Ialone Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 6'3" Tall, 4.38 - 40 with a wide catch radius. Displays some physicality (almost a little too much) in creating separation, uses his body to high point the ball, with good physical body control... https://www.nfl.com/prospects/denzel-mims?id=32194d49-4d62-4399-5aee-b92ce1fc40e6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSEagle Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 He seems a little mentally fragile, but he is a hell of a talent. I do think it's being overblown some, but I have pause that he was "scared" to be in Philly. Want no part of him at 21, but a trade down to snag him? Sure.

I eval players pre combine. I dont let the combine change my view on a player. The combine etc is fun to watch, its good to kill time till the draft but it does not change the projections for me. He was a 2nd/3rd round talent pre combine. Now could it move him into the late first, sure, ok I will bite. But I don't think hes 21 talent. Id rather take a bunch of others over him or trade back at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say we trade back to...28 (random number) and pick up like a third. Mims is there, do you pull the trigger? I might, but Higgins is probably sitting there as well.

Walkdawalk Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I don't see him being scared of a city as a big deal...if you grow up in a small rural community despite the belief not everyone is instantly drawn to city life. I went from a small farming town to a city and yeah I must admit i was a bit scared at first but grew to love it. If he has the talent then he deserves to be picked not gonna let something stupid like that put me off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming from a smaller town, city life is much different. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerolithe_Lion Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 I’m a fan of this prospect, would be glorious if we got him in the second AND one to the premier guys in the first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBorBust Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Mike Lombardi said today that many teams love Mims. "Mims in the 1st round” is one of his favorite betting props. He was Baylor’s go-to guy whenever they needed a play. If the Eagles do go WR, this is who I hope they get. I like him a lot more than Jefferson. EDIT: I just read that "scary people” nonsense. Now I’m not so sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcoffee Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 I'm sure he's regretting those comments big time. Makes him look like a pansy. He doesn't seem to play scared when it comes to physicality tho. He's a young kid from a small town, and guessing he hasn't been exposed to many environments. I'm good with him at 21.

They always trade back or trade up. expecting the same tomorrow so I don't see us at pick 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t want to get my hopes up, but my gut tells me Howie pulls off a trade up to land either Jeudy or Lamb. I prefer Lamb but have no clue who the Eagles would prefer.

Would you think TRADE BACK is favored over PICK AT 21. They only problem is that I don’t see any real reason for someone from 23-32 to trade up.

Could you see a team later in the round move up a ahead of NO to draft the QB Jordan Love? very possible. Never know what can happen, who slips, whos in love etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there are a lot of WR needy teams after our pick at #21, so if a team has a strong preference for the last guy in a tier they may make the jump.
