RD 5, Pick 150: WR Justin Shorter, Florida

He’s a big tough dude for sure just a little underwhelming because there were WRs on the board that could separate better than Shorter (Hutchison, Boutte, Perry, Washington). Hoping for the best here since the bills brought him in for a visit and private workout and seem to like him but in the back of mind I’m like man I wish they  gave this pick up for Hopkins lol

Nice 5th round pick.

 

From the videos provided in this thread, he looks capable for sure.  Of course, these are highlight videos, not bad play videos.

 

From what I saw - strong.  Good catch radius.  Quick after the catch.  And really important, knows where the sticks are - did a nice job getting open at the sticks for first downs.

 

Also seems to track the ball well.

 

Makes the roster, 3rd team to start and hopefully he works to move up the depth chart.

I forgot McKenzie is gone.

 

Yeah, he’s a lock.

I'm not gonna say he's a lock but the other 3 we have are Dezmon Patmon, Isaiah Coulter and KeeSean Johnson.  Not exactly players that I expect to come out and be productive.

We currently have 5 WR's that can be considered rosterable.  (Diggs, Davis, Shakir, Sherfield, Harty).

Plus a tight end and running back that could sit in the WR room. We could go 5 active and extra practice squad presence at the position

I don’t hate this….and I usually hate everything. I never liked the idea of smurfs with Josh’s skill set. There’s no room for error throwing to smurfs.


100%!

 

it’s an outdoor cold weather team, with wind, sleet,rain & snow! 

It’s taken almost a generation for OBD to finally catch up to me- get big men that provide jump ball huge targets for your huge QB!

 

No brainer.

Who is he active over?

 

Diggs

Davis

Hardy

Shakir

Sherfield

 

No chance he is active over those guys, but he could be active as a 6th WR if he proves special teams value and he has experience on ST.  That will be the ticket to his making the 53 and even more so to be active on Sundays.  If he isn't a starter on ST, he can still make the 53 given his size, but he will have a hard time being active without injuries.
