Chickillo submits paperwork to Draft Advisory Board

[lauderdaleballer]

You can't judge NFL potential for recent UM players by what they do here. (See Sam Shields, McGee and others).

Shields should have moved and stayed at cornerback when he arrived at Miami. He had a very good senior season. The dude had NFL speed. Brandon McGee can run as well and he had a productive senior season considering Miami could generate no pass rush in 2012. DVD has the fastest kid coming out of the combine. If you go back, Jon Beason couldn't stay healthy but had a very good junior season. Sharpton is another kid who had a very good season in 2009. Hardly surprising these kids made rosters. It also took them a few years to get it going.

+1
Sometimes our fanbase gets caught up with bashing the players that they don't realize that the players they point out as having productive NFL careers were actually productive here... It just took them a while... Shields would be a better corner to this day if he made the switch earlier in his career... I thought McGee was a loss cause and I didn't like his signing... I felt he was offered a scholly because he was fast... He didn't much as a hs player... Well the kid proved me wrong and improved his senior year... Sharpton showed out as a senior as well... The guys were productive here but it took them a little bit longer...

Relax. Every kid should submit papers to the advisory board. Why wouldn't you? Free information. Chick isn't going anywhere.

Chick is crazy if he leaves early!!! He needs to stay and get better, faster, stronber, but can Doritos help him?

Exactly. It's a good barometer of where you are and where you want to go. Good motivation and the ability to put together an action plan.

I don't get how some of you so called came fans hate on chick .. Dude was is a good guy and gives his all on the field.. Idk how you can hate any player even if he doesn't play to YOUR expectations.. Only reason to hate on a cane is if he's ******** over the program

This. Guy has worked his *** off. Any draft eligible player with NFL aspirations is doing themselves a disservice if they do not submit paperwork.

I'm glad he submitted paper work. Maybe someone will let him know that he is not a DE.

That's the coaching staffs fault. The player just plays where they put him.

With that said, with the motor Chick had, if they developed him right and stopped trying to make him big and slow, he might have been solid. I think once an NFL coach gets ahold of him, he'll be fine. Sam Shields is a perfect example of wasted talent in college. They played him at WR and he had the worst hands ever. Got to the NFL and didnt even know how to watch film.
