t.rashy is censored but pure ass> isn't. Odd.
That is why I love you, brother; you get me.
If darnell has a knee issue like everyone is claiming I would like to see how fast he runs his 49 without one. Best tight end in the combine by far.
How would anyone know he has a knee issue after his performance at the combine? He was impressive there. Did he workout for anyone after that?
I give up trying to figure out the draft. AR15 the #4 pick, DW0 in the 3rd round, Ringo not even picked yet....W.T.H?
Tight ends don't win NC's or go 29-1. Teams do that.
At this point Ringo should’ve stayed for another year. He’s way better than 4th round or worse. Somebody is going to get a steal. Feel bad for him he’s way better than some of those CB that have been taken ahead of him.
Darnell surprised me slipping that far. Great pick by the Steelers.
Ringo…has lots of bad tape…and many think is playing out of position. And perhaps insisting on staying at corner?
Maybe so. But so does Richardson at Florida and he went 4th. Richardson has horrible tape to be honest. Ringo with his size and speed is hard to find. he also has tape covering the other teams best receiver every game where he did really well. He’s better than most of the CBs taken so far and will be a steal.
Yeah I agree. AR pick is hilarious and probably not a great comparison to the Ringo situation. My gut tells me if Ringo was willing to switch to safety he’s long gone
His medicals aren’t getting any better. He was CB1 or 1A on back to back championship squads. He gains little by returning.
Rumors are swirling he his less than totally receptive to playing safety at the next level which may be his more natural position. Seems he is suffering from a similar fate as Jamaree Salyer did last year.
And then Jamaree went out and played “gangbusters” last year….
Go Dawgs!
One of our former posters would have pointed out that, at 6'2", he is too tall for the position. Can't drop his hips well enough and would be better suited for safety. Hmmm.
I think Ringo is a natural safety playing out of position.
That said, he's a very talented cornerback.
Bargain material at this point.
Go, Dawgs!
I gotta be honest, it smells like pure gasoline.
I hear the frustrations in our fans voices. Trying to make sense out of the nonsensical is taxing on the brain. I had to shut off the tv early in the third round.
Some of the guys taken early in the draft have some impressive film, but it's much easier to put together a highlight real when the competition is bad. It certainly calls into question the thinking of NFL team analysts.
I'm not buying the Darnell knee problem. As has been accurately pointed out, he balled out at the combine. You don't run his forty time with a bad knee or effectively run a Shuttle drill. Makes no sense.
Ringo is a mystery too, along with Chris Smith. Yes, Ringo has stiff hips, but he makes up for it with blazing speed. There's no way he's a 4th or 5th round CB, even if he could have used another year at UGA. I have a hard time believing that some of the guys picked thus far are better than Chris Smith. I'm sure his 40 time hurt him, but look at the film!
Agree something doesn't jive. Every Dawg is only a standout because of all the talent around him, but the talent isn't all that great when isolated against national talent.
I guess Stet carried this team on his back to 2 Natties.
I don't think t's the knee injury itself but, rather the tendency to get injured on his part. But what do I know? His knee might be (likely was) healthy enough to perform at the combine. But how likely is it to stand up to game type action? That might be the issue.
