Wicks looks interesting.
The more I watch this class the more I feel it may set up well for the Bears. Yeah there’s no clear cut #1 WR but I’m still seeing some guys that are intriguing

I suppose so, but does it not also pop up a red flag that he put more value on preserving his draft stock than joining his teammates in the CFP, when they very well could win it all? How about all the teammates who also were risking draft status by playing?
I dunno for certain, of course, but all signs point to his hammy strain lasting the entire season. THAT is definitely a concern. Hamstring strains can become chronic and end careers (esp for speed athletes who have to sprint), can lead to a torn ACL and other compensatory injuries.
Nutshell, if investing a high pick (#1a, 1b or a #2) on a WR, it should not be spent for an athlete with JSN's type of injury. If he couldn't get healthy all season... Good heavens, that's a big ol' RED flag!

And skipping out on a bowl game to protect agains injury is one thing, but the CFP?!

Simply put, no. It's becoming more and more common now. Many players are doing this.

I suppose so, as just realized UGA's defensive captain did so. Oh, well. The shape of things these days :~/

Hyatt had a great year and had to cash in because of it, but even the most die hard Tennessee fans will admit he could have really used another year to prove this past season wasn't a fluke. Year's prior he had a case of the drops. Not the best hands, and I fear he could encounter a situation like Velus did entering the NFL. In that he may drop/fumble one or two passes and have a hard time building trust and regaining confidence.
I also am not sure how utilized he would be in our offense. A guy like Shannahan who can scheme him in open space would have a hayday with him. Hyatt will be a guy who will stretch the field and take the top off the defense. But, for us, I want a security blanket that Justin can go to when he needs a play the most.

My initial take is that he reminds me of another Darnell Mooney. Not really what I would be looking to add to our offense. More of a big body guy. I like the Rashee Rice kid for example.
