Butler was very good in 2020. It would not shock me to see Uche pop off this year, and he absolutely does flash if you look deeper into things like pass rush win rate. He just needs to round out his game- he was always raw and going to need some time coming out of Michigan. He’s definitely flashed at times when he’s seen the field. It was just harder for him to get on the field with the veteran options in front of him this season. Poor Anfernee Jennings and Ronnie Perkins don’t even exist.

Did you even read what I said
They are switching to zone and those are his skillsets - if they were man to man he would not have been signed because he couldn’t keep up
He is a sound tackler limiting yards after catch and tremendous change of direction skills which is a requisite of zone
Pom pom waiver lol - I said I would bet the under on there 8.5

I love it. Big outside vertical threat. A legitimate weapon for Mac. He just needs to stay healthy

Liked him a ton for years but routinely disappointing. Seems like what Harry should have become though
Always seemingly found a way to do well against Gilmore, he clearly has tons of talent. Just has to stay on the field
Parker/Bourne/Meyers/Agholor is a solid WR room. They all do different things. If they draft one to take over for Agholor next season that would be sweet.

Parker is a perfect player for this offense as currently constructed
If he can stay healthy, he should have a great season. Always seemed to show up against NE in the past.

I'm surprised they traded him to us honestly.
I still want a WR in the draft. But this is a good deal if he can stay healthy.
Heard they're talking to OBJ as well but there's no rush because he's still injured

He is not a vertical threat. He probably gets the least separation in the league. He is good at jump balls, hitches and things that do not require speed. He should be good in the red zone for the three weeks he plays. I came to despise his lack of toughness. Good luck to him, except against the Dolphins.
My Dolphins fan bro in law was not happy so that's how I know this is a good deal

Harry with hands and ability.......That is a good comparison.
Interesting prediction on a losing season. Seems like a lot of people will be ok with that this year. Not me. It's a clear step backwards with no guarantee you make a giant leap forward. An 8-9 season gives the Krafts a lot to think about. I would rip the bandaid off and let the rest of the league "line up" for 70 year old Bill Belichick.

I don't know much but Zion is my guy in the 1st round. I have a feeling his stock will go up, but if hes there I want him.

Genuinely the most troubling thing about this. (Well, that and his health.) Tells me Miami either a) isn't worried about moving him to a division rival at all cause they think he's definitely on the down slope (more than reasonable at 29) and won't help us much or b) the Pats dramaticaly overpaid what others were offering.
If he can stay on the field and be productive he definitely helps the offense. But that's far from a guarantee. Even if he does though I don't think this moves the needle much on their ceiling.

I feel like the 3rd was an overpayment by a round which is what the Pats had to do to acquire him.

Rule of thumb for NFL draft pick value is a future pick is worth 1 round lower than a present year pick. Going by that logic, it's basically dropping from 4th to 5th round to pick up Parker.
I think this probably means no WR in the first 3 rounds this year. I'll assume LB/CB/OL in some order.
