....No, I was just trying to get an answer.


Brevin has been hailed as TE3 in this class behind Pitts & Freiermuth. Was juza trying to say he’s better than Pitts or Freiermuth? I’m not the grammar police, but he made that statement confusing.

Willing blocker who doesnt hesitate engaging bigger defenders and he is effective in that area plus he has the athletic and natural ability ( hands, YAC, make first man miss, easily getting separation from linebackers, red zone weapon) to be a major contributor in the passing game
So I think his skillset and versatility match very well with our offense

Etienne returning for his Sr year was a head scratcher. Between carries and receptions he’s got nearly 900 touches and looked less explosive. He cost himself some money.

Agree. I've really gone off him. Seems to just run in a straight line fast a lot. See very little from him in the way of cuts or major changes of direction.

Your guy Chuba does the same thing though which is I’d rather hope he’s there in the 5th instead of reaching for him in the 3rd.

I find this thread interesting. Are these guys saying the clip they offer is representative of their overall play? The problem is with this system you can find a good clip on just about every player. What this lacks is often comparison as to how these skills compare to other prospects at this position. There is also little analysis of technique that enabled this skill to be manifested. It’s very superficial. I used to get clips like this sent to me or YouTube links and too often when I went to see the player he was displaying this against a poor opponent or he’d be erratic. Sure the little capsules on the Internet do much the same but usually I know the credentials of the source and can rely that the descriptions are representative. They also typically use numerical designations to facilitate comparing prospects. The best way to judge a prospect is to find a difficult matchup and observe how he does. This is considerably painstaking, but produces the best results.

This would be easier if we had draft subform but we don't so there is nothing to do but throw "draft guru's thoughts on prospects" in one big pile. If somebody has a better by all means go ahead and post it.

How legit are these tweets idk but it is a free content and has to do with the draft.

I believe it's just representative of what they have seen overall. "I really like this players tape, here's one example" kind of thing.
