eball Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Call me a homer (UNC grad and fan) but this kid has a great chance to make the roster. NFL genes and works very hard. Was not expected to play at all last season after being injured but worked himself back and wanted to play despite the fact the team was pretty bad and had no shot at a bowl.

I feel similarly about Cam Phillips
mannc Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 Anyone know what happened to Darren Carrington, WR from Utah? Very surprised he was not drafted. Has he signed anywhere?

Once a moron, there's never turning back! Of course, you could simply roll your eyes at his lunacy, if he was actually good at his profession and caught passes from QBs. But nooooooooooo! Can't count on that.

Different era. In an time period where Dan Marino and John Elway were completing 57% of their passes, Brett Favre was basically completing 55% in college. In a time period where better QBs are completing roughly 64% of their passes, Josh Allen is hitting on 56%. It's an order of magnitude difference. It sounds small, but in fact it's huge.

In an era where spread and air raid systems have taken over college football 64% is becoming more the norm you can add a 5-10% drop from a spread system to an NFL type system which Wyoming ran He player under center nearly 50% of the time and took pro style 3-5-7 step drops His stats where not inflated from a system which is devised to have guys running open Edited April 30, 2018 by Buffalo716
Prickly Pete Posted April 30, 2018 Posted April 30, 2018 (edited) I think this kid, who is the kid of a former NFL WR (who was once a young kid too), has real potential. It's not often that a kid like this fall into the lap of a team like the Bills. This team is full of kids, good kids, who someday won't be kids anymore, but real NFL players. I like this kid.

And as i stated above, Brett Favre was nearly producing the same completion percentages as HOF QBs in the NFL. The comp that I am making is not to Mason Rudolph. I'm stating that using Favre as a comp is clearly off base; one of them was already showing an NFL capability in terms of his numbers when he played for SoMiss (and by the way, playing against top 25 teams). He is not in Brett Favre's class leaving college and it's absurd to put the two guys in the same sentence. And not a little unfair.

I haven’t said anything about Favre Matt Stafford was under 60% as a passer in college also Add 1.3 completions per game to Allen’s stats to compensate for drops and his completion % rises to a respectable 62.8% thats only 1.3 completions per game... it’s like he needed 100 completions to reach 60% he was 1 completion a game off. While running for his life in a pro style offense he was my #4 QB but he can easily become a superstar Edited May 1, 2018 by Buffalo716

He could, but it won't be easy and I'm hoping he's given the chance to start before the season ends ... unless AJ is en feugo.

Size 7.5 shoe, hands are bigger than his face, shoulder length hair and a 7" taint. He has drawn favorable comparisons to Donnie Osmond and one of the Coreys (they didn't specify which one)!! Big get!! 1 1
MrEpsYtown Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 It is one thing to have NFL bloodlines....This dude had that, plus he had an NFL recievers coach living in his house. His dad was a really good route runner and special teamer and that is how he hung around so long. Proehl is going to make this team.
YoloinOhio Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 (edited) They are talking about him on Golic & Wingo right now. They are sending him gifts because he’s their “Mr. Irrelevant”. They said Trey Quinn is actually relevant now that he’s “Mr Irrelevant” and gets a rolex, etc. So they said Proehl is the real irrelevant as the penultimate pick in the draft.

wppete Posted May 1, 2018 Posted May 1, 2018 The more i learn about Austin Proehl the more I like this pick. Alright size for slot I guess ( Wes Welker Type). He is quick and fast, re ran a 4.4 at the regional combine in Tampa. Really smooth route running and great hands. he played well the 2016 with Trubisky throwing him the ball. We dont have anyone at slot right now so he will fight for the job. Last year he was hurt majority of the year. If he is fully healthy this is good value at the second last pick of the draft. 1
