Realistic pick: 10

I think both are "Homer" picks. I would say under 10, unless you believe they will be tossing it to him every red zone trip.

Agreed, 4.

I think 5 is probably a safe number. I hope it is higher, but I'm not even sure it is guaranteed that he will start week 1. I hope he blows everyone away and starts, but the realist in me is saying "not so fast..."

My ideal scenario is CP84 turns it on and suddenly Jarius Wright is the odd man out since we are fighting to find time between Treadwell, Diggs, and Patterson. I know, not likely, but a guy can hope right?

I just wanted to be the dick that, after a bunch of people already went, bid $1.

I think 5 would be reasonable to expect his rookie year (provided he gets meaningful snaps).

4

I don't know if I even care about touchdowns.

I just want to see the kid keep 4th quarter drives alive by moving the chains with big-time catches against tight coverage.

I am with Kapp on this one.

I want Laquon to be Pro Bowl receiver for us, but you know what? I will be so satisfied if he turns out be a Donald Driver type player. Driver was always consistent - despite never having big TD numbers. I hated watching Driver kill us throughout this career, but damn, was he someone I respected as a receiver.

Outside of Laquon, I think our WR personnel is grossly mismanaged. Instead of viewing them as vertical threats, I believe that one should view them as RAC receivers. I cannot help but think the West Coast offense would better fit what we have personnel wise.

I don't have any expectations. Yet. I hope that he is 1st round worthy and he pans out long term. As long as the kid comes in and learns and progresses and helps the team to win, I'm all in.
I thought it might be a fun topic as the offseason drags on.

5, and while I somewhat feel that number is a little bit too high, that is just the feeling im getting.
