I’d have no issue if Ruggs was the pick at 12 and the first WR off the board. Jeudy is as polished as they come but you can’t teach Ruggs speed. And when people see 4.2 speed it’s an automatic stereotype “I don’t want a super fast guy I want a real WR”. Ruggs isn’t DHB. He dropped three balls out of 115 targets. He’s a solid route runner, not the greatest, but pretty solid. And he’s aggressive with the ball in the air. How rare is it you get an aggressive 6’ (5’11” 3/4.... to be technical) 4.2 speed guy? While Jeudy and Lamb are neck and neck for a vast majority of you, my neck and neck has always been Jeudy and Ruggs. I’d still select Jeudy, but it’s not an easy decision.

StocktonSav Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 1 hour ago, BayRaider said: So here’s the talent we have, if Delpit is gone: CB AJ Terrell CB Jaylon Johnson CB Kristian Fulton CB Jeff Gladney 3T Ross Blacklock QB Jordan Love QB Justin Herbert LB Patrick Queen LB Kenneth Murray I feel if Love or Herbert are at 19, let alone both, that's an ideal trade back scenario for us and an opportunity to get an enhanced return. But for purposes of playing along with your hypothetical: I would go with Herbert. If there's an opportunity to draft a potential franchise qb in the back half of the 1st, you do it IMO. Regardless if there's an immediate need. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he slipped past the Dolphins (highly unlikely, but possible considering Tua wouldn’t meet Miami and they met with Love the final hour before lockdown) I don’t think he’d slip past the Chargers at 6. Their window is the next few years, and they can get into the playoffs with a quality backup. So even if Tua plays 12 games a year, he’s pretty valuable to the Chargers with how excellent he is.

He’ll still be sending teams medical records by multiple doctors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruggs was recorded running 24.3 MPH on an 81 yard TD against South Carolina last season which would've been an NFL record. I agree though, a lot of people see Rugg's speed and think he's Tedd Ginn, DeSean Jackson, or Will Fuller. I think he's much better as a route runner, especially underneath, than people are giving him credit for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam Newton's agent was able to get him a medical/physical done within a few hours of being a free agent to send to teams. I'm sure Tu'a camp will do something similar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BayRaider Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 I don’t think he’ll be there but would you guys pick Cam Akers at 80? Great back to spell Jacobs. Getting really underrated in the draft process, three down back. Even though we want him to, I doubt Mayock double dips at WR unless it’s pick 91 or later (perhaps Van Jefferson).

NYRaider Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Ashtyn Davis is quickly becoming my man crush in this class. Adding that range at FS would allow us to move Abram all around the field. Trade back at #19, get a young boundary CB, and Davis. We're cooking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
