There will be Patreon-exclusive scouting reports dropping all draft season long on the Patreon for anyone in the $5 tier! Our first Patron-only video will be Malik Nabers, releasing tomorrow, 2/27/24. Here is the link! -- www.patreon.com/user?u=3409713
Rome Odunze is the absolute TRUTH but Jalynn Polk was a playmaker on the Huskies that gave me Justin Jefferson vibes to Odunze’s Jamar Chase. Don’t be surprised if Polk is a stud in the NFL. Kid makes clutch plays and BIG TIME catches in traffic.
Polk isn’t really Good at anything. He isn’t bad at anything but he doesnt have anything he’s outright elite at hes got a super high floor which is nice
@@Aburner960Perfect WR3 for a team like the Bengals. They already have Ja’Marr and Tee Higgins, but having a solid WR3 on a rookie contract to replace Boyd would be great for them
@@bobbobson8087 i do agree, however. The bengals already drafted their boyd replacement. Charlie jones Jones is a prototypical white slot wr. Really nice route running and will slot right in when boyd leaves. They also drafted Andrei Iosvoas who is legitimately special to potentially be a tee replacement. Idk how he fell to the bengals so late, if he can develop a route running tree? Hes a legitimate gamebreaking wr1 and he still has a decent floor as well.
Both jj and chase are even in my eyes, two types of WRs. Chase will get u an extra 15 yards per play by running guys over, and secures everything. Jj is a contested and vertical demon. Throw it up anywhere and he will come down with it. 2 types of WRs and both have completely changed their offences
just say you didn’t watch washington football. i love jp an hope he does well in the nfl, but he completely disappeared when jalen mcmillan made his full return to the offense. rome was the undisputed number 1 receiver for two years and was without question THE playmaker.
This class reminds me of when Julio Jones and AJ Green where at the top of everyone's board, knocking receivers all back a peg on boards. Leads to amazing dudes who should have been first rounds talents falling to the 2nd, so on so forth
Don’t forget he suffered a broken rib and punctured lung in week 5 and had to drive home from Arizona because he couldn’t fly, then went for 130 and two tds (including the game winner) against Oregon the next game and played out the rest of the season.
One thing I keep noticing about him other than his physicality and contested catch rate vs man: When he plays vs zone, he seems to just know where he should be. There are a lot of plays where he ends up wide-ass open because he quickly finds the soft spot in the zone. He seems to have all those uncoachable traits mentally that a WR would want
Yeah, oddly enough his comp before the draft for me was Keenan lol I think it's such a perfect fit. Dude is gonna learn in an insane WR room. He's fast but his not going to blow your doors off, he's just going to out maneuver, out smart, and then find the ball.
I think this also says great things about Penix too. There is a ton of arm on display there and ability to read matchups that are putting a great player in position to have an advantage on otherwise contested balls. For all the age and durability commentary out there, it seems like a full third of NFL starters today can't make some of those throws.
The age thing is the dumbest football assessment category of them all. If guys don’t make it to their second contract or have the leeway to actually develop for years if needed, who cares how old they are. They’re going to be judged on whether they can play or not, not how good they are for their age.
@@alod247 Age I def find weird as a primary metric. If the guy is good off the gates coming out at 23-25 and he's a legit franchise altering QB (or even a league altering one) with minimal durability issues, consider that a congrats for the franchise for getting a blue chipper pick. Meanwhile the rest of the franchises are combing for high priced proven vets to fuel the rest of their playmakers or risk playing day 3-4 guys hoping they give a Brock Purdy return in results or something.
Brett, the first video of yours that I watched was your Film Breakdown of Malik McDowell. It is truly a joy to see you succeeding in this world. Your knowledge and ability to explain the game of football are out of this world and I wish you nothing but continued success and happiness!
That one catch you were talking about when he looked right then turned around and looked left for the ball & caught it in the in zone....🎉 I don't think I seen Marvin Harrison Jr make that adjustment on the fly... That's Very impressive!!!! That is something we only really seen Larry Fitzgerald or DeAndre Hopkins make.
This title reminds me of the puns i was reading the week of the USC game. Something like "The Colosseum belongs to Rome" I wish i could remember it word for word.
