The question on Howard is if Bama wants to use him. He was mostly ignored last year. He is the better NFL prospect.

Seems like we don't know how to throw in the middle of the field. Even in the NC game he was used on the outside rather than in the middle of the field.

Looks interesting, let's see how much of this comes to be. Fournette looks like the real deal though.

one of the best backs I have seen in a long time. I can not imagine him being a bust in the NFL, unless injuries occur.

I doubt King makes first team this year. No one is going to throw to his side so his numbers will be down. Should make the D even better though

I honestly agree with this. I think OJ Howard is a better TE than Butt is, but Butt will probably be more productive because of the system he's in. Terms of pure talent, Howard is better.
Butt will catch a lot of balls. LOL.

That's because Butt had a major injury in the Orange Bowl. Of course that's going to dramatically impact his draft ranking. I mean, SI even says in the evaluation:

"Don’t sleep on the group below them, though, led by Butt, once thought to be a potential Round 1 option himself but now rehabbing from a knee injury."

Let's just compare the 2016 season

Butt (in two less games): 46 receptions, 546 yards, 11.8 YPC, 4TD's
Howard: 45 receptions, 595 yards, 13.2 YPC, 3TD's

Howard was also the highest rated blocking TE in the country.

I've seen Howard being mocked as high as 4th to the Jags. That's still better than a potential 1st round pick, meaning Butt could have been taken in the 2nd round. Sure the injury is going to impact his draft stock, but it's not like he would have been selected ahead of Howard anyways.

Pfft, not even as much potential as a D-II basketball player :pound::pound:

Bears select Ashland TE Adam Shaheen with No. 45 pick in NFL draft after trade with Cardinals

I did read the article and it didn't point to any "liberal programming". The best they could do is point to a black issue website(shocking black athletes would be interested in black issues) and Caitlyn Jenner winning an award(OMG the horror).

I'd rather this not get moved to the pf so I'll refrain from taking the bait......
