C. Lamb ran a 4.5 and was pretty dominant this year.  And inch taller than Chase but almost 10 lbs. heavier.   Green barely ran a 4.5 if I recall.   Taller though.


I would not be unhappy with Smith, but I'm team Chase.   The  guy is super competitive, wins contested catches, gets open on the edges - and really anywhere and is supremely confident.   not to mention his demonstrated chemistry with Burrow.  He's a total game changer.  Combined with Boyd and Higgens would make for a devastating receiver corps - as long as we have the brains to sign/ draft a major upgrade at OL.

There were just games that our receivers did not get open.   He'd get open.  He's # 2 after Sewell for me.