I get that people like Odunze. There are reasons too. But Nabers is still MY WR2. Odunze just doesn’t separate enough for me . Like you said he had COLLEGE corners consistently draped on him. NFL corners that are used to playing against size will limit the advantage that size presented in college. I think even the guys he gets compared to (Hopkins, Chase) had better footwork in and out of breaks where they created catch point separation. Odunze reminds me more of Courtland Sutton
Do you think Rome is a bust? I have seen people say that Rome odunze is Quentin Johnston and that Troy Franklin is better than Rome . I hope that person is incorrect but I’m not sure what to think about Rome either.
@@Cowgirls9ershater I don’t think he’ll be a bust at all. I think his floor is Geremy Davis. I just think Nabers is clearly the better receiver and, frankly, think people putting Odunze over Nabers are doing too much mental gymnastics. Nabers balled out in the SEC and his style of route running and explosive ability is Justin Jefferson-esqe.
@@KevyWhit Yeah I think he will be a stud but it just depends on what a team wants. Rome has the size advantage. I just don’t get why people are saying he is Quentin Johnston.
2:45 that’s a skill us outfielders are taught and drill for years in the developmental stages of baseball. That’s why it’s so important to be a cross-sport athlete.
The comp is Michael Irvin. Both highly physical, great at tracking the ball, fantastic at catching in traffic. Irvin is HOF, nobody is saying Rome is near that - but he plays like Irvin did, though Irvin was better at getting separation. BTW Rome has run a timed 4.3, but he isn't as quick as some of the WRs in the draft. Rome also has some of the dog in him that Irvin did.
2:31 Exactly what a centerfield does. Completely different sport but the same technique. Turning away from the ball to readjust is much harder because you lose sight of the ball as opposed turning to the inside, but you don’t lose valuable momentum you might need to make the catch
Any Giants fans here after Malik and Marvin both were taken before we had a chance to take them? Don’t worry, this guy is a STUD and exactly what we need, size, reliable hands, Route running, experience, prototypical X Wide Receiver
Watching a lot of videos cuz giants have a possibility at all 3 😅 anyone we get I would be happy with tho, I like this guy a lot as well as Nabers and mhj
Elite title Brett! I can’t wait to delude myself into thinking the Giants will take Nabers or Odunze at 6, only to take Joe Alt to play RT (Andrew Thomas at LT). Odunze is a baller!
I don't understand the Rome hype and nothing encapsulates my thoughts better than your words about separation. NFL corners don't give up much separation. Agreed. Rome can't get consistent separation against Pac 12 CBs. I'm so hype on MHjr, Nabers, Thomas Jr, Ladd, and AD Mitchell but how's Rome going to work out in the NFL if he's always blanketed? DHop is a better route runner and more of an outlier than something I would bet on. It would also take the right QB to throw to leverage consistently to a blanketed WR, so you're asking the QB to do a more difficult job. To me, Rome is more of an early 2 or mid 2 prospect.
I’m not gonna say first but just wanted to say I love your videos that have to do with evaluating players. Would love a video on JJ McCarthy. I’m a lot higher on him being a Penn State fan because I watched him play. He seems like a more consistent and smarter Daniel Jones. Worth a first round selection. Unlike Jones
Mike Evans was the comp I had in my mind but Hopkins makes a lot of sense when you think about ball tracking and ball skills (not that Evans is bad there). I wish the Hawks had the draft capital or need to go get him but ya I think he'll be a beast in the NFL.
It’ll be interesting to see if Jim Harbaugh can use what did to stop teams like Ohio State and Washington to stop the Chiefs. Hell that’s probably why the Chargers were so desperate to hire him
Did he though? Odunze still had 82 yards and Penix missed him wide open for a TD. I think most of the credit should go to Michigan's D line for forcing Penix into a bad night throwing the ball.
Will Johnson is so overrated. He held Rome in the end zone which was called, Rome killed him on several routes that weren’t thrown for pressure and Rome killed him on a double route which was caught and on another play which was thrown to the opposite shoulder and wasn’t caught.
Love the title. Is it maybe an idea to name some teams which would be ideal fits to these players? I can imagine for Rome that a place like Buffalo or KC is ideal but maybe some of the more unexpected teams which would be ideal for these guys?
Can’t wait for these top receiver videos. We don’t get to see these routes because the networks hate us. And I can’t wait for the Malik video yes he does melt your face off. Got dammit if only they had a defense
He looks like Drake London. Makes a lot of contested catches in college, great route runner, but not elite speed. Everyone is playing press on him because they aren’t afraid of his speed. To his credit made the tough catches in college, just not sure that can be duplicated at that rate in the NFL.

