I don't agree with your assessment that it's better than 50-50 he gets cut, but I can see him falling to the bottom of the group. I am fairly certain he all but has a spot on the 53 or 55 or whatever the hell it is these days.
OH YEAH! 55!! If that starts this year, that changes everything!!
(I know this sounds either sarcastic or over-the-top, but I contend that it is not; I've always wanted 2 extra roster spots)

Yeah, sign me up for 7 WR's this year.

Hopefully 2 of them should be ST standouts.

I think you can suit up 48 now too? Just as long as you have 8 OL or something. No more Letroy Guion at guard.

I'll say if we had room for Ryan Grant last year for so long, with rosters expanding, I'm confident we have room for 2 Thursday/Friday WR's this year.

Yeah, for real this tidbit totally won me over; I'm on your side. Take as many WRs as we want now. Taking, say, Mims at 30 feels much safer if we take Van Jefferson at 96 or 136. Taking Tee Higgins at 30 feels much more forgivable if we take Joe Reed at 136. Just gimme some safety and variety in these picks, combined!

Wouldn't it be funny if the draft fell a certain way in which we got a couple boss WRs and then Funchess mysteriously "failed his physical" next week :lol:

I did this for LB and was curious what a completely average WR looks like across all measurables:
Height: 6' 1"
Weight: 202 lbs
Arm Length: 32"
Hand Size: 9 3/8"
40 yard dash: 4.51s
20 yard split: 2.59s
10 yard split: 1.55s
Vertical: 35.5"
Broad: 120"
Bench: 14 reps
Shuttle: 4.22s
3 Cone: 6.96s

Michael Pittman comes closest to this missing the bench by 1 and the 40 by .01.

Wow, the AVERAGE 10-yard split is 1.55? That seems fast.

Henry Ruggs had a 1.54 and MVS had a 1.55.

Jordy had a 1.57
Davante Adams had a 1.64

It doesn't look like Mockdraftable inputs many 10 & 20 yard splits, so those could be a bit skewed.

I question 10 yard splits. Clay had like a 1.49 or something. Just no way that is possibly accurate compared to Davante.
