It's really difficult to take Moore when we have Harley and Thomas already but there is no doubt the kid is going be a stud wherever he ends up.
Camron Davis moved up like 100 spots, sheesh.
Great comeback Brooklyn about the redzone and over the top! But overall I disagree with you in this debate and slightly prefer the most dynamic players to be taken. It sounds like U have some trepidation that the emergence of these 1b WRs are threatening the value of Hightower with the staff (I'm probably wrong). Moore and Harley differ in that Moore's physique is much more powerful so he can break tackles and at the same time is more elusive, "twichy", and able to create space in small areas than Harley. Harley doesn't have the hips that Moore does (watch Harley return kicks for STA), Harley is a str8 line speedster and deep threat route runner ala Phillip Dorsett or Desean Jackson. If Harley gets touched on this level, he is going down immediately. Also, Harley should redshirt and Moore won't need to after this coming senior season, he'll be field ready.
The good thing about this log jam and WR is that they still have a senior season to play, so we'll see more film. Everything will work it's way out. That's promised.
We have thomas, harley, mullins, and dallas who are all 5'10. 3 of them were in last year class. I think that many smaller wrs is enough for 1 roster.
And size is important because this staff values blocking at wr. Having a bunch of smaller guys out there trying to block isnt the best idea.
And it's not like the big guys are plodders.
Guys like Kevin Austin, Daquris Wiggins, and Brian Hightower can run. Evidence Njoku can really run too.
Yea but if kids like Moore and Swartz keep your D cheating over the top...You tweak a O to the strength of your personnel...We do best out of the spread right now which gives kid with elite quickness and speed a chance to shine..til the oline proves it's worth as run blockers we cannot afford to turn down electric playmakers.IMO According to most we have Pope locked in....Wiggins and Pope aren't small....why not take two smaller ones too if they have "elite" talent?
There's you're first mistake is you're making an assumption on moving forward. Yet in that same assumption you discount our oline improvements by making it. Last year's team with last year's qb played best in the spread. Richt wants us as a physical team who can win from snap to snap. Not Boise state who runs gimmicks down in & down out. Clearly recruiting is based upon the staff's visions. We all have to agree on that as recruiting is done for the future of the team. By the way Pope is our small reciever this class at 6'1. If I come across confrontational I apologize as I don't have the energy for it. I just don't understand why if people can make an intelligent assessment like that why aren't they also able to realize what the staff sees this team as moving forward when it's constantly spoke about.
