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 only said his measurables are basically the same as jefferson not that he comps to be the same player as him [Reply]
I think it's worth noting Rice played a full season with Buechele at SMU. So, we had access to a some additional information on him. Add in the news from Lefkoe and I really like the pick. [Reply]

He doesn't need you to defend his good name. Sometimes the picks aren't good. Sometimes I'm wrong. Sometimes you are.
The difference is I'm not calling you a retard for it [Reply]

I'll apologize....you just caught some spare flack because you were going with the same shit that oaklandhater was saying. He's a fucking retard. You aren't. [Reply]
I didn't watch a single SMU football game and haven't watched Rice play before.
That said, the haters need to remember that Brett Veach can't beat off properly anymore due to the blisters from 2 SuperBowl rings in 3 years. In Veach I trust.
...and then, the best quarterback in the NFL, who also happens to be the captain of my favorite football team, the Kansas City Chiefs loves him? Bring it. [Reply]
No, he was not generally considered a third or fourth rounder. All of the mock databases had him in the second. I often tried to pick him at 63 and he was gone more often than not.
AT Perry? yeah, he's generally considered a third rounder.
Rice was in the grouping in the second round in everything I saw.
except Zeurlein, apparently.
And if they went and got him, they knew that, because Veach is not stupid. [Reply]
Dont know shit about shit when it comes to a single player in the draft, but from the breakdown of struggling with drops and even in these highlight clips like half of the catches arent clean, is this guy going to be able to handle a Mahomes fastball? [Reply]
