[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 963882, member: 6578"] Concur with Capt here. The team has truly excelled in finding legit WRs in the second round of the draft for years now. That isn't to say they have done abysmal in middle and late rounds...let's look at the last few decades years (not including this Aprils): 2007 - David Clowney (5th)...never played a game for us but did put up two 100+ yard seasons with others...underachieved by not making our initial. 2008 - Brett Swain (7th) was precisely if not hair more than one can expect out of a 7th rounder. 2013 - Charles Johnson (7th) & Kevin Dorsey (7th) both being Day 3s didn't do anything more or less than expected for a WR in their draft spot. 2014 - Jared Abbrederis (5th) & Jeff Janis (7th) - Jared could never click and stay healthy if memory serves...honestly Janis overachieved given his ST performances alone, chipping in some memorable offensive snaps as well is far more than someone can expect. 2015 - Ty Montgomery (3rd)...not a true WR and not a true RB...still in the league and while I give to the stance he underachieved for a 3rd rounder - it wasn't by too terribly much, and honestly I still like his chance in our system had he not had that terrible fumble. 2016 - Trevor Davis (5th)...he could return kicks for sure...but never turned into much else. Cannot really say one should expect more or less out of a 5th rounder...wash to me here. 2017 - DeAngelo Yancey (5th) & Malachi Dupre (7th)....IMO Yancey underdelivered slightly as unlike Davis in 2016 he never provided anything...Dupre never clicked but as a 7th no expectations. 2018 - J'mon Moore (4th) & MVS (5th) & EQSB (6th).....Moore underachieved, MVS blew out his expectations and EQSB was what would be expected for a 6th rounder. 2020 - Amari Rodgers...too early to tell, not a good start year 1. 5th round on I'd say their averages of "hits" is fairly good as in the last 15 years of those they took 11 guys...and of those you got MVS, Janis, EQSB and Trevor Davis who to varying degrees were above their slots in production....rest zero noteworthy contributions IMO. That is just shy of 40% "hit" rate and 10% bonafide awesome rate (MVS) in that area. [/QUOTE]
