That’s cute, Cribby. Fact is, this WR class was stud filled. For me, I watch a chit load of FB (Thank you Sunday Ticket). For me, I’m seeing Chase do all of this w/ a yr off of football, as a rookie, playing w/ a 2nd yr QB coming off a major injury. He’s made Higgins better, already. The guy is just smoking defenders w/ ease & fluidity.
Now, I usually don’t say this, but, the ‘21 draft have the potential to go down as one of the best drafts in NFL history particularly from the WR position. ****, E Moore had an injury filled yr, but he was coming on as a NYJ. But imo, Chase is the best of the bunch. I was in love w/ him at LSU, and that’s carried over to the NFL.
Tee Higgins was playing well as a rookie and is pretty talented in his own right. He's exactly what you want in a #2 WR imo. So I wouldn't be accrediting a lot of his success to Chase. Secondly Burrow is already one of the most (statistically I think he's actually #1) accurate Qbs in the NFL. So saying "2nd yr QB coming off a major injury" sounds like you're trying to make it seem like Chase doesn't have an absolute stud throwing him the ball...
But yeah Chase is a Stud. Might be the best WR of the last 3 classes (and thats saying something!) The Bengals really got a great foundation offensively. But they really need to keep investing in the Oline or they aren't going to do **** with it when it counts (when all these guys are one their rookie deals).
Regarding the 21 draft at WR, I really don't get how Amon-Ra St. Brown fell to the 4th round.
But I don't think the 21 class at WR is going to be better than the 2020 or the 2019 class. I mean both have been pretty ******* good up to this point:
2020:
Hit: Jerry Jeudy, Ceedee Lamb, Justin Jefferson, Brandon Aiyuk, Tee Higgins, Michael Pittman, Chase Claypool, Darnell Mooney,
Solid: Laviska Shenault, Van Jefferson, Devin Duvernay (ST), Tyler Johnson, Quintez Cephus, KJ Osborn,
Miss: Jalen Reagor, KJ Hamler, Denzel Mims,
**** You: Henry Ruggs (Literally killed a lady), Bryan Edwards (T.O+Moss My ******* ***).... Raiders can't have nice things
2019:
Hit: Marquise Brown, Deebo Samuel, AJ Brown, DK Metcalf, Dionte Johnson, Terry McLaurin, Hunter Renfrow,
Solid: Mecole Hardman, Darius Slayton, Scotty Miller,
Miss: Nkeal Harry, JJ Arcega Whiteside, Parris Campbell, Andy Isabella, Jalen Hurd, Miles Boykin, (after round 3 it's not really a miss....)
Basically what this has taught me is whoever is in charge of drafting WR for the Eagles sucks....makes me think Devonta Smith will be a miss too. Could have had Metcalf and Justin Jefferson lol...
