Well, he's quick, and Jefferson will guarantee Addison gets single coverage. So even though he's light, maybe he'll be able to exploit the coverage effectively? And he could handle punt returns.

Not a Red zone threat, I suspect, but they have Jefferson & Hockenson.

I don't think KJ can command enough attention away from JJ, hope Addison can do so.

I was hoping for a trade down, but this was all right.

Good points. He does run every route on the tree. I was just hoping for some help on defense.

and had pre-determined WR if they were going to stay, Addison being the fourth WR drafted in the last 4 spots (ie, like we scooped up whoever was left)

Chalk that up to an OC / former QB HC not liking Levis or Hooker at #23. Maybe they're not as high on Osborn as some in here as well.

Feel bad for Flores unless we get our hands on some CBs.

Addison will bring some juice across from JJ.

Yeah. I'm surprised the Giants weren't willing to trade up to guarantee themselves Banks. But maybe they were fine with Porter.

Top end WR runs out with Addison and maybe Josh Downs. So I'm not that surprised they took him. They can get a decent CB prospect later in the draft.

Thinking Kwesi is still all in on Cine, Booth, Asamoah. All in all, the defense is a mystery.

You aren't alone.

I expected Banks or Porter. Especially with that WR run. I'm not thrilled with taking the last guy in the tier, but he is comparable to Flowers and Johnston.

The TCU WR has big problems with drops. Doubt there is a consensus on the order of the four of them.

A USC trifecta is coming next year.
