I'm an analytics guy and I hate offensive guys that come out of the spread they are overrated and over valued. At wr you have to either be physically dominant (Calvin Johnson) Or a technically sound route runner (Cooper) to be productive in the NFL and you better be a HELL of a route runnner for me to use a first rounder on you like Cooper was.

So if you are coming from a system that doesn't use a route tree that does t teach you how to run routes but rather how to "find a spot" in league where there are no fricking spots lol, and you aren't a physical freak I dont care how many passes you caught against ou shity defense.

Does the fact Kevin white was injuried change any of that. No. Is there any one player on that list that had you not picked in the first you look back on and say damn we fricked up by not picking them no. Bills gave up 2 firsts to get Sammy remember that. Is he worth 2 firsts? he's barely worth one.

Imagine the bills with Kahlil Mack and another first rounder in 2015 because that's exactly what they would have had if they pass on watkins in 2014. Mack was the next pick.




Note: Hopkins is really really good. Best the list by far


Lol you really really don't want to hear my opinion about quarterbacks

Actually like Treadwell not enough to take in the first round but I wouldn't mind using the second on him at all unlike most spread wide receivers he's extremely physical he has a very high floor

I am typically a lurker, but I had to chime in on this thread. OP is reaching really hard to find bust in spread systems. I actually think the majority of his listed players are pretty good WR eg: Maclin, Evans, Watkins, Wright, etc
