Watkins !!!!!!!!!

If Evans is there do you take him or denard?


Hate to say it but there's slim to no chance that we get Watkins. We would have to trade our draft picks to move up to the #5 spot and I don't think we can afford to do that with our other holes on D.

If the Bucs and Bills don't take Evans, it'll be a hard choice for Mayhew but I would go with Evans over Gilbert/Dennard. We already have a bunch of young corners and rookie corners typically struggle as rookies. I'd prefer we sign a vet cb than draft one early

Evans over Dennard ez, i'm not sold by the corners this year, especially at 10th pick. I'm stoked for Tate, guy has only been improving lately, he's a tough dude taking some big hits very elusive and quick.


don't like his attitude and how he boast, hopefully he can keep that shit off the field and chill.

Yeah, Watkins is sort of a wet dream , couldn't really afford to trade up to get him . But I would be ok with taking Evans at 10 that would pretty much secure our offense if no one gets hurt. The line backers stepped up last year and suprised me . Just those corners and ssftey spots are the weak spot now . Although with the Glover Quinn signing last year it was better. I would love to see us pick up a proven corner or saftey . Our recent picks with dbs Havnt been to good the last few years

What's not to like?

He is a very talented promising young wide out that can also line up in the slot if needed.


He also plays big for his size.

He's going to be a fan favorite instantly.... and opposite Calvin... look out

hated him for that reason

He did catch 144 of 149 catchable balls... great hands --> Something this team desperately needed last year. AHEM Durham/Pettigrew

He's going to compliment Megatron well.
