Can't afford Maclin? Draft Agholor.


top dawg

Recommended Posts

I saw the computer comp on NFLN, and Mike Mayock said it was an interesting comparison---his tone giving me the feeling that he was actually considering it to be somewhat true, so I looked him up, and maybe...

Nelson Agholor looks fairly smooth and looks to be a threat on punt returns.  An unnamed NFC scout apparently believes that his ceiling is as a slot receiver.  Perhaps the scout is right, but it sure does look like he can play on the outside when I look at his highlights, and he looks fairly physical.  As for speed, he ran a 4.42 which is almost identical to Maclin's 4.45

I doubt he makes it to us in the second.  We'd have to take him at 25 and he'd probably be worth it too.

 

There would have to be a run on WRs and OTs for us to probably even consider taking him in the first, and so far Agholor doesn't have a first round grade.  It's still early though, so who knows what will happen?

Ya its too early, for all we know he could have a first round grade next week this stuff changes all the time.  I really don't think he'd be much of a reach at 25, he's explosive, a great route runner, and fills a need as a returner.

 

104 catches in 2014 (3rd USC all time)

USC punt return for TD record (4)

2013: 19.1 yards per punt return (school record)

 

obviously getting him in the 2nd would be ideal, but I could see a team like the Raiders snagging him early 2nd.

Love Agholor. He'd be a great fit here and a good compliment to Kelvin. Doubtful he's around in the 2nd round and I actually think he could be worth a 1st.

 

At 25 we may end up having our choice between Strong, Agholor, Perriman, Devin Smith, and DGB. All very good players that could instantly start for us and be difference makers.

The question is who to choose from them 5 or another person or position

    • For the silly people that worship her it will be that.  The Coleman 'legend' thing, they did that with another fairly average player that was here and I sort of mocked or questioned the 'legend' status. Instantly caught crap for insulting someone's favorite Panther. So okay, Kurt Coleman is a Legend. 
    • You allow him to compete--you all are talking as if I am proposing making him the starter. Give him a new coach, new weapons, good OL, etc. and see what happens. You are saying, "Well Damn.  It did not work for 3 guys..."  Right now, our C is injured, we lost our top 2 WRs.  Better question:  If you need a QB, Why would you not take a chance on bringing in a QB who was a former first rounder, a good arm, intelligence, mobility, youth, etc.  and see how he does out of NY--with a better OL, better running game, better receivers.  I am not saying give him a 10-year contract, I am saying give him a chance. You act like there is no improvement on offense here--it was a 2 year process, and next year is year 2.  To me, how can you sit there with Bryce and an opportunity to sign a veteran QB on the cheap comes available and you say--"Not us. We're good.  We are waiting for Patrick Mahommes."  Jone's problem is obviously mental--and he has little support.  Why is this so frigging hard to comprehend.  It is called "bottom fishing" and it is better than sitting in the boat.  
    • I think we're going to fall from behind quite early and be forced to abandon the run game.  3 rushes -2 yards 1 catch -10 yards