brett has done the unthinkable. an upload at a “regular” hour😂
With multiple days left before the end of the month as well.
It's always a regular hour somewhere in the world.
Lol it was filmed during SB at the underdog cartel Nation so idk how "on time" it was but we are here for it regardless!
Don't get used to it, lol.
@@CaptCKernelhe still need to edit it.
This title is your Magnum Opus Brett
It's from twitter!
Patomic bombs is pretty good too
All Throws Lead to Rome??? I’m obsessed, what a title😮💨
Copied it from some guy on Twitter
damn well props to that guys i would have copied it too lol@@scottdavidson1664

That D-Hop comp has been staring me in the face all season and I never thought of it. Fantastic Take.
Unbelievably elite title
Bears fans we meet again

Good call

Im sure we will get a Penix breakdown soon. Dude throws a perfect ball.
I have been saying for about a year now, penix will be the emerging QB talent from this draft class… also this class is deep asl with receivers

Man i love everything about your channel, all about it and what you do, the production spot on!
lmaooo i started the video saying it out loud "is that his new house?!?!?!"
BEARS FANS GET IN HERE!
1st jersey I bought this year.......boy is dope!!
This title reminds me of the puns i was reading the week of the USC game. Something like "The Colosseum belongs to Rome" I wish i could remember it word for word.
I was thinking at the opening "damn that's a nice house. Brett is loaded". Glad he clarified
Brett, your technical insight is beyond #1 !!! You are seeing things that no one else sees...and details....are everything!!
When the title is actually straight fire
Bears future WR with Caleb lock it in
If Caleb excels in the NFL the Bears might actually pull a Texans and make a playoff run. Don’t forget they already have DJ Moore
Rome will be gone by 7 giants or titans or even chargers taking him
@@Lyfe2Shortzchargers get bowers and giants get Malik bears get Rome
@@gamothelegend7712titans coach and Gm are leaning towards drafting a WR so if he’s there at 7 the titans will get him
@@gamothelegend7712chargers going Alt
What a privilege watching him thr last 3 yrs. All of em, but Rome was incredible. Favortie Husky all time
Great video, can't wait for him and Caleb!
His ability to show his hands at the very last possible second to keep the db from contesting us unreal
Draft season Brett is the best!

I could see sutton/allen robinson as his floor
His ceiling is davante adams/deandre hopkins
You created the most beautiful monster ever now that he landed in Chicago. Brett with the uno reverse on the kollman curse 🤣
I see Brett wasnt lying about using that quote on twitter 😂
It's crazy to see this cause i remember hanging with him as a kid all da time and now he boutta be a star!
Did you also know that he was already talented as a kid?
He looks like good receiver. I worry about the lack of separation against some of the lesser CBs he played this year though.
What’s next? All Good in the Nabers-hood?
Two videos in one month? What is this lunacy
2:45 that’s a skill us outfielders are taught and drill for years in the developmental stages of baseball. That’s why it’s so important to be a cross-sport athlete.
big shoutout to whoever edits brett's videos for painstakingly rendering them in 4k even if they're 75% kitchen appliance-quality all22 film
Rome is going to be a great WR at the next level

I will be watching this video till the end of time deluding myself that Diggs is a bill

I'm praying Caleb is throwing to him for Chicago next year 🙏🙏🙏
🎉🎉
He's a GRome Man.
didnt even get a chance to mention his route running and production from the slot. this guy is the full package
"he always has corners draped all over him"
That's the problem. What's that going to translate into at the pro level?

