[@7wreckers]

I don't really see why its a consensus Nabers>Odunze. Odunze is more technically refined than Nabers, he has the edge in Route Running, Release, Contested catch ability, deep ball tracking. Nabers clearly has more juice and short area quickness and a much better YAC guy due to his elite athleticism. But only ran 1/20th of a second faster 40 than Odunze. Odunze just seems like a more pro ready receiver but Nabers might have the higher ceiling.

[@CadeRathbone]

Solid breakdown. Like this a lot!

[@sanjaykumar-gr6ml]

@@CadeRathbonethank you for putting Luke McCaffery at least on your list! These bozos leave him unranked when he’s literally another puka nacua late round steal. I’d bet my house he’s not just good but an nfl stud!

[@choosecarefully408]

damn: the limited footage shown make the bottom 4 of the tier 4 look élite, as well as many others. Oh, to be a GM in the NFL this season... I've got to find more footage on these guys.

[@sanjaykumar-gr6ml]

@@choosecarefully408 ur tryna be a GM too? That’s sick. I’ve predicted receivers far more accurately than the nfl for years and am tryna get the word out there to get a job w an organization

[@BLAKEx617]

Leggette is ridiculously underrated

[@CadeRathbone]

He’s a stud!!

[@GreenShark-hn7pk]

He is so raw

[@sanjaykumar-gr6ml]

Fax he’s not underrated bro!

[@reyguztv8570]

Had to subscribe bro these tier videos are top tier and good quality im impressed asf

Thank you my man that means a ton 🤞🏼❤️

I remember watching SC and seeing legette..... pure beast!

Brother he is SO talented! 🔥🔥

Thank you very much Tyrick! Appreciate you brother 🤞🏼❤️

Great list and video like the content!

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you very much Jamar!! 🤞🏼❤️

[@malikking3]

Great list you got everyone in there this year's WR's are something special all depends on what a team wants and where they can get it in the draft.

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you very much Malik🤞🏼❤️ appreciate you brother!!

[@Jamar-lg9ob]

Not David White Jalen Coker

[@topguntexas2742]

Great video fam, I just subscribed. Keep up the great work man 👍

Appreciate you big time sir 🤞🏼❤️ you’re the man!!

[@superxbeegaming8803]

Nabers and Odunze you really can’t go wrong with either

[@CadeRathbone]

Ikr!! Twist my arm. They’re both going to be stud wideouts in the league.

[@Black4Cook]

@@CadeRathbone but than they have to be in the same cathegory right?

[@CadeRathbone]

Naw bc I think Nabers has a higher ceiling personally😎

[@trainmap]

Nabers a far superior prospect than Odunze

[@wilsonmajors]

Excellent video for a new channel 🔥

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you Wilson I appreciate you brother ❤️🤞🏼

[@koldtruth4961]

Great video...love the editing 👌 However just a bit of advice: start from the bottom Tiers and work your way up

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you very much brother for the top tier advice I like that a lot🤞🏼❤️Welcome to the channel!!

[@saylessdee8800]

Legette is a mix of Alshon Jeffrey and AJ Brown with Deebo YAC ability

[@CadeRathbone]

I love that comp!!

[@BigSwiggyOne]

Oh I like this. You should do some mock drafts for every team

[@CadeRathbone]

Big Swiggy you read my mind brother. In about a week here in doing 3 round mock drafts for every team I can get to 🔥

[@gamesguitarsandcars]

I think Legette ends up one of the studs of this stacked class. Last bloomer but man does his tape impress. He's got that "wtf just happened" top end speed with a thick frame and very good at those "go get it" balls QBs love throwing. Would absolutely love to see him as a Charger.

[@CadeRathbone]

This is the best Legette breakdown I’ve ever seen lol. “Wtf just happened” is great. Would you want the chargers to double dip at wideout this year or no?👀

[@gamesguitarsandcars]

@@CadeRathbone Yes the Chargers lost their top 2 WRs so they need to double dip again. Its probably R1 then a mid/late guy rather than being able to get Legette. They need explosive players to take advantage of Herbert's cannon and with the new coaching staff the run game should be more of a priority opening up better play action.

