Jeremiah mock has our guys going 2 and 4. He has Greedy as the first DB at 20 (Pit), Byron next at 27 (Oak), Adderley? at 28 (SD) and Rapp at 29 (KC).NorwegianHusky said:
Byron will be the first DB taken. Take screenshots if you want to. The only thing he's got against him is that the NFL sees him as a mostly zone corner, but he's the best DB in the class and it's not even close.HillsboroDuck said:
They're not going 1-2. Byron has what, maybe a 40% shot of being the first? He's probably the favorite but you almost always have to take the field, it's not like he's seen as some can't miss, top 5 DB type. I think Rapp makes it into the first round but I don't think it's likely he makes it all the way to the #2 DB.Dennis_DeYoung said:
The only way we get him is if Sav'ell makes it his mission and somehow we can convince his mom that UW is going to be good for her kid.Meek said:Dennis_DeYoung said:Kelee is fucking good, but I think our chances with him are less than 20%.
Lake isn't Lambo - Kwat is Lambo. Or - to be fair to Kwat, Kwat is Solich, prolly - but you get my point.
Lake wants to be a HC and he should. I just don't want him to be a HC at USC or Oregon.
The reality is, USC makes a lot of sense for him...
I'm just hoping they cock up the hire and get Jeff Fisher or Jack Del Rio.
Being a HC is mostly about being a CEO. I don't have close enough knowledge to evaluate whether Jimmy is a good CEO or not. He's a fucking great position coach (though pretty much everyone looks like a great position coach under Pete) and he's a really good recruiter.
I'm not afraid of Cristobal's recruiting machine, though. Teams that recruit amazing are annoying because they can randomly whip your ass when they have a 'good game' (see us vs. USC 2016), but generally guys who are 'great recruiters' end up like Sark and Kiff did at USC... "you brought in all this talent, why are you getting beat by the 7th place team in the conference?!?!"
See - I don't JUST care about recruiting.
We aren't getting Kelee unless Sav'ell commits early and dedicates his life to recruiting him.
what an interesting and quick way to kill my morning boner
I really hope we see Byron and Taylor go 1-2 for DBs, it would definitely help.
If we need them going 1-2 to get Kelee, #HeGone.
Greedy can't play the run. Baker is an average athlete. Deionte Thompson is hurt and played like shit vs. Clemson. Abram is overrated AF. Ya-Sin and JJ Williams are good but they're not going that high.
The only guy I could see maybe go over Byron is Nasir Adderley, but he's a small-school player and a safety so that's a long shot.
I follow the draft and I'm rarely a homer about these types things and I'd still be fucking shocked if Byron isn't the first DB taken.

It’s been over for him forever.
His mom will never let him go to UW and kids aren’t smart enough to look past the VASTLY SUPERIOR branding of TX vs WA.
Our Hail Mary shot is that Smalls gets in the boat and recruits the shit out of him, but I’m not holding my breath. It’s a 1/20 shot IMO. -
I already rushed to tweet his mom about how great UW is.

- byron mutha fuckin murphy jr gets drafted (really high) in the 1st round. Rapp culture gets sneaks into the late 1st. Miller Time goes way ahead of his projected slot and everyone else too for that matter.
- murphy, rapp miller and hell even bbk and gaskin etc ... communicates with Kelee and his mom that results matter ... and it's not like UW is situated near the Cambodian border ...
- murphy tells kelee and more importantly his mom that it just takes 2-3 years and 1st round contract in on the table, that is our current best model branding over the likes of Texas and shit. We have to continue to push that narrative as it's already resonating with many croots.
- get Sa'vell all over this, FSP brothas ...
- finally, get the Jimmy Lake bbc action going on ....
then we'll have maybe a 2/20 chance, right ddy?! -
I missed this about his mom. Why won’t she allow him to go to UW and Lake?Dennis_DeYoung said:It’s been over for him forever.

Everything seems in our favor: Lake recruiting and DBU development, NFL $$$, winning culture, former Seattle kid, B Murph and Saguaro coach enamored with Lake/Pete/UW, and FSP pipeline and peers.

But it can be done.
What we need is Byron Murphy flashing dubs on the podium with Goodell.
We need Budda baker to sign a huge contract in the next few years now that Mathieu signed a huge one after leaving the Arizona cards. Then flash the sweet ride while he's back in Jimmy lake's office during the off season. Same with smfj.
That resonates more than some guy in a burnt orange golf shirt trying to sell Texas.... -
Budda's entering his third year so as a second rounder he's under his rookie deal through the 2020 season. He won't be signing a new deal before Kelee picks a school.animate said:

But they know what's up. It's just the selling.
Having budda in the league already as a second rounder ready to get the next contract should sell better than a promise to develop and a small bag/coffee cup right now.

Holland on his crystal ball:
Five-star cornerback Kelee Ringo made a surprise unofficial visit to Texas today. Ringo actually had no plans to visit Texas heading into the weekend. It wasn’t until after a conversation with offensive coordinator Tim Beck that sparked Ringo to catch a plane to Austin after competing in 7v7 in Los Angeles. Ringo wanted to keep the visit under wraps until he arrived on campus and got settled as he could be on the Forty Acres for an extended period of time.
I exchanged some messages with Ringo’s mother, Tralee Hale, who told me that Ringo actually doesn’t have a return flight — Ringo can fly around freely on standby since his mother works for an airline. He might stay in Austin for his entire spring break and catch practices throughout the week. Hale is supposed to be at Texas in the morning. She was trying to catch a flight tonight but was experiencing delays. This is a huge opportunity for Texas to make an impression on her.
Obviously, I have my Crystal Ball pick in for Texas. Ringo has visited UT more than any other program this offseason and loves what the Longhorns have to offer. He has a great connection with Beck and cornerbacks coach Jason Washington, and it’s no secret Texas has had plenty of success in Arizona. Oklahoma, Washington and Georgia are some other schools to watch, but this visit makes me feel even more confident in my pick. -
Shit, at this point I'm encouraged just to see us listed. It's been awhile since we've even been that.DoogCourics said:Holland on his crystal ball:

UW is a Toyota.
To kids like Savvy it’s achieved Lexus status, maybe...
But Texas isn’t a fucking Lexus, it’s a Ferrari.
If you want to consistently get these types of kids, you have to be seen as competitive with a Ferrari on some level.
Ringo may think we are a Lexus too, but mom wants to live at the Ferrari dealership and it’s not a tough pill for Kelee to swallow. -

Real question DDY, marketing is a big one to help our national perspective, winning more and the big ones will also help; anything else so our skill prospects see us as Ferrari’s?
I think Jr will help a lot with WR’s. But top tier out of state 5 🌟’s like Ferrari’s.
