JT can do more. Vita is limited by the positional priority of stopping the run in the NFL & I think if he was smaller and more versatile you’d have an argument. JT can play ILB, OLB, Wide 9, Stong 5, and 3 down to Zero. Vita is fuckin unreal just to be able to go 0-3 teq.StrongArmCobra said:
No he's not. He's playing LB and TE. Still very impressive and he's deserving of being ranked the #1 recruit in his class but saying his ceiling is way higher than Vita's is just recency bias because he's the next big thing. It's a fair comparison between the two but he's not more talented than Vita. He's very close. Just not quite as fast as Vita was at the same size.backthepack said:
Yeah he’s playing safety and WR in 7on7 lol.StrongArmCobra said:JT is close but he ain't out there running and moving like Vita was at the same size. Y'all need the check yourselves.

Are we really comparing the consensus #1 player in the country to a high ceiling 3*? I mean, I love Vita and he certainly reached his ceiling but he took a year off football and then spent a year working on touching his toes once he joined the team. No one was thinking, "that Vita Vea guy, he might be the best high school player in the country"

Versatility does not equate to being more talented or having a higher ceiling.LaMichael_Corleone said:

And JT cannot play ILB or OLB, get the fuck out of here. As a collegiate player, he'll be exclusively a D-lineman just like Vita. It's an apples to oranges comparison in terms of versatility because JT has not reached his growth potential yet. Nobody knows how big he will get but when he reaches that growth potential, his versatility will diminish. Will he grow to be as big as Vita? Probably not. Is he as freakishly fast as Vita was when he was 280? No.
Vita is not restricted to just being a run stuffer. One-on-one, he is unblockable as a pass rusher due to his overpowering strength and ridiculous get off for a man his size. As he develops his pass rush repertoire in the NFL, he will become a perennial All-Pro and if he stays healthy, a Hall of Famer.
JT is a phenomenal prospect. 1st round, top-10 talent and all that, but he's not quite as freakish as Vita was at the same age. But he's very close. Either way, he's awesome and should go to UW.

Another SAC delusional meltdown thread. Great. FML.

I stand with SAC #cobralivesmatter. It think it will be very hard to top the level vita reached his last year. He absolutely dominated the cal game. They had no answer for him.
