Getting Toon in the 4th is a steal

yeah i mean he was productive. so many times watching wisconsin and hoping they lost, i saw him make big plays to save them
above-average size. good hands. good adjusting to the ball. decent athlete. raw in terms of scheme, so i have no clue how he will translate.
solid value pick. safe pick to go with the risky hicks pick

I love love love this pick. With meachem gone there is a question mark at receiver and this guy is just so solid.

Some of you are crazy. With our WR situation this is a great pick for this late in the draft!

We need a WR to replace Meach blocking on the outside, but who do we use now to stretch the field like Meach did? We have Morgan who could be our burner, but plenty of plays we just had one WR on the field being Meach who either blocked or was used as a distraction running deep straight to stretch the field.

LOVE this pick.
Solid if not flashy in college. Good route runner for his size. Some bitchy arse people on here today.

Dude was solid for Wisconsin with a qb whos comparable to brees. He'll be a more than capable replacement for meachem. Don't see how this is a wasted pick.

I'm not jumping for joy but it's a solid pick that fills a need. I like it.

Strong arm. Good at reading defenses. Didn't say he was as good as Brees. Just comparable.

at least we won't have to deal with the spelling deficiencies around here
For the past few years i thought a free agent named Peyton Meechum would have been perfect
Toon
Hicks
hmm. who's good with 5 letters or less?