[@CadeRathbone]

I like that a lot. This guys got the PLAN🔥

[@sanjaykumar-gr6ml]

Legette is like an underdeveloped MVS with slightly better route running. Doesn’t belong in the first!

[@whitebird357]

Positive narrative of a lot of great WR athletes.

[@CadeRathbone]

Such a great class. Appreciate your support brother 🤞🏼❤️

[@davidburt601]

Keon is a DAWG and will do well

[@CadeRathbone]

Mannnn Keon is SO talented!!

[@davidburt601]

OH YEA this is going to hit

[@CadeRathbone]

Hits different brother 🤓☝🏼

[@ItsHammer]

Bro, not even an honorable mention for Jalen Coker? I know he’s small school, but Steve Smith even said he’s the best route runner in the draft.

[@CadeRathbone]

Aye brother I’m sure he’s a stud I just never got a chance to check him out. Never going to get everyone on the list you know! Appreciate the comment, welcome to the channel! 🤞🏼

[@superbee2281]

Nabers over Odunze👀 I LIKE IT

[@CadeRathbone]

I’m kinda obsessed w Nabers

[@marquisetaylor3711]

I think Casey Washington outta Illinois is a really solid receiver, strong hands, big moments and good build

[@CadeRathbone]

Bro is also a stud you’re right. Great call out!! 🔥

[@RMV1560]

I like Keon a lot, but with the universal polarity on him I’m still torn I would not be upset if my Buffalo Bills took him at 28 and this is a hot but I will take him over AD Mitchell. Mitchel’s personality kind of scares me. I’ve heard he takes plays off when he knows the ball isn’t going his way

[@CadeRathbone]

Interesting I respect it. Are there reports Mitchell has personality issues?

[@Flashyboo]

Nabers is the only player I’d sell house for. Im good with Thomas, Mitchell, Mcconkey, Lagette, and if you can get 2 of these 4 instead of just Nabers I’d prefer that instead.

[@CadeRathbone]

Let em know Flashyboo🔥Nabers can ball and that’s a fact

[@gj6043]

Talented year for recievers.. so many options

[@CadeRathbone]

So many studs 😎 do you have a fav sleeper??

[@Kn1ght12]

Wouldn’t be mad if my bears trade down from 9 to get more picks and draft a dif receiver than the top 3 ones this wr class is so stacked

[@CadeRathbone]

That’s a great point. Just stack talent around Caleb😎what wideout would you like the bears to draft if they lets say traded back to 23 with the Vikings??

[@tommycrawford1183]

Great video! You definitely rated Legette way too low. I think he belongs in great tier but missing out on good tier I think is crazy. Big physical, fast, excellent ability to high point a football over a defender.

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you very much Tommy and totally fair!! 🔥 Legette will be a stud in the right spot!

[@RMV1560]

Have you checked out Cornelius Johnson from Michigan? Also Anthony Gould from Utah (I think) and Jacob Cowing out of Arizona?

[@CadeRathbone]

Did not check out those 3 tbh. I scouted like 24 guys and I thought that was a solid number to stop at bc it’s a rabbit hole at some point haha

[@sanjaykumar-gr6ml]

Respect the grind! Luke McCaffery belongs in the first, Brian Thomas doesn’t, Adonai Mitchell is a bust, Legette is overrated! I’ve predicted receivers all my life it’s all I do. Wish the NFL would take notice of my accuracy. I’d love to share my film grades, my rankings need publicity!

[@CadeRathbone]

You heard it here first!!

[@Coopa3]

did bro just say Devontez Walker catches everything💀

[@CadeRathbone]

What’s up Coopa!! Maybe not everything but Tez can ball for sure 🔥

[@Jamar-lg9ob]

David White Jalen Coker top 10 imo great route runners don't drop nothing good at contested catches big catch radius good catching in traffic solid in yac and catches everything

[@CadeRathbone]

All those guys are ballers for sure 🔥

[@RMV1560]

I think Legette should be in the great he’s quite the athletic freak

[@CadeRathbone]

He’s got such a high ceiling!!

[@burtzy558]

Legette will be big one day

[@CadeRathbone]

He’s the sleeper man!! No limits on his game!

