I think he goes late 1st or early 2nd.

I personally think we have other positions of need that will push us to look deeper into the draft for a gem at WR than drafting one in round 1 or two.

OJB was a guy after the season that went from 3rd to early/mid 1st after workouts. Chark has been impressive after getting away from the disaster that is LSU QBs. Maybe he's not too bad. Bring him in and vet the hell out of him. He isn't OJB in terms oof his film (too much body catching), but it's coachable, correctable, and who knows he may be working on that after the bowl game......

He is anything but another Funchess. Funfun wishes he had Charks wheels.

 

Landry also went way higher after workouts. Some schools are hard as hell to judge guys off college production.

Key is out for us. 238 at combine is 3-4 OLB. DE is likely a later pick unless Davenport falls. 

Wow. That's really light. Wasn't he expected to come in close to 270? Isn't he like 6'6"?

This right here could be a very telling tale for us.  If we work him out and I think we will.  If he flies during our workout and Turner sees potential.  I would not be shocked.

238?

Are you serious? 

Wow.  Never would have guessed that one coming from left field.

This is a very good assessment he's falling into the mold of those two with the big jump up after the combine workouts.

Then he'll be a late day one or early day two project.  

People bitch about speed.  The guy came prepared to show off his talents.   You can nickel and dime his catches all you want.  I would rather have a guy who can catch the ball with his chest than a guy would drops balls with his hand.   This isn't saying he can't or won't ever change.  But if you are looking for a guy to stretch the field and CATCH the ball.  He is as good as any.  Many tout Kirk but from what I have read he hasn't faced much press coverage.  

Choose your poison.  I don't think there is one player on this board that is 100% ready to step in and play.

Recently LSU has produced some pretty decent WRs.  Landry and OBJ to name a few.  

l am not pushing to draft him in the 1st round but I wouldn't freak out if we did or round 2.

This is what we need, we need to realize it's always going to be risk his rewards fit this team to a T a perfect marriage if we don't get a speedy vet. Makes so much sense a elite speed athlete with the chance to rejuvenate Cams deep ball especially with Norvs vertical offense game plan.

I don't remember OBJ ever being talked about as a 3rd rounder. I remember some late 1st/early 2nd type talk in January and February and some 3rd round talk for Landry.

I remember the opposite like you. Never heard 3rd and Landry seemed to drop a little after the 4.77. 

Prior to the start of the 2013 season OBJ was a 2nd or 3rd if he came out. As the season progressed solidly in the 2nd as he had a good year. After the season but pre combin it was laaaate 1st early second at worst. Blew it up at the combine and almost everyone said 1st round lock.

 

Chark didn't have the breakout either Landry or OBJ had. Also had an awful QB and not Mettenberger who was at least competent for an NCAA QB.

 

Chark is much bigger and stronger than OBJ, also older coming out. I think he is a solid day 2/3 guy ATM without a team workout. The progression he showed was good. Undeniable athlete. Showed out in the senior bowl too.

 

Bring him in for a workout and see how where he is now with the body catching and route tree. His interviews and team workouts will make or break him now.
