I know there is a college football forum, but no one uses it

 

Will put this here, to aminly talk about potential draft prospects.

 

 

The Florida OL some on here mentioned.  Getting absolutely abused

 

Rashan Gary and Devin Bush sitting out.

 

Next years QB class is going to be absolutely STACKED as well.  The Michigan QB returning looks solid

- I was really impressed with Gardner Minshew from WSU against Iowa State last night. He’s been super consistent this year and I love his accuracy for a late round prospect. Assuming Bridgewater prices us out of his range, I wouldn’t mind signing Tyrod Taylor and drafting Minshew in the sixth. After all, if Cam sits out next year we are f’d anyway.

- Hakeem Butler, my favorite prospect all year (outside of Greedy Williams) had a huge game for ISU last night. We’re talking about a 6’6 WR who runs a sub 4.5 40 yard dash and he actually knows how to use his height (cough cough Devin Funchess). I suspect he’ll work his way into being a late second round pick but if he’s there with our third round comp pick I’d love to add him. Trotting out a unique line up of size (Butler), speed (Samuel), and strength (Moore) would be lethal on offense.

- David Montgomery the RB from Iowa State also impressed me last night. He seems to break quite a few tackles after first contact and is pretty darn shifty. He made a jump cut last night that was real impressive. He’s projected to go anywhere between the fourth and sixth round.

I completely understand why Gary and Bush sat out but I think it’ll hurt their stocks. Theyre two guys who NFL teams would really want to see one more last game from them. Bush size is already hurting him a bit. 

I agree, hard to understand Bushs decision.  Day 3 type measurables.

Michigan was amazingly overated this year.  Very mediocre 

Not really

They were solid

Hard to judge off this game.

They are a run first pro style team.  Playing without their starting RB who is sitting out.

Missing their ALLAmerican DE, their defensive captain at MLB.  Going against a Florida team with all their guys.

 

How do you think the panthers would fair vs Atlanta team with everyone while we'd be without KK, Luke, and CMC

Joe Jackson had 2.5 sack yesterday 

Jaquan Johnson had an INT and made 13 tkls yesterday 

Joe Jackson is interesting

He's a round 2 guy.

Elite athlete that is really RAW.

 

Got manhandled vs LSU and several other games.  But shows flashes like vs Wisconsin.

Patterson is not solid at all. Average-terrible is what you meant, I presume, correct?

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
