If Coates sits there at the start of the 2nd and we pass on him I will lose it. He is just inconsistent. When healthy and hot he is almost unstoppable downfield.

Coates has better hands than Funch.


Funch looks to be a possesion type WR.
Coates is a guy who can burn players and stretch our field to get pressure off our running game (I said that in my mock)

Why would we draft someone to play crabs/Boldins position when they can't catch?
Vernon has stone hands and did just fine (2013) playing the role I want Coates to play

I agree with your take on Coates and like you I´m a huge fan. Still, at this point he is first and foremost a downfield receiver and he struggles with drops while being that donwfield receiver.

So until he catches long throws with more consistency his hands are a problem and thats why I did not understand your analogy in this thread.

I hope we can take Coates in the 2nd round because I think he can play the Torrey Smith role for us in the future.




Not a fan of Funchess at 15

Funchess is an interesting prospect but I'm not sure which position he would play and I'd much rather see someone like DeVante Parker or Kevin White instead.

a lot of blogs say that Funchess would be moving to TE in the NFL, which was his position at Michigan to start.

the dropsies is what worries me with him, especially with Kap at QB

Yeah from what I've read I'll pass on him...

My pipe dream is trading Harbs (making Gase the HC) to Oakland for their 1st grabbing Leonard Williams then taking DGB or White at 15

BUT judging on Baalke's past they will trade down and grab some underwhelming WR in the 3rd SMH

I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE for this scenario to happen!
