Either way, I'm sure they are using metrics that are similar because there's an obvious trend there. The trend of drafting good athletes to play an athletic sport. We're like so ahead of the curve guys. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaguely referred to as an "upper body injury" Alright....so it wasnt a concussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneTwoSixFive Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 (edited) thanks for the info @Sandy You (Leader) mentioned that you liked Burks, here is a counter-view (scroll down to his name). https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2954759-top-2022-nfl-draft-prospects-falling-down-boards Also, like a lot of bigger guys his route running isn't very precise and he played a lot of time out of the slot. While the Packers could do with a good slot guy, what they really need to invest in is an outside WR. Still, you like who you like and I've liked some guys with holes in their game too (in fact most later picks are in that category).

It's Gute's way. Even I don't fully agree sometimes, but that's the reality. He'll probably look at guys like Watson and Pickens and salivate because of their athletic scores, even though I think a guy like Olave is the better "wide receiver" on the field. Even Burks beats out Watson there, maybe Pickens too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you watch the games .. this guy doesn't get caught from behind. He's got what they call football speed on game days ;).

Sometimes it just makes it feel like this is what we always do after the fact and make it look like it's what we're all about.

squire12 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Regarding the RAS discussion. Would be interesting to see over the last 4-5 years how many/ where the 1st/2nd/3rd round picks slot on the RAS scores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
