Isn't Funchess slower than a month of Sundays? Heard he was more of a H-back/TE type. DGB gets me really excited till I think about Josh Gordon and Justin Blackmon. Lots of "ifs" and red flags to go along with Megatron and AJ Green talent. There is a ton of size and talent in this draft and we could trade back and get one or just get one in round two. Its nice to have some options and an earlier draft pick. I guess its a little silver lining.

I refuse to fal in love with more WRs for Baalke to pass them all up. It was really hard watching Beckham Jr, Benjamin, Moncrief, Bryant etc etc etc having great rookie years and knowing that we missed out on an exceptional WR class. I am really hoping Ellington makes huge strides in year 2.

Wow! This guy is totally on my radar now. Loving the size and watching him run away from dbs. Looks to have good hands as well. 100% endorsement.

I agree. What impressed me the most though was his ability to adjust to the ball. I think that is huge when you have a QB that isn't deadly accurate.

That guy looks legit. He reminds me of Dez Bryant. Similar size, explosiveness, ball skills, and big mitts. Definitely interested to see what his combine #s are going to look like.

I was trying to think of his NFL comparison and I think you nailed it with Dez.

sign me up. Looks good and wouldn't cost a first. What's not to like? My only concern is if he needs development, we don't exactly have a stellar track record with developing receivers (or choosing them, for that matter).

The thing that stood out to me about him, in his highlights, was that he caught the ball with his hands pretty much every time. He looks like a natural catcher as opposed to someone like V.Davis that still has trouble not using his body to catch.

Very good point. He tracks the ball well and reaches out to grab it. Doesn't appear to have blazing speed, but good enough. Wonder what his forty time is?

Agree. Love the way he hands catches the ball from all angles & spots on the field.

Hey Buck do you have that kid from Georgia tech Wallers numbers? I know it won't be much because they don't pass but he definitely fits the BIG wr bill at 6'5". Just curious because I remember reading something like he was an man among boys at the Shrine practices and was open even when he wasn't because of it

I think Waller could be a TE conversion project. GT requires their WR to do a lot of blocking.

Scouts compare him to Kenny Britt...when I watch film he seems to catch the ball with his body vs his hands like Dez and his route running is sub par.
