I’d have Jayce Brown higher but looks gucci beyond that



I like him, but he is a deep threat like Jackson Harris and Tre Brown are.

Watkins fits better in the slot if those two are your outside WR's.


Jayce Brown will play a lot though.

Yeah I’m not saying you were lol. I actually appreciate that you did some detailed work. That’s more than most of us do. You’re not always right, but you do the work.

I’m not denying his athleticism and that he could be really good. I’m just saying he has, at this point, done nothing.

Not sure if you downvoted my response or not, but I was just telling it like it is...your responses are controversial. you know this. you enjoy it.

You also bring good info and I respect it. So if you downvoted my response, but it wasn't intended to be a shot

I don't know how anybody would get upseet by what you said. We have some guys from smaller schools. Beyond coaching staffs, who would have a lot of tape on these guys? Trust our staff and don't shoot the messenger.

clammy, elzy could emerge, who knows. I think the hardest thing here is to figure out which WR this offense will make a star of

70% of Jayce Brown’s snaps were out of the slot last season.

I know you said it probably wouldn’t be the best portal class, but can they be top 3?

Ever?

What do you think Kiffin is going to do when he has the same money but only has to fill 20 spots and not 42?


This is a really good class but outside of the specialist, 25% of these guys may be starters? There were so many holes to fill, the quality will just never be there.

Could be eventually

I tried to balance experience & talent with a little bit of 2026 projection & impact.
