    Well, that's what those words mean. He was here. If they don't keep him, he will have been lost/subtracted. I headed out the door today with two shoes on my feet. If I don't return with them, I have lost them. If I do return with them, I haven't added them. ---M2

    I'm a big fan of taking OL or DL in the first round. But the idea of taking Chase is growing on me. Get Cosmi, Little, or Eichenberg in the second and everything else will be gravy.

    Malik Wright (who seems pretty plugged in) says he's 95% sure the pick will be Chase.

    Exactly. He’s heavier which works in his favor. It’s why most are shying away from DeVonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle as well. Same height as Chase but about 30 lb less.

    Do you think Smith is going to be a good NFL player? He is the guy who I would stay away from in the first round.

    As I've been saying. Glad to see it confirmed.

    Random draft quote from an experienced top evaluator: “This draft is unprecedented in its sheer number of really good slot WRs.” Last year’s WR class was deep, but more outside guys. This year, it’s top inside guys.

    I think he will be, but I'd be nervous about using a top 10 pick on him

    Just depends on who drafts him and how he’s utilized.

    I’d have less faith in him working out in Cincinnati than I would somewhere like the Giants where he would be opposite Kenny Golladay.

    I subscribe to Matt Miller's venture that he launched after he left Bleacher Report. He released his scouting summary on Chase today. He hasn't released one on Sewell yet that I have seen. I am pasting the summary of Chase here, and will do same for Sewell when/if he releases those notes. This captures the argument for Chase really well, IMO...

    Strengths: Chase is the ideal combination of body control, strength, physicality, speed and overall athleticism. Despite not having elite height, he’s a monster in traffic because he’s strong enough to out-position defenders and has elite vertical jump skills. Against SEC defenders in 2019, before he opted out of the 2020 season, Chase showed the speed to separate over the top of defenses (see Florida and Alabama games) when facing man coverage. He’s a WR1 from Day 1 on an NFL team. In 2019, as a 19-year-old, Chase scored 20 touchdowns and won the Fred Biletnikoff Award as the nation’s best receiver. He is scheme-proof and can fit into any role playing outside and inside receiver.

    Weaknesses: There isn’t much to write here. Chase isn’t amazing in terms of open-field quickness and elusiveness. That might be it.

    What I Love: Few wide receiver prospects combine Chase’s physicality, aggressiveness and athleticism. He’s super-aggressive and competitive but also has the speed to blow past defenders. He’s rare.

    Chase reminds me a bit of Devante Adams...nice combination of speed, and the ability to use his body to his advantage to make the catch.

    Not really into grade school football philosophy...the best player plays Quarterback, anyone else that's good goes out for a pass, and all the scrubs block.

    Give me Sewell or pick up a pick or three, trade down a few spots and grab Slater.

    Trade back and still get Sewell...

    If Sewell gets past the Falcons at 4 I could see him being available to the Bengals if they make a trade with Denver. It's something worth considering and the price goes up the closer you get to draft day.
