So with all the skill position players done (at least those who chose to participate) - who stood out to you ??
For me, in no particular order; Hampton, Tuten, Golden, Noel and Burden - those they were already near the top anyway.

Safety from Gamecocks that ran 4.38 at 220lbs, Emmonwori. Not gonna be many that outrun him for a long TD and if he has any pass rush chops, whew, goodnight QB.

Did someone order a bunch of really fast RBs? Felt like all of the ones i looked for went 4.4 or better except Devin Neal and Kaleb Johnson. RJ Harvey and Bhayshul Tuten both had me looking a bit more into them over the weekend. Both Ohio St RBs hitting 4.4... wheels up!

Yep - the RB class is looking pretty strong for sure. I really wish Hunter had done something, though apparently he interviews well and the game film is certainly eye-catching. ...
As a Clemson fan, I can't give an unbiased assessment of a 'Cock so best to say nothing - not that he didn't have a good few days.

So we all agree that Quinn Ewers fucking sucks with all the WR talent he had to work with

Worthy Mitchell Whittington last year and Bond Golden this year

Feel sorry for the fan base of the team that drafts him

I wasn't even super high on Worthy until someone pointed out (in detail) that Ewers sucks.

Someone would name their kid BigCock McCannonArm if that's how it worked

You laugh. But there is a baseball player whose nickname is Heavy. And his last name is Johnson.

Heard his career was cut short due to lower back problems

Kaleb looked super smooth in the on-field stuff.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

Interesting take on the tush push and defensive formations to combat it

@averagejoe
It may be noteworthy considering that they implemented the rule for SAFETY issues. Here's the 2013 rule change FOR THE DEFENSE ONLY that Stink was talking about:

If the D can't do it the offense shouldn't be allowed either.

Rather than every team having a unit of bigs for the Brotherly Shove and always converting on whatever-and-1, just apply the same rule to both sides of the ball.

This would end up trickling to a lot of things. No more of those 3 yards runs that turn into 5, 7, 10 yard moving pile ups once the linemen start pushing a RB being stood up by a LB. Not only would the refs have to blow the play dead, but if ia push was attempted, there would have to be a penalty called.

I'm in total agreement with that too.. it used to be against the rules, they stopped enforcing it in the 90s, changed it entirely in 2006, no reason it can't be written in again.
