    Xavier Worthy is at the top of every category

    Disappointed with Odunze’s 40 time. Had him running 4.35ish, being a state 100m runner and didn’t have to train to get off the blocks quickly.

    Xavier Worthy is probably going in the first 15 after this combine performance.

    Huge hops - wish he’s able to use it in game with ariel catches. But there’s room for growth?

    I still think there’s a good chance Penix makes early drafters regret passing on him, and if I’m the Falcons or Raiders?…….screw trading for Justin Fields and 1-year of rookie contract remaining. I’m taking the chance on Penix and several years of rookie deal

    Honestly I think what Brian Thomas and Adonai Mitchell did was more impressive. They both have over 40 pounds on Worthy and ran low 4.3s.

    I did not think Brian Thomas and Adonai Mitchel would run that fast. AD just jumped to top of my list because he already was at the top in drop percentage. Would be an elite red zone threat we need and apparently a deep threat too.

    give me Barkley and one of Thomas/Worthy/AD and spend the rest of the draft and FA on defense. We will be GOLDEN. (Would also settle for Fant/Jonnu Smith instead of Schultz to help with money)

    He moved very fluidly for his size.

    Texans will have their pick for speed at WR. Hopefully it’s the right one. Who’s the better route runner and blocker?

    For sure.

    My list for purely route running and blocking.

    Route running -
    1. MHJ
    2. Nabers
    3. McConkey
    4. Thomas
    5. Mitchell/Odunze

    Blocking
    1. Coleman
    2. McConkey
    3. Thomas
    4. Franklin

    McConkey is great just not as much upside due to his size IMO.

    We don't have to send Wolverine time travelin'
    This can still be fixed. Anyone in front of the Chiefs, NFC preferably, take him.

    Not sure he’ll ever win his shares of jump balls with his size. Reminds me a lot of DeSean Jackson.

    4.35 at his size and skill set wouldn’t be fair.
