OMG Colorado getting blown out!

 

Oh noez what a bunch of frauds! Prime could never coach. Sanders is a bust!

 

Grown adults these are the comments I have seen in this thread. Hilarious stuff.

 

Keep em coming guys!

If they aren’t trying or giving it their all like you are claiming then they should have sat out this game. There are players on the roster that want to show NFL scouts they have what it takes. BYU just looks like the better team which happens a lot in these matchups…

Hunter's change of direction ability is absurd. He probably won't because there's nothing to gain but I'd love to see his shuttle and three come times.

The shuttle is becoming the new 40.

Everyone wants to see it because it really separates those high twitch athletes from the “just fast” athletes.

Ladd’s shuttle is what boosted his draft stock.

Not really.  Ladd’s injury history was and is still a big deal.  He gets to play with Herbert which inflates his stats.  Don’t start loving Ladd now.  Hunter is another question and the main question is 6’0 185.  Size is a concern.

Sanders is basically Caleb Williams just a lot smaller, a lot weaker arm, and slower.

Listening to sports talk this morning, they said this is a horrible draft to be needing franchise QB.  Suggested in a more typical QB draft, Sanders and Ward would be mid-to-late first rounders.

I like Ward. I don't like the rest of the class. Ward looks like a top 5 picks year in and year out to me. But I think he's the only 1st rounder in the class.

It 100% was, he ran a 3.97 at his pro day.

In reference to pass uses of shuttle times. This article details how Edelman’s shuttle got him drafted in the first place. A guy who was completely off the radar in college got drafted simply because of his elite shuttle time. Ladd’s definitely played a role in his draft stock boost.

Additionally, saying a receiver is or isn’t good because of their QB play is such a lazy argument. McConkey is elite at creating separation. Just a few weeks ago PFF had him as their leader in created separation for the week.

Does he have prior injury concerns, sure. But there’s a difference between drafting a wide receiver with an injury history verses signing a wide receiver with an injury history. The main difference being the money.

      So is Legette getting traded?

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Can't keep pining for what never happened....but for god sakes, DeJean, Frazier... and we got this dude in a R1 trade up.  The most notable blunder of this era, that's for sure.

      That's it. How do you feel about this draft class.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Overall, fine.  Wish we landed a guy to pair with Lloyd but I presume this means they're giving Trevin one final year to put it together (72nd overall 2 years back).  Flashed potential year 1, had a dud last year.   R1: Freeling LT - Great value and a need; landed our new long term LT that could end up starting off the bat.  Icky had a terrible injury and is not playing in his contract year.  Walker is what he is on a 1-year rental, who even knows how he fits. You get premier OTs early if you can find em' and he has what you want.  I thought he could have gone as high as 6/CLE pre-draft, so am a big fan of the selection.  Looking at this class, he's one of the guys at the top that is like "okay that's the LT".  Others have this right/left or G/T type discussion about them.  Freeling is an LT.   R2: Hunter NT - We didn't really have anyone replacing A'Shawn's snaps in our rotation.  Wharton & Brown aren't 3 downers so adding Hunter to the mix fills a big void. I dug deep into S and LB this draft so was a bit to zeroed in - In recognize the value and impact add in the trenches. R3: Brazzell WR - Intriguing.  Given our history, I don't really want to place any expectations here, but a different style weapon for Bryce. I pretty much expect a WR drafted yearly with this regime. Other notables.. Hecht C - These are the type of rounds where starting centers have been found.  We got a starter for this year, but Hecht seems pretty capable and I like it for a long term find.  SOLID AF.  Wheatley S - A pretty well regarded safety prospect.  And we see it every year (like this one) safeties get hyped, people think they may go sooner than expected, and the league reminds them how it rolls.  Plenty of nice safeties have been found in the 4th-6th in recent years.  Big fan of Wheatley. Can't say I know enough about Lee or the others.
