midget WR's aren't really a huge commodity. I dont see why they wouldnt come back. Maybe 1 would make a boneheaded choice, but i cant see both

Well if they aren't huge commodities then their stock will probably never be higher than it will be after this year.

Beckham's ST and big play ability will get him drafted in the first few rounds, for sure.

You're usually fairly sharp; not this time, though.

Both will be very productive starters in the NFL.

Lester Earl? Now where have I heard that name before?

anyway, it sure doers sound like you are talking out of the side of your neck about their height. Landry is not short and is a very physical receiver as a blocker, ST player and CBs can't just bully him in Bump and run s to get him out of his timing with Mett. Without looking at the roster measurable, OBJ should be a hair over 6 ft which is fine for a quick slot guy who returns punts in the NFL.

Shite, I would love to be Trindon Holiday's manager these days even if he is a midget to you. You sure do seem like a fcknut.

A few recent 1st round WRs..

DeAndre Hopkins 6'1 214 lbs ran a 4.57 (1st round)
Justin Blackmon 6'1 210 lbs ran a 4.46 (1st round)
Michael Floyd 6'3 220 lbs ran a 4.47 (1st round)
Kendall Wright 5'10 196 lbs ran a 4.61 (1st round)
A.J Jenkins 6'0 190 lbs ran a 4.39 (1st round)

Odell Beckham Jr. 6'0 193 lbs
Jarvis Landry 6'1 195 lbs

If they both wanted they could easily get into the 205 range before the combine. There's a good history of productive WRs around their size getting drafted in the first or second round.
