Round 6, Pick 32 (#208) - Jimmy Horn Jr, WR, Colorado

[pantherclaw]

There is a lot to be excited about this kid....especially where we drafted him. 

 

Fantastic pick. 

[The Lobo]

I hope we find a way to keep him on the roster, I love this pick. 

[CPF4LIFE]

I expect him to make it.

Imagine having TMAC, XL, Coker, and Horn in the slot all on the field at the same time... Time will tell but this could be a dangerous group in the next couple of years... I really do hope they do give this kid some time on the offense as well.

In order of expected snap count:

McMillan

Thielen

XL

Coker

Horn

Moore

Honestly, after really analyzing this roster again, McMillan is a super investment.  Between him and Coker, that's a very reliable duo and opens up XL's role for better chess playing.  Get XL into the slot to beat out the shorty NBs.

If we can geta Tmac/XL/Coker thing going, that is entertaining as hell.  And if Horn or a guy like him hits in that shiftier role, that's a super complete room.

[Jackie Lee]

Stoked on it. I think Blackshear is gone, Horn can make it on the return game, and finally have a little twitchy roach like dude among all these big WR's. So underrated to have in the mix. Plus funny and confident

XL had good hands in college, I think he figures it out this season

Maybe the surgery stuff. Also needs to work on his timing on jump balls, even when wide open he was jumping to body catch stuff. Hopefully he was just compensating for injury or something. Will be interesting to see who other teams determine to put their CB1 on with this WR lineup

I think the jumping was a confidence thing. Once he dropped a couple he was jumping to the ball to try body catch them

Wrist/hand surgery stories came out around/after those issues if I recall so should keep an eye on it. Either way he has the speed etc to make the defense put a guy on him, just dunno if he's gonna get thrown that many balls if he doesn't convince the OC/QB he's gonna come down with it
