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

I would love to know thr real reason sanders fell so far in this draft.   Also no clue why the jets or steelers didnt take a shot on him before the browns.  Crazy if young had not improved down the stretch sanders would have probably been a panther.

I think its pretty clear.  He tanked several interviews with teams that he didn't want to play with, then word spread.  After the teams that needed a QB took a QB the other teams didn't want to deal with his drama as a backup.  In the end the Browns double dipped at QB because they the Browns.  If not he would have gone undrafted

You guys can pull the crazy take on my statements. Ill try to word it better, but Im the worst at that..

 

Remember waaaay back to a fresh trying to prove himself steve smith was drafted. I swear the body type and movement, I see young steve "trying to get on the field" smith. Not saying he will be a HOFer, just he reminds me of green smith.  

fire away..

 

I agree. Just without the crazy.

Not too familiar with him and outside of Hunter I felt like most the Colorado players were overrated. Hope he’s good and helps.

I would’ve probably taken another db before another wr but that’s just me playing fake draft guru.

I can answer this in detail. For player interviews, players are given a short playbook to memorize and prepare with. Has details on line shifts, hot routes, reading defenses to know where the ball should go or if the play should be checked. 

One interview he was very unprepared for and bombed his white board based on said playbook. And when he was corrected on said whiteboard, he scoffed at the head coach running the interview. That was with the giants. 

Another interview, he acted like he didn't want to be there and legit answered his phone during the interview. 

 

The acting like he didn't want to be there was a prevailing detail most teams gave about him. 

 

There's some more that's worse but I don't know if it's believable or not.

Now I am even more curious about what all happened during the interviews.  I just read an article today that said last night he went to a club with a suitcase full of 100s to celebrate and was accompanied by 5 or 6 rappers and partied till the place closed at 4am.  Not that I blame anyone for partying with some ladies just seems like a poor time to decide to do this with all his image issues.
