In all the various mock drafts, is their one player you'd HATE for the Skins to draft at 15?

Agreed, without his gaudy combine, Metcalf would be a 2nd rounder.
Metcalf is a first round talent. He's big, strong, and fast as hell. He's a victim of a poor scheme that didn't utilize his talent. He will be a star in this league.

Could he be another in a long line of work out freaks that do not produce consistently on the field?
Plus with our history of injured players and drafting injured players, Metcalf has had his share. He had a neck injury that caused him to miss the remainder a season and required surgery.

From San Diego Tribune:
"....He likely has a fusion at one level to treat disc herniation and/or ligamentous instability. Many players have continued their career from a single level fusion surgery. ...... If he needed a second level fused, that indeed would jeopardize his career. He should be well healed by now. He also had a foot injury as a freshman, though there is not much information regarding that injury. The bigger issue might not be medical but his poor performance on agility drills compared to his measurable, which were off the charts."

I don’t like Metcalf at all, gym rat with underwhelming tape

What about the scheme didn't utilize his talent?

Ole Miss seemed to be able to use Brown's talent. He could run more than one route though.

Who gives a f*k about agility drills? Can he run a 9 route, a slant, or post route? Those are the routes that will make him elite.

You didn't seem run a lot of slants or post routes. If he didn't he would had three times the productions. He's going to be a star for whoever drafts him.

He can't run the others well enough to keep DBs honest. They'll just back off him and have time to drive on the ball.

Are you blind or stupid? See the part of the quote I posted that is IN BOLD AND UNDERLINED. That is the point I was raising and why he might drop out of being a top 10 or 20 pick in this draft. He has an injury that if re injured could shorten or end his career. The rest of the quote about agility I do not give a fuck about.

I guess 32 teams didn't agree on that.
