Bongo59 Posted May 8, 2021 Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 I think Roche is going to be a Probowler. He was my favorite edge player in the whole draft. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Dez Fitzpatrick, WR, Titans Round 4, No. 109 overall Fitzpatrick was a late watch for me during the pre-draft process, and let me tell you, his film made my day. As the draft approached, most of the later prospects I watched barely looked draftable. But for some reason I'd missed Fitzpatrick on my first pass through the receiver class. And he was an easy midround talent on film. At 6-2 and 208 pounds, the crispness in his routes was immediately noticeable, then I saw him take run-of-the-mill, chain-moving routes and morph them into big gains because of serious acceleration and speed down the field. He ran 4.49 at the Louisville pro day, and I think he's every bit that fast, if not faster. In Tennessee, gone are Corey Davis, Adam Humphries, and Jonnu Smith. The Titans desperately needed a jolt of receiver talent, and absolutely got that with Fitzpatrick. He actually set a career high in touchdowns as a freshman at Louisville (nine) and ultimately caught 154 passes at nearly 16 yards per grab across four seasons with the Cardinals. He's decently big, with the route-running nuance, and explosion to step in as the No. 2 to A.J. Brown right away. tgo 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsntLifeFunny Posted May 8, 2021 Report Share Posted May 8, 2021 (edited) His Freshman year was impressive. I think he could be a 1k+ receiver down the road. If he can bulk up a little without losing speed he’s our best bet at a legitimate number 2 by the end of the year.

He displays average-level pass-catching skills to be a reliable target in the KeeSean Johnson mold." After briefly researching, this guy is a faster Tajae Sharpe. Who’s scouting report is this?

He is consistently way way off what actually happens I’ve always thought Lance Zierlein’s over rated..

Doesn't possess the strength or long speed to make a living as an outside receiver, but he can be an extremely effective weapon from the slot as a pro, turning short third-down throws into first downs. Diggs can make things happen when he has the ball in his hands and could become a consistent, productive weapon for the right offensive coordinator." — Lance Zierlein, NFL.com Bottom line is that even the draft Pondens are way off on their evaluation’s all of the time. Taywan Taylor's pro-comp was Stefon Diggs. When we knew that he was good. I'm actually surprised the Zierlein hasn't scrubbed that from his initial report.

socaltitan Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Stefon Diggs was a 5th round pick. You just never know sometimes. Cortland Finnegan 7th round pick. I would probably set the expectations low on Fitzpatrick on purpose, but we'll see what he turns into. begooode, and TitanHeart2020 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
socaltitan Posted May 11, 2021 Report Share Posted May 11, 2021 Production in college can be deceiving sometimes. It's more about the skillset and how it can translate. George Kittle was used predominantly as a blocker at Iowa. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s really good at comebacks and curls. He also has some straight line speed. No part of his film is impressive, but as the video noted at the end he does have a unique skillset and some explosiveness.

Can only hope for more. There were just better options available (it seems) at 108. Edited May 11, 2021 by 2ToneTerror Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
