NFL Pick 'em

This draft had to be quality over quantity. We replaced our two biggest losses with players that can contribute right away. Aiyuk is better coming out of college than Sanders was. It's unlikely he would have made it to #31. Just because he was in the PAC doesn't mean he wouldn't have had the same production in the SEC. If he put up a higher 40 time he would have gone 10 picks sooner.

I won't be surprised to see them make a pick tomorrow either.

You try to bench 20x with a 81" wingspan.

Some 7 foot dudes have 81" wingspans. Longest ever in wingspan in the combine for a guy 6 ft or under is what I heard tonight,...correct if wrong.

I'm on the East Coast but cant wait to learn more about this kid.

I saw lots of ASU games last year and really, this kid was just beginning to have the usual chemistry of their young QB (soon to be a 1st rounder) and there were times that he reminded me of STEVE SMITH of the Panthers in his prime !!

give him 89 !!!!

HAH !!

Of course I already have a name for him... I was already giving each players of this draft certain nicknames even before they get drafted..

... and since this kid is a DOG for a WR, the nickname I've given him is no other than...

YUCK !!!!

It'll be the way he'll makes them DBs look SILLY !!! YUCKKKKKKK !!!

also, from the cartoon character tht I used to watch in the 80s..

YUCKKKK !!!
