Yup haha I have no problem being an old man curmudgeon when it comes to this stuff. I’m also not a drinker since my college days which is about 15 years ago nowNothing wrong with that 👍

Just in general I don’t get draft hype. Like I’m just going to watch somebody read a list….very slowly.
I watch at home, but sitting on my couch is a lot different.
It has been rather funny going down this journey of NFL and Bills fandom with my non American born girlfriend the last few years. Some of these events get hard to explain. The draft and going to games looks like some sort of cult. Some of the in game events are even more hilarious. Touchdown! Wait, it's a flag. Ok it's on them! Touchdown! Wait, they're replaying it. Touchdown! "This is stupid Michael" ................I know honey.

I have zero interest in watching a draft in that manner. Being in the middle of downtown 2 miles away from a stage listening to a loudspeaker.
Back in the day sitting in the NYC auditorium would have been my speed . I’ll sit in my recliner

Calling his shot from 18

My good friend never says anything to me about our picks, but texted me right after our pick and was like you guys nailed it. He's an MSU grad that loves the Spartans. Said MSU basically rode him out of town. That he wanted to play basketball but the football regime wasn't supportive of it. You can see below he was on the Spartan basketball team. One of the elite programs in college basketball.
I say this from place of coordination and athleticism. If you have longer legs you can often struggle with agility, acceleration, quick twitch. Many even just higher levels of hand eye and general coordination.
You just don't see these concerns with Coleman. He is a fluid athlete. His top end speed might not be elite but his body control, hand eye coordination, and even agility are elite for a guy who is 6'4. Tee Higgins is a comp in some regards but he’s more athletic than Higgins.

Look at the 2 - 230 minute mark. That is not normal for a guy that is 6"4. It's abnormal athletic ability to have that body control and start and stop at that size.

People need to explore the relationship they have with speed. Gabe was our home run hitter with 4.54. Diggs was highly effective with deeper routes early in his time here. Most people aren't flying by DB's at the NFL level. What is the playing speed? Coleman has elite physical skills. Size and vertical. He has playing speed. He's not a guy that is all legs when he runs. He has very nice agility in and out of his breaks. Nacua ran a 4.57, he's far more athletic than Nacua. The NFL isn't only about speed. Josh has never had a true contested catch monster like this. It's going to be a blast watching those two in the red zone.

It would be a disadvantage to have more weight on your helmet. Players already know. I doubt we see it form many.

This will take all of one game and this forum will be drooling. We haven't had a WR like Coleman before. He's an elite athlete. Could have started for MSU basketball. Physical as all hell and actually quick for a strider. Elite vertical, hands. Flashed in every FSU game you watch. He stands out. We are lucky, couldn't be more excited. My closest friend, also a MSU grad said he was better than Plaxico and I believe it. Again, just watch a few FSU games. He always does something ridiculous.

I am traditionally against pure contested catch guys. I ended up seeing more from Coleman than I expected.
He was a great pick. He’s the only guy I wanted. He’s a former Spartan and I’m from Michigan.

When I watched his tape instead of reading reports and watching a single highlight video. That post was after my very first foray into the class. I spent an embarrassing amount of time watching tape of the top 8 or so guys.
Good to see you came around and I didn’t watch one tape of him at the time. Apparently you did and also felt strong enough to have an opinion 😂

I'm a tad nervous because I've been pumping up Coleman as a great pick, and now if he sucks I'm gonna look stupid. But man his size and competitiveness and hands just get me really excited. Allen is a gunslinger. He just got his guy he can launch the ball to downfield 1v1.
When did you come around to him? I remember exchanging posts with you about him in January.

I would call this ballsy, but it's probably better to call it stupid. Unless you know who they want and you think they will bust (which is a risky gamble) I don't know how you allow them to get who they want.

Really ballsy to do this. You almost need to win two picks now because after Mahomes if this pick hits it could haunt Beane

This draft just feels weird. I keep thinking he is about to talk.

I thought Williams profiled as close to Allen as anybody I have seen so far. I don’t see him being able to get to Josh’s level, but his ability to create outside of the script. His improvisation and playmaking will be rivaled by few. How can he perform within the confines of the play? I question that. He will be a guy that could have success early only to hit a funk once coordinators take away the basic things he wants to do.

If we do this, I hope we trade up again in the 2nd for Coleman or Legette or Polk. Pair the speedy small WR with the big bodied contested catch specialist. I don't care if it means we have barely any picks on day three and have to give up one of our 2nds next year. Get two physical studs that win in different ways and put them on the field with Josh Allen for the next 5+ years, and the rest will figure itself out.
Ya, I liked Coleman from the jump. Polk as we well and Legette is also coming on in my mind. Not a big fan of Worthy though. Hollywood Brown seems to be his comp. Brown isn't a bad player but I'm hopeful we can get more out of this pick especially if we trade up.

Nabers is the definition of explosiveness
He's nuts. His legs almost look like they're going so fast he loses control of his body at times. MHJ is elite, but Nabers is also a potential first year pro bowler. The separation tells you all you need to know. On his deep routes he's alone and it's not just speed. His route running tricks the DB in most cases and he's gone the second that happens.