I hadn't thought of it but I actually do like that Hopkins comp
I would be stoked if Rome went to the chargers
Yeah but Chargers fans hate him bro, they don’t know ball
Here after the Bears drafted him
Bears got a top tier Wide out. It's on l.
Today is April 30th & I’m so happy Rome is a Bear 🐻 😅😅 thankfully he was in this class, so he fell to the Bears. Can’t wait to see him play.
Rome just makes the difficult look routine. It's like if you were to design and build an X in a lab, chances are you'd get Rome or something similar.
The title of this video is so good I had to click as soon as I saw it in the recommended section
Future Jet. Him and Garrett Wilson 🔥
Crazy how you haven’t made an updated video about cj stroud
Rome for sure, but how bout those next level Penix passes!
Love the title. Is it maybe an idea to name some teams which would be ideal fits to these players? I can imagine for Rome that a place like Buffalo or KC is ideal but maybe some of the more unexpected teams which would be ideal for these guys?
Dude Rome is out of range for buffalo or kc unless they want to trade up
Right, hes definitely going top 10. My Guess is the chargers but if he falls to 9 I think the bears pounce. @@Cowgirls9ershater
@@krissmith9814 I think chargers take bowers. Knowing it’s jim harbaugh and Greg Roman oc he is the player they want
wouldnt surprise me if they went with bowers, Or even OL. @@Cowgirls9ershater
Bear Down!!
As a bears fan I will be saying All Throws Lead to Rome for the next 10 years
Been saying the DHop comp glad to hear I’m not the only one who sees it
Bear down, baby! Came back to re-watch this video now that the draft is over
“Rome is going to be fine” - Nero, July 17, 64AD.
Bet you're jazzed as a Bears fan! Congrats!
Would love to hear your thoughts about Rome now that he’s got a qb like Caleb
Ryan Poles do whatever it takes to get Rome or Malik to pair with Caleb. Trade up a few spots from 9 if you have to!
I doubt he trades up but I do think one of Nabers, Odunze or bowers will be there. I wouldn't mind the bears finding their Kelce.
Can’t wait for these top receiver videos. We don’t get to see these routes because the networks hate us. And I can’t wait for the Malik video yes he does melt your face off. Got dammit if only they had a defense
Bear Down!!!
DAAAAAAA BEARS
Greatest youtube title ever
🐻⬇️ BABY LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO
i will do terrible things to get Rome and Caleb on the Bears
Unless you could Nabers…
Every video starts with a humble brag shot of his crib
That's not where I live.
The first time I saw him was the Washington/Oregon game and I said without knowing who he was, “he’s definitely a first round pick,”
I hope the Titans double up with Hopkins and Rome. That would be a hell of a duo.
Any thoughts on Jordan Travis. For a heisman candidate I haven’t seen any breakdowns on him.
Bruh have you looked up his injury? He probably won't even get to play his rookie year.
He looks like Drake London. Makes a lot of contested catches in college, great route runner, but not elite speed. Everyone is playing press on him because they aren’t afraid of his speed. To his credit made the tough catches in college, just not sure that can be duplicated at that rate in the NFL.
The Bears need to get him
Can you do one video with Steve Smith Sr before the draft? Gotta hear you chopping it up with my Carolina 🐐
I was going to say at the beginning "holy shit is that Brett's house" but no 🤣
Roll call Bears fans.
Giants are a virtual lock for either Nabers or Odunze and that makes me very happy.
The Wr depth for this draft is so vast
Literally 20 yards of YAC ON THIS WHOLE VIDEO!
God it was so fun watching my UW this year
BEAR. TF. DOWN.
Your description of Rome sounded a lot like Ja'Marr Chase, thoughts on this comparison?
DA BEARS
Lots of Mike Evans to Rome's game.
Whats up bret love your content im a bears fan and extremelly happy
Great video maybe your best when it comes to prospect eval
