Feeling like our top 3 might be something like Latham, Burton, Sainristil and I'd love it.

I like Sainristil, but he might be too small for what they typically go for. Not that it's the be-all end-all, but 5'9, 182Ibs with a short reach might be hard to overcome with a good but not great athletic profile. Still think he could be good and will be a ST ace, just not sure Packers go that route.

Watching more Shipley on YouTube and I’m still trying to figure out why anyone is high on him. He’s a tough runner but he’s stiff as a board and has like no twitch or explosion in his movement. Seems like a good pass catcher and all but I’m just not seeing anything to be impressed by.

I like him. But he turns 25 this year already. I've never been a fan of old rookies. But after hearing his story and the **** he's had to go through growing up, I'd be good with taking him in the later rounds.

Some of the routes here are just filthy.

Can Cooper DeJean be the Christian McCaffrey of DBs?
Should we double up on white guys by drafting Luke McCaffrey in the later rounds?

What do you guys think? I am obviously biased, but I was wrong about CMC so I will try to leave my bias out of it.

In this day and age its a weird thing to even bring up.

Side note: DB, Cooper is a dope nick name

They said DeJean ran 4.44 40 and RAS based on pro-day numbers would have been 9.67. Not that shocking. I would love to pair him with McKinney.

Burton's a little interesting because you figure he's gonna be in that 2nd round range.

I like him. Having a burner WR to stretch the defense opens up this offense even more and then they don’t have to put all their eggs in one basket aka Watsons hamstring.

Given his size and receiving prowess I’m a bit surprised he didn’t try to convert to WR

Shipley's never gonna be some 1,000+ yard workhorse back, but neither was Austin Ekeler. I think he's a guy you can move all around the field and I'd trust MLF to find ways to make him an awesome pro.

I would be anti early draft capital on a receiver. I think Wicks and Reed are both guys in that 1/2 mold, and am super comfortable having Doubs being that James Jones redzone guy. Watson feels like gravy at this point given the hammy issues. Re: Bowers, I'll pass. VERY high on Kraft moving forward over Musgrave. You watch his production vs. Musgrave last year, and it pops. Pure violence, just should probably save those knees and stop trying to hurdle folks.

I like Kraft a lot as a the checkdown / quickout option he is, but Bowers is a guy you could build an offense around. Every time he touches the ball he's a threat to house it because he turns into a 6'3" 240 lb running back with crazy good feet and speed to beat guys in the middle of the field.

He'd be so ridiculous in MLF's offense.

Profound23 · Post #1398 » by **Profound23** » Wed Apr 10, 2024 3:45 am

I think Bears should draft Caleb and Bowers (or trade up for MHJ), hopefully they don't listen to me.

Trade up for Cooper Dejean, that’s all I ask. Is that too much? I don’t think so.
