scott24falcs Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 He's excellent at catching the ball with his hands, rather than letting it hit his chest. He's also very good at breaking off of his route and getting open. I would love to have a WR like him on our team. Michael Jenkins needs to be on the first plane out of town.

I think he would have an immediate impact with his size and speed in a 3 WR set, and he can return punts and kicks if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidWest Falcon Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 I live in Kansas, everyone out here loves him. I am always forced to watch K State as well so I saw him all year long. He is the real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Maguire Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Scott Wright says he won't stretch the field vertically... I question this guy. I know he is a "guru," but really, Jordy Nelson has BURNT some good CBs deep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dan minnich Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 i like this guy also, the only thing i dont like about him is that he doesnt seem to be very quick or have a first quick step. i was watching him at the senior bowl practice and that was one of the first things that stood out to me. he does have good built up speed and catches the ball nice. i would love if the falcons drafted him in the 3rd round or so.

capATL Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 At the Senior Bowl, one of the guys covering him was asked what he thought of Jordy. His comment was that he wasn't fast, but he always seemed to get open and had good hands. I could see him being a Welker type giving a good option in the middle and maybe playing from the slot. I thought he looked impressive in the practices, but not really a consistent deep threat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember one of the NFLN guys commenting on how the staff at K-State said when he got going he could run like Yamon Figurs... His deep speed would fit nicely in a vertical system.

Lord Sarcomere Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 Too many needs to take a WR in this years draft, which really is a shame. There are some great prospects up until the fourth round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some great prospects up until the fourth round.ATL needs depth at every position. I don't see it as a position the team won't draft. Horn won't be around long, Finneran is gonna get cut, Jenkins won't be here for long, and Jennings job is in jeopardy as a PR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had kept Pigtrino's offense, I think we would have had a better chance to sign him because its more of a spread offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same as with CB. Obviously we need OL badly, so we'll take advantage by default there.We need to look to free agency to get a WR.
