2024 WR Draft Class

I was being a smart ass man, let’s be frank you or I, or anyone else on this board have no idea what the Bills are going to do. You have no idea if they will take Malachi Corley or any other perceived slot or small WR. I also have no clue if they are only targeting big WRs. At least I’ve been willing to discuss all options both WR and non WR at 28 instead of pigeonholing myself to 3 human beings like 90% of this board has done. 
 

I was one of the first who brought up both McConkey and Roman Wilson who will both go around ish the Bills pick only to be told nope impossible. I sat here and talked about DT being a legit possibility which it still is in round 1 when Jeremiah mocked Jerzahn Newton but no one wants to have an open mind because it’s Brian Thomas, AD Mitchell or Xavier Legette or bust on this board 
 

I understand your thoughts on DT but the big issue is there aren't many great 1 tech projects or NT in this year's draft. The 3 DL id be interested at pick 28 are Newton and Darius Robinson are definitely guys id look at. Yet admit the 3 WRs you mention appeal to me as well. Ultimately if go by value based drafting I'd prob take DL in the first and wait on WR as think can find quality WRs later and feel they can be developing wheras big guys rely a lot more on natural talent/scheme fit.

If the Vikings trade up to 4 or 5 and take a QB, perhaps NYG is willing to move out of 6?

 

28, 60, 4th, 2025 1st & 3rd ? 

 

select Malik Nabers 

 

I’m at the point my preferred WR’s are

 

Nabers, MHJ, Odunze, BTJ 

I want a top WR prospect but the whole thing about this class is how deep WR is so trading up is likely poor value, even with how good the top 3 are projected to be.

 

Much likelier imho that we trade up once again ahead of the Cowboys if a WR we really like is there at 23. (We’ll see who has that pick by Draft weekend, but seeming unlikely it will remain the Vikings.)

 

Maybe we jump the Jaguars up to 16 with Seattle but even that price is likely too steep for a GM who seems hell bent on fielding a younger cost-controlled team.

I get the need for a bigger WR. I also think there is very little chance that Brian Thomas and AD Mitchell are on the board when the Bills pick. I also think that the Bills not getting a 3rd round comp pick is going to hinder the possibility of trading up. 
 

That leaves Legette and even Gunner , who is a huge fan of him had readily admitted people in the industry don’t see him as a 1st rounder even tho he does. I see him as a late round 2 guy but had him going 43 in my latest mock.  I just don’t think the 3 guys people constantly talk about are truly feasible options

I think Nabers is an exceptional talent. He might go before MHJ. But this year's first and second, and a fourth, and next year's first and third? That is simply an impossible price to pay. (Just citing the cost speculated by the fella you are responding to.) If you think Thomas is going to grow into WR1, you could try and pay the price to move up to #16. Anything more expensive is reckless and irresponsible.

I'm a Legette fan. He's a borderline 1st Rounder in my eyes and wouldn't mind taking him at 28 pending what DL are left on the board. That said I see it's a good draft for WRs and if get one later am okay but to me they have to have size (see 6'1 or taller and 190 lbs or more)  and (speed) 4.55 been talking up Cornelius Johnson as much as I can as think he's a sleeper pick if can get him in Round 4.

I get that in terms of talent, but my point is we need a guy who is a boundary receiver first, and I hope they will prioritize that over a "jack of all trades" who isn't going make us better at WR2.  I'd rather have a very good to great boundary receiver than a guy who is pretty good at several things but not great at any one of them (which is the type of guy we seem to have brought in in the last several years.)

I’ve always stated it’s a good year to get 2 WRs and agree we need some sort of size component with one of them.  A guy that I really like as a big WR to take late is: 

 

JT Clarke WR UTSA- Dude is super talented at give or take 6’2 215. The reason why he won’t go is he’s a medical guy. 2 torn ACLs and an ankle will ward off a lot of teams but I really like him if he can bounce back. Take a look he’s literally not found on a lot of boards because he didn’t play at all in 2023 

 

I also like the Janke(pronounced Yawnke) twins from SDSU but they have yet to test so I don’t want to put my stamp on them. They will on Wednesday

Ceedee Lamb and Justin Jefferson are probably the best slot WRs in the league. Meaning they can line up anywhere.

