Mikey 16,545 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 There are indications that Jovon may declare for the NFL. I think that's a huge mistake since he SHOULD be the focus of our offense next year. That's the only reason that I think that we would take Tyren. He is almost 22. Would be over 23 if he stayed one more year at the time of the draft. His RB value would be zilch at 23. He came in with Yeldon and Yeldon is already getting paid. It's hardly a mistake for a RUNNING BACK. So, he's got value at 22 and none at 23. He's proven little at 22 but COULD have a great year at 23. He's quite fortunate that you are not his agent.

It's hardly a mistake for a RUNNING BACK. CAP reported to camp at age 23. And CAP will be hoping for atleast four seasons on an active roster in the NFL just for retirement purposes. Did you read my other post? Overall, I have always believed that a player should take the money when they can anyways so it's not like I'm changing my views any at all.

Like an NFL agent would tell him that even though he has the skills of an NFL back, he needs to wait until he is 23 to join the NFL and get paid. It's like the NFL agent would have forgotten that the running backs have the smallest shelf life in the NFL and most don't last until 28. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen barber miss plenty of blocks, he's nothing special blocking, remember the Cole guy going over film showing how giving up a sack isn't always the o lineman's fault? They haven't been playing a guy who was head and shoulders better than the competition....of course they better say something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McLoofus 35,182 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Corey Grant turned out okay. Why not! Corey grant was not kicked out of bama. Yeah, for pot. Big freaking deal. Agreed. That means the only difference between him and most of the other guys is that he got caught We don't need any more RB's who can be caught. Need a few that no one can catch! Well played. Very well played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger 8,817 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I cant blame him for leaving early for the reason Cole said: arguably the best runner on the team and gets ignored for stretches/halves even when they actually want to work him into the game plan plus getting the NFL minimum riding the bench is better than doing the same (to an extent) for free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people are so infatuated with Barber and his three yards that if another RB chooses to go pro, he "is making a huge mistake."And you're right, even if he was riding the bench, that year would still count toward his NFL pension plan and he would still be making money which he can't right now. Look at Jovon though, he has NFL skills and he will be drafted somewhere this year if he goes pro. He has all the size and the ability to perform on the next level. To suggest he wouldn't be drafted is just foolish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey 16,545 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 So, when the AU coaches say, at a press conference, that Robinson has to come out in frequent situations because he can't block as well as Barber, you guys say the coaches are lying and you know more about his blocking ability than they do?

"Lashlee on Jovon: "Peyton is a better pass protector. He's more experienced and has done it more. That's why he was in certain times." http://www.aufamily....lashlee-speaks/ Ignore what the coaches say and instead let's personally attack a poster. That is bush league. I remember Cadillac not playing in the first few games because he was not able to pick up the different blitzes. You cannot get your QB killed.
