Talent is in every round. Both Nacua and Williams were 5th round picks.

I'm sure you know.. but when they were looking to draft him.. they called him Deebo of the Mountain West.... and that was a Deebo play.

He could have easily had 2 more TDs today too! Stafford missed him when he was wide open for a TD when the Saints' pressure rushed the throw. On another play, Puka only had 1 man to beat and made a nice move - he was inches away from breaking the tackle and would have had nothing but grass between him and the end zone.

Puka is already in absolutely elite company with what he is doing as a rookie.

And he is rapidly becoming my favorite Ram. SOOOO fun to watch, and with a great personality to boot.

Oddly, for being such a great WR, he does drop passes with too much regularity. Hopefully, it's just rookie kinks to be worked out.

I didn't know that was his nickname ... missed that but I did know he has some injury issues, seeing how he plays I can see why. But he seems tough as nails. I just hope the body holds up.

That play also showed how important Williams is. Looked to me like Stafford rushed the throw because he wasn't sure that rusher was going to be stopped. I'll bet that's a TD with Williams in the backfield, just sayin.

im not sure there are many WR that can take a hit like that and not go down.

Screw those damn 6th rounders, we need to move up to the 5th.

Puka just 147 yards away from beating the all-time rookie receiving record.

A fifth rounder! Insane!

All those modern names at the top there are fuckin ballers. Not sure about the old bastids. Don't feel like googling them either.

Fuck that, that's a Puka play. Puka is making his own name. We don't need to compare him to that turd.

Absolutely, To be fair it will be with an extra game possibly over JJ and 3 over Groman but that was a different Era.

Oh.. for sure.

But that was what we’ve seen Deebo do to us. So fun seeing a Ram dole it out.

Kid will be a superstar with that personality as long as he stays healthy.

 

[Steve808]

What I love is that Puka is a physical receiver. I hope he becomes a whiner killer consistently.

 

[Londoner]

147 yards needed? Let’s hope that he can get them against the Gnats, so that we can rest him in the Whiners game (assuming we have sealed our postseason spot by then).

It would be funny as fuck if it's us that's resting players and they're still having to go balls out for the #1.

We can dream.

On that wild.. sliding falling catch that he somehow held onto.. Puka was blowing by the Saints Alontae Taylor.

Taylor ran a 4.36 at the combine.

Stafford actually under threw him.. or it would've been a 75 yard TD.

He can do that.. and run people over... an amazing talent.
