yeah i think i might be back all the way in on josh downs tbh - dude's been lost in the zay flowers hype because he's not quite as crafty a route runner right now - but he's just as explosive and plays just as big
dont see it with hyatt still that high - he was schemed into so much space and the amazing bama film really wasnt that amazing in the end (a bunch of busted coverages, mostly from safeties over-reacting to Tillman on in-breakers)
i love how Hyatt's able to gear up while arcing upfield and he's deadly from the slot for sure with space but i think he's a bit stiff and maybe limited somewhat in terms of what his route tree might look like - like right now he looks great at the slot-fade (really really good) but what else does he offer you at this point as a prospect - think right now he's a bit of a 1-trick pony... it's a good 1-trick but that's not enough for me to take him R1 tbh

Ok AT Perry makes sense. Hutchinson is like 6'1 or 6'2 right? He's not small but I would not describe his play style as big and physical. In my head I just have Hutchinson in the other class of guys

@rossihunter2 What round do you have Perry? For me 4-5
ive got the same grade on perry as rice - early 4th rounder
got Tillman and Johnston early R2
got Mingo (and Hutchinson) late R2/early R3
got Rice and Perry early R4
and then a bunch of bigger receivers after that
i mean hutchinson's a pretty similar size to QJ and i think he plays pretty physically...

Ok I have Rice just a little higher at mid to late 3rd. Perry I think is probably a 4th.

I will go review again
i get why people are higher than me on rice
he's got a bunch of tools but... he just doesnt separate on film
wouldnt surprise me if he became one of the better WRs in the class... but i dont see it right now

Yeah there was no reason he shouldn't be in the group with
QJ, JM, CT, RR, and Perry.

He’s the one
He's so unbelievably talented, and surprisingly thickly built for his height, meaning he can take some hits most 5'9" guys can't. If he was like two inches taller he would be the first WR taken, even over JSN.

He’s the one
textbook - 3 steps, sinking his hips so he's basically sitting in a chair - and he's breaking in the blink of an eye

With OBJ signed I am salivating for the draft. I got so many things going in my head.
What if we get Addison and you have this crazy quartet of interchangeable guys.
JSN...
QJ and the YAC
Hyatt or Palmer or Mims as deep threats
Mingo or Tillman or Hutchinson or Rice as big bodies
Flowers or Downs or Dell. Crazy twitchy guys.
Like it's just gonna be so awesome to let the board fall and see what we can add.

this is not what my board says in terms of grades but this is how i'd order the potential top guys as fits now in this WR corps:
JSN
Flowers
Downs
QJ
Addison
Tillman
Mims
Hyatt
Scott
Mingo
Hutchinson
and it improves my feelings on adding a guy like Rice or Palmer especially if it's day 3
but really... Flowers/Downs i think would be amazing additions to this group
