Recruiting Forum Football Talk [RIP 9.3.2019]

Sanders would absolutely ruin people in today’s NFL. So would LT though. It’s between them IMO.

Can’t believe no one has brought up Marshall Faulk.

He would be even deadlier in todays game.

 

[AaronUT]

Bo Jackson. Not on the list cause it's no contest.

 

[peaygolf]

Not considered an all time great like those mentioned, but Roger Craig ( rushing and receiving) in today’s game would be amazing to watch.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

Never got to see Brown (before my time), but got to see each of the others play. I would honestly take Emmitt. I hate to say it.....but true. Jmo.......rings or not.

You're an old 90s Cowboys fan then.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

No. Based on the question asked, “Who would you take” it is relevant to who I would take

Would you rather have Marino for 10 yrs and zero rings or Bradshaw or 10 yrs and 4?

I'm pretty sure the original question was about talent, not accomplishment. If it was then I totally misunderstood the discussion.

Barry Sanders is the most talented running back I have ever seen.

Really not. Grew up a Steelers fan in the 70’s.

 

[Ulysees E. McGill]

"Your NFL team can have any one of the following, fresh out of college, for the next decade. Who do you pick??"

Pretty obvious to me...But he probably jumped in the convo without seeing that original post, and therefore didn't know what the eff we were talking about.

I misunderstood the question. I was basing my answer strictly on knowing what they did in the nfl........

Nevermind...I was catching up...you misread the OP in this convo, and hence the confusion..disregard that post.

Caught up...I know now.

Ahhh. I thought I was crazy

Na it is me still spent from New Year’s Eve/day

I respect the guys like Simmons that showed up to play, instead of sitting it out.

And I respect both sides. To each his own. There is no wrong decision and I do not Judge. However the horror stories only exist for those who play and have a catastrophic injury.

 

[LionPride]

i've been saying this since last summer. the 15 class in particular should have been our veterans on this year's team. 2/3 of that class never even made it to the 2018 season and only 2 left for the NFL. 2 retired all together. the rest just went away for whatever reason. one of the remaining kids of that class is our long snapper.

the "talent" on this year's team was vastly overrated by many....and all those analysts that said our roster was not good, were a lot closer to being right than any of us wanted to admit.

The class was good, it's the staff fault for not keeping them here. That's also part of coaching

 

[Smokey123]

Hurts just enrolled in grad school at bama. The dream is dead.

Did he enroll? I know he applied, where did you see that he enrolled?

SIAP...



Between this and the massive ratings drop I’d say college football is not meant for playoffs. I’ll be glad when it’s changed. More games is not the answer.

They still cost too much, that’s why people are staying home

These title games always seems to have lame crowds too. Who can afford to travel like this for more games? I want to go back to one game and preserve the integrity of the other bowls.

Naming a champ shouldn’t be this demanding. There’s over a 100 teams, dozens of conferences. Conference championships are the most important thing. I don’t like playoffs.

And if we’re honest college football is a bad product outside of the conferences.

It’s like I’m playing cards with my brother’s kids or somethin’, you nerve rackin’ sons of Bammers
