I think Deebo could become a pretty good player. I just think he was a bit over drafted. Early 2nd is pretty high for him. I like that he is strong and physical. He also seems to have pretty good hands and runs good routes. He is a little short though and not as dynamic or productive as I would really want for this draft status. I think there were better players on the board at multiple positions. They were pushing hard for WR. Which you don't really want to do.

But I will hope for the best for him and hope they find the right way to scheme and utilize him. I don't think he was a terrible pick. I just think they left some potentially better players on the board to push for this WR issue.

Translation: I just went out and watched his highlights and read his scouting report after trashing the pick

I never really trashed the Deebo pick. I never really felt bad about it. I just think there were other better players available when we picked. But I think Deebo can be a good or even really good player for this team. I hope for the best for him. Pick #3 however was a real odd decision.

I honestly liked Hurd pick more than Deebo. Hurd is gonna shock people.

Deebo was the best receiver on Senior Bowl week IMHO.
And he was coached by our team so I bet they know him very well.
He is electric and tough as f**k.
You want red zone threat , well he can be your man. His foot work is outstanding.
But like I said the draft is really a crapshoot.

Kyle got all butt hurt when asked about size. "He plays big!" No Kyle, size in the NFL means 'height' via the media/fans. You have the shortest WR unit in the NFL minus Hurd.

Who cares? Can they get open? That is what matters most. Deebo gives them a guy that can be super physical and knock DBs around.

We stress guys that can separate because Shanny trusts in his offense.

But you can't deny the fans hunger for guys that win at the point of the attack with length. Everyone else is doing it. Maybe Hurd is that guy.

With length? Why with length? Why not with skill?

I am hungry for quality WR. I don't care about his size.

Edelman seems to being just fine
