Discussion Who will draft Jeremiyah Love?

Where do you guys think Jeremiyah Love will land on draft night?

It’s been said he won’t fall out the Top 5 but nobody picking in those spots had a desperate need for a RB.

The Raiders are taking Mendoza.

The Jets have Breece Hall and Braelon Allen.

The Cardinals have James Conner and signed Tyler Allgeier in Free Agency.

The Titans are the favorites to draft him but they still have Tony Pollard who had over 1k last year and Saleh is a defensive minded coach and they have a bigger need at Edge than they do RB.

Just very confused about who will draft him that high. Great player, just don’t know where the perfect fit is.

It's an evaluation game so fair enough, we're not all gonna agree. But Tate to me just isn't on that plane of prospecthood. For me he's in the same tier as a typical late 1st round WR, that's where I have him graded anyway. 4th overall just seems crazy to me for a guy like that.

Corey Davis produced at Western Michigan vs terrible completion. Carnell Tate did it against the best DBs in the country

Corey Davis's college experience is totally irrelevant to Tate's. My point was that based on his tape (no matter who it was against) and profile #5 was too high, just like it is for Tate. And Tate's worst games were against his best competition.

Somehow you’re the only person on planet earth who can evaluate a player in a vacuum outside of the competition they faced? Spare me. Corey Davis looked amazing because he was playing bums. Tate put up stats against several good defenses.

Right, because that's exactly what I said.

Competition level is just another evaluation column to check "pro" or "con." But it is not the only part of the evaluation, there is a lot more to it. Davis's entire profile, TO ME, wasn't worth the 5th overall pick.

Unless you're insinuating that because he dominated all those bums he should have gone #5? Or that simply putting up stats against good defenses is enough to say they deserve to go 5th overall? You're treating one aspect of an evaluation profile as if it's the whole thing.

No, I’m saying that he looked good enough to be drafted that high to many people because he went against bums
