could someone explain to me why he is so highly regarded and i shouldnt take Big Mike over him?
i wasnt overly wowed by anything ive seen (highlight or game footage) he caught a lot of screens and slants; some broken plays he caught easy balls on. hes not very imposing and has smaller hands for a guy his size - he does sort of remind me of AJGreen in his height/acceleration but im not sold

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
People are favoring Davis over Williams because of his expanded route tree and refined skills at the position. He can run practically every route and is now in the critiquing stage of his route running abilities, where-as Williams still has a lot to learn about route running and does not possess the elite speed/vertical/burst.Favrezilla wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2017 2:11 pm could someone explain to me why he is so highly regarded and i shouldnt take Big Mike over him?

Williams has similar size/speed/vert as someone like Kelvin Benjamin. Doesn't have the top end speed to be a true #1.
Davis has the technique to succeed from day 1 and has WR1 upside with his advanced route tree and after-the-catch abilities.

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
Yeah pretty much. Would you rather have Kevin "MY BALL" White or a guy who can actually run routes who isn't so great at contested catches such as Amari Cooper.IBall2 wrote: ↑Wed Apr 05, 2017 7:03 amPeople are favoring Davis over Williams because of his expanded route tree and refined skills at the position.

One comp I heard a few days ago was Terrell Owens and that made a lot of sense to me. Both small school guys, both 6"3 in the 210lb range coming out of college. Neither player was a big "my ball" kind of guy. Both didn't have the greatest hands.
One thing that's confused me a little bit reading some scouting reports on Corey Davis is some ppl don't think he's that fast. I happen to think he looks plenty fast and athletic, like sub 4.5 easily. Am I missing something or...???

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
ive heard the TO comp. and then ive heard that QUICKLY blown out by the other bloggers/talking heads so im not even going to think about that...as far as the speed, hes "quick" not fast...and his "old" 40 times range from 4.4 - 4.6, 4.5 is fast enough but thats not considered FAST for a WR or am i wrong? i also dont think thats as big a deal as long as you can beat press from the line and catch a ball.Dynasty DeLorean wrote: ↑Thu Apr 06, 2017 1:55 am One comp I heard a few days ago was Terrell Owens and that made a lot of sense to me.

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
I think people consider Corey Davis 'quick but not fast' because his technique is above average for route running so he doesn't have to be fast. It's a poor idea that people have gotten stuck in their heads and now they can't unthink it. Also, people are thinking this because he played at a MAC school where it's perceived that opposing talent is less, thus they are slower and Corey Davis is now slower just by connecting these dots.
It's not true but IMO but this is where I think people get the idea from.

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
I like the Kevin White / Amari Cooper comparison. One being more physically dominant whereas the other being a more polished all around WR. Although with that said I still see Davis/Williams as being a lot closer overall than Cooper/White were
For me it's going to come down to the team/QB that draft each. For example, I'd take Mariota's new #1WR over Tyrod's new #2WR any day

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
Sounds like KC is already thinking to the future with a lot of mocks pointing to an early QB so I wouldn't worry too much about that. He should be a good RAC guy and might not take long to pass Maclin.Favrezilla wrote: ↑Mon Apr 10, 2017 8:42 pm What if he ends up on a team like KC?

Would be slightly more worried about him ending up in a spot as a clear WR2 with a young-ish WR1 like Buffalo or Cincy. Still leaning towards taking him 1.01 since I have another top 5 pick and can go RB with it.

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
I don't see that happening either, especially given Tyreek Hill's rookie year performance. I definitely see KC taking their next QB over another WR, unless they get jumped before their pick. In that case, I see them trading back.
However, in the unlikely event they drafted C.Davis, I think it would drop his draft value down to the 1.06 even if say BUF took Williams. There would just be too many targets to go around for a low-passing volume offense like KC (Maclin-Kelce-Hill-Davis would be #4 out the gate.. and #4 on a low volume team would be awful)

Re: No Corey Davis thread? COREY DAVIS THREAD
A good WR will get his targets, where they go shouldn't really factor much. Jeremy Maclin got 1000+ yards and 8tds with Alex Smith as his QB. Nobody on that team profiles as a WR1.
I can see giving a boost to a player that goes to a great situation, a'la Michael Thomas. But teams change fast in the NFL and you shouldn't be expecting production out of your rookie WR for at least 1-2 years.
