2. Benjamin

3. Austin S-J

4. Moncrief

Which decision was the hardest for you to make? Who are your favorites from the list above?

Bolded are my picks. Those without bold I'm indifferent due to lack of familiarity with either one or both of the prospects.

Favorites are ASJ, KB, Matthews and Yancy.

Hardest? None. OBJ vs Cooks would have been tough.

[carpanfan96]

Cooks by the slightest of margins

Beckham

ASJ by another slight margin.

Sua-fio

Hardest one for me was ASJ.

[Ken]

Lee

Benjamin

ASJ

Matthews

Adams (Robinson is a bust IMO)

James

Bitonio

Fuller x2

Roby (better fit for us I think)

Hardest was ASJ over Amaro and KB over OBJ

4. Jordan Matthews vs. Dante Moncrief

8. Marcus Roberson vs. Kyle Fuller 

 

10. Xavier Su'a-Filo vs. David Yankey

 

Which decision was the hardest for you to make? Who are your favorites from the list above? 

 

 

1. Cooks because he didn't have the injuries Lee's had. I think Gettleman will favour Lee though, because of his size.

 

2. OBJ easily. Benjamin's was supposed to be the unpolished freak athlete. Well, he didn't look all that fast in the combine, so really, all you're getting is an unpolished possession receiver who wasn't even that feisty.  

 

3. Can I pick neither? Depends on ASJ's medical. Right now if I had to choose, Jace Amaro. I don't think he's worthy of a 1st round pick though.

 

4. Matthews. He's got a chance of being a 1st round pick, now that he ran that impressive 40. I don't like receivers who haven't posted 1000 yard seasons in college. Production is still, imo, the most important factor in drafting a receiver.

 

5. Robinson. Better acceleration and more dangerous after the catch.

 

8. Roberson. I saw Fuller get burned multiple times playing deep zone coverage. We seem to run quite a bit of that.

 

10. Yankey, becase he was an all-American LT in 2012. I thought he would be a clear BPA at 28, but I don't know how much his combine performance has hurt him.

[Double Trouble]

1. Lee by a good amount

2. OBJ

3. ASJ

4. Matthews

5. Robinson

8. Fuller

9. Purifoy

10. Sua'Filo (going to be a stud)

10. Xavier Su'a-Filo vs. David Yankey

 

Which decision was the hardest for you to make? Who are your favorites from the list above? 

 

 

1. Not sold on either, but I'd go with Lee. Lee grades out as an outside WR, and he has the added size which will help when Cam throws it up a little high. Cook is a slot WR and we don't have a 2, or may be even a 1.

 

2. Benjamin is my choice. He is a big match up problem for opposing DBs and he grades out as an outside WR. Beckham is an inside guy.

 

3. Jenkins is my choice here, as Amaro doesn't excite me as much at the NFL level.

 

4. I honestly can't decide. Either would be fantastic, though I like Matthews larger hand size and wingspan.

 

5. Hard choice, but I'd go with Adams because he's more proven in college. They both feel very similar.

 

6. James is the easy choice for me here.

 

7. Bitonio, really close though.

 

8. I think Greg Robinson is the better choice because he grades out as a better immediate starter.

 

9. Going Roby because I think he better translates to the NFL.

 

10. Hard to decide but I'll go Yankey.

The Kelvin Benjamin vs. Odell Beckham Jr. pick was tough. I see the allure of each guy. Took the guy with bigger upside.

 

I love Brandin Cooks and Kyle Fuller. I think they will both be day 1 contributors and play at a high level for many years.

2. Kelvin Benjamin vs. Odell Beckham Jr.

3. Austin S-J vs. Jace Amaro

4. Jordan Matthews vs. Dante Moncrief

5. Davante Adams vs. Allen Robinson

6. Jack Mewhort vs. JuWaun James

7. James Hurst vs. Joe Bitonio

8. Marcus Roberson vs. Kyle Fuller

9. Loucheiz Purifoy vs. Bradley Roby

10. Xavier Su'a-Filo vs. David Yankey

Which decision was the hardest for you to make? Who are your favorites from the list above?

1. Cooks -feisty and pound for pound the best WR in the draft

2. Benjamin -athletic freak from a pro style offense

3. Amaro -solid and polished in-line hogger

4. Matthews -high character with all the measurables

5. Adams -better hands and more focused

6. Mewhort -team captain and high IQ can anchor a balanced pro team

Edit. Mewhort is a LT, James a RT. I do like James, great personality but he needs to build his muscle and I wonder how serious he is in the weight room. More of a project and not likely to make the transition to LT which is where Cam is gonna need a no-nonsense, weight room junkie with an IQ to match

7. Hurst -could be a steal if he falls to the 4th and I think we draft him and thank our lucky stars. Having to rehab a broken leg will put him heavily in the weight room which will cement his mindset and build on an already strong work ethic. Broken legs are stronger after they heal, (if they heal properly,) and definitely will be a big character building experience.

Hardest choice was Amaro because I didn't get to see ASJ in combines. Amaro is a great blocking TE who can still get downfield for a big play. They are both great and I wouldn't be mad with either at #28

Favorite is Benjamin and working with Proehl and Cam is the best shot at becoming an elite #1 receiver who is so physically imposing inside and out. A serious red zone threat and high riser that can manhandle secondaries. He shined on the biggest stage and a born champion and winner. Played with a future franchise QB on a balanced team and was the go-to guy. What's not to like?

[Ruff]

1. Brandin Cooks

I think Cooks is the better all around player, as far as receivers go. Lee scares me to death. Not only does he have an injury history, he played for a toxic team in LA, and we all know how USC receivers end up.

 

2. Kelvin Benjamin

 

3. Jace Amaro

 

4. Jordan Matthews

 

5. Davante Adams

 

6. Jack Mewhort 

 

7. Joe Bitonio

 

8. Kyle Fuller 

 

9. Bradley Roby

 

10. Xavier Su'a-Filo

 

Which decision was the hardest for you to make? Who are your favorites from the list above? 

 

My favorites are Matthews, Su'a-Filo, and Davante Adams. I think those three guys will have an immediate impact in the NFL, at a very, very high level, and will continue to produce as their careers progress.

 

The hardest decision for me has to be Hurst vs. Bitonio. I like Hurst a lot. He produced against Clowney/Beasley, and showed up all season at a very high level. Bitonio is incredible, but he played against lesser talent. However, I think the leg break, and missing these couple months of training, sets Bitonio ahead in the short-term, which is more than enough for me to take him over Hurst because I believe both players have similar upside.
