tOfficial NFL Hokies Thread

[bigesse16]

A lot of questions about James Gayle by the scouts yesterday.

Possible early entree to the NFL? Gotta love his measurables. If he can stay healthy and play like he is capable of, you have to think he might.

 

[VT_Football_Fan]

Possible yes. But as you mentioned, lots to watch next season.

In Walter Football's latest mock draft, they have David Wilson going in the first round to the Giants (32nd overall) and Jayron Hosely going to the Bears in the second (50th overall). They don't have any other Hokies going in the first 5 rounds.

I think Coale will go in the 3rd-4th round personally

I hope that's not true for many reasons... I don't want David Wilson going to anyone in the NFC East other than my skins (which ain't happening).


But the Giants would be a good spot for him to challenge for PT right away.

Me too. If he slips past the 5th, whoever picks him up will be getting a hell of a deal.

I'm right there with you man. It pains me that both Vick and Darryl Tapp are on the Iggles (Darryl is one of my favorite Hokies all time).

Like them or not, the Gmen would be a great fit for Wilson. They've cut Jacobs and Bradshaw isn't exactly the greatest thing out there. He'd definitely get his fair share of carries and could be lethal catching short passes as they use Cruz and Nicks as decoys to stretch the field.

I just want Wilson to land a starting spot somewhere with a good OL so I can start him each week with confidence in fantasy.

Great video of Ryan Williams recovery process.

good find hohum...hope we can watch him play on sundays this fall

 

[Hokie200proof]

Wow. Great vid. Really hoping he makes it back 100%. With Beanie Wells as the #1, there's always PT to be had. I don't think Beanie has made it through a full season yet. I had him in FFL last year and it was his most productive year... but he still missed a few key games.

 

[Hokie200proof]

Also, shocker. Larry Fitzgerald is a really good guy as previously reported.

Maybe this belongs in the bball thread im not sure but anyway

Ravens Insider: Jeff Zrebiec's news, notes and opinions - baltimoresun.com

Not sure this belongs here or you’ll even care, but I figured I’d pass this along anyway: Ravens backup quarterback Tyrod Taylor is a ridiculously good basketball player. He turned the fourth quarter of Torrey Smith’s charity basketball game the other night into his own personal And1 Mixtape. He slammed down an alley-oop pass from half court. He put the ball around his back on his way to one layup and he hit numerous step-back 3-pointers. It was quite the show. You can see why team officials rave about his athleticism. He makes everything look so damn easy.

Reminds me during half time at a basketball game. Jarrett Boykin and Marcus Davis were the finals for the slam dunk contest. Tyrod was helping out Boykin I think? Neither Boykin or Davis did very well if I remember right. As they were leaving the court, Tyrod turns around, grabs a basketball and shows them up with an incredible dunk.

I once saw Tyrod and his team straight dump truck a group of guys in a intramural game. It was borderline Globetrotters vs Generals status. Dude can ball

It's the SEC way my friend. AJ Green and Julio Jones had horrible scores last year as well.