Yea I watched his game against UB. I wasn’t surprised when he tested at 6’1. He was listed at 6’3 in the program and I was like no way at the game. 
 

He has good body control and he’s a very good hands catcher. He doesn’t really separate a ton from guys granted it was against an FBS team but he adjusts well to throws. I was disappointed in his height measurement as well as his slower time.He has really good other testing numbers but I didn’t see that explosion much like with AD Mitchell when you watch his tape.   I think he could be a good boundary possession receiver with time. Would look best in a west coast system imo

He is certainly intriguing. I see him as a swing for the fences pick. Could blow up in our face, could be the 3rd or 4th best WR in the class.

 

I am team "whomever can be fill our X position within 2 years" guy, whether that's a big body guy or a great route runner (or both), unless a stud pass rusher or 3T falls way down to us.

That helped increase my excitement about Coleman!  The comments about stepping on the toes was interesting, so many people were talking about Coleman's lack of separation and this analysis was stating it was by design.  And with the low drop rate seemed like it worked well.

 

If Coleman and Legette are both there, I can see Beane dropping back because either of them seem like great fits.

A FEW years older than the other WR's? There isn't a Top WR in this Draft he's a full 3 years older than. By the time the Draft rolls around there's going to be people saying he's 30.

 

Sure, after spending 5 years in College and some coming out after 3, there's a total of 4 WR's in my Top 22 guys that he's over 2 years older than. And of those 4, there isn't one he's even 2 and 1/2 years older than.

 

Legette isn't even the 1st, 2nd, or 3rd oldest amongst my Top 22 WR's in this Draft. Ricky Pearsall, Jamari Thrash, and Cornelius Johnson are older than Xavier Legette.

 

Roman Wilson, Devontez Walker, Luke McCaffrey, and Jermaine Burton are under 6 months younger than Legette. Hell, everyone's favorite WR Ladd McConkey isn't even a full 10 months younger than he is.

 

Yet when people talk of Pearsall, McConkey, Wilson, and others - their age is never brought up or looked at as a concern. But with Legette, he's considered *ancient*. If Legette's age is SUCH an issue, so should it be a concern mentioned for favorites like Pearsall, Wilson, and McConkey.

 

Date of Birth:

 

Ricky Pearsall - 9/9/00

Cornelius Johnson - 11/29/00

Jamari Thrash - 12/19/00

Xavier Legette -  1/29/01

Luke McCaffrey - 4/2/01

Roman Wilson - 6/19/01

Devontez Walker - 6/19/01

Jalen McMillan - 12/7/01

Javon Baker - 2/18/02

Brendan Rice - 3/18/02

Malachi Corley - 3/21/02

Ja'Lynn Polk - 4/11/02

Rome Odunze - 6/3/02

Marvin Harrison Jr. - 8/11/02

Adonai Mitchell - 10/8/02

Charlie Campbell is supposedly pretty plugged in. His latest mock has the top 3 all gone by pick 6. 

Then it's a long wait. The next WR is at #28. It's not what I would do. He has the Bills taking Worthy as WR4.

Thomas goes #31 to the Niners, and KC takes Mitchell. I would not be happy with that, but at least it isn't DL.

Those are not his only concerns...just to name a few...

• He is more of a strider, so takes longer to get up to his top speeds and mostly in straight lines  
• He doesn't have great acceleration or burst, concerns it will limit his effectiveness at all 3 phases and make him more of a deep ball specialist
• Struggles with press coverage
• Isn't a polished route runner and may be limited to more of a downfield WR than a true WR1 who can attack all 3 phases of the defen

Is Leggette an intriguing prospect...Yes.  But, of anyone we can take at 28, he has probably the most risk with the lowest floor.  With how deep the first 10-11 WRs are in this draft, I think Leggette is most likely going to go in the 2nd, which is where I would prefer to take him.

You know you can do this with anyone right?

 

Adonai Mitchell:

 

- Intensity can fluctuate from game to game.

