The question must be asked: Is Ladd McConkey better than Marvin Harrison Jr?

It’s gonna sound crazy but predraft me and my homie were talking Ladd and how his comp is AB. Dude is a technician with speed.

Ladd McConkey Gets an All-Pro Comparison Ahead of the NFL Combine

A lot of NFL draft analysts see Ladd McConkey as a slot receiver, but one analyst believes he's reminiscent of one of the best all-around receivers ever, both outside and in the slot.

I said before the draft MHJ was overrated. No disrespect. He was just not generational. Def wasn’t the best player in the draft like scouts were saying. I had Nabers and BTJ over him. BTJ is what MHJ was getting hyped to be. Never saw the hype when watching his tape. Marv might have 3 broken tackles on his whole career mixtape at OSU. Ladd has been severely underrated. Him and Brock were the bedrock of UGAs offense. The player who should’ve gotten the generational hype was Bowers. He was the best player in last years draft. Was the best offensive player as a freshman on a championship team in the SEC. Damn near won 3 straight ships. Now he’s already breaking records with scrubs at QB

This is obvious in hindsight because they had Carson Beck looking like a top quarterback.

No shade to you because I'm sure you had the same opinion prior to last season's draft.

Yessir. UGA is my team so we’ve been knowing just how elite those 2 are. That’s honestly why I still rock with Carson. Had him throwing to Arian Smith this year, who might be the long lost son of Ted Gunn Jr, but much much worse. Replaced 2 first rounders with a two pack of ass. Who wouldn’t struggle. Took a while to ID how special Ladd was but Brock was the best player in the country probably as soon as he stepped onto campus

Pre-draft I said it was highly unlikely that all three hyped WR’s were going to pan out.

Historically, WR’s chosen in the top 10 have not had legendary or even great NFL careers. Thinking all three were going to thrive was a reach.

Prior to Mike Evans (who Tet McMillan reminds me of), the last WR drafted in the top 10 to win a Super Bowl was Travis Taylor in 2000. It took Tom Brady to win with Evans though.

I mean you could say he's a top 10 WR in the league at the moment.

The thing is MHJ is a traditional WR and that's fine the other thing is Kyler Murray is too mercurial a QB to make the most of him unlike Justin Herbert who has the ability to make the most of some one like him.

Ladd McConkey is more of an 'offensive weapon' where he can have an impact in several roles on the field.

Keyshawn Johnson won the SB in 2002. Waa drafted in 96. Torry **** won the SB in 99, was drafted in 99. Its uncommon, but it has happened.

Michael Irvin was the centerpiece to 3 SB winning teams, as the 11th pick
