Again, not looking for "wow" factor here, looking for fit/role/etc. His junior season wasn't as successful stat-wise but it looks more like how we'd use him if we were to draft him. This is the first one I saw where I thought CMC immediately 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other 2 years, he was with a read-option type QB who cannot throw the football to save his life. I don't care what his numbers were last year, he flashed way more last year than he did in 2021 or 2022. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's better IMO than his 2022 tape IRT the NFL due to how much read option **** they ran with DJU at QB. He just looks so much more like an NFL RB in 2023 than 2022 despite the numbers dip. I don't care. Y'all buy what you want, I'm in on Shipley. Just, for the love of god, keep him away from San Francisco. The 2023 tape is absolutely better than the 2022 tape. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The move he put on the kid at the ~8 minute mark of the 2023 tape in the hole... Gimme some new ******* pants 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 One of Shipley's best traits is how accurately and crisply he tosses the ball back to the ref after the play Elite class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
persiandud Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 please stop comparing this kid to CMC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 For real though if you draft nerds would have dropped that 2023 highlight reel in here and told me he was a likely top 20 pick I wouldn't have fought you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Again, during draft processes, when people are mentioning comparisons, they aren't comparing ceilings, they are comparing play styles. I stated this earlier this week when talking about Shipley and comparing him to Aaron Jones. It's necessary to state it again. Nobody expects Shipley to be Christian McCaffrey the NFLer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
incognito_man Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 People saying "don't compare him to CMC" are the same people that say "I don't see color" Like I get it, it's probably a trope or something but he really ******* plays just like him, and is athletically identical to him so the comparison is obvious based on non-race traits. It's ok to compare them everyone. You're not being racist, I promise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ok to compare them everyone. You're not being racist, I promise. I remember getting roasted back in the day because I compared Mario Hezonja to Kobe Bryant. I'm like obviously I don't expect this kid to be one of the top 5-10 greatest players of all-time, I'm just saying, when I watch him, he obviously models his game after Kobe lol.
