I think they can get Franklin at 60, if they want him. That would be both receivers that I hoped they would not draft.

Who loves the pick? I heard “polite applause “.

Mathew Bove is an expert?

That was a Looong time ago when defenses could maul receivers. Rules are different now.

Cupp can run routes and get open.

Coaches don’t make you faster or quicker.

I understand and I’ll be the first to admit I am not qualified to critique their picks, but I can watch games and see that he is almost never open.

If you want a back to the basket post player, Coleman is the man.

Several here have watched a lot more than highlights and he can’t get open.

This really is inexplicable. They said they wanted explosive players with RAC and they took a guy who can’t get open and can’t run away from anyone. For context, Chop Robinson (DE) is considerably faster.

Exceptionally disappointing.

Trade down please.

For what? He is worth more to the Bills as raw hope that he improves than he is in trade.

Well, of course I’ll hope he is great if they take him - I just don’t see the upside.

The young age is a plus, I just don’t know how he gets any quicker than he is.

It’s not 40 time, it’s getting open and Coleman doesn’t do that.

Bolden played when DBs were allowed to rough up WR. I don’t think big guys like that are as valuable now with rules changes.

Ok - I admit that I was just arguing that how a guy is rated coming out of HS is irrelevant. I still am not enamored by Franklin. I think if you look at recent analyst lists, they have dropped Franklin a lot from where he was 2 months ago - same for Coleman. I think that’s because they have heard from teams that they don’t value them that highly. I, of course, don’t know what they will do and I watch game tape, highlights and read voraciously, but that doesn’t make me qualified!

Could probably trade from 33 down to 45 and still take Coleman.

I have and he is never open.

Yes, hopefully they learned that big slow receivers don’t make it in the NFL.

I don’t think Franklin, Polk or Coleman should be considered early in round 2.

I would strongly prefer not to trade 2025 picks at a discount, though obviously they might see it differently. If they got 36 and 40, I don’t think I could find 2 WR that I would want to double up on. I presume Mitchell is out of play based on the character/effort rumors (ad it we don’t know if true). What 2 WR would you want in that range?

I would like for them to trade down with Washington, if they get back decent value. I don’t see anyone at pick 33 who is “must have”.

Trying to guess who their guy would be. For as lauded as this receiver class is, I’m not terribly excited about the guys left.
