I was sold watching these playoffs that you have to have the guys like Javon Wims at receiver to bail the QB out when they get erratic. You can throw the ball to Wims on an 8 yard route on 3rd and 10 and he gets you the first. Other than Ahmmon, we have no one like that on the roster right now.

Langham may have won us a game or two doing that?. Im just saying?

He did on one play against FSU, the one against GT literally fell into his hands on a miracle, and late in the season he had the dropsies. Love him to death but wouldn't put him in the same category as Wims.

how much games of Wyms have you watched?...and he dropped 2 balls in the last game before we got to a water break
 
Man, had no idea about this. In my mind, I thought Cooper had far greater numbers. That said, Cooper has played in 6 fewer games.

That's cuz they haven't played to a draw. Cooper has been in the league one less year and has surpassed hurns in nearly every stat. This year its not even close.

I'm not going to even ether this statement. There's a reason why Cooper's numbers have been good, but way below what the Raiders expected. If I'm not mistaken, he's led the league in dropped passes each of his first 3 years by a wide margin too.

Ether my ***. If you are arguing that Cooper wasnt worth his draft status well thats one thing. But to say Hurns has played him to a draw is false.

gogeta4's initial statement was "Allen Hurns and Amari Cooper have almost played to a draw"

The numbers don't lie. Their career averages are really similar with Cooper only averaging 1 catch and 12 yards more per game. Touchdowns per game are identical.

i dont even know why its a debate. They have played ALMOST to a draw....also consider that Hurns plays with Blake Bortles a s a qb in jags offense...and the fact that he hasnt ever been the #1 option. Also based off this year....Hurns has been hurt almost the WHOLE YEAR..i know i have him on my fantasy team...even the games hes played he basically is gutting it out because he is the only **** wr for the jags that can line up right and audible routes to their other wr's. Amari cooper who also was on my fantasy team stunk it up a good part of the year...to the point i dropped him.

Hurns is an undrafted free agent....check the career avgs...they are very close even in yards per catch.

But if u want to CROWN his ***..CROWN IT. Ive only watcheed both play since they were 10th graders

yeah wims wasn't good last game.
The younger Ridley was about the only UGA WR doing anything
 
Love this guy. Plays with the Jarvis Landry edge and snatches the ball.

I'm a big fan too, db's won't be bullying him like some of the current small guys. Dude is a beast.
To be honest I saw our big guys like Langham and Cager get bullied more than Harley or Thomas. Cager did turn it on though but it was shocking to watch such big kids lack the consistent fight for the ball.

I just noticed Harley and Thomas having issues with getting off the press
Yes, absolutely you are correct there. I think our big guys did as well. I think Thomas and Harley will break out of that as they get bigger. Their blocking showed me a lot last year.

Well Langham didn't get to play enough for me to notice lol

We have 2 WRs graduating - Langham & Harris.
1 potentially Declaring early - Ahmmon Richards

With the 3 already signed, and assuming Ezzard is a Cane, that would put us at 12 total WRs this year - 9 after those 3 leave. Plus thats counting Deejay Dallas as a WR, who is more of a weapon that will be used all over.

We have room for 2-3 WRs next class. The thing about next class is there are a bunch of guys that can be taken as athletes who can play multiple positions like Mark Richards who could be WR or Safety, etc.


IMO we will use around 10-11 scholarships on offense in 2019:
qb -1
rb - 2
wr - 2/3
te - 1/2
ol - 4

So ur worried about the 2019 class when it comes to taking an elite wr like Ezzard in 2018?? Lol I can't even wrap my mind around this type of logic

wouldn't have a problem with it if Ezzard was elite. he's not, in my humble opinion.
 
When I watched Stockbridge the first time Ezzard caught like 7 TDS in 1 game. 1 or 2 was called back. After the game I asked his coach about him and he said “oh he’s committed to FSU” I told him I was a canes fan and that he needed to redirect the kid somewhere else.. at the time Miami hadn’t offered. I said I wish he’d be a cane or just go somewhere other than FSU. He decommits unexpectedly days later. Then a few weeks later we get in the picture...

Just read a message from his coach from earlier today... “Do you remember what you said about Marquez a couple months ago? It happened”

Dugans and Richt apparently closed the door today

Prior to this it had been he was interested in the playing time opportunity at Ole Miss and the offense they run but he has always loved Richt and Dugans. There was a point they almost backed away because he didn’t seem interested in Miami. But they kept pushing and apparently built by far the best relationship of his recruitment. His coach has always held that if Georgia offered he’d commit on the spot and that still holds true. Just hope they don’t need a late signing day WR because Georgia is aware that is the case with him..

It's about creating 1on1s in favorable situations. This guy 1on1 seems to be a matchup problem.
 
This is a great pickup as a 4th WR in this class. He could be someone #1 or 2 target and he is our 4th. Great job by Dugans if he gets his commitment.

I really like this kid as a big WR grinding out first downs and TD's.
 
Thia is a superstar in thw making. Wed absolutely have championship caliber depth at WR talent with this addition. We need recruiters like this on the defensive side.
 
When a guy like this is (in all likelihood) your 4th WR in the class, that speaks volumes to the amount of offensive firepower coming in.
