T. Austin < or = J. Adams


Who Said What?

Recommended Posts

This is exactly the same shite that Joe Adams was doing in his highlight video. Austin's highlights look very pedestrian against moderate competition. I especially like how he he gets walked down in the Texas, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Marshall games. Adams was running all over the field against SEC competition everyweek. Some might say that he got run down in certain situations too. I say he was drafted in the fourth round and he is already on our team. He was not the 14th overall pick in the first round.

An issue with Austin are his small hands, which equal fumbles and double catches at the next level. He played alot in the backfield, and one of the running jokes here is our over-emphasis on the backfield.

People are already saying if we have the creativity to use him, he can be a weapon. How about we draft a guy that does not need us to run gimmicks for him to succeed. He is nothing more than a slot reciever whose supposed video game speed does not give him much seperation against top competition We need to go OL or DL when it is our turn to draft and get one of these bigger and stronger recievers who are still fast in the second(i.e. J. Hunter, D. Rodgers) or K. Stills in the fourth if you want a slot reciever that bad.

I'm constantly amazed that some people are so god awfully fuging stupid.

4.51 and 4.28 are basically the same speed guyz!!!!

For what it's worth, Austins hands are larger than Adams and 90% of the idiots first WR picked this year - Patterson.

Where do these retarded posts come from? There's a reason one is supposed to go 1st rd while one went 4th rd. I understand if you think we should go a different direction with our pick because we do have multiple holes to fill but please stop with the stupid Adams comparison. Plus you said tavon played a lot in the backfield which isn't true. You have obviously just watched highlight videos considering that's really only something they did for the last half of his senior season because in the 1st game they put him back there you get the performance he gave against Oklahoma (google it). I guess all the draft guys that compare him to welker and harvin would probably agree that all 3 of those guys are < or = to adams

    • I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan 
    • Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.
    • I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
