The last thing you want to do is turn the ball over in the red zone.
Maybe if he becomes more secure with the ball, and maybe even learns to read blocks better, he will be trusted for that down there.
Despite that lack of trust, he still got the first carry on the 1 yard line on that horrific goal line sequence against OSU.
100m times make no fucking difference if you need a perfectly blocked play to show it off. We need a guy who can get us the dirty yards and stay healthy/hold on to the ball while doing it.
Like Kelel Mullins did for UM this year.
DMo is actually pretty talented, maybe if he’d maintained his 5 star ranking, he’d get more respect
His only real competition for the slot is a potential portal guy. He’s our best blocking WR and he runs above average routes with enough speed to go with it. He also reads the defense correctly more often than not.
Deandre Moore was never supposed to be a superstar this year. Neither was Ryan Wingo.
Bond was the guy penciled in for that, Golden also had a good chance of breaking out.
Moore seized the opportunity, did more than I expected, and now hopefully he steps it up another level as the clear #1 or 2 and gets drafted next year.
Nah. This kid can play. If he's actually 6'3 he's gotta be more than 205, but he moves very well for his size, has long arms, and plays strong through contact.
Good LBs fly under the radar all the time. Look at TyAnthony Smith just last year.
Will Howard is playing football on easy mode this year. He didn't magically become a better QB up there. The offense he runs has very easy reads baked into every play call. He has overwhelming talent advantages in most games which stresses the defense and clarifies his reads presnap more often than not. His legs and size are his biggest value adds
This isn't real football, he'll get someone fired for drafting him based on what he did this year.
Lack of discipline extends well beyond his coverage abilities.
He isn't even a good enough athlete to justify dealing with him. Glad he was able to last this long in the league, but I hope he's been smart with his money.
Orogbo's "knee injury" was a non serious thing that was more about taking care of before starting his college career. Something he was born with, not ligament related
Juan has been on ST for much of his career iirc. He wasn’t as wiggly as I expected, but he seemed like a good teammate.
I’m glad he found his way on the field before moving on.
Not wanting to do Burnt Ends doesn't make him a bad teammate. Just couldn't find a role once other guys stepped up.
Hope he finds success whenever he doesn't play us.
Injury? Orogbo's frame and first step are elite. He's raw, but humble despite all the instant success/attention.
My only concern for him is persisting through the shit steak. If he's willing to grind, he'll be just fine.
Niblack's biggest issue was not being able to pick up the offense. Maybe his lack of immersion in the culture was a part of that, but if he could be trusted to play the position, he would have played.
If Gunnar didn't turn into what he did this year, he probably plays a bit more too.
