Interesting list. I'm feeling pretty meh about the Alabama WR's and Higgins IMO isn't physical enough for the next level. There will certainly be good WR's further down based on such varying opinions on the WR crop. Given that mock, I'd actually be tempted to take JK Dobbins at #24.

Anyone that comes out of "Thee" Ohio State .. you have to take seriously.

I believe JK could be had on Day 2 of the draft.

Okay. The dweeb in my old ass is coming out here.

J.K. Dobbins

When I look at that name the first thing I see is Dobby and J.K. Are y'all with me here?

Dobby was the house elf in the Harry Potter series. He gave his life in the end to save Harry and his friends.

The author of the Harry Potter series of novels is J.K. Rowling.

Another Wide Receiver I really like for us is Denzel Mims...

Couple of twitter reports from the Senior Bowl...

Tyler Johnson WR - Minnesota

Good route (some scouts claim he's the best) runner, not a burner but excels with YAC.

Tyler Johnson checks many boxes except two - appreciate he overcomes his lack of speed/suddenness with disciplined routes AND for a 6' 2" WR he gets muscled from lesser stature DBs which is problematic...

While some rate him higher, I see him as a fourth round value; but that lack of physicality reminds me of someone we've got on the roster already...

Oh boy.

IMO the two most IMPORTANT pieces for 2020 and Brees is GUARD and #2 WR who can win the 50/50 ball. Maybe the bigger (6'2 or greater), stronger, all hands team is what the doctor ordered. Can Emmanuel Sanders be that dude this season? At time Ginn and Tre simply didn't want it. I forget which game it was where Smith took a shot & had his helmet knocked off ... gotta wonder if he's having second thoughts on battling defenders on those 50/50 opportunities? Alligator arms.

Less finesse and more physicality? Vikings really slapped us around up front.

We definitely sign a veteran No. 2 WR; for me, prefer burner on the outside to stretch the field that way Thomas and Cook can split the field with the intermediate stuff, Kamara carving underneath...

Jalen Reagor is the only WR I'd take on Day 2, even Day 1 as what he brings in talent could be utilized even with a limited repertoire as he adapts to the NFL game...

Really, REALLY, liking Denzel Mims' size, catch radius; can see MT opposite a WR-z burner, TE Cook on early downs, and bring along Mims as an WR-X, letting Thomas move inside on 3rd Downs where he's lethal...

He was interviewed here locally and they asked him what is his #1 Priority at the combine was and he stated .. "to run extremely fast". If he somehow clocks around 4.33 or better ... a team could bite on his speed alone Day 1.

In some ways, I see him as a KC CHIEF Mecole Hardman type player.

EXPLOSIVE.
