I'm hearing some podcasters saying he's in a tier of his own, and he could be THE WR1, or a top 5 NFL WR, and I'm not seeing it. I think he's good, but I think his hype is going over my head.
So you are saying he played college football last year? Ha

I agree on the highlights. I see it more often than not when I watch highlight videos of most WR/RB prospects. Just like Henderson last year...that guy looked electric, but I saw him get touched once in a 5 minute cut up of plays. The disparity in college football makes it hard for my eye to evaluate most of the time. It's why I have to rely on the NFL most of the time to draft players into a tier for me. It's why I really appreciate when people do a film breakdown to show what they see and why it's important. (Like Mike's RB report, or Cameron Giles's Ruggs review)

At least with WRs you can see how they get off the line, how crisp they are in their routes, how much wasted movement they have, and how they catch the ball regardless of how quickly they burnt by the defender from Wofford picking daisies.

Not a major concern for me. Dude is a baller, you see it every time the ball comes his way. Still makes crazy catches, gets open before and after the catch, great athlete... Sometimes you just see a guy and know he's gonna be a star in the NFL and that's the feeling I get with him.

Yeah, but I don't see a star. I see a WR2 in the NFL. I guess I'm just not seeing what you are seeing. To each their own.

Tua with a 13 on the Wonderlic. Worst of any QB. Yikes.

Yeah I was already out on Tua due to the injuries, but a 13 for a QB is almost a death sentence.

Interesting because Tua clearly looks smarter on the field compared to Love. Love's decision making is terrible.

It's not ideal but not the end of the world either, Lamar Jackson scored a 13, Marino a 15, Jim Kelly 15, Mcnabb 14, Mcnair 14 etc etc

Yeah, but Lamar wins with his exceptional athleticism, which Tua doesn't have.

Yes, but the list of successful players around that number is much lower than the higher numbers. The etc. etc. isn't really, there aren't too many more you can find after the ones you listed. Bradshaw, but he had the benefit of an all time defense for most of his career.

I know, I was kidding. Tua is definitely a better pure passer than Lamar though. I would be worried to take him due to his hip and ankle injuries but can't see him getting out of the top 6.
