Me neither.
Although I'm sure someone will point out that it happened two years ago. :lol:
I'm not sure if you were joking or not but 2021 was kind of a precursor to this. They didn't hit to the extent 2023 has though

There were a lot of doubts about Waddle and Smith's size. Elijah Moore was a brief hit. Toss in Rondale Moore and Tutu Atwell and there were a lot of early WR that have turned out alright. Of course, I have much higher hopes for several WR in this class than I ever did Rondale/Tutu.
Yeah, Waddle, Olave, etc.. but they were still 180+. Before this season, I conceded, and was like, ok, 180 is the new 195. But now we're seeing this year so many sub-180's do well. 160's and 170's.
That's fair. Personally I just see below 190ish and put a small label on them, which means a lot less these days anyway. Idk if there is a real difference between 180 and 160 at this point for these guys, but you have a point. Prior to this year weight wise we only had Smith as a lightweight and he was 1st rounder with all the accolades. Now we get Tank Dell, Downs and Addison all under 175. Most impressive is how these guys aren't just typical slot WR either. Throw Zay into that mix even though hes a little over 180

Me neither.

100% joking. I just picked a random year. I didn't even remember those guys were in that year when it popped into my head. :thumbup:

but I was completely serious when I agreed I can't remember a rookie class with this many small WRs doing well (and Achane)

Should hear more towards end of week. I doubt he will practice today and they'd be smart to just sit him this week with the bye upcoming

Totally expect him out w/ bye coming. Too bad. But the smart move for the team and him.
