Anthony Miller in R2 or R3 is a better value . Therse not alot of speed guys in this draft 

Miller is thought more of a slot guy.  He is quick, but people say he is a 4.5 guy.  Also on the smaller side of 190.

Kirk has that deep speed along with the quickness. Is bulkier side of 200 at 5'11 where he easily breaks more press.  And he still is a solid route runner and quickness.

Had he been in a better offense with a better QB he go High.

Right now there's no WR going in the top 10, possibly not top 15.

Ridley is the currently the best WR this year but he's also paper thin (190 soaking wet) and teams are concerned about that. Wouldn't surprise me if Sutton and ESB leap frog him, ESB can run.

Another thing that will be pushing down WRs is this is a good class for QB and DE, the one and two most important positions in football.

That's cool

The numbers are what they are and they're very similar, but the difference is touchdowns. Not only does Kirk get to the end-zone on receiving, but he's a dangerous return man. We talking 33 TD's total to 19 TD's in 3 years

Ah yes just what we need another slot WR...

We need a WR not a return man/slot guy. We have both Samuel and Byrd that can play the slot we need someone we can pair up with Funchess and the better fit for that is Ridley. 

So spare me your “that’s cool”

Kirk isnt a slot like the kid from Memphis.  He complements the bigger Funchess well.

He's fast and quick but at the same time is built well. 200 at 5'11.  He can handle outside.  Has the quickness, and when they play man press has the build to fight off the press

 

ODBj was 5'11 198 at the combine, Kirk is 5'11 200. 

 

There is a reason they compare him to ODBj.

Kirk like ODBj plays with terrible QBs in college

ODBj had 143 rec for 2340 and 12 TDs in 3 seasons

Kirk 234 and 2856 and 26 TDs in 3 

 

 

ODBj predraft stuff sounds a Whole lot like what people say about Kirk now

 

"Quick hands and feet to slip the jam. Fluid and fast. Good balance. Sinks his hips and changes gears to create separation. Quick hands to pluck off his frame. Terrific leaping ability -- climbs the ladder to snatch throws. Creates after the catch -- shows burst and shiftiness as a runner. Has playmaking ability. Confident and competitive. Has kickoff- and punt-return experience. Productive three-year starter"

I love love Love Miller and think he'll compliment Funchess very well.

If we left with Hayden Hurst and Miller I'd be a very happy Panther fan.

Dont think people are to worried about Ridleys weight.  Its more his age, he's only 6 months younger than Funchess

The one good thing I will continue to vouch for walterfootball is that his sites Draft sources are more legit than not, so I'm gonna trust him when he says some teams are very concerned with Ridley's weight and right now he's considered a late first rounder.

Though his age wouldn't surprise me either.

Receiving their stats were similar and he scored more TD's

FYI: Highest we can possibly pick in the draft right now is 21st, and that's only if both Atlanta and the sixth seed in the AFC win this weekend. 

If the Falcons lose and we lose, we pick somewhere from 22nd to 24th depending on what happens in the AFC Wild Card.
