He's anything but slow with one of the fastest 3-cones in the draft, but the concussions are a concern. Giving what happened with Ryan Swope, a very similar player, I think it is tough to draft Abbrederis very early.

@MoveTheSticks: This draft is ridiculously loaded at WR. I'm watching Coastal Carolina WR Matt Hazel... Size/speed/fluid route runner/strong hands.

Here's hoping we get two (2) WR's outta this draft. :D

updated WR speed score with pro day numbers
Moncrief 117.93
Janis 114.75
Enunwa 114.76
Latimer 114.72
Shaq Evans 113.66
DJ Coles 111.71
Martavis Bryant 110.57
Deon Anthony 110.13
Mike Evans 109.71
Sammy Watkins 109.57
Brandin Cooks 107.53
Jordan Mathews 107.16
Brandon Coleman 104.08
Josh Huff 103.2
Odell beckham 102.82
Davante Adams 102.48

This. I'm absolutely wary about drafting anyone under 6'1 or 6'2 with a draft this deep in receivers. The CURRENT roster already has a 5'11 receiver who runs a 4.27 and a 6'0 receiver who runs a 4.3... both are completely useless overall in the NFL. Spot "contributors" at best. They need to draft a day 1 starter..

FYP

He's got a very low vertical as well.

Guys like Abbrederis and BYU's Cody Hoffman (ultra-productive college receivers who lack the explosiveness/burst to be successful as downfield threats at the next level) are going to be very system dependent at the next level.

By looking and bringing in guys like Avery, Jenkins and Sanders, it doesn't appear that a guy like Abbrederis is on the radar of the Chiefs. They look like they want a guy who has burst and is capable of separation. They've already got "horizontal" type receivers in Bowe and Hemingway, and the tight end position plays to this as well.

I would guess that guys like Beckham, Cooks, Ellington, Herron, Huff, and the like are what they may be looking for.

Bowe creates vertical seperation, not horizontal. That is likely the case with Hemingway as well though he doesnt appear to create any type of seperation.

If Latimer surprisingly goes in the 1st, who do you think will take him? My best guess is the 49ers at 30. They have tons of picks and they did take AJ Jenkins a few years ago, whom many considered a late 2nd to 3rd round pick the year that he came out.

Here's the main reason why I would take Matthews, Allen Robinson, and a few other fringe 1st round WRs over Lee.

He showed the same problem at the combine. It's the real reason why he dropped 12% of his passes last year, not inconsistent QB play.

I'm thinking Carolina, Denver, or San Francisco. I'd think it will be quite late in round 1 if it happens.

I'll tell you what guys. This Jarvis Landry kid looks like Dwayne Bowe with better hands. IMO he is this years Keenan Allen.

Slow 40 or not I'd still take him. He's got nice game speed. He may not be a burner, but damn is he a great possession guy. He does just about everything well.

Really overshadowed by Odell Beckham Jr.

I like Landry too. Just wish he would have tested better. Looks more like a 4.5 guy on tape. If he's there in the 3rd I would take him. He's the best bet to end up being the next Anquan Boldin.

We have that guy on the roster.

His name is Junior Hemingway. Except Junior is bigger and faster.

I'm no fan of Landry, but, come on, get real.

I understand the "what have you done lately for me" concepts and the "newness" of Landry versus the Hemingway you've seen on the Chiefs roster the past couple of seasons (a guy who's a very good special teams player and produces when he's been inserted into the offense), but Hemingway was no slouch in college. I'd say he was every bit as good as Landry and had/has substantially more upside at the next level.

Hemingway Combine:
6'1", 225 lb.
32 1/2" arms
9 5/8" hands
40: 4.53
Vertical: 35.5"
Broad: 124"
Bench: 21 reps
3 Cone: 6.59 seconds
20 Shuttle: 3.98 seconds
60 Shuttle: 11.16 seconds

In his last three years Hemingway averaged 16.8, 18.5 and 20.6 yards per catch.


Landry Combine:
5'11", 205 lb.
31 3/4" arms
10 1/4" hands
40: 4.77
Vertical: 28.5"
Broad: 110"
Bench: 12 reps

In his three years of college, Landry averaged 10.8, 10.2 and 15.5 yards per catch.

Personally, I think that Landry is being severely overrated in this draft, especially considering the talent, production and athletic level that's available at the wide receiver position.

And straight up, I'd take Hemingway over Landry regardless right here, right now.
