I think one of Sawyer or Odunze will be more of a Hunter Bryant type than a typical wideout. They're both close his size but faster.
This is the worst comp ever made on this website and I compared Jaden to KD.
It wasnt a comp you combative fuck. I said they're both close to his size (maybe a little bigger at the same age actually) and faster. Either one of them, but Odunze in particular, would thrive in that role and it gets more playmakers on the field.
There isn't anyone else on the roster with Bryant's size and agility aside from Culp.
Rome and Sawyer will play in-line tight end! Yes! They would thrive as tight ends!
Rome’s 6”3 205. He’ll play at 215-220 like my big wideouts. He’s not going to be 240+.
Bryant was 6'2" and about 220 for most of his time at UW. Rome is taller and nearly as heavy coming in. He has a frame to carry 240.
Bryant was all but useless as a TE aside from his role in the passing game. I'm bot saying Rome should be him, only that he has the physical tools to play the same spot only better. He appeared to get a lot bigger as a senior too.
You're just being a know it all, combative little prick...again. Have fun with that. You'll be on flameout watch again before too long.
Why would they limit Rome’s explosion, long speed, burst, and overall athleticism by getting him up to 240?
HB played at 240 hth. What role in the passing game? They’ll run Rome on more vertical stuff than they ever did HB.
Ok.
I'm going to have to agree with the kid on this one. Rome is a tall, fast deep threat. Why bulk him up to play a jumbo slot receiver? SR? Maybe. He's built differently than RO. Wider shoulders and a thicker frame. That said, Bryant was 239 as a true frosh. He had been at FSP for years and was almost a finished project at that point. He looked 40 as an 18 year old. Racanelli and Rome still look like kids. Add ten pounds of muscle and you get a couple matchup nightmares in your WR corps. Seems simple. With respect.

Agree with what point? That Rome is a WR? No shit. All I said, and it was only to point out that it was possible not likely, is that he's big enough to do it. They wont have to bulk him up because he's going to get that big on his own without some effort to keep his weight down.
Bryant's listed weights seemed to bounce from about 220 up to 230 or so until last year.
Marcell Reece is a good example of a big WR with speed who would have thrived as an H Back or dual threat TE if he had been used that way in college. He's had a successful NFL career doing just that, in spit of not being used as one at UW. Rome is way more talented.

What's being lost here is that this is a @SoyBoy thread, and I think @chuck was trying to more boldly assert that he would be better known as @whitebeast92 after a year or two in the pogrom.
That being said, I'm with @chuck 100% on these hot takes; Racanelli has the frame and physicality/penchant for contact to be a credible Hunter clone, and Rome's physical tools are all world, who knows how it plays out for him. I especially love the Marcel Reece reference, he doesn't get nearly enough love/appreciation for what a freak he was, and Rome's measurables are even more freakish.
Rome Odunze and Sawyer Racanelli won’t ever be FBs/TEs at this level or the next level. Please stop. The comp is embarrassing. Rome’s got a little Allen Robinson to his game. Sawyer needs to play on defense his ceiling is ridiculous on that side of the ball.

Can’t wait to see them wither away on the bench like most of our talented players last year

Sawyer RS fosho. Our WR room is mad talented. Not worried about that room. Season comes down to scheme and QB play.

We have the talent just comes down to scheme and play calling. We have the WRs to make our QBs look good. All Donovan needs to do is stretch zones with vertical + horizontal concepts and create 1 on 1s.

Don't be pissy. It's cool. You're cool. Let's just talk. As per the Gohuskies roster. Hunter Bryant 2017: 239 2018: 224 2019: 239
I'm assuming he lost weight in 2018 in an effort to alleviate some pressure on the knees that had failed him. In 2019 he gained the weight back to more resemble the TE he wanted to be. Rome isn't Bryant or Marcell Reese. Different bodies. Sawyer could pack that weight on easier if you really wanted to make him an H-back but he sure as shit isn't the athlete that Reese was. He's a plus athlete but Reese was a freak of nature.

Huh? Vertical + horizontal stretching create conflict defenders that you can attack. It essentially creates spaces and shifts zone defenses. Against Michigan they mostly play press man so our WRs are going to have to win. Football is not hard.

Reese was such a freak he got moved to fullback in the NFL! Sawyer’s probably a better athlete tbh.
