It's hard to justify aggressive trade-up for a guy who is 5'11. NOBODY had him WR5 or lower. Kyle may have loved him as a scheme fit, but he's not really a WR1 type stud in any way. Not sure anyone was in this draft, which is why they all fell after 15 despite their agents paying SI for a cover etc. No Julio Jones's, Dez Bryant, Megatron.
ya, he's a another gadget type WR. i think he's gonna be pretty decent, maybe even good, but it's hard justifying trading up for him when we barely have any picks. him and Kinlaw better turn out to be real good players.
Gadget WR?
He wins on the outside regularly. That's straight from Shanahan.

He's 5'11". He's Marquise Goodwin with better hands. He is NOT and will never be Emmanuel Sanders. He's a vertical guy who will be targeted maybe 5-7 times a game. Reason being, if they use him regularly to move the sticks and poach between the hashes he will GET KILLED.
You shouldn't trade up on a guy who will be targeted a half dozen times MAX.
Hopefully I am wrong and he will work out and turn in to a regular piece if he adds 5-7 lbs and stays at 4.45.

This is true. The video below is CGI.

The most underrated aspect of Aiyuk we are not talking about is that he is an absolute burner.

This is what I like to hear. I feel that of the top 3 WRs to get playing time, at least one of them has to be feared to win deep. Doesn't have to be 4.3, but does have to have the ability to win vertically. 4.45 with a core injury makes me hopeful.
