exactly. Crowton pulled a sucker punch play at just the right time and it was bang bang. as soon as anyone could realize the formation the ball was out of flynn's hands and Dickson was in the end zone. not exactly on laruinits.

This support his "instincts" though. He was in the area of the play, even when the ball was thrown somewhere else. They showed the OU one with Gruden and it was impressive to me how he knew where it was going to develop. It was 1 play, but I thought a good read


He was next to someone who tipped the ball. You say instinct, I say lucky anomaly. If he could play college another year, do you think he would have anywhere near 7 pics again?

the better question is could someone with no arms make 5.5 tackles for loss playing MLB against the big ten and armed forces for 13 games? I think yes.

But man, he was invited to the Heisman Trophy Presentation Ceremony! That's at least worth a first round grade according to Greenie.

And JL has been in the top 15 in NFL tackles each of his 4 years. That can't suck no matter what

Yes, it can.

The fact that everyone here is a better analyst of talent than people who do this for their job, and get fired if they screw up, is laughable.

I opened by saying that I think Te'o is overrated, but he can still be an extremely solid player in the NFL. I think JL is the best comparison as such. If you are picking at the bottom of the first round and can get a guy who would guarantee you 500 tackles in his first 4 years, who wouldn't take that? That's what Te'o looks to become

He had one game this year against anything resembling an NFL and he was irrelevant. I don't think he guarantees 8 tackles a game.

OU int was tipped. First Michigan int was thrown right at him and he didn't dive, and the second was tipped again. Navy int I wouldn't call a dive. You fail.


Yes they were tipped and he made diving catches. You Fail.
