  1. QBs are labeled as “can’t make all the throws”. It doesn’t mean they’ve never made whatever throws they’re being accused of not being able to make. Baseball players are labeled as “can’t hit the curve”, doesn’t mean they’ve never hit a curve. It’s that they can’t do it at a consistent level. My longhorn buddy is big in recruiting so has watch all his HS film as well as every second he’s played in college and would not want him in the first round. Not saying he is right, but when it comes to Texas football I trust his assessment. Just was trying to relay that info.
  2. Like I said I have watched very little of him. My opinion is based on info from a friend of mine who is a longhorn and the stats you posted. But to fair, that graph doesn’t paint a full picture. He’s always been the fastest guy on the field so having the most separation, especially in a conference that isn’t really known for defense, is to be expected. The one thing the graph does represent is exactly what you have noted which is why I said you had a good analysis. He has to be wide open and not be jammed to be successful. Does that seem like that’s going to be the case in the NFL?
  3. Good insight. The thing that’s concerning to me is with elite speed and, to use your words, being shifty, a big chunk of his production is while essentially standing still. To me that screams he’s an awful route runner. I haven’t watched much of him other than a game or two but given the stats you gave, he was either told to go long or catch a sideways pass. IMO good to great route running is a bigger and better advantage than straight line speed.
  4. Just an fyi in case you want to watch Princely next year, he transferred to Ole Miss.
  5. Appreciate the offer. Normally I watch an abundance of college games, but the past two years been just watching mainly my team on dvr bc of my schedule and haven’t had much opportunity to watch others. At best would just be like auto picking a fantasy team. Maybe next year.
  6. No doubt. My point was that the disparity is getting so wide, and the expectation that many of the guys coming from higher or even mid level schools will have, will force the facilities war into the pro game. Some teams have obviously already sensed that and have become committed to it, others clearly have not. Yet.
  7. I think very soon the facilities war that has been going on the last 10 or so years in college will work its way to the pros. Colleges are spending hundreds of millions on these things (those that can afford it).
  8. May be a little biased, but Ricky Pearsall will be a steal for someone. Was unguardable at Senior Bowl practices as well.
  9. Should be beautiful football weather here for the game.
  10. You’re acting like this is an Achilles rupture or something. Even if he has to have surgery it’s has no affect on a career. It’s a minor blip at best.
  11. No. By the way, a QB was knocked out of the game last week and this week while in the pocket. It’s big boy football. Stuff happens.
  12. Ya I had that same vibe. You could almost feel the comeback coming. Twas disappointing AR and the O didn’t get a chance in OT. They were on quite a roll.
  13. Colts D makes life hard for Stroud and doesn’t allow him to complete passes to himself, the O continues to mesh and grow, The good guys 27-20
  14. Curious about the sacks. Could only keep an eye on the ESPN gamecast but saw twice it said sacked out of bounds for 0 yards. Im guessing it was on a scramble but how is it a sack if it wasn’t behind the los. Both were by Allen fwiw.
  15. He may get his chance soon. Tannehill played like he preferred to be holding a clipboard than being on the field. Either way will be making a lot of dough.
