Ok so what value do you think we'd fetch for trading down a couple of spots? And would that value make it worthwhile going Smith over Chase?

Personally I think from a talent perspective they’re closer than one might think. If the drop off isn’t that steep, a trade down will definitely be worth it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Howie is making the pick? I'd put good money on the other guy being the stud and Howie's pick being a dud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philafan4o8 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 If it was up to Howie, he would select Bateman from Minnesota as the first WR because he has record high character and is a great guy in the locker room. He might edge out Whiteside when it comes to cheering in sweatpants on the sideline. No knock on Bateman. I'm sure he will be a solid WR but he is not in the same stratosphere as Chase and Smith.

For what it’s worth; if he would have come out in april, he’d be my No.1 receiver. He’s better than Jeudy, Ruggs, Lamp and Jefferson IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean he would have been your #2 receiver ahead of Jeudy, Ruggs, Lamp and Jefferson but behind Reagor. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting last season and during this season, I have been trending this way. I will say that Chase is definitely not in a different league than Smith. This is a very close conversation. Chase terrorized top corners last year but what Smith did to Stingley of LSU (true freshman but best CB in CFB imo) was outright criminal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoconoDon Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Smith has had a really good season. The only issue I have with him is that 175 lb. frame makes me wonder if he'' be durable enough for the NFL. Otherwise, he's very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
