thats what I thought, but then Yanks had me 2nd guessing a bit lolTitans really like McClellin. They'd have him play end and a little OLB I've read, they feel he can do both out of 4-3.
Going by your sig tho..And can someone tell me why people actualy think Blackmon is all that special?
He's an undersized receiver, first off. Yeah, he plays like a 6'3" WR. Thats not all that special. Stephen Hill is 6'5". Blackmon isn't that fast either. Not slow, but not all that fast. Think around an 84 speed rating equilvalent on Madden. He is a short/medium yardage guy, not someone who can stretch the field. OK State also used one of the most simple, basic offenses in all of football. Was it successful? Sure. Would it work in the NFL? Not one bit.
Also, look at the teams they faced in terms of defense. They faced an average defensive ranking of 79, which is well below the average. Not hard defenses at all. Their toughest challenge was versus Texas, the #14 defense. And they are mostly a run stopping D. Blackmon had little opposition in stopping him, and he will not do well in the NFL. He's mad overrated right now.
Fisher wants a DT, and Cox fits his team real well as a pass rushing DT
I see no reason to go JB over Cox
Why dont you like cox? I really thought you did.
lol.. i guess you didnt see my Pun.Just because I dont want a player for my team doesn't mean I think he wont be good.
For example, I think Harrison Smith is a great talented safety, and could probably do quite well in the NFL. But Smith would be an awful fit for the Patriots needs; we need a cover FS, and he's a run stopping SS.
I dont feel like Cox would be a great fit on the Patriots line. That being said, when I made that list in my sig, it was when he was projected to go late 20s. Im gonna update my sig, and take off Cox. I wouldnt be thrilled with the pick that will never happen, but I'd warm up to it.
Harrison Smith is my new "I dont want him touching a Pats uniform" guy
His OC Todd Monken said "You watch game tape and you think Justin is 6-foot-3, 220 pounds, but he's 6-1, 207. He just plays bigger."Blackmon plays like 6'5, not 6'3, and did you just say he can't stretch the field?!
Yep.His OC Todd Monken said "You watch game tape and you think Justin is 6-foot-3, 220 pounds, but he's 6-1, 207. He just plays bigger."
Blackmon doesn't play 6'5
All because it was on the stupid ass ESPN Sports Science doesn't mean it translates to the NFL. And He jumped taller than Plax on there, not every 6'5 WR. Put your tongue back in your mouth.The fact that he has about a 25 ft throwing radius, and can out jump 6'5 receivers, I'd say he plays like 6'5. That's my opinion. This is all based on facts too.
Have you noticed OK State faced some of the worst pass defenses in the country, so obviously Blackmon will outjump the defenders... he's taller/equal in height, and he has a higher football IQ than most of the DBs he faced.Have you not seen him run a fade? He out jumps everyone. I've said he plays huge for the longest time.
I'm not even saying Blackmon isn't good, but you make him out to be some superstar WR, when hes not. If he was as great as your making him out to be, he would be going in the top 3.What football IQ does it take to cover a fade lmao? They knew it was coming. And what does it matter if the CB's were shorter than him? Not a lot of CB's are even 6'1 in the NFL.
I don't care about 40's or anything. If he's plays great on the field that's what I want. I don't think he's going to be Calvin Johnson, but everyone's saying now he's comparable with guys who went late first. No way. He's going to be damn good. And don't count out top 3, he could still go to Minnesota.I'm not even saying Blackmon isn't good, but you make him out to be some superstar WR, when hes not. If he was as great as your making him out to be, he would be going in the top 3.
Teams would be thinking he was an elite prospect whenever it was already reported that teams feel there are only 5 Elite Prospects. Luck, Griffin, Kalil, Claiborne, Richardson.
Blackmon is good, but he faced shitty defenses, body catches, Is 6'1 REGARDLESS of how big he plays, he wont play that big in the NFL. & Hes not as fast as his 40 time.
