southtown24th Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Ruggs' speed alone helps both the running and passing games because it forces safeties into more passive positioning. He can work all three levels and his ability to turn slants and crossing routes into big gainers could make him the favorite gift under the tree for a quarterback and offense in need of an explosive weapon. He has quick, sure hands to handle off-target throws, but learning to release, separate and catch against physical NFL cornerbacks could require an adjustment period. He won't rack up the targets, but has explosive speed and talent to imprint on games with regularity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deucebag Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 IDK, the last thing I want is Santana Moss part two, a WR with elite speed who takes 4 years to fill in his frame before he can become a complete WR. 1 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lupz27 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 While I love the top 3 prospects at WR in this draft I don’t believe any of the 3 will be true outside #1 WR’s, though I do believe this draft will produce at least 3 true outside #1 WR’s, and possibly 1 elite Micheal Thomas like WR from Rd 2, or Keenan Allen from rd 3. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You missed my point, it took him a couple of years to build the strength and physique needed to be a productive receiver, once he did, he was all-pro caliber. My point is, we cannot afford to wait a few years, we have nothing at WR and need to draft two who will be productive from day one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedBeardedSavage Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Probably best not believe anything we’ve heard from the start of this month until we actually draft. Going to be a long two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetscrazey Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Makes sense, Gase would want a vertical threat to replace Robby. There are 2 primary WR patterns in the Gase offense: The go route and the shallow cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruggs is closer to Tareek Hill than Santana Moss. Plus Moss played in a different era that was much more physical and hands on. Ruggs, he has a wirey build, very long arms, tremendous leaper and plays bigger than his 5'11 190 would suggest. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greenbloodblitz Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Santana Moss was an overrated pussy who always ran out of bounds to avoid getting hit and was afraid to go over the middle ..and when he did he would drop the ball.. every single time! I was elated when we traded him to the Redskins and got Coles back as he and Wayne were tough little bastards! Santana Moss was straight up soft! Not a JET! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruggs is big enough to be ready to go, he's basically the same size as Tyreek Hill & Moss. He's not my 1st choice at WR but he could be something special. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great punt returner too. Who gives a f*** about what he did in Washington!? When in N.Y. he was soft going over the middle and avoided contact. Moss ran out of bounds, hit the ground or droped the ball. Trust me I was there.. that was the "Jetskins" era under Terry Bradway. It was ridiculous. I couldn't believe what I was seeing and I was so happy that # 87 came back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tdoublee Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 He's taller and faster than Santana coming out of college. He could be Desean Jackson or he could be John Ross. By all accounts he's a high character guy. With that kind of talent, I think he's gonna be a very successful pro. I wouldn't be mad at all if we draft him, but I think this is a smokescreen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil O Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 57 minutes ago, jetsons said: @ #11... no Not at 11. Ruggs at 16 After swapping with the falcons. Take the best OT with the 2nd, WR with 1st3rd, Bryce Hall/ Troy Pride Jr with 2nd3rd, best center with our third rd 3 pick(falcons), Fourth round another wide receiver or edge rusher and then snag a quality guard in the fifth and a kicker in the sixth… That would be sweet in the scenario I think.
