Sometimes I think they overhype guys just so they can comment on them "falling" in the draft and adding some drama.

With his smaller size and superb speed, he's gonna be great out of the slot which has proven to be a big part of the NFL recently.

well, they gotta talk about something... and this draft sucks as far as story lines go (and high profile players).

Maybe overhyped in terms of him being a top 10 pick at 5'-8" but he really is that good to me.

I think he'll have a Victor Cruz type of impact.

It'll be interesting to see if he falls to the Jets at 9. Can't wait for this to get started.

A team who trades up with buffalo. Buffalo can move back because they want a QB.

Swope has New England written all over him imo. Especially if they don't fully feel comfortable with Amendola.

He'd have a great career if he went to NE. Not sure why he's not been jumping up draft boards especially after running a 4.3 at the combine

this is weird. And what happened to Sanu was really messed up.

I disagree. I think he'd be a really good slot receiver. Wes Welker and DeSean Jackson are prime examples that you don't have to be a big, physical receiver to have success in the NFL.

No.

The Pats dont have enough draft picks to be drafting slot WRs

And theyre going to draft a concussion probe WR to cover them for their other WR woth injury problems?