- Allows smaller players into his space to contest catches.

- Cradle-catcher who fights football when catching with hands.

- Needs to keep routes on time with better efficiency and finish.

- Doesn’t play with aggression or sustain when asked to run block.

 

Ladd McConkey:

 

- Modest play strength could create issues in beating press.

- Limited production in 2023 due to back and ankle injuries.

- Alarming number of deep ball-tracking drops in 2022.

- Average acceleration driving through route stems.

 

Xavier Worthy: 

 

- Thin and lacking functional strength to fight through press.

- Needs to improve efficiency and quickness getting off the ball.

- Lack of hand strength gets him bullied on contested catches.

- Takes reps off when he’s not expecting the throw to come his way.

- Fails to adjust his speed to ball placement consistently enough.

 

Brian Thomas Jr.:

 

- Needs to pick up his route pace and salesmanship as a pro.

- Will battle occasional focus drops.

- Can avoid catch contact by working back to the throw.

- Fast but possesses average run-after-catch talent.

- Might need to ramp up physicality against clingy coverage.

LOL...then you can say the 20th ranked WR is as safe as the 3rd ranked WR because they all have pros and cons.  I am not saying Legette is the only one with a pros and cons list, every player in NFL history has that.  So, no...you can't actually because each prospect is different, as are their pros and cons...so a blanket statement like you just made isn't relevant in comparing the players.  The actual strengths and weaknesses of each player need to be individually considered in how you rank/grade said player.  

 

The ones around Legette specifically concern me.  We are talking about an heir to Diggs...Diggs is a dawg...he is a threat at all 3 phases of the field, including for multiple years was one of the best deep ball and contested catch WR's in the NFL.  Legette however has a lot of the same concerns that plagued Gabe Davis with limited route tree, struggles with press coverage, more of a strider making his best trait a deep ball threat.  I want a true WR1 out of this draft that will be the heir Diggs as WR1 as early as potentially next year.  

 

So sorry, no disrespect, but don't dismiss my concerns around Legette as "you can do that with everyone" because that just has nothing to do with what I am concerned about with him vs other players we could take.  

 

I won't be mad if we take Legette, he is an intriguing prospect, but doesn't change the fact his specific concerns are ones that I think make him a bit riskier than others.

I always enjoy when different stat trackers cite the same statistic with completely different numbers. Warren Sharp has Legette at 4.0 YPRR this past season while PFF has him at 3.2 (which is still very good, but merely 8th in the class instead of 1st). He was also, as you could probably guess based on his numbers the prior season, dead last in YPRR that year.

against man coverage 4.0 is the claim

 

I know some of his backstory. Both of his parents died before he finished high school. He’s had a tough road.

 

I heard a clip of a South Carolina reporter/journalist rave about how Legette got so good because of his insane work ethic in the offseason.

Oh duh lol I was reading the wrong part of the chart. 4.0 still isn't #1 in the class though (but it is #2). Anthony Gould was at 4.3 this year.

That's what Kincaid and Shakir are for. Those two (and Diggs, who is good against basically any coverage) are great against the zone. Aside from Diggs, we don't really have anyone that excels against man coverage (Samuel theoretically has the skills to be but simply hasn't done it to this point in his career).

McConkey's numbers from Georgia pro day per The Athletic:

 

Georgia’s event this year was highlighted by standout WR Ladd McConkey’s agility scores. McConkey ran a reported 3.97-second short shuttle with a 6.72 three-cone. Both are elite times, particularly the short shuttle, which would have been the top time across all positions at this year’s combine.

McConkey’s tape shows his terrific short-area quicks. It also shows that he has great speed, which he confirmed with a 4.39 40 at the combine.

Anyone else feel like we won’t be getting a pick with a 1st round grade at 28, and that the best option would be to trade back, allowing us to get WR, DE and DT?

Thomas, Mitchell and Legette have size and speed. Franklin/Coleman either thinner or slower and as result perceived less than ideal. Now I could argue Cornelius Johnson, Bub Means, De'Corian Clark fit this mold of boundary WRs but may not be as NFL ready as the first 3.
