I think if DRob leaves he will get drafted way later than if he stays another year and is healthy all year. The best film he’s got is his freshmen year where he played in the PAC 12 with far less superior athletes than the SEC and a lot more zone than man coverage.
Right. Seems y’all have already forgotten how he looked weeks 1-2. Seems like many don’t understand what the NFL values. The production hill, in a run first offense, is not something scouts will die on. Furthermore, injuries would compel a player to jump early and secure the bag, not stay in school.
He’ll be a 4.3 guy at the combine. Won’t be many of those, less than 4. Has good-great hands. Can line up inside and outside. Willing blocker. Won’t get past the 3rd round and go to a better team.
Only way he stays is if Fromm returns, which he also doesn’t have much to gain in returning. If Fromm leaves, no way Drob stays to help break in a new QB.
He’s hard to judge, yes he has elite speed but so did Jacoby Ford. Demetris is still skinny and I don’t know his 3 cone drill or 20 yard shuttle times so I can’t say how quick he is which I think he will need to be quick to be successful cause he’s not going to put muscle a nfl defender based on his size. Quickness, route running, and being able to catch are the biggest skill a wr needs to be successful in the nfl. Based on the last year and a half I’ve seen Demetris he hasn’t shown me anything to get drafted 3rd or higher. Potentially he can go 1-2 rounds but I haven’t seen anything he’s done that made me say “yep that dude can be a game changer”.
Reminds me of Le’veon Bell size-wise
Can’t wait to see him at Athens
I hope TJ isn't watching Penn State play today. TE having a big day early.
Ha, wishful thinking
Do we have reason to feel bullish on TJ again?
Hint: coffee mug or Natalie hammock gifs are both equally welcome responses (!)
Based on what I recently read, I’d say no. Haven’t heard any different on him since ND.
Not UVing the status of his recruitment but appreciate you taking the time to respond/share knowledge as always. Thank you!
So will Oklahoma lose all of their recruits just like us? /s
Maybe Jadon can qualify for hardship transfer thru portal /
IDK about y'all but when Jeff starts telling me over and over how Mikey Henderson is a weapon, Dawgs have been on him for awhile, etc....when I'd never heard of him before 2 weeks ago...it makes me a bit more pessimistic on Theo Johnson. 🤷
Definitely. Thought this with many players. He had me worried with Ringo when talking about Manning also.
It’s hard to get a read on these guys from the limited hudle videos, but Henderson looked to be more elusive with good feet like Gilbert, but a project 2 years+ away from being a TE and short at that. Calling him a bigger version of Tyler Simmons blocking like Jeff said early doesn’t help but he has real tools if he develops. We probably better off going for BPA at another position if TJ goes elsewhere
If you follow Jeff's oft repeated maxim "Follow the visits", Hartley tweets aside, I question whether we were ever in the lead for Theo Johnson. He went to Penn State during the break between dead periods and has been to three Penn State games this season (two on campus, one while on an OV to Iowa). The staff he has the longest and most established relationship is Penn State. Hartley may be able to pull it out in the end but if you pair the above with the fact the TE is getting far more usage in Penn State's offense than ours, the sudden emergence of Mikey Henderson is not surprising. At this point, with Gilbert committing to LSU, I would about Washington because you know Bama is going to make a heavy push and there is a better recent history of using the TE position there.
That’s what great staffs do, they identify and stay in contact with several players at each position, until the class is signed. If you don’t have a backup plan, or three, you’ll eventually get burned.
Jeff, you're the man. Hope you're having a good weekend, cause you just made mine!
No. That's just us.
Well, maybe Jadon Haselwood will decommit, then after we win the SECCG he can run naked through the streets yelling "WE GOIN TO THE NATTY WOO WOO"
Judging from his Twitter profile likes, he isn’t too pleased:
