is a fire

Antonio Gandy Golden is the guy.

Been saying this since last yr, part of the reason why I was confused as to why they spent a 2/3 on WR

Because it's difficult to delay an immediate need in hope of fixing it down the line. We've seen this strategy blow up in many teams faces in the past, including our own. Plus both rookies now have a year inside this system and learning this difficult offense.

Hopefully we can still grab someone like Henry Ruggs (unlikely after his 40) at the back of the 1st, or trade down to the 2nd and stock up on more picks, then still come away with a Devonta Smith or Jalen Reagor.

This offseason will be so loaded at WR (trade/draft) that we're almost guaranteed to upgrade the position after moving on from Goodwin and Pettis if he doesn't wake up.

Sanders (Hopefully)
Samuel
Hurd
New Addition (Trade/Draft)
Taylor
James/Bourne

best since 2003? interesting.....

2004 - 5 WRs picked in first 15 picks

2007 - 4 WRs went to probowls (Megatron, Tedd Ginn, Bowe, Sidney Rice, Steve Smith)

2010 - 5 WRs went to probowls (Demaryius Thomas, Dez, Golden Tate, Emmanuel Sanders, Antonio Brown)

2011 - 4 pro bowlers (AJ Green, Julio Jones, Cobb, Baldwin (UDFA))

2014 - 5 WRs went to probowls, probably my pick for best. (Watkins, Evans, Beckham, Cooks, Benjamin, Matthews, Adams, Robinson, Landry)

What's crazy is 2021 is also starting to look special with just J.Ross, R.Moore and J.Waddle all looking like surefire first round locks... Moore in a KS offense is

These next 2 draft classes is about to stack the NFL with elite talent at that position.

That's convenient for us!

yeah IMO 2014 was crazy. I wanted OBJ so bad, I didn't think he was gonna go top 12 though.

I get that, I just think this team had other needs and the players they could have gotten there would have been better players than who they went after at WR.

Hope I'm wrong I'm a deebo fan (wanted AJ Brown) but he seems to be coming along. I have my questions about taking Hurd top of the 3rd.

Right now It's looking like we should use that 1st on one of these upcoming WR draft prospects. Love this class. DGAF that we spent many picks these past two drafts on WRs.
Nov 14, 2019 at 12:35 PM
Give me a WR. Any WR who can catch the ball. Reliable hands are a must. A big WR is better than small. I'm sick of all these smurfs who can't catch. Big + great hands. So who is that guy?
