chris2010 Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 What are everyone's thoughts on him? Measured 6'1 204 at the Senior Bowl and so far receiving rave reviews. He looks like someone who is going to continue to climb draft boards throughout the process. I would have no problem with him being the WR we target in this draft.

Arkridge Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 If he was there in the 4th round I'd love to have him. He's a versatile chess piece but I think we have bigger needs to address anytime before pick 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris2010 Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 I have a feeling he is taken in the second. Saw some people that are in mobile this week say they would not be surprised to see him get mocked to teams in the late 1st. WR is a need for us, just not sure how early we target that position.

Knight of God Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I love him, would take him as early as the third. Some industrious team will take him and try new things with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam25 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He's doing well at the Senior Bowl, he's also said that he wants to play for the red and black and help Julio, so therefore I'd love him as a Falcon. He said today that he'd run a 4.28 or low 4.3's if he can continue to develop his route running I'd be fine with him. He's been working with Chris Carter too, so the dude is grinding, he's a dynamic player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin_Pernett Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 I'm starting to think we would be lucky if he's there in the second. I'd be okay if we took him there too. The guy has all the talent in the world and is putting in the work to be a world class receiver. Just seeing his improvement in the first year at receiver really fires me up man. I'm willing to bet the kid is special. Give me Julio Roddy and Hardy and work Braxton Miller in where you can until our coaches are confident enough in his abilities as a receiver not just an athlete and watch him flourish. Here's hoping he's in the red and black next season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySG Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He definitely has the physical tools and is committing himself to improving at a new position. Not sure I would take him in the second, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if somebody did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin_Pernett Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Looking like we will have to use a 2nd. And this is before the combine. Wouldn't be surprised if a team like Carolina took him in the first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrough Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 He told the AP that he will run a sub 4.3 40 at the combine. If he does, then he's a late 1st, early 2nd round pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoneOne01 Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The fact that he's much more further along than expected shows that he's a fast learner. Wouldn't surprise me if he gets taken in the late first. Especially in this WR class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzard_falcon Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 The only real downside besides lack of experience is that he'll be 24 this year, so he's a little old for a rookie. That said, I'd definitely grab in with our 2nd round pick. Especially if playoff teams like PIT, KC, and NE are interested in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
direwolf Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 I'd be fine with taking him. Got a feeling he could be like Antwan Randle-El and be both a productive receiver and a gift for gadget plays and receiver options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abstract Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 If we go heavy on defense in free agency and get a play making d lineman or lber in the first I wouldn't mind Miller in the second at all. We are probably the best possible landing spot for this guy. He would have two of the best wr's technique wise in the last 10 years teaching him how to play the position.

JayOzOne Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Braxton Miller just cut his 40 time from 4.50 at the combine to 4.33-4.36 (unofficial) at his pro day workout. Michael Thomas brought his time down to 4.45. Between the two, if Thomas is there in the second round, I won't be mad if we take him. He's much better than Miller and already has good hands. http://www.elevenwarriors.com/ohio-state-football/2016/03/68715/braxton-miller-reportedy-runs-a-433-and-436-in-40-yard-dash-at-ohio-states-pro-day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jigsaw Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 With the money we just shelled out to Sanu, do people think WR is still an option in the first two rounds? At this point a pick in the defensive front seven, a safety, a guard, or a tight end all make more sense, I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayOzOne Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 We need help and depth at every positional group except DB, QB, and possibly RB right now. If Thomas is there at #51, he'd likely be BPA for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LB, DL, and SS are still holes. As is OG and TE but probably not as pressing as the others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaJoe Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 The big body #2 types we would target I believe are 3rd day targets, Garrett and Cajuste, as would be the speed demon Tevon Davis from Cal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usmcdirtybird Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Josh Doctson (sp) Braxton Miller and Pharoah (sp) cooper are the three receivers that I would love to have in this draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndySG Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 There are a lot of slot receivers this year. Hardy and Sanu probably fill that role for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RYNE Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 Before the Sanu pickup I would have been willing to take him in the 2nd round. I don't think he is anywhere close to where he will end up as far as being a good wide receiver. After getting Sanu... Which I don't like I would still grab him in the 3rd. I really want a pass rusher in the first and a guard in the 2nd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkridge Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 After the Sanu signing, definitely not. Before it? I would have taken Will Fuller or Braxton Miller in the 2nd round and been happy with it. We're in desperate need of a couple LBs, another DE and a SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
