NFL Discussion v60: Contract Raping Edition

[speakhandsforme]

Don Barclay was carted off the field with a knee injury.

MOTHER FUCKER. EVERY FUCKING YEAR WITH THE INJURIES.

Those are unofficial and meant for the watching experience. By that standard, Bruce Ellington ran a 4.3.

Officially, it was rendered a 4.61. http://www.nfl.com/draft/2014/profiles/kelvin-benjamin?id=2543471

Not that it matters considering his other performances.

Raiders should have taken him over Mack then.

But ya, he isnt doing it with his speed. Was surprised to see everyone saying how good his hands have been in camp.

 

[Alex5124]

He looks a lot faster on film than he did at the combine. Looked like a better natural athlete than Evans in college imo.

 

[bragglefraggle]

He's still improving, he wasn't great his sophomore year, Junior year he was pretty beastly

 

[PUO3]

His radius is retarded.

 

[Alex5124]

Age is the biggest worry with him

Torn ACL.

Yeah he is older

That's a very bold statement. I might say he has more fluid hips than Evans, but I wouldn't go beyond that. I think Evans has some bust potential as well. There isn't a sure thing WR prospect like Megatron, Larry Fitzgerald, or even Andre Johnson in this class imo.

I read an except from an article about KB that criticized his production, citing that it was alarmingly low given his the disparity in size and age between him and his competition. They specifically cited advanced age as a strong determiner of college success at skills positions. Not surprising considering a lot of these guys are still growing even into their NFL playing days.

Torn ACL.

you mother fucking know it will be

I don't remember ever having these problems with early season/offseason injuries in the days of Brett Favre and Shermdog Millionaire. I don't know what the problem is.

Its confirmed already.

 

[Easy The Great]

Josh McCown has looked sharp so far this training camp

 

[INeedARemedy]

Injuries are piling up already, but, out of Abberdedeederis, Lyerla, and Barclay, none of them have been starters

Hopefully it stays that way

 

[Alex5124]

Trying to decide if I want to go to the Colts/Jets game on Thursday

His production was never going to be that great playing on that team. Florida State may have been the most loaded college team we've seen in 10 years. If they were in more competitive games, I'm sure his numbers would have been better.

Greg Cosell also said Benjamin was a more natural athlete than Evans on film (he had Benjamin ranked higher as well). Evans looks a little tighter to me. Benjamin looks more fluid and natural. I like Evans more but Benjamin's ceiling is higher. The age is the big thing for me.

This doesn't look like a guy with speed concerns.

 

[Alex5124]

Those same people (Rotoviz?) will knock Amari Cooper next year for height and production. But he's the best WR in the country.

 

[in the]

They're also requiring that no one goes barefoot.

 

[DW=HERO]

Excited for hard knocks tonight. Trying not to get my expectations too high for the Falcons.

Barclay was still really solid last year. Him going down hurts our depth quite a bit.
