Thing that worries me about Golden is it sounds like Texas was surprised he ran a 4.29

Yeah he's like the slowest 4.2 guy ever. He's fine, but you're getting Chris Olave, not Desean Jackson.

Why would that be worrying? Even if they thought he would rub a 4.39 or even 4.45 that wouldn't be bad.

I’m really not opposed to Josh Simmons it just makes that god awful pick a year ago that much worse.

[lupedafiasco]

2 healthy top 10 talent in Simmons and Will Johnson here. More positional need for Johnson. Less risk with Simmons.

THERE WE GO!!!!

Who we taking???!!!!

[Labrev]

Okay, I'm all about Jihaad Campbell here. I think he's clear-cut above the rest here, and is a baller who I just want to have on our D.

Because it signals he doesn't play at elite speed.

Like watching Watson you can see he's a burner. What I love about Golden is his mitts.

[Labrev]

I can be happy with Johnson, Golden, Pearce (Top-30 visit so if they don't hate him, I'm cool with him), or I guess Burden here, too.

[Pckfn23]

What about Revel?

[go pak go]

Come on. Go get Golden Gute.

[lupedafiasco]

It’s a great pick. Just funny considering all the WR1s we passed on. We take one in what is one of the worst WR classes ever.

[Crazylegs Starks]

Wide receiver?! In the first? I thought that wasn't allowed in Green Bay

[go pak go]

Come on. Go get Golden Gute.

[MY_TAKE]

Im happy. He has plenty of speed, tracks the ball well, and runs well after the catch. We needed another playmaker on offense with some question marks with other guys. Hope it works out.

[lupedafiasco]

My opinion was Golden had the best hands in the class and it wasn’t even close. I think he needs to work on his release for sure to make better use of his speed down the field. This is a great pick though. There’s a lot of Stephon Diggs in his game.

Murphy did a good job making that moment feel big

Agreed. His mitts is what I loved the most. Also like his variation in his route running. He can play any spot. Wish he was 1 to 2 inches taller and yes. He does need to figure out how to translate the speed to burn defenses more.

Personally I didn't like the Day 2 WRs outside of Royals and Higgins. Glad we don't need to worry about that tomorrow now.

AZ Thomas is now my top choice for tomorrow

I don't like these weaknesses. At all.

Weaknesses
Routes can be too nonchalant and unfocused.
Takes foot off the gas if he feels like the route is covered.
Pops upright into route breaks, providing coverage a tell.
Needs to play stronger at the top of the route.
Inconsistent working back on throws to protect catch-point.
Poor hand timing causes focus drops underneath.

Who wrote that? I have a lot of disagreements.
