Who do you want at 15?

If Bowers is there then I definitely want us to take him. If he's gone then BT or Mitchell or BTJr. Although I'm sure trading down is the most likely.

How I think they will go, pass catcher and corner in the top two rounds.
1. Bowers > Mitchell/BTj > slight trade down for Worthy
2. If pass catcher in 1; Max melton/TJ Tampa
If CB in 1; Malachi Corley

Has Worthy shown he can do more other than go deep? Would hate to see us spend a 1st rounder on a smaller, fast version of Pierce.

Yeah Worthy is quite capable. He’s been their #1 receiver since he’s been there and had nearly 1000 yards as a freshman. Freshman production of that kind is a good indicator of future success. Does a good job of hiding his routes and intentions. He attacks the ball in the air using his hands. His speed gives teams fits they are so afraid of it. He gets large cushions that he takes advantage of on come backs, deep curls, digs, outs and slants. He also clears out whole areas as a distraction bc safeties freak out when he is in their area, freeing things underneath for other receivers. But he knows how to use his speed also and can juke guys in short range and goal line situations, also a huge distraction as a potential jet sweep. A couple other things, Ewers is not a good deep ball thrower and he missed him on quite a few would be touchdowns. I know a couple longhorns fans and they told me he would get open a lot but the pass would be short or late allowing the corner to close. Also you may see people talk about him dropping a lot of passes last year, but he had a broken hand which not many know. His catching was much better this year.

He is also a good returner.

But if I’m Steichen I’m looking at potential mismatches and YAC guys. Bowers, Corley, Worthy, BTj, Mitchell. He wants more explosive plays and there are quite a few receivers lost in this draft that have r was on good speed.

If the top 5 (MHJ, Nabers, Odunze, BTJ, Mitchell) are gone after a trade down, my next guy would be Legette. Corley is more of a trade down in Round 2 guy IMO.

I see Corley and Legette as round two. Corley has a lot to learn as a receiver still. He’s compared to Deebo but Deebo was much more refined as a receiver. But he is a weapon in the open field.legettes lack of production worries me late two imo. I’m not a huge fan of Mitchell, think he should have produced more, and he was hurt the first two years at Georgia. I think Worthy has jumped Mitchell and is top 20 now.

You don’t like Worthy at all?

Ok, saw that Worthy was somewhat productive so figured he's more than just a 40 time. Agree we need more YAC guys. Hope we draft at least 2-3.
