Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[ob79]

I know Winston is projected to do really well this week but he is also without Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Scotty Miller. He turns the ball over a ton I just can’t put faith in a guy who’s so turnover prone without his best weapons. (I’m also playing against him this week in my championship game so I’m praying he sucks this week). I’d definitely start Mahomes.

That's the way I'm thinking too, play with the one that got you there...plus it's Mahomes, so...yeah.

 

[Pane di mais]

Albright doesn't hurt our ranking. Bottom few guys hardly matter whatsoever due to their algorithm.

For example: we switch him out for a new lowest rated guy - a typical 84 rated, mid 3* player...

We go from
247.01 to
247.46

A whole .45 bump.

Albright affects the average, but has no material effect on our ranking whatsoever.

Yes. What Albright affects is the kicking game! (Maxim 6)

Why would Winston even play much? Bucs playing for a worse draft pick?

What's our average without Albright?

Just had the feeling that this was going to be a great day for the good guys in orange!
Too many positive vibes in and around the program! Wish some of those hand wringers on here would get fully on board.
Sitting on 20. Will be very selective with the last five spots.
Joseph, Oxendine, Washington today would be a fantastic way to finish today.

He's playing for a contract, so yes, definitely.

 

[HalfullVol]

Maybe Burch is what all the online fuss was about last night. Not UT-related, but nonetheless, going somewhere he wasn't suspected.

How in the world does Muschamp get two 5 stars (one in his backyard) coming off their horrible season?

same way we did...

Well, not sure why we couldn't do Joseph like I asked but since it was a free favor..thanks lol.

 

[HalfullVol]

Thanks. I think I’m just overthinking it. Brady has looked awful but it’s scary to trust Tannehill. Prescott being hurt scares me too.
Ingram has been my starter all year but Mixon might be a better pick this week against Miami. I keep going back and forth

in my championship as well this weekend.

wish i had Mixon or Drake playing against each other's historically bad defenses.

 

[chavisut]

Would someone add Joseph and do away with Albright on the 247 calculator, just to get a more realistic idea?

Yes it's stupid that Will (the real OG) hurts the numbers but I'm still curious

He doesn't really hurt the number.

Jordan Burch South Carolina ~for the next 3-4 years I will be losing to Tennessee

Need champ to get fired next year. He's crootin too well. Bury him while we can.

I don't understand how he's recruiting just as well as we are after that season...

 

[volfaninpa]

same way we did...

Cornbread?

 

[MoCo_Vol]

So I've got a $500 prize on the line if I win this weekend and I just had Chris Godwin (the #2 overall point scorer at WR this year) go down with a hammy so, I'll take any help from y'all...

QB:

Mahomes or Winston

(and before anyone goes nuts, Winston has scored over 35 points the last 2 weeks in my league, while Mahomes is steady at the mid-upper 20's)

Flex:

Deebo Samuel or Tyler Higbee

Texans have a bad passing defense, but Tampa losing Godwin & Evans while playing for nothing. Kansas City still has a lot to play for, but Chicago has a good passing defense...hard choice.

I'd go Winston I guess since they play at Tampa, but my gut tells me Mahomes for some reason. (maybe see how bad that Chicago forecast is for Sunday night?) Also Higbee been getting a ton of targets/yards so I'd go with him.

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

Burch just committed to USCjr lmao

uscjr gonna end up with a better class than us.

On a year where they win 5 games, and with muschamp on the hot seat.

How tf does that happen?

 

[Bearwallow Bandit]

Ouch at these class rankings...
USC Trojans @ 76
Missouri @ 84
Arkansas @ 113

SC at 76 is nuts. Bozo the clown could be head football coach there and pull a top 15.

 

[VolunteerHillbilly]

I see why titans fans hope TB balls out, but it seems like Winston is a known commodity. Hard to think he'll earn much more by balling out now. Could wind up hurt with no contract.

 

[WarMachine]

aah. did he die?

USC? Almost dead.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

Lazy as hell and doesn’t use his hands at all. Those were my biggest issues with him. He should’ve put up insane numbers vs the competition at catholic.

Ugh

Need to fahr everyone I guess.

I'm leaning Mahomes hard because, it's Mahomes. Winston is a turnover machine but he throws the hell out of the ball, and even though the team doesn't have a lot to play for, he sure as hell does, hence my dilemma.

And I'm thinking Higbee too...but I hate using streaky players like that.

Godwin going down with the hammy sucked.

 

[bignewt]

QB - Tannehill and Prescott

RB - Mixon or Drake

prescott, drake

 

[Devo182]

Kendall Dennis with the UT hat on the table. Going to OU...said it was the coaches. LMAO OU DB coach...? Vs Pruitt/Ansley.

Maybe some elite DBs just don't want to be coached by the toughest coaches that actually know their shiz...but they won't be successful going that route.

 

[Devo182]

Now ESPN talking up Grimes (ESPN has them #17). Obvious they've never watched a Mt Juliet game...

He's recruited pretty well every year he's been there. He is just a terrible coach, they have had good players like Kinlaw and they will still be terrible next year. Burch will enjoy being double teamed every play.
