Wagon Circler Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 There are two QB's I like very much in this draft who also had a great wide receiver to throw to. Riley Ferguson had Anthony Miller, a very polished wide receiver. Mason Rudolph had James Washington who is a very special talent. With all these early picks, wouldn't it be fun to give a rookie QB a great receiver he already knows. Passing game improved 50%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I would be ok with Rudolph, Washington, and Ateman! Ateman might end up being the better pro. He is a physical receiver that will win a lot of battles. Remember that name, a lot of people are overlooking him for some reason Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldTimer1960 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I think that what will be required to move up for a QB will eat in to the ability to take a WR. The defense needs too many reinforcements to not address that with multiple early picks - unless they dive into FA for more help than I expect them to go after.

Remember that name, a lot of people are overlooking him for some reason I like him too, but his hands measured out to be relatively small and now people are going back and noticing that he double-caught a lot of balls this year. I'm kinda intrigued with Washington; he has a weird build. Only a little under 5'11" but his wingspan is the same as Ateman's and his hands are pretty large; curious to see how he tests at the combine/how his routes look. He's generally considered to be a raw route runner who's more smooth rather than explosive athletically. I'm not convinced any of the 3 OKST guys will be taken before the 3rd round.

corta765 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I get the excitement with having a QB/WR paired together and that potential. However it is just a pipe dream, the only instance of this ever happening that kind of worked was Luck with Coby Fleener and even that died once Fleener went to NOLA. As another poster said the cost to get a QB will probably eat your ammunition to draft a WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsredneck1 Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 rudolph and washington sounds good, but so does mayfield and finley....peterman and jones a bit more realistic... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overlooked somewhat due to the WR that was across the field from them in college ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fadingpain Posted January 24, 2018 Share Posted January 24, 2018 With the right QB, it shouldn't matter too much who the WRs are. Ask Tom Brady; he's gone through a whole bunch of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
