its pretty doubtful hes picked as high as rounds 1 or 2. And I think hes awesome, but there are a lot of other awesome WR's in the draft too.
I really think hes round 3 at the highest, and quite possible that he drops to round 4.

there is lots of talent in the draft . speed, height/arm length and jumping measurables get noticed at the combine. without those, he needs to convince teams in interviews that he has the other things that don't show up on paper.

Late 4th-early 5th is where I think Bryant will go.

But if he is there when the Packers are picking in the 4th round, I really hope they give him a good look. They've had some success picking receivers in the mid to late rounds.

Feel bad for Bryant running a 4.62- but he had to know he'd run around that in his training right? And if so, why run then?

Puka Nakua ran a 4.57, Cooper Kupp ran a 4.62 also. 40 times definitely aren't the end all be all but also won't help his draft position any.

When NFL scouts go ape-s*** over whether an offensive tackle's arms are 33 7/8 inches or 34 inches, you realize scouts spend too much time on the measurables and not enough time just seeing whether someone can make football plays.

It's always easier to justify not picking someone based on some arbitrary number instead of whether they can just do the job on a football field.
