He can't run laterally and basically only ran a hitch or go route in college. Not really a fit here. He's a rocked up #2 deep threat in a vertical offense.
at least he provides great blocking plus decent receiver ability....EE plus TJ would basically be what BB had in mind with Gronk and Hernandez....without the sociopathic tendencies of course.
From his muscles tearing completely off his bones.
If that's the case, then yeah, buyer beware. I'm going strictly off of potential. He's a H/W/S freak.
I am sure you saw him run at the combine, dude looked like a robot.
What do you mean? I didn't notice anything when he ran except that he was chugging. Physically and given his attributes, he's similar to Julio Jones. Obviously not as polished as Jones was coming out of Bama, though.
Can’t see any upside to drafting any WR at 17. Right or wrong that WR will be linked directly to OBJ and anything less than Pro Bowel type career would be viewed as a bust. I cant imagine the pressure it would put on the WR not to mention the NYG organization.
and I'm sure he can block like a fullback. But he's not an elite body control guy, he's not agile, his hands aren't particularly soft, and he has injury concerns over and above the risk that one of his (purely natural, I'm sure) muscles just happens to tear off the bone in a non-contact injury.
And Ferrell should be our first 2 picks. Barkley, Engram, Shepard, are a fine trio. We could add OL round 2, then go WR like Boykin in the third. Just not in love with this years wrs class.
People say that about RBs all the time, and it's true. But if you've got ten first rounders and ten UDFAs your chances of finding an impact player at WR (or RB, or just about anywhere) are much, much higher among the first rounders.

True. But there WRs all over the NFL whom do more than fine not lik Ed in Rd 1. People say RBs are a dime a dozen. WRs even more so. Top tier talent can be found easily in RD 2 and 3. Especially w al the favorable rule changes. Go look at the top 20 guys every year. Most aren’t first rounders. Doesn’t mean you pass on OBJ or Julio Jones but there are a ton of Sammy Watkins and Tavon Austin’s.
This team Needs OL, DL, LBs S etc. pick BPA. If it’s A
WR ok. The real issue is we had Reese and Ross who couldn’t find talent in at round and Giant fans are Leary if anyone picked after Rd 1
I guess we can just tell him to run in a straight line down the field every play though and catch the ball.
He had LisFranc Injury and surgery. No thanks.

I really don't need to see a calf muscle explode on a 5 yard out on Regional TV coverage.
Steve Tasker won't know what the fuck to say on the commentary. "Oh, looks like he hurt his shoulder there".....
If that's the case, then yeah, buyer beware. I'm going strictly off of potential. He's a H/W/S freak.

See Stacy Robinson.
Slow on things that are require more natural talent
Not much real production on the field
AJ Brown reminds me a TON of Hakeem Nicks
Glad to help Anakiper!

Butler is ridiculous....And would be great in this offense. He isnt a finished product but his tools are further along then what some credit him for.
