19-20 College Football Prospects Thread

Never too early for potential draft prospects we like ...

WR Jerry Jeudy may get all the headline at Bama (well deserved), but Alabama WR Henry Ruggs III may be the next Tyreek Hill. That dude can fly ... just busted out a long one against SC. Super explosive!

 

[old duke]

He's also got good size - 6' -190 lbs. Maybe he'll be our pick to replace Agholor, who was traded to Miami for Minka!

Sign me up for Chase Young! With all these injuries, it's probably not far fetched.

Bringing this back up ... continue to think Ruggs would be a great option for us in Rd 1.

Yes sir. We need youth and speed at WR and CB.

 

[old duke]

Would you rather have Ruggs, or Hamler? I know it is a tough choice, but I think we can find big body receivers, but Hamler is a game-breaker on every play. Just me.

I like Ruggs more than Hamler ... Ruggs is bigger and excellent on contested balls aside from having game breaking speed. I also really like Laviska Shenault Jr., that dude has serious potential ... stuck with bad QB play in Colorado. A tough and athletic 6'2" 220 lbs with solid breakaway speed. Hamler has speed, but his size scares me off slightly from ranking him as high as Ruggs or Shenault. I think he's make a great replacement for Agholor in the slot though.

Good insights Rey. I am thinking Hamler as a successor to DJAX. PR/KR/WR. The whole package the DJAX has.
The good news is that the draft has a lot of speed receivers! Now if Howie would concentrate on getting 2 of those, he can replace the current roster at the other positions (ala Safety) with the rest of those picks he is bent on accumulating.

 

[eaglesnut]

Must have speed.

We must be the slowest damn team in the NFL.

We need speed at safety, wide receiver, linebacker, and cornerback.

Discuss: Chase Young out for game vs. Maryland.
Wonder what this is all about. Might cost him in the rankings if it's a legal issue.

it's for an infraction from 2018. My guess it may have been taking money from an agent. This is what makes me go crazy when you get these high 5* recruits. I'm glad TOSU self reported this. Lesson learned after the tattoo scandal from the Tressel era.

 

[Rey]

Chase is going to be a top 5 pick ... dude's a beast.

 

[old duke]

Yes he will. Depends upon any of the top 5 teams in the pecking order that want a QB. I can see Chase being anywhere in the top 3 picks. Too bad he didn't play for PSU!

This is my recent thinking of Howie regarding his regard for stud WR's: Howie Roseman’s poor drafting among reasons for Eagles wide receiver struggles

This weekend's Alabama vs LSU game has loads of potential draft prospects. If you're a draft junkie like me you can't miss it

Yea

Yeah, I will definitely be glued to this game. Buckeyes at noon on FOX and the LSU plays later. Gotta see Joe Burrow light up that Bama defense.

Oh yeah PSU/Minn @ Noon.
Bama/LSU @ 3:30

Doing errands early, and settle in by the fireplace and watch and scout. Oh yeah Rey, It's freezing up here!

 

[old duke]

Mall, word is that Chase is going to miss 4 games, although OSU is appealing. If he only misses 2 games, he'll be back to play PSU, darn it!

 

[old duke]

Well, Penn State choked. Minny is good, but we gave the game away. Came back strong on defense, but the offense is erratic. No way they beat Ohio State with this offense. the coordinator is terrible. The receivers can't get open.

Word from what I'm hearing is Chase will miss 2 games and will be ready to roll up on Clifford and PSU. The Buckeyes can win without him, but if he is a go, it's going to be a long day for you guys. The Buckeyes are scary good. This may be out best squad in quite some time.
