Alshon Jeffery next year?

You guys all know way more about South Carolina football than I do, but Foxsports.com 'never too early' 2012 has us taking this guy 3rd overall next year.

I guess my question is whether or not he is a 'can't miss' WR ala AJ Green this year? My quick google said he is 6' 4" 230?? Wow. Would it be worth it to get maybe 5 wins and pick in the top 5 for this guy as this mock suggests? I'm not saying I want to win just five games but just wanted some insight to this guy.

I watch a lot of USC games b/c my girl is a fan and Alshon is the real deal. I haven't seen any team or player that could cover him in the SEC - and if he is covered he just jumps higher and catches it. He isn't a speedster, but he is tough to defend because of his size and has great hands.

No, as a Gamecock fan I can tell you, he's no Green. Green is one of those can't miss Calvin Johnson type WRs.

Alshon is a stud, and right up there near Green.

But not quite on the same level as him.

Very close though.

We'll see how much Alshon develops this season. Perhaps he could be by season's end. Watching him annihilate Alabama this past season was jolly good fun.

Besides, we won't be picking that high anyways.

with or without cam starting, we'll be winning about 7 games.

5 at best

I know this goes against the grain, but if we happen to lose a lot of games this upcoming year, I won't be too mad. We are setting up for the future and early picks will be very convenient. I don't foresee our win/loss record being any kind of tell tale sign of our future success.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By Icege · Posted

      WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.

      Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.

      In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
