why so much h8 towards denard man damn

i dont even fuck w michigan like that im a state fan

but shit the kid is a playmaker he's even been playin a lil bit of rb


There's no hate, I just don't believe he'll have much, if any success in the NFL. Sure he can fly by kids in college, but EVERYBODY is fast in the NFL. Everybody is good in the NFL. He looked small out there in college. Whats going to happen when he gets lit up going across the middle in the NFL?

I asked what he has shown you to make you believe he'd even be average at slot receiver and/or returner in the NFL. It was a legit question. I wasn't saying that for some kind of a agenda or anything, I seriously want to know.

The slot might be the hardest WR position to play and you think he is going to be a great slot receiver, when he has never even played it?

well generally slot recievers run routes that get them into the open field, and like i said if denard gets into the open field he is a problem, i'm not saying he's gonna be an every down reciever or anything but being as fast as he is he clearly has potential to play in the nfl and KR/PR? not much required there besides speed, with the right offensive coach utilizing denards legs he could be trained to be a weapon

Exactly, the slot is about running precise and perfect routes. It's one thing moving a WR to the slot, it's a whole different situation moving somebody to slot who has never played WR. He should know some routes, as he did play QB, but knowing and running routes correct are two completely different things.

There's a lot more to being a returner then just speed. You have to have patience, good vision and know when to go. Having great speed helps, but it also helps you run straight into the back of your blockers.

your saying that denard doesn't know how to use his blockers and make cuts? lol have you ever watched a michigan game?

and most slot plays are basic streak stuff

I seen him using his great speed as an advantage vs less superior talent. He wont have that advantage in the NFL.

Slot receivers run the full route tree as well, they just have to usually run them better then the outside WRs.

I like the mock you posted... looks really good and you address most all of the teams needs without reaching etc.... I'm a bucs fan and as you have stated I can see us taking a D lineman but I believe it will be a DT. Bucs need a nice nose tackle to put beside McCoy. If the bucs don't resign micheal bennett and there is no secondary as you have listed it will definitely be a DE.
