Did shanahan pull another rabbit out of his hat with Danny Gray?

Postby Ski mask ready » Mon Jul 04, 2022 10:53 pm

Dudes metrics are off the charts and he’s 6’2”. He’s not a tiny guy but has cheetah speed. Thoughts about that shanahan will do with him is his system?

His speed is great (4.33). But not sure about his others. 7th % Burst, <50% agility.

He's also 6'0" (those 2 inches don't really make a difference just wanted to make sure we are all on the same page)

Then there's the issue of him not declaring, or even breaking out, until his 4th year. He's a JUCO transfer but not sure I should let his poor production slide because of that.

Then he goes to a run first team as their 4th option in the passing game at best. I steered clear in my drafts. He got 3rd round draft capital (barely) and I like him over someone like Velus Jones but he's somewhere in the WR15-18 range in this class for me

Is he better than Jauan Jennings? I don't think he's anywhere close to Deebo or Aiyuk. I just don't see a path here.

Deebo gets traded, Aiyuk goes back in the dog house, Jennings tears his ACL in preseason (week 3, first drive, 3rd down play), Danny Gray is a championship team savior!

Seems like a situational deep threat to me. His blocking was hilariously bad from what I saw which is a big problem in a Shanahan offense. His route running is weak. His agility is weak. I’m not seeing it.

overdrafted. i think the niners spunked both their 3rds.

anyway, he might get on the field in 4 WR sets IF he shows he's better than mccloud. jennings blocking is too good to have gray on the field consistently, if no one gets injured.
