But yeah Raheim looked good and helps having that experienced solid OL as well as a tank of a QB running the ball also. Johnson tore his ACL against Penn State in the bowl game and just got back to practicing last week. He might be back against South Carolina this weekend but idk how many carries he'll get.

In 2019 when he was his heaviest according to this, he had almost the most yards of any year and had most yards per catch at 17.7 and tied for most TDs at 6. Does seem odd him moving down in weight but maybe it was to improve his conditioning, either way he ripped Florida apart and dominated in that game.

Kuithe feels like a better version of Ben Skowronek. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think adding 5-10 lbs is easy for most of these guys, and if you have a guy who's 6'2" and 225 as a WR, that's huge. He's not a big TE, but you wouldn't be drafting a 6'3" 235 TE for blocking either. That's how big Chig Okonkwo is, and he had plenty of fans. That's not that much bigger than Kuithe.

I agree, and yes adding pounds for most is not a problem, and if he does indeed play WR he could be successful there as well and would be a top of the line blocker for a WR. Kuithe is really an outstanding blocking when he is in motion and pulled across the formation, as a HB lead blocker type he is very good on the move. And as a route runner he is not that far off from a true WR and does play out wide at times for Utah. He is a damn matchup problem because he can do so many things and they move him around and no reason why he could not do similar things in the NFL. The 4:24 mark he is out wide and makes a nice play with very solid route running. Then the 5:38 mark he pulls around as a blocker and does very well. The 6 minute mark helps show his power and aggressiveness as a blocker driving the defender. Then the 9:30 mark he does very well blocking on the edge and moving, sure at times they are DBs he is up against but still he is an aggressive blocker no question. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 Not sure if they were mentioned Lonnie Phelps (formerly Miami Ohio) and Jacob Windmon (formerly UNLV) two undersized transfers had great games for Kansas and Michigan State. It’s always fun to see how the transfers do on bigger stages. 3 and 4 sacks both looked good getting after it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoundrel Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 He’s a true sophomore and I know he was a 5 star and top 15 recruit but a player I’ll be high on in the 2024 draft cycle is Ja’Tavion Sanders TE Texas who is now getting his shot to display his abilities.
