They should think they're the best if they're gonna be out here trying to be the best. Jamaar Chase has the perfect amount of diva. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously he didn't have his best career statistically, and likely wont ever again at this point, but the nuance and skill he has in his game....what a player he is. what an absolute effing football player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I don't worry about players like him. He will productive as long as he wants to keep playing and stays injury free for most part. WRs like him can go until they about 35. Nobody compares to the GOAT, Jerry Rice, but he was still throwing up 1100-yard seasons at 40. Invest in diva route running WRs with even a little juice and you can have a decade plus long player. Diva like OBJ that was built on speed, you see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is/was truly dedicated to the craft the same way Hopkins is. The guy who really baffles me is Julio. He had to have been a maniacal worker to have the career he did, but talk about a schmuck ending to a HOF career. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hamstrings killed his career, his game was built off explosiveness too many hamstring injuries will rob you of your juice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Hope- Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 this probably isn't fair to fautanu, but man the more i watch of him i just get aaron brewer flashbacks. he's a great mover who is undersized and can't handle power *at all.* it's not to the extreme degree that made brewer basically unplayable but i have a bad feeling that in the nfl we're gonna see him get tossed into the QB's lap more times than you'd like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think his issue with power is technique. I think he doesn't do a good job of generating power from his lower body and overreaches. Definitely fixable in the NFL imo. He's built like a brick house and is 317 lbs despite the height, so it is weird to see him get beat by bull rushes the way he does. Just look at them thighs!

KingTitan Posted April 9 Author Share Posted April 9 I have some concerns. But I'm gonna trust respected people that he is OT1. Saw some getting pushed around. Missing run blocks. Looked a little slow some. But great technique. I don't see flawless prospect but all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
