  1. SU has class as a college ...
  2. Crazy.. went from consensus top 5 to flame out
  3. Purdy will be exposed
  4. Rather have Mike Vick visit then OJ Simpson 😵
  5. Well not locked in I am kinda leaning Navy +20.5 I also like under 44.5 Nebraska @ minnesota I have Oklahoma -33.5 vs Arkansas State That's what I'm putting my most money on *** thank God I was getting funny feelings about the ND game and didn't bet it... I was thinking the option could speed up the game and limit possessions
  6. RIP He was From the rotunda wrestling family... His Bray Wyatt character was phenomenal and he was definitely one of a kind
  7. I can run the wing t
  8. No I said I think it's a two or three year project as a inline blocker But he has the traits... Which is mostly effort and intensity Which could show up in some packages... He will never be the blocker dawson is
  9. Listen I'm not trying to say he's going to like the world on fire But with his effort and intensity he will do whatever job the Bill's ask him to do There's some tight ends in the league who don't have effort blocking... Those guys are lost causes.. he brings high effort and he's not afraid of contact which is promising That Alone will get some results... A 2-3-year project as a blocker but again... The effort will make it happen Because TEs blocking is all about effort
  10. Every single scout I've met that ever watched him live came away with a different opinion.. then the pregame norei Sucking means you can't do it... He will be able to block some people in the NFL There's a massive difference between sucking at something and being modest... Again he's not even the worst blocking tight end drafted Suck is a one out of 10 He even showed he could pass block some... Not that we're going to ask him to do that much But he did everything he was asked of... He didn't fail
  11. There's a reason why scouts put the word in there... They could easily say nuanced route runner ... But they add smooth or fluid because he moves well... It's a million times better than moving clunky No gloves nick o Leary... Opposite of smooth/fluid mover No coach wants somebody who runs like a robot... Being a fluid athlete is a bonus... At offensive tackle , WR or DB or TE There's a reason why that word has been in football vocabulary for a hundred years...replace smooth with fluid Everybody wants a fluid athlete on the football field
  12. Long answer, no.. especially of they keep elam for his contract Benford was obviously under drafted because Villanova.. he's like the 5th player drafted from there in 20 years Even if he was at University at Buffalo he probably would have been a top 4 rounder
  13. And obviously being smooth doesn't mean you're going to be a great football player .... But when you watch somebody who does everything so effortlessly... The way he moves, and breaks off a route .. his gait Smooth is a million times better than clunky
  14. When I was watching him in Utah... One word that kept crossing my mind was smooth lol And I wanted him
  15. From an athletic standpoint... Still super intriguing But the fact he's getting buried by the team that mortgage its future for him? Looks bleak He'll probably be out of the league in 3 years
  16. I'm all for drafting the big uglies We just seem to take the wrong ones recently
  17. There are plenty of line coaches who say it takes 5 to 7 years to develop a tackle fully... Tristan wirfs is the best RT in the league and he is still getting better .. hell peak at 28-29 Nobody is a finished product.... Absolutely even the best tackles peak around 28-29-30... Not at 25.. then decline at like 32-33 And as a long time scout I've known who Van Demark is... Just because you're an undrafted free agent doesn't mean you can't have high upside? Jason Peters hello He is insanely raw... But you look for traits with offensive tackles He has the prototype size for a LT... He has long arms ... He can move, good athlete, a good punch and he's a blind side protector... I knew scouts who were trying to get him drafted in the 7th round He has good explosion too He was a low floor high ceiling guy which is why he went undrafted.. but there were definitely rumblings he could get drafted He has a lot of potential down the road
  18. Sucks is way too strong of a word... I traveled to Utah to watch him play and he certainly wasn't as bad as you make it out He is a willing blocker, with good aggressiveness... That alone makes it modest.. blocking is all effort He's not afraid of contact, and it's something that's easily improvable He wasn't even the worst blocking tight end drafted... Not close So I can't say he sucks because that's way too harsh.. he's going to be blocking this year in some sets He has modest potential and he tries hard He won't be moving people but he can keep a hat on them and he's good in space Every single scout that saw him live came away with a better impression of his blocking skills then before because he has effort
  19. The bills drafted Cody Ford to play tackle in the 2nd... Busted out.... McDermott took Dawkins .... Then they took Spencer brown in the 3rd... Tommy Doyle the same draft Then Luke Tenuta ... Signed Darryl Williams , queesenberry ... Van demark a high upside Tackle is a position that needs reps... They don't peek until they're around 30 if healthy ... And they need repetitions to get better Can't just be throwing first round picks at right tackle... They're putting resources into it .. but sometimes these guys need 3 years to develop... Even some can't miss tackles turn out to be pretty Miss... It's not easy
  20. The bulls are winning the Mac Drew Willie wasn't running the ball when UB won lol cole is one of the best quarterbacks in the mac And they have the best roster
  21. He's a better and more willing blocker than you give him credit for Is he gronk? No But blocking ALL comes down to intensity and desire... He always brings intensity when run blocking which is something to build on and coachable He isn't lax in it ... He has effort He will be able to run in line in a few years
  22. RIP Sean He's chatting Bills with Van and Ralph now : )
  23. That's called division 1 football... Hockey players and soccer players and tennis players are playing pro at 18... Some professional hockey and soccer players are playing overseas at 16 Every single player in the NFL is at least 3 years removed from HS .... Every single one without exception You get five years with a red shirt of top notch strength conditioning and nutrition... These kids bodies change drastically from 18 to 23 That's the minor league system If you need more seasoning you go to Canada... Or the feeder league The NCAA has been pumping out ready-made guys for 90 years
  24. He was playing like 12 games a year I'm pretty sure he's number one or two all time in yards per game... It's either Him or Berry Sanders ypg all time
  25. They've been drafting guys like Josh Allen for 80 years Josh is one of the few that actually panned out to super stardom status... It's always been the prototype Big strong cannon arm and can run? Sign me up says GMs They always think they could fix the flaws with coaching
