Looking more and more like Winston and Mariota will be gone especially with Jax shopping their pick. This Kevin White kid is looking like a definite top 10 pick and not a bad idea for us at 6. Has the size and definitely the speed to stretch the field opposite decker. Looks like a mix of dez and Julio
I really like Kevin White as that Julio jones type player and would be very happy with him at 6. Cooper is a less explosive player but still a playmaker. I think cooper is more pro ready. Would be happy with either. I think that this is the direction the jets should go. We can't sign dez or DT so go draft someone with the potential to be like them. I would even entertain the idea of keeping Percy. Percy in the slot, cooper/decker on the outside or White/decker on outside.
It was Cooper slightly over White all season but now that everyone's had to time to review the tape and the combine is underway Kevin White is most likely going to be the first receiver taken.
Cooper or White at 6 sounds great, draft a QB in the second or third, sign Orlando Franklin, Spiller and get Fitzpatrick in here.... Worilds on D with K Jackson, Cromartie, Milliner and McDougal at CB depth. Add McCourty and resign Mo...... what's my total $ on that.... might need to restructure some guys but sounds good in theory.
If Mariota and Winston are gone at the 6, I would be happy with either Cooper or White; I bet one of them will be gone by the time we pick, too, but not both. Both players proved today that they are 1a and 1b of the WR class. I still like Cooper a bit better, but both could improve our team. That being said, I'd only pick them if they were BPA. WR isn't my favorite position to draft early, so if an OLB or OT or someone is at better value at the 6th pick, so be it.
comfortable with the idea of drafting white, but then I'm pretty open to drafting any OLB/WR/QB worth their salt at #6. does he punt or kick return?
No he doesn't. If there was any way that he and Cooper were both on the board at our pick (QB's taken) I would love to trade down 3-4 spots if possible and take one at 9 or 10. That'd be the dream scenario.
Watch his film. The great combine numbers are just the icing on the cake. This kid is the real deal. I would honestly take him at 6 without any hesitation if both QBs are gone. Even over Cooper.
4.35 with hands, build. Very impressive. Anyone see big Darren Waller (Ga. Tech) muff a few and think of poor Stephen Hill?
Anyone saying he's a combine warrior didn't watch a game all year. If he had the same hype Cooper had coming into the year he wouldn't have had to prove himself today. He cemented his status that was already at worst the 2nd best receiver in the draft. IMO he's 1A Cooper is 1B. This is not a Stephen Hill for those of you that haven't seen him.
I do think White would compliment Decker nicely though. A shifty Kerley in the slot and big ugly Amaro at TE + predator RB would be awesome. Still need a QB tho.
