Any intriguing QB's playing tonight aside from Colorado?

Not sure about the QB's, but Travis Hunter will be someone I watch very carefully as I think he is a legit possibility in the draft.

 

I like the idea of him at DB. This defense needs a playmaker this kid has tremendous talent as a ball hawk. I'm just concerned if he's going to gamble too much. He loves making the big play.

I think Sanders should quit playing him both ways so much. Maybe the rare big game occasion.  

Lots of college kids could in theory do that.  I think the volume he gets limits us from seeing how good he really is/can be.

Agreed.

 

He's going to get injured if he keeps playing both sides. I seen him enough I think his best position is DB. Play him there and let him shine.

I think last year Sanders felt the need to play him both sides with the hype he brought to Colorado he probably felt playing Travis on both sides gave them the best chance to win now. With the improved talent this year he may feel the team doesn't need to play him as much on both sides. Probably still will, but hopefully DB will be his main position and he'll play WR on significantly less snaps, just a few designed plays to get him touches.

But this I am also someone that hasn't followed college football as much as i would like. So an outside looking in take here.

and he was average at times last year at DB because of volume and over usage.  Flat out picked on one game at the end of the year.  The "best DB" in the nation shouldn't be the target to be picked on.

Yeah, he's putting a TON of mileage on that kid. I get it, he's a stud and you want to give him every opportunity to impact the game but I think you gotta protect him from himself and just play him at CB then give him maybe 10-12 snaps a game at WR. He isn't the CB he could be whole also trying to play WR full time too, not to mention the excessive wear and tear.

      Canes vs Blue Jackets 7pm

      I love the person and think he is starting to give in to the retirement idea.  I was just wondering if he is a liability.  I will come back more--I LOVE the game of hockey but was never around it.

      Mason Graham at NT?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I am not a fan of drafting a NT in round 1. Your 3 Techs are your better athletes, in general, but there have been exceptions.  A player that does fit the Evero mold for a NT is Walter Nolan of Ole Miss.  He is a hair under 300 and is projected to be effective at both the three tech and NT positions.  Some argue that playing him at NT is a waste of his talents, however, and a NT in round 1 is a reach, imo.  He is projected to be drafted late first. Deone Walker out of Kentucky is a freakish athlete in that he can play every DL position and he is 6'6" and 345.  A bit raw, he has the skill set Evero covets, assuming his size is not a deal breaker. He has a second-round grade. I have to think we try to sign a veteran or go with Shy again (hope not).  Either way, the NT they may covet (considering all other needs) is Omarr Norman-Lott, a player who could drop to the early 4th round. He is effective from the 0, 1, or 3 tech positions.  Has good first step quickness (4 sacks in 2024).  Needs to work on technique like all others, can get washed.  Smart player--high football IQ. Finally, I would draft Tyleik Williams of Ohio State in round 2 if he were to somehow fall that far.  He is a great bull rusher and has freakish speed and power to play any DL position--from 0 to 5 tech.  He needs to work on some things, as they all do, but few have the ceiling Williams has.  I would interview him to see if he is a dawg and is willing to work hard to be the best because he has the tools to be great.
