  1. MississippiState_logo.gif Fred Ross, WR, Mississippi State  
    Height: 6-2. Weight: 207.  
    Projected 40 Time: 4.56. 
    Projected Round (2017): 3-5. 

    12/3/16: Ross totaled 873 yards on 69 receptions with 12 touchdowns in 2016. 

    7/30/16: Ross showed tremendous improvement as a junior. In 2014, he had modest production (30-489-5) before a huge increase in 2015 with 88 catches for 1,007 yards and five touchdowns. Ross has some size to him, and his speed will be the question for the NFL. It could be harder for him to produce as a senior with Dak Prescott moving on to the NFL.

CAREER: Explosive, versatile playmaker who is one of the greatest receivers in Mississippi State history … Tremendous hands and is tough … Elected to return for his senior season after a prolific junior campaign in which he led the SEC in receptions per game and broke three school records … Can line up in the slot or at split end and is a dangerous return man … A candidate for the Biletnikoff Award as the nation’s most outstanding receiver … Appeared in 37 games with 14 starts … In the MSU career record books: ranks fifth in catches (127), ninth in receiving touchdowns (10), 10th in receiving yards (1,611) and second in 100-yard receiving games (7) … Accounted for 12 touchdowns – 10 receiving, one rushing, one punt return … Produced double-digit reception games four times … Returned 22 punts for 232 yards and one score … Heads into the 2016 season having produced 100-yard receiving games in four out of his last five contests … Underwent surgery on his groin on March 9, 2016, and missed spring practice … Arrived in Starkville as a Parade All-American out of Texas.

    • XL might never reach his full potential here but I think he does have a legitimate shot at becoming a pretty good #2-3. We knew when we picked him that he was raw but his athletic traits were hard to pass on.  I still remember coming here and telling 85% of huddlers to not give up on DB yet after his first couple of years here.  I just knew DB was going to special. I wouldn't put XL in that exact same category but I wouldn't write him off yet. I think our playcalling is also working against his strengths.  At the very least, we should have a servicable #3 receiver w/ speed between XL, Horn Jr, and Meetchie. 
    • I think we haven't praised Morgan/tilis enough. In this thread we have some huddles best and its hard to figure out what to do with the 19th pick, if you understand that. Im also posting what "I" believe they are doing and what I feel is best. Those FA signess send a clear signal- They are going all-in to win this coming season. If you factor that in, just believe it first, it 100% changes what going on with pick 19, cause 51st pick doesn't matter as the talent level drop is petty big between the two. So 19 is the biggest difference maker on the current plan of all-in for the 2026.  Then you factor in who will be there at, (I better hold off on my other strong thought here- I think trade up is the best help too, yes using that 3rd to do so too...) DT, ILB(Allen? he didn't run), OC, QB(ooo my I don't want to rage drool my hate again about how I feel here, plus F it draft TY simp not joking)....... those 4 groups don't have the "BPA" at 19. You can add ILB Hill in there, but I feel 19 just is too high, other disagree.  Slot or TE it is......Kenyon is the only TE worth a 1st and he's the classic draft dilemma- All sort of he's a top ten lock to he's a non-blocking one trick WR that's not even worth 2nd currency. Then there's he's the clear winner from the TE group, thus increases his value more no matter the opinion.  Honestly I see the Matt Millen outcome as the current odds favorite, I think the huddle would go bonkers for weeks as result......just the truth tho, WR had the highest odds to be the clear BPA and slot is a need...plus if we are talking about Walker being a one year deal, Coker is a one year too(he may have another controll yr, I got to confirm it tho). Plus God forbid Tmac gets hurt, the drop in talent from him or Coker to Moore is fuging scary, I'd say more than the recent OT stone fellow. It goes back back to adding talent no matter what, draft now help, and where are  the weak points are in the system you want to run....  
    • good for him...but bigger is realizing that we are starting to develop talent to the point that when our FA's hit the market, teams ACTUALLY want them.  hasnt been that way in a minute.
