I'd be happy with Burks at 29 or 30.

What two guys?

I know some guys that hunt pigs with spears. They're actually kind of scary. ROFL

"Note: there are guys like Burks and Ojabo that I left off because I don’t think they have a shot to make it to our range."


These two guys.

I forgot to take out that part. That was from my original post.

They are on the list.

LOL, my bad. After reading the list, I read that and thought wait?

I love both of those guys!

After JW, Burks is my favorite WR.

Yeah, I'd be fine with it.

I've warmed to him. I'm not sure how long it would take for him to learn to be a 'real' WR with a full route tree, but man, the speed on the field is evident. At a point you just have to ignore his track time because when he's out there against SEC competition he just looks faster than those guys.

He's football fast. And for as rarely as I believe that's an actual thing, it sure seems to be in Burks case.

So he's kind of like Nick Bolton in that regard. I had never thought about that until reading this post.

The thing about it is….if he had ran anywhere close to a 4.3-4.4…..he’s not anywhere near our pick. And hell….I’m not sure the Packers don’t take him at 28 if they haven’t taken a WR at 22.

I just think the idea of 'football speed' is kinda silly.

Really? 20 ounce worth of football pads are going to slow down guys who can squat 300+ lbs? These guys are freak athletes, they aren't effected by the weight. And most of them don't wear the thigh/hip pads anyway so it's not like they're encumbered.

Most of the time a guy running on a track IS running about as fast as he can possibly run on a football field. But when you see Burks hit 22 mph on the field...well clearly that's faster than he ran on the track.

So I guess I just say he had an off day at the combine? Because if you're a 4.6 guy there's no amount of 'he's faster in pads' that will ever convince me. Even with Bolton it didn't/doesn't. He isn't any faster on the field than he times - he's just REALLY decisive so he appears to be faster than he is.

But Burks actually RAN 22 mph. He's just freakin' fast. So you ignore the combine and look at the tape at that point.

Trey Burks. True man. Manly man. Badass

Less athletic version of Chris Conley? Nah I’m good dawg. Not in the first rd

They've talked all about the DL, I think we end up going that direction adn the WR talk is all smokey screen.

Who are you talking about?

When you have 3 picks in the top 50, it’s not an either/or situation.
