If someone would have asked me, how many wide receivers get drafted and signed as a free agent on any given year, I wouldn't have guessed anywhere close to 142 dudes. That seems like a ton of guys.

I thought about that too - like, what's the point of going past 50 or 75? And, when you get down that low, surely you're just somewhat arbitrarily picking to slot a guy at 125th over the guy in 126th.

I will be v happy with 3 cats being drafted. Feel like that is an adequate amount of relevancy of producing NFL talent to point to.

I really hope someone falls in love with DJamer and takes him earlier than late 3rd round. I think he could be beloved by a fan base if he falls to a team that prioritizes him.

He will be beloved by me if he gets drafted at 95.

Yeah, that's nearly 5 WR per team. That's a lot.

Teams need a lot of bodies for camp and they all keep a WR or two on their practice squad.

84. Parrish (Bucs)

Round 4
128. Giddens (Commanders)

Round 5
143. Howard (Raiders)

Round 7
255. Sigle (Browns)

From the nfl.com draft tracker

Pick Analysis

Round 5 • Pick 14 (151)

Some media folks were talking up Giddens as a Day 2 possibility, but I never quite saw that. He was a consistent producer for the Jayhawks and has a nice size-speed quotient, but Giddens had trouble hanging onto the ball last season. -- Eric Edholm

Maybe he meant consistent producer -against- the Jayhawks.

So a third and two fifth rounders. Pretty solid

Does this idiot get paid for this kind of insight? Aside from the Jayhawks inanity, Giddens was arock with the ball. I only remember the BYU fumble, but may have overlooked others.

Very true.  I might recall a fumble in the Houston game . . .   I think this dork mixed up Neal and Giddens  :dunno:
