Agree. he is a project though. He needs a really good coach to work on his technique. He has great instincts and seems to always know where the ball is going but he's a bit raw. He will be one of the best in about 2-3 years in the league. Campbell has disappeared. I thought he would be gone by now.

There are only 3 or 4 first rounders who arent projects this year and dont need to improve for the next level.

Way to go out on a limb on that one.

Stokes has the film, stats, and combine measurables. People try to make this too hard when it isnt.

Without his scooter accident, it absolutely would've been LeCounte, IMO.

I said he was overrated a few months ago and got downvoted into oblivion. Looks like I'm not the only one that thought so.

Seems packer fans aren’t too happy but Stokes is a freak. He’s got some polishing to do but I know he’s been doubted his whole career. He’s used to it.

And the value they got when you compare it to the reach of the Falcons drafting Terrell last year it really makes it look like a good pick.

Thought this tweet from a Packers person was interesting. Stokes gave up very little against a plethora of 1st round talent over his 3 years in Athens- 7 catches on 11 targets, 2 TDs and a long of 23 yards. Note the players listed and think about where THEY were drafted.

How many games is that? Just two or did Stokes play in 2018 SECCG too? I feel like he did.

Going in the 2nd or 3rd was always the expectation for Campbell. The 1st rd buzz was within the last week or two.

Campbell never looked impressive to me. Stokes always seemed to be in on the play.

Campbell would be in good position but would never get his head around to make a play on the ball. The receiver would high point it over him because he had no idea where the ball was going. His coverage skills were decent but ball skills were terrible.

Monty just had a chronic history of being banged up, shoulder just being the most recent. He’s a great LB and tough as all hell but a badass doesn’t do you any good sitting in a tent on the sideline or on the IR once a year
