George Pickens - Page 7

TambaBerry · 03-27-2022, 09:09 AM

Why isn't this kid being talked about? Injury of course but man when healthy he looks like an explosive receiver who can catch anything thrown his way. Would love to have him but I'm honestly not sure where he should go.

I bet he goes before us

I do NOT think he will be there at 50.

Its either take him in the first or trade up in the second and by that I mean into the 30s or very early 40s, probably 30s. If any team took another position in the first, they will take him next round. We have 18 teams in front of us in the second.

"If in three years George Pickens is the best WR from this draft class, I won't be surprised.

Some of that of course depends on where he lands (it does for everyone), but his ability is WR1 material."

Yikes! Something going wrong at Picken's interviews... "The Pickens' interview was horrible," said a NFC director of player personnel. "He's barely alive on our board and still could get dropped off."

Not buying it. Source is already questionable, and to hear that this late in the game out of nowhere reeks of lying season bs.

I'd assume its smoke signals also but those are pretty strong words to be flinging around.

**RealSNR** · 04-24-2022, 03:53 PM

How exactly do "character concerns" come up in an interview, exactly?

I could see a team coming away with the impression that a player is not smart. Or dreadfully inexperienced. They could think the player was unprepared for the interview, which could lead them to think he won't work hard.

But like... they already know about any character concerns given that most of that shit is public and could be discovered by any jackass with an internet connection. And if there's stuff that's not public information, how are they going to figure that out unless the player straight up says, "Yeah, I love drugs and committing crimes. And I think all coaches are dweebs."

I always question information from Walter and Charlie as 100% accurate but they have no reason to lie, only those giving them the information. That's some pretty damning accusations so I guess we'll find out this week if true or not. Given the number of Bulldogs already with questionable histories, I wouldn't put it out of the realm of possibility. That said, I do have suspicions it's teams picking at the top of the round that want him to fall to the 2nd, but if they aren't bluffing he's going to fall hard given everything else that's already questionable.

You may be right, as I ran several mock drafts today using pff draft, and “always” is picked in that 33-38 range. It’s odd how the returns on several of these mock simulations have such huge variance.

Couch-Potato Simmons @ 32 > Fisher @ 1 Join Date: Jan 2015 Casino cash: $183065	Yikes! Something going wrong at Picken's interviews... "The Pickens' interview was horrible," said a NFC director of player personnel. "He's barely alive on our board and still could get dropped off." https://www.reddit.com/r/GreenBayPac...ens_character/ Spoiler! Multiple team sources say that make-up concerns are weighing down the draft stock of Georgia wide receiver George Pickens. While teams like Pickens' tape and skill set, they feel he is going to slide at least into the second day of the 2022 NFL Draft because of character concerns. ... "The Pickens' interview was horrible," said a NFC director of player personnel. "He's barely alive on our board and still could get dropped off." ... A few other team sources said the character evaluation for Pickens was "terrible." While Pickens produced some good tape in 2020 and has a legit combination of size and speed, he tore his ACL in the spring of 2021. That caused him to miss the vast majority of the 2021 season except for a few games to close out the season. ... "He could go lower, but the third round is probably the most viable for Pickens," said an AFC director of college scouting. ... Given the medical red flags to go with the major character concerns, Pickens could be in store for a draft-day slide.
