Here was The Ringer's profile about Mitchell. They ranked him as the 31st best prospect in this draft. Quote:

Nice to have a receiver named God.

Chose #10 to signify the number of WR drafted ahead of him

For all I know, this guy might wind up in the Hall-of-Fame someday and be mentioned in the same breath as Lance Alworth, Steve Largent, Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, and Marvin Harrison ...... but I don't think that calling attention to yourself in such a brazen, challenging manner before you've caught a single pass in the NFL is necessarily the most prudent route to take. At least Joe Namath's team made it to the Super Bowl before he guaranteed that they would win it. o |

He said that he was "pissed" when he was drafted in the 2nd round last month, and not the first round. And that was made a big deal of in the press. So, choosing number 10 AND telling the press that that is why he chose that number one month later is calling attention to himself ...... at least that's how I view a rookie wide receiver calling attention to oneself. It will be fine if he has a good season. But if he tears his UCL in the 5th game of the season, his assertion of being pissed and choosing number 10 won't be a flattering look for a rookie wide receiver. Hopefully he will stay healthy, play well, and make it a moot point. o |

On the other hand, in 1998 Peyton Manning specifically told Jim Irsay, ) “I would like to play for you, but if you don’t pick me (in the draft), I will kick your ass for the next 15 years.” https://www.indystar.com/story/sport...areer/2533481/ There was a major nuance with that, though ....... Manning did not make that statement/conversation with Irsay known to the public until 2011, when he was being interviewed by ESPN's Rick Reilly ...... by which time he had clearly established himself as one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time. o |
