    Probably why they've won so many Super Bowls.

    Zay Flowers looks like a 14 year old
    Formerly known as JustinHarrell.

    I read some negative stuff about Flowers - that he didn't really live up to the hype. Just what I read, so as a fan, I'm glad they didn't take him. Also don't love that Tennessee kid, Hyatt, I think his name is, that everyone's floating for day two.

    I don’t want Hyatt. He’s nowhere near as good as Watson was last year. Much smaller, even slower, gives you little RAC. A Will Fuller like, one trick pony.

    I’m not sure what reports you may have read, but Flowers is a solid dude who cares about football. His downside is small hands and small catch radius.

    That explains why our pick had more hot chics around him.

    Agree with Harv on ZayF, he's a good kid from what I've heard. Had to "bulk up" to 180 for the combine. He's 5'9" and when you're that size with 6' corners covering you, your QB is going to have a very tight window. Also, being that small means you're less likely to last 8-10 seasons.

    As for Hyatt, the Will Fuller comp isn't far off. GB supposedly likes him, and at 6' with long arms he's a little wiry, but again he's 175-180. If you have him out there he's not going to block, but if you run him and Watson on 9 routes with Doubs and a good TE in there as well you could stress a defense. They have Bo Melton, Hyatt's like a better version of him.
    I'd just press and mug the hell out of him until he proves he can beat it. I think he's very explosive but IDK about his agility.

    Seeing Van Ness in black and gold reminds me of TJ Watt now. That is probably what finalized this pick for gutes.
