I think blindly looking at it... he's got great value there.
I think if you measure him against the CBs, TEs, and rush LBs he loses by a large margin.
WR won't be bpa in this draft till the 4th round at least.
I’m typically a BPA guy but this may be one of those drafts where deviating from strict BPA may be warranted.
No matter how much love there is for great value 4th and 5th round type WRs, historical probabilities still apply. A 4th and 5th round draft pick have a 10-15% chance of ever starting.
Case in point is Mike Thomas. Last year there was so much love for him from national experts and board experts. People were practically giddy we got him for such great value in the 6th round. Same for Higbee where people were calling him a 2nd round value.
The jury is still out on how they will ultimately turn out but I think it’s very interesting that some of the same people who loved them are now calling for drafting more TE’s and WR’s after getting such great value on them last year. I love the draft but draft picks in general are probably overhyped.
If we want a starter, we need to draft them by the 3rd round. That’s what history says.
My vote says draft a WR by round 3.
