Hmm . . . didn't know that he didn't start playing organized football until Junior Year in HS. Gosh damn I wish we had multiple picks in the top 2 rounds.

Personally, I don't think Latimer fits well with the Chiefs offensive system. When watching him, the first word that came to my mind was "stiff." He's not very fluid on his breaks (and really doesn't make many breaks anyway as the Hoosier seemed to use him exclusively on deep and fade corner routes because of this). He doesn't create very good separation off the line and doesn't have very good open field agility. Single speed receiver that doesn't seem to have a great feel for the game. I think he's getting overvalued because of his strength/straight line speed combination. Teams are looking at his base parameters, his basketball first background and thinking that they can coach him up. He doesn't have the explosiveness of guys like Watkins, Beckham, Moncrief or Cooks and he doesn't have the instincts/naturalness of a Matthews or Robinson. I'd easily take Clemson's Martavis Bryant over him. (Yet another guy running a Combine official 4.42 with a 39" vertical at 6'4", 211 lbs. - Jesus this draft is ****ing absolutely loaded with WR's.) I think that Latimer going to be overdrafted by someone. |
Gil Brandt of NFL.com, reports Florida State WR Kelvin Benjamin recently blew off a private workout with an NFL coach who had made a special trip to work him out...Benjamins excuse was that he was too tired.

I dont think its a simple as size, but likely has to do with explosive ability (the ability to move a lot of weight quickly). |

You go with your gut and pick the one you think is the best. If you've got a problem with a 5'9 WR making 100+ catches a year because you could have got a 6'4 guy that makes a living on a catch that didn't count then you've got ****ing issues. |
reposting since its relevant.

Andre Johnson AJ Green Julio Jones Brandon Marshall Alshon Jeffrey Josh Gordon Larry Fitzgerald Dez Bryant Demaryius Thomas Vincent Jackson These guys all have the ability to dominate in the red zone, short, intermediate, or deep because of their size, strength, flexibility, focus, and great catch radius. Small guys like Desean Jackson and Mike Wallace, who have all of the speed and quickness in the world, might as well not be on the field in the Red Zone. I'd rather have a slower Alshon Jeffrey/Brandon Marshall who can catch everything thrown their way over a tiny guy who would be virtually useless in the red zone and actually limits what you can do down there if they are on the field. |
