Yeah, I'm totally with him on Golden. He stood out the most to me. And he seems polished and ready to go, too.
Funny how much I agree with Cosell on his evaluations. Though I'm not as impressed with Martinez. But I really like how he does his own thing and doesn't get caught up in the latest "trends" on these guys.
Yeah I don't agree with him on the RBs as much but everyone has different taste when it comes to RB. I just think his comps were off and some of his analysis of the players were off.
I'm with you on Golden, I think the fact that I didn't think of him as a true burner is a good thing. The problem with most true burners is they suck as the short and intermediary stuff. They just know how to burn you down field. The fact that I think of Golden as great without 4.29 speed is just sort of that much more exciting to me.
Golden isn't big but he plays bigger than he is. He catches everything. So he sort of has that ability to adjust and catch balls that you expect from bigger receivers. That 4.29 explosive speed just shows up in different ways then burning people deep. Its just nice to know that he also has maybe potential to be even more.
The guy is 5'11" which is plenty tall. Size, catch radius, athletic ability kind of remind me a little of Odell Beckham without thee crazy. No one thinks of Odell Beckham as small but he is only 5'11". He just plays bigger than that. On the other hand Burden is 6 foot but he doesn't play that size at all. I honestly think he plays more like a short, athletic speed receiver.
McMillan is still my top guy. But Golden isn't far behind for me. It's actually very close. Then Egbuka.
After that I love the Iowa State kids. I really like Royals with those two. And I have guys like Burden and Savion Williams as sort of elite traits that maybe could be great.
