He just needs to put on some muscle. 180 lbs is pretty light for a wr.
So glad we got our 3rd guy at WR. We needed another one. Hopefully get another one today in the 6th round.

Emmanuel Sanders size and athletic ability. I've seen Darnell Mooney/Diontae Johnson as his comp.

You think Gray can beat the press at the NFL level?

Have you seen him play?

thats not why we drafted him though hes a field stretcher who can make an impact by touching the ball 2-3 times a game.

In order to stretch the field he will first need to beat press coverage.

It's hard to get press coverage on a receiver who lines up in the slot because they usually line up back off the line. Not to mention if they are sent in motion. So, he won't have to consistently beat man press to stretch the feild, he's going to be fine for what they will use him for.

We already had our third guy, now we have our fourth, and another deep threat other than Aiyuk.
Drafting juan jennings back up in one of our precious 3rd round slots. Visionary. I guess this is a trey lance big arm pick.

Wonder what deebs and aiyuk are thinking right now.

Probably likely it because his deep route ability will take a safety with him opening lanes for them on mid routes. Which if you haven't noticed is their specialty. Running across the field 15 yards down the field.

Do we need to burn a draft pick on that? We got benjamin. We can pick up the phone and call marquise. For peanuts. I mean we just lost dj. We have no left guard. Our right guard is a turn style and our right tackle is rehabbing a career threatening injury. You know? And here we are drafting a number 4 receiver when we had the best receiver room in the nfl for 2021. You know? Can we stop with this kiss-shanny-ass-on-draft-day strategy already? It hurts us.

Don't need this pick. This wasn't a need. This team still has holes to fill.

BPA bay-bay!

This... I fully expect Jennings to have a solid year but as you said now we can take the top off.

If Trey/Jimmy have enough time that is...
