the talent wasnt that different - the coaching was pathetic but the talent wasnt that different
and next year we have several guys that are going to high on the early draft rankings - Tiny, big dan, Jjames could all very well be 1st round guys with solid years next year | Darick will probably get drafted too. Might drop to the 4-5 for being an idiot though. |

If there were a dire need for WR then we could see three receivers that donned the Orange and White at one point being drafted in the first and second rounds. | |

When you think of him think Keyshown. Justin has freakish ability but his body type does not translate into getting a lot of punishment. | |

The ACL tear proved to him that he was human and so he realized is time could be limited so he did what he could to not get hurt and make it to the pros.
Overall it's hard to say which is the better long term prospect. Each has their own risk; Hunter's risk of reinjury and Da'Rick's risk of attitude problems. But if hunter can stay healthy and Da'Rick can keep his head on straight they could both have really productive NFL careers. | |

I would much rather have Hunter long term than Darick just based on team chemistry as well. | |

| Randy Moss and Jerry Rice were never jacked either and both had long careers.
Plus, Hunter lost a lot of opportunity to add bulk to rehab. He could still add size. | |
