Two Georgia players to look out for


methodtoll

Recommended Posts

Brandon Boykin- CB/KR: Solid player on both defense and STs but probably one of the best KRers in the SEC. He also has played RB on some packages which has led to some big plays.

Blair Walsh-K: The best kicker in the SEC . Has rarely missed from any distance. This isn't an indictment on Mare but Mare is 38 and not getting younger.

Did you see the UF-UGA game? Walsh went 1/3...all being less than 40 yards. He is 13/23 on the year (that is not a typo) although his long is 56 yards. But it's not like they've all been ridiculously long. From 30-39 yards he is 6/10 and 2/6 from 40-49 yards out.

Boykin, he's not great on defense but is a heck of a returner. Not sure I would want to use a pick on a return specialist though.

The last kicker we had from Georgia ended up being pretty decent...

This isn't the same person. I don't understand why people reference where they went; it provides no similarities to their ability, talent, work ethic, nor did they have the same coaches.

Why state the obvious? You must think that by me saying "They went to the same school" that I automatically think that Blaie Walsh is going to have a HoF worthy career, just because John Kasay went to Georgia too? Get a life.

I can't believe you actually started a thread about a Kicker and a Punt Returner.

What's wrong with you, man?

Have you seen our special teams?

Btw, Boykin is not as bad of a corner as some stated, in fact he is rated the 4th best corner among some nfl draft analysts.

Regarding Walsh, this has not been his best season but has been pretty accurate through his career at UGA. He has earned all sec first team last season among the coaches vote.

Don't be so defensive broseph. I'm letting you know it doesn't matter if they went to the same school.

It's a fun fact josemite. No hidden conotation behind it. I fully understand there is no corelation between kickers and everyone else does as well.

    • Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.  
    • Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO. 
    • Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
