2018 Draft Eligible WR Thread

Someone talk to me about Allen Lazard. Watching him through the first half of the bowl game he seems like a guy who might stick around for a while. Doesn’t seem like he has the separation ability to really become a top end receiver but the size and body control seem intriguing.

Reminds me of Golden Tate.  His teammate, Marcell Ateman is going to get some serious buzz as the process plays out.

I'm all about Ateman, 2nd-3rd round grade already and I am betting it goes to a high 2nd if I feel like he does well in the Combine drills.

Every time I watch him, I feel like he's slow. I'm sure that he'll time fine, but he's not a guy that I think plays fast. Love the size and I think that he uses it very well in the redzone, but I just haven't been super impressed from what I have seen thus far this year in terms of how he'll translate at the next level.

Does anybody has a take on Notre Dame WR Equanimeous St. Brown?

He and his 2 brothers will be probably pushed hard in our national media as the next big hopes for german related players in the NFL. I haven't seen much of him, yet and especially not this year but obviously his production went down, which should be a direct effect of Wimbuschs playstyle. How much will that hurt him?

St. Brown is not a 1st round pick in my opinion. He looks the part and runs a time that would indicate he'd be a superstar, but he just isn't as physical as his size would lead you to believe. And he's not so fast that he will run away from NFL DB's. I don't like big WR's that don't high point routinely. I was a big Devin Funchess hater for the same reason, but he turned out to be decent so I guess we'll see what happens with St. Brown. ESB is much faster than Funchess was btw, so that's not my player comp.

Oh, I also don't like how he isn't quick. He doesn't run great routes and I believe it is a result of stiff hips, which most of the big WR's suffer from. I've seen multiple people say he is their #1 WR in this class, but I don't know if he's in my top 5. I have no official list of prospects yet (lazy), but I would probably have him located outside of that top 5 at the moment.

Calvin Ridley and Deon Cain are my NFL draft favorites this year.
