re: Chris Simms' Top 5 WRs for the draft. The board will like this list

I am just not big on Harrison. I watched Notre Dame, who has elite corners - maybe the best CB in NCAA, shut him down two years in a row.

He disappeared in games. But Notre Dame also made Caleb Williams look like a 3rd rounder. They had an elite secondary.

I'm all-in on Nabers WR1. I do think theres some bust potential there with Thomas though. Kind of reminds me of Breshaud Perriman coming out. Don't know who that is???? Exactly. Though he did stick around in the league for a few years, and his landing spot wasn't great.

One big positive for Thomas. Most mocks I've seen have him going mid to late 1st round. Odds are pretty good he will be drafted into a better situation than Harrison, Nabers and Odunze.

But competed and ran a smooth 4.33 and looked great in drills. I hope he goes before Marvin

Harrison didn’t run at the combine?

Simms didn’t have Garrett Wilson or Chris Olave in his top 5 WRs for the 2022 draft

I wouldn’t put Roman Wilson in the top 10 much less the top 5

This is what happens with players COMPETE! Brian Thomas could have easily sat out the NFL combine. Brian Thomas and Marvin Harrison have eerily similar meaurables (same height, same weight, hand size). But competed and ran a smooth 4.33 and looked great in drills. I hope he goes before Marvin

---

Did it hurt Chase when he didn't compete or play an entire season?

Top players sit out the running and drills at the combine every year and it never really impacts their draft stock to my knowledge

I've seen several respected actual Scouts (not just TV dudes) who have really questioned the Maye in the top 3 narrative. They just don't get it and think he's less of a risk a little bit back

This draft should be a good one to look back on with all the bust/boom prospects. Hoge doesn't like Caleb at all.

"The one thing, I can tell you this from studying him last year and early parts of this year, there's one thing that is clear to me: He is not special," Hoge told VSiN. "He is not special. There is nothing special about him. There is nothing that I would be like 'Wow.' "

Hoge heard the comparisons to Mahomes.

"No way," he said. "C.J. Stroud—he doesn't throw the ball nearly like C.J. Stroud does. He doesn't play from the pocket. In fact, I think he struggles throwing the ball off movement. I want to confirm that, but it's just nothing special."

Not sure I agree based on MHJr running 22.2 MPH during a TD catch but again, it won't matter as they will all have their shot

I think Marv is a very talented guy and will do great in the NFL, so don't take this the wrong way in that regard, but that is not really what separation means to me. Speed is great, but you also have to make that first move and be able to get off jams at the line. Speed isn't everything when it comes to separation, there have been TONS of lightning fast WRs that suck at getting separation and some WRs great a separation that weren't speedsters. It's about separating to get open, not separation once you have the ball and are sprinting down the field.
