[QUOTE="tynimiller, post: 1062141, member: 6578"] I disagree strongly on the not a project for Golden, his projection in my scouting and my expectation of where his floor is coming in and ceiling potential is honestly why I had Higgins ahead of him and even Royals - because Golden really just this last year, and truly second half of the season started showing a much improved route tree, footwork and skills which he has to continue to grow to dominate at the next level. I've shared elsewhere, while he isn't the pick I'd have done - I 100% understand it because of what he might be able to become - which I personally think he can be that Devonta Smith type production guy for us as his ceiling and his floor to me is worst case we get an elite version of MVS type guy. Golden has to improve mightedly on two things for me personally - his blocking ability...if he wants to stay on the field he has gotta illustrate a willingness to take this role serious, honestly MVS is a prime example of a guy that likely stayed on the field despite struggles because he became a legit willing and skilled blocker. Golden also as he builds his frame is going to have to learn to fight through contact both in press man plays or after the catch, he has been very easy to tackle. Elite athlete, well above average hands, a refined route tree with young branches, excellent footwork and explosiveness that cannot be coached or taught. There is a lot to like in him for even the harshest critic. [/QUOTE]
