A look at my top WRs for next year

[MiamiDolphin618]

Im not as high on Reid as most...solid player but he is no Eric Berry IMO. Im curious to see what type of year Werner has and where his draft stock lies. I see a great player...but he is still somewhat flying under the radar as far as being a top 10 guy. Mingo...that kid is going top 10..probably top 5 just based off his tools alone. I like Allen more than both Floyd and Blackmon honestly...

I haven't seen enough of Reid to make a real evaluation, but he's one player I definitely want to watch this year. Those LSU vs. Alabama games are must see for sure. That's high praise for Allen, but I can see why you feel that way. He has the ability to make those great plays that only the best do. As an aside, but related, I was watching America's Game yesterday about the 1975 Steelers and they were showing some of the amazing catches Lynn Swann made in the super bowl vs. Dallas. One of the Steelers seconday guys was quoted as saying (paraphrasing here) that it was a good thing Swann had such a great game because Dallas was that good. In other words, you take those plays away and the Cowboys win. You need those types of players and right now, besides Bush, I don't see anyone with that game changing ability on offense.

This next draft is pretty deep at some positions we need help at. Legadu and Chad are our starting WRs at the moment...not only is that not a good thing but they are also both on 1 year deals. We need to pony up and look at getting Tannehill someone to develop with..or a couple. Here is my preliminary list of WRs

1. Keenan Allen - Cal
2. Marquess Wilson - Wash St.
3. Robert Woods - USC
4. Andre Debose - Florida
5. Justin Hunter - Tenn
6. Da'Rick Rodgers - Tenn
7. Stedman Bailey - WV
8. Tavon Austin - WV
9. Ryan Swope - Texas AM
10. Kenny Stills - Oklahoma

These are my top 10 guys...before the season. Im sure there are some under the radar guys but this list is pretty much higher profile guys that I know about because Ive seen them play. Most of these guys are only juniors so they may or may not come out. Id say the top 3 on this list are all first rounders..and then after that its anyone's guess. What do you guys think of this list and what does yours look like??

You're probably the only person aside from myself that has Keenan Allen and Marquess Wilson as #1 and #2.

I'm really hoping we pick up Swope, he knows the system and the QB.

Well maybe right now...but I feel pretty confident that it won't be too long before a lot more people have Allen and Wilson at the top of their board. Lots of people overrate Woods a bit I think...which I think he's a fine receiver...just isn't quite as complete or well rounded as Allen and Wilson IMO.

Whats funny about Keenen Allen was he was initially Bama's prize commit... as a safety. Dude would have made an AMAZING DB. I didn't see much of Cal last year, but I remember him being amazing as a Frosh.

A name to keep an eye on is RS Sophomore Kyle Prater from Northwestern. Same recruiting class as Woods but redshirted after getting hurt and he wanted to move closer to home. He also never really wanted to play for Lane Kiffen and almost decommitted from USC but felt that he should follow through with his commitment.

[TedSlimmJr]

The spot for the #2 WR behind Keenan Allen is wide open in my estimation, and will continue to be as of draft day. I don't see there being a consensus agreement on that at any point.

Eric Berry was on campus in Knoxville this summer working out and he raved about Hunter, who appears to be fully back from the knee injury for the most part. Apparently Hunter beat him during some reps. Berry called him pro-ready right now.

I have no problem buying that.

If we come out of next year´s draft with DE Werner, and 2 WR´s from that list (Bayley, Swope for example), we might be moving in the right direction...

[MiamiDolphin618]

Even after the preseason games Im still confident this team will win 6 or more games...but maybe not. If they are as bad as they look and we end up with a top 5 pick but Tannehill shows that he is our guy...we need to hope that someone who really needs a QB is willing to move up at a steep price ala Washington. Guys like Barkley and Logan Thomas will be in high demand.

[ckparrothead]

You don't want to force any position. If Miami's situation really is as bleak as it looks right now (rookie QB, a bunch of no talent receivers, suddenly leaky defense)...then we're picking high. You've got to get the highest impact player you can regardless of position.

It won't be Logan Thomas or Matt Barkley or Tyler Wilson.

Could be Keenan Allen. Could be Barkevious Mingo or Bjoern Werner. Hard to say.
