Why does your comment look like this
wait so we are taking an OV from xzavier henderson this weekend?
Inadvertently hit a key and didn’t know how to change back to normal. iPhone issue
I’m still going with this guy as next to commit. Maybe Zy. Walker pops this weekend as he is visiting
@SoFL_Dawg "Neither will play with Gilbert." - why is this? oil and water? bad personality? doesn't play well with others? alpha dogs clash????
Don’t know, it just is what it is. Some mesh well, some don’t.
I don't care if I get a million DVs for this, but I'd rather have 1 Gilbert than the possibility of both or 1 of Theo/Darnell.
I'll be happy with whatever happens, because I'm confident that staff will land at least 1 if not 2 of the 3, but just my preference.
AG is the most ready to play, and that is what we need.
UGA is in desperate need of a George Pickens impact type player @ the TE position in 2020.
We don't need to kick him to the curb in order to bring on 2 guys that can see the field in 2020, but not be the same level of impact.
We only need 1 of the 3 on the field at a time, so I don't see the need to carry 5 TEs going forward.
I'd rather take 1 5 star DSGB and give the other scholarship to a BPA or WR.
Once again just my preference.
Nothing wrong with having a preference, but I hope it doesn't end up causing you to sour on whoever we end up with just because they aren't AG.
Gotta love the one you're with.
Yea, like I said, I'll be happy with whatever happens.
Forgive my lack of film-study, but is Gilbert considered that much better than Washington? From my understanding, Washington is a beast as well.
I also understand that we run two TE sets sometime, so having another solid TE would be good from that perspective (assuming the gap between Gilbert and Washington isn't massive enough to counter the addition of Johnson). And additional depth is always nice, as we've discovered from our DB's this year.
As far as needing #s at TE... I saw a stat the other day where the Dawgs have run virtually zero plays without TEs on the field so I’d guess Kirby is going to get 2.
Sure wouldn’t mind Gilbert but frankly I’d be worried he’d end up being a transfer portal candidate if he wasn’t happy with how he was being used. 🤷♂️
Why do we keep hearing about this in dramatic absolutes like “He’d NEVER play alongside so and so” and more but when everyone asks or wonders aloud why there is so much friction we always hear “I don’t know...just a feeling”. Seems to be more than that.
I disagree, in terms of body, I'd say Darnell is equally as ready, if not more ready. I think Gilbert is just more developed as a pass catcher, which is nice, but that's exactly why I'd love the duo, I'd be willing to say Theo is AG's equal in terms of athleticism and Washington is bigger and more physical than Gilbert. Really what stands out to me about Gilbert is how developed he is as a receiver, which is nice but can be achieved through hard work, also the fact that he could be an NFL DE if he wanted to makes him enticing.
I absolutely love Gilbert, but if he wants to play receiver I think you already have the same player on your roster in George Pickens.
Super elite ball skills, but will not scare anyone as a vertical threat. To me it’s much more important that Georgia signs a true tight end, and an absolute burner like Arian Smith.
Read the background stories on D Wash. and his adversities and where he’s coming from. I’ll take him any day of the week and twice on sundays over Arik. His film doesn’t lie either. You can argue competition but Darnell could play about 4 positions on the field. He’s going to be a special player.
edit : That being said I would take either happily 😁
