  1. 1. Whose got better wideouts



Recommended Posts

I give a lot of credit to guys who have done it against NFL defenses, but I think the LSU guys may have a higher ceiling. 

 

The good news is, get ONE top flight guy and this whole deal looks very different.

Only one in four 1st round draft pick NFL receivers in this breakdown from 2000-2014 translate to great pros.

 

It's basically one per year.  Check it out

Exactly this. While yes they played great in college, that's just it. Until they prove anything in the NFL it's silly to even consider. With that said, even if  they don't turn out amazing, they would still have a shot for our #2. We really need a upgrade badly.

not even close. jamarr chase alone is worth our entire wr corps. if you are throwing in jefferson and co., that is just icing.

 

and they played 7 top 10 teams this year. only knock on lsu wrs is that they did not go against db university?

Wait till the LSU WRs have to go up against NFL CBs.  Wait till the LSU WRs have to recognize NFL defenses in the blink of an eye, and make route adjustments.  I'm not saying they can't do that, I'm saying that until they show what they can do against NFL competition, this is a silly comparison.

So you are saying all we have to do is get the one? 25% chance we pick the right guy? Ok!

And yet there were five WRs taken in second and early third (and who the Bills passed on) just this past year who appear to be headed for stardom.  It’s not that hard.

The people talking about Brown and Beasley fail to mention that both guys are no better than #3 WR's in this league.  

Change that from DuDe to Dolt.  John Brown is more than a #3

Allen and LSU's WRs 

 

or

 

Burrow and Buffalo's WR's?

?

 

the Burrow thing is insane to me.  He was ok last year and just had one of the greatest seasons in college football history.  Allen didn’t have half of the year he had in the MWC.  That said, Burrow is surrounded by elite college talent.   But man is he really accurate.  Allen is far more physically talented but I won’t be shocked if Burrow is already a better passer as a rookie.  
 

and just cause guys are good in college doesn’t mean they will be in the pros.  Beasley will end up having a better career than the majority of guys drafted this year.  But yeah on paper, the LSU and Bama receivers are in insane.

I do not usually play along on the college players being better than pros questions, (i.e.could LSU beat the Bengals) but these receivers are already close enough to the draft to see their NFL projections and their ceilings are all pretty high. So I voted yes, they are better, although Brown and Beasley have already proved it at the next level, which is saying a lot.

John Brown Can’t do all this.     This man chase is a bad bad man.

This shows the improvement the Bills have made.  Rather than asking if a college team can beat the Bills, it is being asked if a college position group is better.

 

WR seems to be the hardest to project success from college to NFL.  High picks flame out, UDFA flourish.  While the LSU receivers look good, history would indicate 1 or 2 will not make it.

I wish they would have did a SORT - YEAR - YARDS before putting that on there.

Brown might be, and I really mean might be, at best, a good number two receiver. In no way is he a number one receiver despite the night season he had. He disappears and games too often and he is not capable of putting the team on his back like a true number one should be able to do.

you think that’s possible ?   the guy looks pretty flawless, gonna win in time for sure 

 

The way that Paul Brown runs that team, much like the way Ralph ran the Bills (but even worse ?), I dont doubt they could ruin even the greatest players.

 

Serious question: Do you think if the Bills had drafted Brady in 2000, with the state of the franchise, he still would have gone on to be the GOAT?

I wouldn't mind a 1 in 4 chance to get a "great" NFL WR on the roster.  Beats having zero on the roster year after year after...

He’s not “at best a good #2”.  He IS a good #2
