One of the best WR prospects at the catch point and winning leverage mid-route. He consistently sets up defenders to put them on his back, locates the ball, and attacks it at the highest point.
Rashee Rice was drafted with pick 55 of round 2 in the 2023 draft class. He scored a 9.53 #RAS out of a possible 10.00. This ranked 145 out of 3062 WR from 1987 to 2023. https://t.co/lwD9tvVPvvpic.twitter.com/YjucxErSE1

I like Rice, and I thought he or AT Perry would be a nice pick in the 3rd round. I am not sure how anyone would give him a mid 2nd round grade though.
Mingo I see as AJ Brown.
Rice I see as Hopkins.
But everyone had him in the second round. Like everyone. This is not a reach. You can not like the pick, but it's only a reach if you can't figure out why Hyatt is still on the board. [Reply]

Sure, but come on, this is over the top. If Rice's comps are these guys... OPY & HOF calibre, why in the hell did he fall that far? I mean damn, this kid is already our best receiver since Hill and hasn't even suited up yet. I sure HOPE he can be that guy, but this reaction screams hyperbole.
JuJu comps makes sense. JuJu++, even better (not outside of possiblity). ROD fucking SMITH level? Jefferson & Hopkins level?! Damn. So why'd he not go top 10? Top 20? If he IS that guy, cast the statue of Bunt Varch N O W. [Reply]

IMO he plays like the guy that was opposite of Jefferson. I am getting serious Adam Thielen vibes off what I'm watching right now. [Reply]

When we drafted Bolton....I said I hated it. Why? Because I admittedly didn't watch a ton of tape on him. I ate my crow but I also didn't come in and ****ing yell at everyone like I knew more than they did.
Yeah I didn't do any of that so maybe take a back seat for a bit Franchise you're usually a good poster but nobody is trying to ruin your good time [Reply]

Nailed it. When we were a suck ass team I could understand draft night. Now being a proven winner I just don't get it. [Reply]

Your first posts were these.

A possession receiver with average speed who wins contested catches OVER HYATT?

Guess what sometimes he doesn't get it right

Just not with wide receivers.
Three posts shitting on Veach because he didn't take the guy you wanted. You only casually mentioned that he was a possession WR. [Reply]

No, everyone did not haver him in the 2nd round. I could post more proof, but its not worth it.
I like the player, quite a bit actually, but it was a waste of draft capital to move up.
