Burton is saying that Sarkisian likes where they're at with the WR room at this point. Evans would be a speed guy for returns. I've heard similar thoughts on the WR room and most of the roster. That's a change from this fall when the word was that they wanted to find a speedster to add to the WR room.
If all of that is true, it tells us that the mix of Wingo, Moore, Niblett, Butler, Jaggerstone, Lockett, Ffrench, Terry, Dubose and McCutcheon is revving the staff's engine, for better or worse.
I agree with all of this. I don't want draft eligible guys with the hope of getting drafted heading elsewhere in CFB. That said, don't be completely blown away if Blue does somehow join the portal as well in the next two days. Allegedly his NIL ask is absurd, but that's not coming from usual places so take it with a grain of salt.
I would love to see Golden go early and as many longhorns get drafted as possible. Golden is the 4th highest rated WR on their Big Board, behind only McMillan, Burden, and Egbuka. Bond is the 11th highest rated WR and number 79 overall. They view Hunter (#1 overall) as a CB.
I haven't read up on how this WR class is regarded by the scouts and such, but it looks like a really weak class to me. Burden looks like he's straight out of central casting as an early 1st round bust. I watched him many times this season and he's the worst kind of bitchass prima donna WR. That's an easy guy to root against.
