[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 952028, member: 6578"] Adams, Cobb (CRAZY HIGH SALARY HIT HAS TO CHANGE), Amari Rodgers, Juwann Winfree, Chris Blair and Rico Gafford.... The chance we enter the season without Cobb and Lazard is possible...Rodgers likes EQ but I am betting tight cap makes that just not going to happen either on the resign front. Finding WR early on is going to be something I strongly think we see by end of Day 2 we will have one added...BUT I sense a double dip coming with a Day 3 swing being taken too. Here are some of my favorite Day 3 5th round or later guys (trying to avoid the possible 4th round droppers). In no particular order: [B]Kevin Austin Jr Notre Dame 6'2' 200lbs[/B] Kevin is the one prospect I'm listing that could not fit the billing of 5th round being there after his incredible combine. However, we are still looking at a prospect that essentially came out after just one year of actually doing anything at the collegiate level (albeit a SOLID year). He was in many ways the ONLY WR threat for ND and Coan this last year, yet time and time again came up with big 3rd down conversions and big plays all year.

Add in one more season like he had in 2021 and the metrics he has, this is a Day 2 minimum level athlete... [B]Tre Turner Virginia Tech 6'1' 184lbs[/B] Tre is like many of the rest of these guys on the list - productive for their schools, but never caught top flight hype or attention as elite WRs - what they did do was be productive. Tre out of the gate at Virginia Tech was a dependable option for a struggling offense. Led the team in 2021 and 2019 in receiving yards, was second in 2020 barely and as a rookie only Damon Hazelton beat him amongst WRs. [ATTACH type="full"]18094[/ATTACH] Tre ran a respectable 4.51 at the combine (faster than Adams did) and relies more on routes and play structure to make yardage happen. A skilled route runner with inside and outside experience could excel in being that depth and build guy in the MLF system ready to step in when needed and where needed (essentially the new EQSB that hopefully clicks). [B]Samori Toure Nebraska (from Montana transfer) 6'1' 191lbs[/B] A small school transferred to Nebraska to bet on himself against higher competition and it paid off.

[B] Erik Ezukanma Texas Tech 6'2' 209lbs[/B] This young man over the last three seasons has put up nearly identical and consistently productive seasons. In order of 21/20/19 years the following were his lines: 48/46/42 receptions 705/748/664 yards 4/6/4 TDs 14.7/16.3/15.8 YPC Like Toure, I have him circled for Day 3 as a guy that has been highly prolific in the college level against above average opponents and is one of those 50/50 to succeed at the next level type guys.

[B] Ty Fryfogle Indiana[/B] Yes, this kid won WR of the year over Rondale Moore and many had him christened to be incredible in the future...Indiana's overall team in 2021 didn't meet expectations, nor did Ty. He is a highly motivated and once pegged as incredibly high ceiling guy. Depending what metric you hold him to the field in you'll christen him as ELITE or GOOD or poor honestly.
