2022 Official Bolts Draft Superthread

[Topcat]

Treylon Burks wears special order size 5XL gloves. He has huge hands. As a WR, this helps him do much more than shake hands.

Yep...those 5XL manos could also help him SHAKE OFF defenders...

Please God let us find the next Cooper Kupp somewhere in the mid-rounds.

We need more qb to push their way up the board. That means more talent being pushed down.

If that does not happen could see the Titans or Lions possibly interested in trading up from the bottom of the first. Or a team picking top ten in the 2nd. Maybe the Cowboys for J Williams, Burks, or a corner.
Agree with others who mentioned maybe trading down in the 1st and trying to trade some of the 6 6th and 7th rd picks to move up.
Then again, maybe many 6th and 7th rounders coming out project better than the current roster 48 through 53? Maybe with the help of Staley better picks will be made in the late rounds?

Drafting is tough. You go in with a plan and its blown up by the time it gets to your first choice.

I ended up "completing" the O with a starting RT, a great TE and a big back. I focused on the defensive backfield on D. Belton is a big nickle safety and Monday is a core special teamer. IDL has to be fixed in FA. There just weren't IDL available when I chose. As I said, drafting is hard and you don't get a second chance. This is all BPA at position of need.

Try 2, more beef, but not much better

Skyy is a productive 4.3 guy, He could be our Tyreek Hill.

Sterling is a 6-4 S/LB hybrid. I'd still like to beef up the back end of the D.

This is a guy I would overdraft.

Draft Profile: Bio

Skyy Moore was a high school sensation he was a two-time Allegheny Conference Offensive Player of the Year and was also named Defensive Player of the Year, also was the #36 ranked player in the state while playing played defensive back and quarterback. He became the first player in conference history to rush and pass for 1,000 yards in back-to-back seasons.
He wasn't widely recruited due to his position being ambiguous but still had offers and ultimately ended up with Western Michigan.

As a freshman, Moore was switched to wide receiver and instantly had an impact starting 12 games and making 51 receptions for 802 yds and was awarded with a first-team All-MAC selection.
Moore played in five of six games during the pandemic-shortened season in 2020 and finished the year with 25 catches for 388 yards and three TDs. He ended up as the All-MAC honoree by Athlon Sports as a result.
In 2021 NFL scouts began to take notice and in 14 games he dominated with 94 receptions for 1291 yds and 10 TDs, with only 4 drops on 125 total targets. This was the third-best in the country in receptions per game at the FBS level. Moore was once again given a spot on the All-MAC first-team.

Scouting Report: Strengths

• Has incredible top speed with rare suddenness and lightning footwork to create in tight areas with elusive shiftiness and change-of-direction skills.
• Has the strong soft hands any NFL wide receiver coach and quarterback would covet - has only 7 drops his entire college career
• Recruited as corner which gives him a unique feel for the game
• Has good body strength to squirm out of tackles with the coordination to maneuver his frame between defenders.
• A excellent route runner - who obviously is a student of the game
• Fluid athlete with explosive burst and speed to stretch the field and breeze past defenders. Has a quick first step and gets to top speed in a hurry.
• Is surprisingly difficult to bring down and difficult to tackle for smaller corners
• Is fearless over the middle and effortlessly splits cover 2 zone schemes deep
• Moore possesses great hands and elite top-end speed he has torn through defenses at the FBS level up
• An impressive athlete with very quick acceleration to reach his top speed quickly and stretch the field. Very good body control and smooth movements. Plays fast and explosive.
• Fits a zone system, can sift through oncoming traffic and explode through tiny creases and cutback lanes. Elite, darting stop-and-go acceleration. Dangerous in the open field.
• Tracks the deep ball over either shoulder and brings in passes fluidly without breaking stride downfield.
• Has a knack for getting open and is a quarterback's best friend - passers just need to toss the ball in his area and he'll come down with it. Has a total QB rating when targetted of 116.2 throughout his college career

Scouting Report: Weaknesses

• Moore is a little undersized to play outside at the next level and may be limited to a slot role
• Does not always use his hands to secure deep throws, allowing the ball into his pads and chest.
• Hasn't faced as much top-level competition as you would hope - which makes him somewhat of a question mark
• Offers little in the running game as a blocker

Scouting Report: Summary

Skyy Moore has gone under the radar of NFL scouts for the most part of his college career, but this is changing. He has elite top speed (could easily run in the 4.2's at the combine), fantastic agility, and acceleration combined with consistent natural soft hands. He, however, hasn't been tested by a lot of top-level talent and so his likely production remains far from certain, he also doesn't have ideal size for the position.
Currently, we expect Moore to be a likely third or fourth-round selection in the 2022 NFL Draft - however, we think that he is seriously undervalued and has both the talent and athletic ability to make a serious impact in the pros as a deep threat and he represents value as a second-round pick.

Skyy Moore

These days, Moore wakes up in sunny Tampa, Fla., as part of a training program under renowned football performance coach Yo Murphy — known for his work with former high-caliber NFL draft prospects such as DeVonta Smith, Henry Ruggs III and Darius Leonard. Moore was connected to Murphy through Eskridge, who trained with him last year, and is one of roughly 25 prospects currently in the program. He plans to remain in Tampa leading up to the NFL combine in March.

Take Dean from Georgia and be done with it

[Bolts4ever213]

No need to draft a player who only plays two downs in the first round. We already experienced that with Murray. Best player at a position of need.

Murray can play 3 downs. He just sucks at it right now.
