Hey I was worried about the injury history, too. But F it. The Saints did a deep dive and took a chance on him. Now's the time to be excited and hope for the best.

At the end of the day, we need a stud WR, too. Hopefully we got him.

I think what many people are worried about is the injury situation. When you draft a top 10 player, you shouldn’t have those worries. He may turn out to be a great pic, but the chances are to me that he will not make a full season at any time. I may be wrong but have seen this before many times. We needed other things as well and we could’ve addressed the wide receiver issue later in the draft.

I am worried about his injury history, but we need playmakers badly. I just hope he can finish a 17 game season. He definitely isn’t Calvin Johnson or Fitzgerald like someone said, but who is? lol

If he was Calvin Johnson he would have went first or second overall.

Can’t deny his talent, he’s a good player. I liked Tate more b/c I thought he fit better with Olave and was a safer pick.

It’s a gamble no doubt. But he looks like a good kid not weird like Lemon. Hope he stays healthy.

Titans forced a need and went with a guy I’m not even sure is a good fit with Cam….I wonder if love being off the board caught them off guard

Lemon was being projected top 10ish just a month ago. Dude has dropped HARD.

And of course as soon as I type this...

Maybe, but it seems Cam is the one that wanted him.

That lemon interview there probably has something to do with it…

One thing that I found very impressive about Jordan was that he had "TWENTY-SIX" reps of 225lbs. That's some elite upper body strength for a WR.

That is actually pretty damn great and shows up in his ability to go up and win the ball, and getting off jams.

He doesn’t force, or break, missed tackles

look, if he can get and stay healthy, we have our WR1... he's a very good player...

but given our injury history, our medical staff, etc... taking a guy with a lengthy and recent injury history, i dunno... seems awfully risky

i think that's what most are concerned with about the pick... no one is questioning whether or not Tyson is good....

Downs is a fine player. Maybe he has a Jamal Adams type career. Not a game changer.

He reminds me of Justin Jefferson the way he runs his routes.
