I really like Worthy as a prospect yet still share the real concern of whether he can beat press coverage on the outside. That’s not why you draft him though. You draft him for elite explosiveness that should result in big plays and opposing defenses having to keep their safeties back. Still, I am very on board with Worthy at 28 combined with either trading for a vet or drafting at 60/trading up from 128/drafting at 128 another bigger outside WR prospect (Javon Baker?) to pair with Worthy. Does the big outside boundary press coverage beating WR prospect have to come in the 1st round? I think not. We took Gabe Davis in the 4th.

I think his play weight is going to be around 175 and he will still have elite speed and quickness

Yes. Years of production. Elite ball tracking. Plays bigger than his listed size. Good route runner. I did not like him breaking the 40 record because I liked him as a prospect pre-Combine and assumed people would then be asking your very question. I also buy that he cut down to 165 lbs just so he could break that record but usually plays closer to 175.

At least they’re not another arena football jersey

What an unfortunate variation of the Irish surname, McConaghy.

Their throwbacks look so much better than this Chargers/Bengals/Arena League lovechild.

Dude is begging other teams to take him ahead of the Panthers and I don’t blame him

Trades: - 28 & 144 to SF for 31 & 63 - 63 & 163 to ARI for 66 & 104 - 104, 160, & 204 to GB for 91 - 128, 133, & 200 to CIN for 115 & 149 31. Xavier Worthy - WR - Texas 60. Adisa Isaac - DE - Penn State 66. Ja’Lynn Polk - WR - Washington 91. Michael Hall, Jr. - DT - Ohio State 115. Dadrion Taylor-Demerson - S - Texas Tech 149. Javon Baker - WR - UCF 248. Kimani Vidal - HB - Troy Only regret is not adding to the OL. Otherwise, WR room is stocked, some nice pieces added to the DL, and we get decent prospects at S and HB.

Not sure Baker makes it to the 4th round, but I would be very happy with a Worthy/Baker double-dip.

I think I went to high school with him and Mike Wazowski

Agreed. I think they want a WR room full of guys who can line up anywhere.

Eli did nothing with the Chargers before the Giants

First thought: Dude is going to have neck problems using a football pillow like that. Second thought: Thank goodness they did not use this pose for Reid and his nuggies.

The cap does not seem to be the only factor that went into parting ways with Diggs imho

Hope not especially if they go the way of other teams recently who look like they play in arena football leagues. I know Zubaz won’t happen but hey a fan can dream and at least they would be unique.

Wishlist in order: 1. Red 90s helmets 2. White standing buffalo 3. Dare I suggest… something zubaz?

Just switched to Jenkins as Kinchens seems a longshot

Jenkins is probably the value but I went Kinchens here

Are there reports Seattle wants to move him?

Their true needs appear to be WR, DE, and S. Likeliest imho is a WR in round one after a modest trade up or at 28, then a DE or BPA at 60, before addressing S in round 4. Would not mind a S like Bullard if there at 60 and then a DE like Kamara if there in round 4. But who knows, maybe Beane has that Tre White money coming in June reserved for a vet S or DE with whom he already has a handshake deal…

Probably brought on to help eat all that Diggs cap space

So many takes, so little time. The trade is a good move overall and netted good return given the contract situation, the unsettled relationship, and compared with other recent trades of WRs around the league. The bad move was the extension that made this trade of an albatross necessary. Rather Beane grab a lifeboat than go down with the ship. Still, we are not rebuilding, just being smart and objective about bad contracts. Diggs gave us some great entertainment and production, but the sun is setting on his career. The Bills showed last season down the stretch that he is replaceable. I wonder how little value we could give up to get in position for one of the big 3 WRs in this draft. Also, yes, the money freed up next year can be used for a new deal if we were to trade for a WR - just need to structure the hits that way.

Diggs apparently was not a certain thing

We are down one Bates this offseason
