    Damn. Was hoping NCAA had granted him a waiver to play at UW next year.

    He was so good he could wait for the entire Cal student body to catch up to him as he was waiting for the pass to show up and still score

    It's almost a crime that Browning gets those passing statistics from 2016.
    Statistical appropriation IMO
    Imagine if skinny committed, then beat out Brownsox, that team would have been fun to watch

    Sure, waste a 9th pick on a kid that only catches 21 receptions. That is under 1.5 catches per game. Wtf are you talking about?

    I said the same thing about Shelton. You don’t waste a high first round pick for a 2 down DT in a passing league.

    Props to them for getting money, but both were picked at least one round too high.

    You were right about Shelton but I disagree about Ross. Injuries have been an issue but his combination of top end speed and separation off the line was first round worthy. He was an absolute monster as a senior and it wasn't because of his QB or the offensive scheme.

    I still think he has star potential.

    I am not talking about his potential, but let’s be objective. Has Ross done anything really meaningful in the last 2 season?
    I love the kid, and glad he got paid but he definitely not lived up to the 9th pick

    Right now he’s a bust. I agree with DNC that he has potential to be pretty good. He was definitely a dominant WR in college.

    Should have not declared early. That said, he’s not on the team. So who cares?

    9th overall pick says he made the right decision.

    7tds is pretty good production regardless of how few receptions. With a new attitude and working harder than ever this summer I won't be surprised to see him get 50+ catches next year.
    He’s dead to me.

    Once Browning separated his shoulder against OSU, it’d been Skinny for three years.

    Yep. Imagine if Ross had a qb with an arm. Bombs all day

    Wrong. Had he stayed we? would have won The fiesta bowl. So no. It wasn’t the “right decision”

    Would he have been the quarterback?
