Pistol GB posted:I would have been happy getting him 2 rounds earlier.
He said he got a fourth round grade when he came out early.
Appears to be a similar approach that worked successfully with RBs last year- draft several and odds of hitting on at least one are pretty good.
His ability doesn't come close to matching his grade. He might be the best receiver in this draft. I think he thinks he's the best receiver in this draft class. He just doesn't care.
What else does he have going on in his life to cause him to poo-poo football?
Is he going to MIT? Trying to be a doctor? Astronaut?
He was pretty good when he had a QB throwing the football. Pretty pedestrian/lackadaisical with Wimbush.
I'd venture to say he'll like AR throwing to him and will be fully engaged. Love the pick!
Nothing. He just frustrates coaches.
I don't think GB picks him if Kizer isn't in GB either. If he decides he wants to play though....
Elements of Randy Moss in this guy....
I think St. Brown is just wired a bit differently than most prospects. He appears to be highly intelligent and mature for his age. I think it's safe to say he was raised quite differently that most as well.
I'll take a wait and see approach but he has all the tools in the world and the right guy throwing him the ball if he wants to be great.

I doubt that. I think it was more there was no way he should have still been available and there was no way they could pass him up.
Steal of the draft.

I’m taking his word for it that whatever signals he put out at the college level are gone now that he’s in the pros. He is pissed he dropped, and now he wants it.
It’s perfect.
Daddy issues seriously? If that’s why people passed, I’m thinking it is going to be laughable.
Todd Marinovich had daddy issues, too.
You can't go wrong guessing Antonio Cromartie.
A valid point sir.

In the phone interview, a beat reporter asked him if he had a nickname and he sad, "E Q".
"He refused to play special teams." An NFC Scout to @BobMcGinn on Equanimeous St. Brown. Well, I got some news for you kid..

McGinn and Nagler
Holy crap. I finally watched his highlight reel. I hope he gets his head on straight and makes the most of this opportunity, because he's got some mad skills.
He's basically Calvin Johnson if he wants to be.
He looks like a legit prospect. Can't wait for preseason.
Kind of reminds me of a guy who knows he's got crazy skills and thinks his last college QB and STs are beneath his ability. With AR throwing to him, that might not be a problem. But, that same attitude might keep him from getting on the field and then he'll be out of football in no time.

Just tell him in his home language "Mein Freund, wenn Sie auf ein Spiel Tag Register zu erhalten, müssen Sie erlernen, und einigen speziellen Mannschaften spielen wollen."
Wait? His spleen is swollen?
Pretty sure it says his manshaft is swollen.
He may have refused to play ST in college, which if he was confident of his WR abilities it makes sense that he'd want to insure the future as best he could.
Another possibility with the scout talking to McGinn and poo-pooing EQ is that he/she is trying to justify his/her report that led to EQ not being picked in the top 50-75 and going late.
EQ has the skill/talent to tilt the field.
some notable late picks/UDFA's
Bart Starr - pick # 200
Tom Brady - pick #199
Donald Driver - pick #213
Willie Wood - UDFA
Raymond Berry - pick #232
Deacon Jones - pick #186
The strength he shows is impressive--could be hard to tackle.

Oh, thank goodness.
Please explain.
With pictures?
Man, this kid is like a perfect combination of Jerry Rice, Herman Moore and Sterling Sharpe.
He's got the skillset of Michael Irvin, Dick Butkus and Cheryl Tiegs.
Apparently he's got the moves of Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo
If Superman and Lou Ferigno banged Wonderwoman on the same night I'll bet that child wouldn't be able to cover St. Brown.
He may actually be able to take Bill Brasky.
Is was on-board with the comparisons until that last one from DH13.
Me too. I mean, that's just getting ridiculous.
You guys.
Here we go again. Though there is some actual thought behind this one.
Nope, not seeing it.
