    Next year could be a complete disaster.

    On the order of a 6-6 season, going 2-6 in the conference.

    I agree. Landry has everything except the ideal height of a 1st round WR. You either have to have great size or super speed. But I'm not exactly sure about the rest of the WR class coming out this year so may have to hold judgement.

    I would hope not, considering the defense ought to be better.

    Jarvis Landry is a slam dunk 1st round pick.

    Everything you want in a receiver.

    6'1" is not short in the NFL. Not many receivers in the NFL that are as strong as Landry is as a Junior in college.

    Remeber Anquan Boldin. He was never fast and now is slow but has hands that are like a boa constrictor. Landry reminds me of him and one of my favorite Tigers (and Saint) Eric Martin. Dude ran a 4.6 at best but was a killer WR.

    I agree, he probably has the best hands of any WR coming out next year. Even makes me remember Early Doucet but his hands weren't that great.

    I thought he was listed at about 5'10" or 5'11" coming out of HS? He doesnt seems shorter than 6'1." I think he lacks the ideal speed and elusiveness to be a first rounder in the NFL. He very similar to Josh Reed IMO. I hope youre right though. He is by far my favorite current Tiger. His hands are just amazing. I love his fundamentals, he catches everything with his hands. His hands are also always in perfect position unlike most receivers. He is so polished. I remember Deion Sanders saying he is the best pure WR he has seen since who ever or maybe ever?

    LaSalleAve when in doubt, mumble

    Good call Winston, he definitely reminds me of Boldin, strong and physical receiver in a big frame that just plucks receptions.

    How bout the catch in the endzone on the kickoff by Beckham?

    That doesn't seem humanly possible what he did.



    I mean, wtf?

    You do know this was the second time he did it this year?
