It is true all the draft gurus are saying it. he's the next Marvin Harrison. He's quiet minds his own business and plays the game the way it s's supposed to be played. I'd love if Miami can draft this man. His hands are like gold:cooldude:
 
I think he is good but he is #3 IMO and many others agree. Mike Williams is the big WR in this draft, with Edwards not far behind.
 
He might be one of the more underrated recievers in the draft but he is far from the best. He doesnt have the size and strength you look for (5'10 190lbs), and when he lines up against larger more physical dbs, he struggles. He has a track record of shutdown and pushed around when facing physical DBs.
 
He's going to be a good pro and may end up being the best one day (it's hard to predict elite WRs at draft time). I prefer Michael Clayton to this Mark Clayton, though.

The last two games of the season he was shutdown when he lined up against a physical corner.
Chris Chambers is about the same size. Chris' greatest attribute as a receiver is his vertical leap. There's more to the game than size and speed.

I never said he wasnt going to be successful, in fact I said he might be the most underrated. I dont think he has the upside that Edwards and Williams with their combination of size and speed.

Wrong. Reciever is most definitely a position in which size DOES matter. Sure there are a couple players that are exceptions, but the majority of the top recievers in this league are big and physical.
 
Big AND physical? There are only three guys who PLAY physical. A lot of receivers are 6'1" - 6'3" and around 210, but only three guys really play physical - Hines Ward, Eric Moulds, and Terrell Owens. Some of the bigger receivers like Javon Walker and Muhsin Muhammad don't play all that physically. Also, a lot of the smaller receivers are studs - Torry Holt, Isaac Bruce, Reggie Wayne, and Marvin Harrison.
 
I covet Clayton and I'd like him with that 18th pick possibly if the Minnesota transaction occured.
 
I am hoping to trade down with the Vikings, and grap Carnell Williams at #7 and Mark Clayton at #18. Hopefully trade Surtain for the #46 and grap someone for defense, maybe Poole if he falls, I doubt it. and then at #70 grab McPherson.
 
I think clayton will be a great wideout.After the catch he is amazing with the ball.I am a sooners fan and have been watching this guy get better every year.I would love to get him but i don't see it happining.

No. Chris Chambers is 5'10"-5"11" and weighs 210. Chambers is kind of stocky for a WR.
