Wouldn't be the first player to get depressed when the transition to the pro game was tougher than expected. There were no reports anywhere of character issues pre-draft. The character issues started to surface during training camp of his rookie year. The Eagles put next to no pre-draft work into Dillard prior to drafting him. He started to drop like a rock in the draft for a reason, that reason apparent to the teams that did their homework on him but not the Eagles at the time. An absolute disaster of a move by Roseman.

What did Smith due to Jaycee Horn, the best ras corner of all time? He beat his ass What did Smith do to literally every single corner he went up against? If we pass on him because he's skinny I will have 0 hope for this team I'm the analytics and athletic guy, and even I can see for DeVonta Smith it's totally irrelevant TATE before the draft: "Smith isn't even 170lb, no way he would survive in the NFL. Todd Pinkston 2.0. Pass" TATE after Smith becomes a star: "The guy dominated the most psychical conference in the country, he destroyed every defense he played against, why would you doubt his physicality" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No clear cut winner, just great players going against each other. Smith without a doubt has a knack for making great catches and making them look easy. He's a willing blocker. Still, that frame just scares the crap out of me. It's just my opinion. I really think the next tier WR group is just as solid and they all have explosive traits. The more I watch Rashod Bateman the more I really like his game. He's a guy who was listed at 6-2 210 but is "only" 6-0 190. He's smooth, a hands catcher and he just separates from guys. Really fun player to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Sin Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 I still think Smith ends up best WO of the first rd picks . as for Collins adding weight , apparently some teams see him playing edge , which I can see , or 34 olb , I don’t see him in a 43 as a backer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're also terrified to draft him. I'm really, really hoping he goes in the top 11 so we don't have to make that decision. Smith makes the most sense for a win now team, he's NFL ready from the get-go, and if your window is 2-3 years, you're not as concerned about long-term durability.

We can talk all we want about Smith dominating the SEC at 166. Chase dominated the SEC when he was 19. That's crazy to think about. I think Chase is the top dog out of this draft and will be the best based off of his measurables and game tape. I'm 100% on board with going defense in round 1 and a WR at 37. As far as Collins goes. 270 is nuts. If he bulks up to play edge I think that's a mistake. He's so good in coverage you'd be taking away from his game. Maybe he doesn't want to cover in the NFL? Who knows. It's like the opposite of Chris Gocong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's always a fluid situation. And in this draft, those later round picks are an opportunity to grab high upside guys that would normally drop to the UDFA market. I think it's more about the ability to target a couple dozen guys on the third day, and to move up and down and grab as many as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
