I do'nt think Chase is on their radar personally.I think they go FA and Waddle
Tony Pauline says Chase doesn’t get past Fins at 3.

I wish people would remember how Chase dominated the SEC. You basically have to ask yourself, do you like the WR who projects to be Marvin Harrison or the one who projects to be Steve Smith.
If it were up to me the Fins would take Chase at 3 and Waddle or Bateman at 18. Then take best available RB at 2A, I prefer Williams. Let's get same damn weapons on O for once.
That’s a very valid point and nothing I said is pointed at your analysis of chase that I’ve seen. I think you have one of the most realistic grades on him that I’ve come across here. I don’t think the sitting out will bother his draft stock, and I understand your view on the kids that sat out through a coaches lens.
what’s probably being over looked by all of us is that Kyle pitts is the best receiver in this class.
The reason I'm leery of Smith is with him, you get what you see. There isn't going to be an improvement on his route skills or his size. He's hit peak everything.
With Chase, I still see him able to improve his route running ability. Add that into how he is able to use his is body more and high point the football better & I think Chase has the higher upside.

That's right. Although sometimes it's good to get what you see. A lot of times you end up getting what you don't see.

Getting 2 of Pitts, Smith, Waddle, and Chase would be my dream scenario for Miami. I feel good about all their talent and the likelihood they play well early. I have combos I prefer, but getting premium weapons is always good.
Xavien Howard told Darius Butler that Jeudy was one of the toughest WR's to cover. He smoked a lot of CB's as a rookie, just like he did at Alabama. Lock just doesn't have the skill and timing to take advantage. He's better off with guys like Sutton who are always kinda open because of their size and ball skills. Parker for Jeudy would make sense fit-wise for both teams. Give Lock more jump-ball guys, and give Tua guys who can separate. Parker + 2b for Jeudy could make sense for both sides. Of course Denver should just keep Jeudy and move on from Lock.
Early second could net us bama rb Harris. Yes, yes.
I like both Smith and Chase. I just feel that Smith is a better fit for Tua and Tua is a better fit for Smith due to their style of play.
It matters a lot. You are not only looking at winning the ball, you also looking at flanker who can stretch the field. A speedy deep threat can pull the corner deep and pull the safety to his side. As a result, slot or TE on that side gets more room, also in running play, the safety needs couple more steps to come up and tackle. That could means the different between a 5 yards run and a 12 yards run.
What I said is football 101 really, nothing revolutionary. I am surprised a board veteran like you would everlooked that.
I actually think Waddle is a better fit for this team. Waddle is a pure speed burner. Can pull the corner deep and command attention of safety. We already have 5050 type wr in DVP. Don't need more with similar skill set.
Chase isn’t slow. He isn’t the fastest, but he has better than average speed.
Where is your source?
When you can not get separate deep, safety often ignore you. Reason being that safety knows even if you make the catch, you will tackled immediately.
We need a alpha wr who can commands double team.
