  1. That's a very good rebuttal And that is feasible.. I can see something like that happening But didn't Edwards start on a super bowl Rams team? Or was that the year before? Collins started with a pretty good career and has kind of fell short... But him and Edwards are basically getting the same guaranteed money If neither of them.. fit the actual bill at left guard.. and van pran Granger has been holding his own Then yes it can make sense to refill the left guard spot.. if vpg is able to play within the scheme fit next to McGovern and Torrence... But I do think a year of seasoning to correct his technique flaws could take him from good to very good
  2. Well, I don't sit here all day everyday and talk about everything I know about the sport.. but I've been posting here and on the old bbmb for 15 years And I played division one football... Have coached and scouted I'm still employed in the game of football.. and I have made plenty of scouting reports for people here that have asked for certain players He's a good football player at that round.. I would not bet on him out playing McGovern.. who has been waiting to be the linchpin of an NFL team
  3. As I've said multiple times... There is literally next to no chance.. a short-armed , smaller center who struggles with technique .. could beat out a NFL starter... With center experience in college... And is now one of the strongest biggest centers in the league It will be next to impossible to beat him out in 1 year... Maybe next season or the year after You're not unseating an the NFL veteran who is big for his position year 1... Who is starting quality
  4. Well to be fair the definition of sportsman is somebody who engages in sports... And it's actually used for hunters or fishers usually including in the definition If you're playing sports at 20 years old for a club.. I would call you a sportsman or an athlete or whatever you want to be called It certainly isn't playing t-ball at 5 years old... This is called a lottery pick... And professional coaches are professional for a reason.. they are trained to get the best out of people
  5. It turns out mkneese State might be the place for quadir lol I didn't realize wade was there and he probably gave him a bag with 300k cash and a ford explorer 🤣
  6. I love the honesty Reading I just get a little out of hand when I drink might be the best sentence I've ever read on the site I also get out of hand when I drink
  7. Didn't will Wade get investigated by the FBI LOL and fired from LSU for some sketchy stuff Doesn't surprise me he's getting good guy lol
  8. I can't imagine Copeland going to McNeese State LOL Unless there really is something wrong with his character... But he seems so smiley and friendly at Syracuse He's got to be a high major player.. he's a 6'6 guard who is super crafty
  9. Calling him now a sportsman is kind of b******* He's 6'7 300 lb... And runs a 4.7 forty He's an insane athlete.. I don't care if he played bar League rugby or tennis at a country club His size and speed is world class... And you could take a few years to mold him into whatever you want Patrick Ricard is a 300 lb fullback.. you can see if he can figure out full back over 2 years behind Gilliam.. get him to lose 20 lb and see if he can catch a ball at TE You can take 3 years and see if you can develop him as a swing tackle.. give him the ball on the 1 yard line Obviously it's a pick that probably will not pan out.. but at the end of the draft you can never go wrong taking an athletic specimen He is far from your average athlete with his size and running ability
  10. Actually his senior year was worse than his junior year He is a stud and I honestly had a seventh round grade on him.. He is slightly inconsistent in the short game... But he drills 50 plus yarders Big leg.. I see him being an NFL kicker His junior year was actually by far his best .. and I put a 7th round grade on him after that year Slightly inconsistent inside 35... But from 50 out he has the ability to be legatron There aren't many kickers in the country who drill 50 yards plus at his pace in Western New York conditions in college Also hit 100 straight extra points after starting slow
  11. William Patterson also left!! Damn he's 7'2 and I had high hopes
  12. He's a short armed center only ... And he sometimes uses bad technique to try and make up for his short arms Can improve his core strength he has very little chance of beating out a grown professional starter in mcgovern this year .. who has starting NFL experience... And is now one of the bigger stronger centers in the league You groom him for a year or two while bulking him up and work on his technique
  13. That is super premature LOL He is very talented but super overrated... Sammy Watkins was a better prospect coming out and we all know how that turned out
  14. Transition is way different than rebuilding It's closer to reloading...
  15. With so many draft eligible wide receivers.. it's kind of hard to always get a grasp on how you feel for scheme fit and how they fit in 24 hours later... I'm getting pretty pumped.. we're getting a dual sport athlete... He played basketball and football at Michigan State... Could have played basketball and football at Kansas Do you know how hard it is to get Kansas to let you play basketball there? You have to be phenomenal athlete... He's smooth... A hands catcher... Runs better routes than Gabe Davis And he's pushing 6'3 220 lb with a 38 inch vertical Hes closer to Keenan Allen or Vincent Jackson then he is James Hardy
  16. No center is physically the easiest to play... It's mentally rougher They have the least amount of 1on1 blocks and there aren't a lot of pure 0 techs giving them hell 80% of snaps They are mostly combo blocking and getting to second level Guards need to be bigger and better blockers now
  17. What do you mean his father signed here because his son was starting his college career here? Frank Gore Jr went to Southern Miss
  18. Well to be fair he's only 20... Can't even drink in America legally... He is a big kid Love his personality
  19. Well Penn State is hundreds of miles from Pittsburgh so they're really not the same area And Terry Smith has been the cornerbacks coach at Penn State for years now Respected guy.. he runs a disciplined system... We're looking for scheme fits late in the draft at defensive back Penn State and Pittsburgh run DB friendly systems that translate to our system
  20. Certainly possible... He's going to have to improve his technique to have significant reps at guard and his core strength will be tested alot more at guard You can mask it a bit at center but you're going to have very tough matchups at guard 1on1... And he doesn't have the greatest Length mass or core strength for the spot He certainly can become a starting center with some seasoning... And It won't hurt to see how he can play at guard but his Length and habit of sometimes reaching would have to be corrected as well as getting a stronger core and bulking a bit With his lack of length.. and not the biggest size... He certainly is built for center but it wouldn't hurt to see
  21. We lost three scholarships a year from 15-16 , 16-17, 17-18, 18-19 That is a lot of scholarships that slowly started to effect the team ... And also recruiting Some of those teams from the late 2000s early 2010s we're playing 9 10 guys... Really good guys... Boeheim could bench the entire 5 and put in a brand new five and they could ball and win We had top five pick Dion waiters on bench The sanctions put us down to six playable guys... Six talented guys We had Frank Howard and tyus battle and O'Shea brissett playing entire games There was no 7th 8th or 9th man... The depth of the team was gone
  22. Syracuse basketball from 2008-2017 went 9 out of 10 years with a first round pick Only Duke and Kentucky had a better streak... Then sanctions
  23. Mcgovern played center in college.. and has NFL starting experience on the line It's going to be next to impossible.. for him to beat him out this year.. unless they want McGovern back at guard He's a great option to groom
  24. Did you forget the serious sanctions? We lost three scholarships a year... Which is insane in basketball Sanctions only ended in 2020... And it still takes a couple of seasons to recover Syracuse went from getting top 80 recruits, with a top 20 guy every other year To top 350 recruits... That is a massive difference The players Syracuse normally recruit didn't want to come here under sanctions... We literally have the 6th ranked player in the country coming in... The best power forward in the country... And one of the best guards from New York City Syracuse recruiting is back.. it just takes a couple cycles to build a team
