Jeezla Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 (edited) For comparison Stay away from those 25+ Wonderlic WR's. Stanford grad and 29 wonderlic score JJ Arcega-Whiteside had problems learning the playbook basically all year.

It sounds to me like that's more of a J.J. issue than a Wonderlic issue. Makes one question if he put the effort in as a rookie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're always playing with fire with guys who made a living posting people up in college and winning contested catches. That risk jumps significant when the guy is 6'2" on the button and not freakishly long. It's always safer to pick guys who have separation skills unless the contested catch WR is both long (6'4+" with long arms) and freakishly dominant at it in college. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or McLaurin, who schooled everyone right in front of their scouting department's eyes at the Senior Bowl, who then ran a 4.3 and killed all the drills, while JJ sat out the combine. I bet JJ was a heck of an interview though. Edited April 18, 2020 by Jeezla 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can beat you with speed on the outside and bullies receivers with physicality. Shows nuance at the top of the route, but can get a lot better there. Huge upside. Projects very well as an upside player who can already contribute tons of value. Reagor. Plays faster (this one is especially subjective, but he came into the combine way too heavy. Has been clocked at 22.7 mph so I know he's very very fast). More dynamic after the catch. Anecdotally, I saw him beat Okudah's press and was very impressed by it. Similar leaping ability. Was held back by horrific quarterback play. He played a lot outside and won there. I have two big issues. I can't agree that Reagor has a high floor (we've already debated over speed). I also disagree with some of what you said about Mims. I don't think he's an elite contested catch guy. And he doesn't show nuance at the top of the route. He's not a polished route runner. He has a lot of the same issues you see from many guys in college. His route tempo can give hints to his depth. He doesn't plant and explode. He rolls into his cuts. He opens his hips prematurely because his footwork is all over the place. He gets beat up too easily by press coverage. I don't want this to make it seem like I don't like Mims. From the traits standpoint, he has it all, except explosive acceleration imo. He's long/strong and has flashed a willingness to use his size to create separation. He's a strider who can separate vertically. He has the quickness to run routes well. His game simply isn't polished. You're taking a risk, but if his game develops, you have a guy with the traits to be a force. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
