    I know everyone is down on him because of the trade but he’s going to be a very, very good player. When he played Bama, we could not stop him.

    The AJ trade aside... anyone know much about this guy? Any Arkansas fans?

    I’m an avid SEC watcher and outside of Williams he’s probably the most pro ready WR in the SEC

    A lot of people here wanted him before the AJ trade, including myself. I'm still happy we got him, curious to see what happens at 26, lots of options

    I admit, he's pretty good. His comparison is Deebo Samuel and AJ Brown. He's like a gadget player who can play all over the field IMO. I would've loved this pick had we got him at 26. He slipped big time due to his combine, but he was once considered easily top 15 pick. A RB playing WR.

    Because he's too expensive and he didn't want to be here anymore because of.. Feelings.

    Good luck, but good riddance.

    I don't think we should ever pay a WR 12% of the salary cap. That's just crazy. JRob said it himself, salaries are cyclical. It's a copycat league. You get a "hot hand" overvalued position, everyone overpays, then it comes back down to earth. It wasn't that long ago that RBs were making more money than WRs.

    He probably doesn't have speed AJ has. He's more similar to a guy like Mike Evans. Hopefully, he turns out something similar to him.

    We still need another WR. Preferably a burner.

    Did we work Burks out at the combine or have him as one of the visits? He clearly wasn't at the Senior Bowl.

    Mike Evans > AJ Brown
    And it's not close

    He’s definitely not an RB at WR. He’s 6’3 and mike 230. He had 1100 yards receiving last year.