[@lukekomistek6911]

Seems a little stiff at times, but I can’t see a world where a 6’ 1 220 receiver who ran a 4.39 and was super productive isn’t a first round talent

[@Jamar-lg9ob]

Fsu wr Xavier legette perfect for Rams lions kc jets titans ravens imo

[@CadeRathbone]

Oh yeah he’ll thrive it a bunch of places!

[@Sgt_Testicle]

Your editing is really good

[@CadeRathbone]

Thank you very much brother 🤞🏼❤️

[@yunghoopla]

What’s your report on Johnny Wilson

[@CadeRathbone]

He’s on the tight end tier list 😎

[@charlesscott7204]

I honestly don’t think Marvin Harrison Jr will be the best WR from the class, we’ll see how that ages

[@CadeRathbone]

Totally get where you’re coming from. I think he’s just the most nfl ready prospect in a hot minute and that makes him the unanimous #1!

[@LVtheCEO]

Malik Washington from UVA

[@CadeRathbone]

Stud 🔥🔥

[@-Milkman-2037]

I completely agree about Marvin Harrison Jr and Malik Nabers being on the same level. But I would also say with full confidence that Brian Thomas Jr deserves to be right there with Rome in the elite tier. I don’t think that’s debatable at all.

[@CadeRathbone]

Brian Thomas Jr has so much ability I get it 🔥

[@-Milkman-2037]

@@CadeRathbone it’s such a deep class of receivers and I definitely love Rome but man BT has an insane ceiling. Marvin, Malik, Rome and Brian are some really mind blowing guys.

[@CadeRathbone]

Facts. What’s your fav team mr milkman??

[@jeremymccleery1214]

you still think carolina drafts ladd with diontae now?

[@CadeRathbone]

That’s a great question Jeremy. I agree with you and don’t think it’s quite a lock now! They definitely made that move to give them flexibility during the draft!!

[@Jamar-lg9ob]

Think Jalen Coker David White top 2 route runners followed by ladd mcconkey heydan hatten and Ricky pearsal/Romain Wilson my top 5 route runners

[@kiowawright7164]

Steelers please get Brian Thomas Jr or Adonai Mitchel at 20 … please baby please! He will work great in the new system and he can block pretty good

🔥

[@Cheddar123]

Rome is way better than Malik nabers i hope I don’t regret that

[@CadeRathbone]

That’s a completely fair take right there 🔥

[@ryerob4815]

That Worthy analysis is just wrong. You even showed proof by the catches you showed. Those are Quinton Johnston catches aka body catches. He does not have good hands and most outlets say as much. NFL DBs aren't going to allow the ball to come to your chest as often as he likes to do it. WRs that do that tend to not have confidence in their hands because they know firsts hand if they try to go an entire game only catching with their hands they will have 2-3 drops. So they body catch to eliminate 1-2 of those drops. But in the NFL that's going to get knocked out of his arms and he will be in more situations where he can only catch the ball with his hands because a DB will be closer to him than in college.

[@CadeRathbone]

What’s up Rob!! Totally hear you but I’ll agree to disagree. I think worthy does body catch quite a bit but when he needs to extend and make plays majority of the times he makes it happen. Also he’s got excellent ball tracking ability. Thanks for your support brotha!! Enjoy your day!

[@Fjfkdmsmssk]

Keon deserves to be with odunze man

[@Fjfkdmsmssk]

Did you say him to the chiefs, patty throwin to him would be insane because Patrick Mahomes throws dots and the receivers don’t catch it, KEON CAN CATCH ANYTHING!

[@Fjfkdmsmssk]

I have Keon going late first or early second tbh

[@Fjfkdmsmssk]

He’s like my 4th in receiver catagory

[@Fjfkdmsmssk]

1: Marvin Harrison Jr. 2:Malik Nabers 3:Rome Odunze 4:Keon Coleman 5:Brian Thomas Jr.

[@CadeRathbone]

I support the Keon love the dude can straight up ball!!

[@deancorso4212]

Disagree There are 3 top receivers in this class and Thomas is nr 4 I want Bears to pick Odunze at 9 or trade down and draft either Thomas or Legette

Unpopular opinion…but I think Rome Odunze is a bit overrated.

[@CadeRathbone]

Hey king I respect it!!

[@1babysun]

Have to agree with that. I struggle to put him in the elite tier. In fact, Steve Smith felt the same and said Polk will be a better pro receiver than Rome.
