Zay Flowers vs. Jalin Hyatt

It's Hyatt for me.

He's bigger, I think he's faster, and I think he translates to the NFL better.

Hyatt which means Flowers is probably better. I haven't watched a BC game since they played Mizzou a few years back

Hyatt has a higher ceiling, Flowers a higher floor imo. I think worst case scenario for Flowers is he's a lethal slot, for Hyatt it's that press kills him and he never gets the polish to be a decent contributor. But I'll fully immediate I could see more of Hyatt and might be missing parts of his game.

Hyatt plays the position in a way that we need more at this time. Flowers is the superior talent and probably a Pro Bowler in Andy Reid's offense.

Really hard call for me. I'd probably go Flowers, by an inch.

Reserve the right to change my mind after combine numbers but the way Flowers dips his hips during routes and changes directions makes me believe he will be a similar receiver to Garrett Wilson.

Hyatt reminds me a lot of a more sure-handed Will Fuller. I'd be happy with either but I like Zay more at the moment.

Hyat is bigger and looks faster but the thing that puts him over the top for me is level of competition. The ACC isn't exactly Pop Warner but it sure as hell isn't the SEC.

Early, first impressions say Flowers. But ive spent very little time on this and reserve the right to change my mind. But my first impression is that Flowers is a special, rare talent that'll likely go in the first 20 picks.

I'm all-in on Jalin Hyatt, honestly, but that doesn't mean I don't think highly of Flowers.

Hyatt is Jameson Williams 2.0 as a prospect. Similar collegiate trajectory. Similar physical profile, maybe even a little bit thicker. Easy speed to take the top off the defense. I just think he's the type of player, for this offense, that could have a DeSean Jackson or Tyreek Hill type of impact.

Flowers... man he's crisp. He's got good speed too. I don't think he has the speed that Hyatt does or a Hill or a D-Jax but it's up there, maybe high 4.3s to low 4.4s. I think he's a guy that could be outstanding as a Z or Slot. He looks a lot like Tyler Lockett to me. I can't bag on him in any department other than height. I'd gladly have him.

At the end of the day, I think Hyatt is a top-15 selection. Flowers is a guy that could easily go round 1 as well. Either could be 1000-yard receivers in the league. It's more a matter of preference than it is anything but the NFL loves speed and Hyatt has it in spades.

It will be interesting to see what Hyatt runs in the 40. Supposedly 4.3 or nearly. He has good hands, just watch his tape, produced at an elite level vs TOP SEC talent. Made Alabama db's look BAD. If he is there I would LOVE to see the Chiefs take him.
