Wouldn’t surprise me at all if he has a very DK-like slide to the 50-65 area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJB Posted February 20, 2020 Share Posted February 20, 2020 Shenault, has the lowest YPC vs AP-ranked teams of the top 38 draft eligible WRs at 8.7 ypc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dkollidas Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I really really liked him. I do believe he won’t go until 3rd round. As the draft comes closer, the stock of others combined with his medical will push him further and further down boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hapless Bills Fan Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 1 hour ago, YoloinOhio said: So earlier, it was reported that Shenault has osteitis pubis and did not require surgery. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/28686020/colorado-wr-laviska-shenault-need-surgery-nagging-injury https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osteitis_pubis Until recently, there was no specific treatment for osteitis pubis. To treat the pain and inflammation caused by osteitis pubis, antiinflammatory medication, stretching, and strengthening of the stabilizing muscles are often prescribed. In Argentina, Topol et al. have studied the use of glucose and lidocaine injections in 72 athletes with chronic groin/abdominal pain who had failed a conservative treatment trial. The treatment consisted of monthly injections to ligament attachments on the pubis. Their pain had lasted an average of 11 months, ranging from 3–60 months. The average number of treatments received was 3, ranging from 1–6. Their pain improved by 82%. Six athletes did not improve, and the remaining 66 returned to unrestricted sport in an average of 3 months.[4] Surgical intervention - such as wedge resection of the pubis symphysis - is sometimes attempted in severe cases,[5] but its success rate is not high, and the surgery itself may lead to later pelvic problems. Recent advances in the field of hip arthroscopy have introduced endoscopic resection of the ***** symphysis which has a potentially higher success rate with less complications[6]. Osteitis pubis, if not treated early and correctly, can more often than not end a sporting individual's career, or give them an uncertain playing future. Osteitis pubis is what Kolten Listenbee was diagnosed with, eventually having a second surgery to insert a metal plate which effectively ended his career. The problem is apparently that the bone actually erodes. VERY nervous about the news Shenault will now have surgery. Surgery for osteitis pubis is a different matter than a core muscle surgery. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Beane will definitely not draft him in the 1st round, he might even pass on him with our second pick and then trade back into the late 2nd round and get him if he is still on the board. something similar to what happened to DK Metcalf last year. I really want eithe Henry Ruggs or Klavon Chaisson in the 1st round. I hope one of them slips to us. Edited February 29, 2020 by wppete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ones that can heal and have no lasting affects like a broken bone. Others that have the ability to become lingering issues. The turf toe and torn labrum concern me. I haven’t done as much research on the ostetis pubis issue, but it too sounds like something that can reoccur. Shenault May go on to a 15 year career and be amazing. Or he could end up like Watkins. Watkins has always been a 2/3 wr with tons of play making ability but can’t put it all together for one reason or the other. Personally I am cheering for Laviskis. Kid has been through enough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel for the guy and hope for a full recovery and a long run in the NFL. Now, if he’s drafted by the Patriots*, I wouldn’t mind a decade of bad hamstrings, but that’s different, right?

He was gonna get the ball and he only averaged like 11.8 ypc last year and 13 this Combine that with his not amazing top end speed and pedestrian numbers over 3 years and I can't see him in round 1 Even pre combine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Locomark Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I guess just trusting my own eyeball test, I just don't see the explosiveness and game speed necessary for Laviska to be a solid WR1 in the NFL. I think he dominated in a weak conference and will be a decent WR2 in the NFL. We already have that. We need more than a gadget player who can dominate Colorado State or Stanford. We need a bona fide #1. We must hit a homerun on whatever WR we pick, not just get a "value" pick or we will be a perennial wildcard team IMO. Truthfully I would take Higgins and even Jefferson before this kid. I bet Jefferson will not get past the Pats if Brady stays. All he does is make plays. That kid is a young Andre Reed sneaky good prospect. Higgins is very productive and has that length and stride that reminds me of Lofton. Now I am not saying either will have those careers, but I highly doubt either makes it past the first 15 picks of round 2. This is a league that rewards teams with the most playmakers on the most sides of the ball. We need to take a WR #1 unless we are absolutely in love with the DE prospects left. If we are waiting on round 2/3 for a WR then I would go with Mims from Baylor followed by the big kid from USC because I think they better prospects. Either way you watch the games on many of these guys and many look good and bad depending on opponent. I trust their Front Office, so now it is almost time to see what they do with FAs to see exactly what holes are truly left for the draft. We all know WR will be a draft need but everything else in round 1 is dependent on FA. The only way I take BPA this year is if the BPA is light years ahead of the WR1 on the board.

Ruggs in particular just puts this offense in a different category than it was last season. A true home run threat. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathja Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Watching him running out of the wildcat makes me want to compare him to Alvin Kamara rather than an NFL receiver. What makes Kamara so great is his ability to catch 80 balls out of the backfield. They even line him up in the slot or even out wide sometimes. I think Kamara ran a 4.53, which is pretty close to Laviska. He’s also thick at 5’11” 215 compared to Shenault’s 222 (albeit 6’2”) I think he can help an offense score points if he’s used in a variety of ways.

947 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 Shenault didn't look to be in great shape at the combine. He definitely isn't close to as lean as most of the WRs there, even sporting a little extra weight around the midsection. That said, I remember we all knocked Alshon Jeffery when he showed up with a belly, and he turned out ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Core muscle surgery will actually help him, maybe not in the draft, but when he’s back in the field. This is the surgery nick Bosa, Mitch Morse, and Cole Beasley had. Imo it’s better that he decided tj have it that continue to play through it. Theoretically He should be more explosive. I always thought he was a 2-3 round pick though and that’s fine.
