AU64 10,122 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 And interesting to me that Tre was listed at 5'-81/2" on the details last night...he was usually listed at 5-10 when he first got to AU....so how did he grow shorter? You don't really believe NCAA press guides, do you? Listen to any college football broadcast for 15 minutes and they'll tell you if a guy is listed at 5'10" 220lb, he is probably closer to 5'8" 210. The numbers from the draft are real. Was just making a joke....but some people here keep referring to Tre as a "power back" in their comments on this site. No doubt he is compact and hits hard for his size but the NFL is a different game. and guys Tre's size better plan to run around the defenders and not through them like he was able to do in college. Glad he is going to the big time...and nice that he should get a chance to run behind Robinson again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiger 8,830 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Oh my goodness, the fanboyism and lack of logic on here can be overwhelming at times. Seems like there should be a category under each user's name indicating if they are blind homers or actually objective fans. I love Tre's game, he's one of my all time favorites, but these guys have been studied and broken down for months by professionals. Sure, it's not an exact science but some on here seem to think they know more than the every single one of the 32 GMs in the NFL. Johnny Manziel's Patriots scouting report leaked, its on deadspin, I totally recommend anyone to read it to see exactly how in depth they go. There might've been something come up there for Tre, in addition to his wrist, that NFL teams might've noted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoetTiger 1,899 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 ...Tre has the potential to be just as good as any guy drafted before him. He is going to an ideal situation with the Rams, good oline, does not have to be the guy right away, etc..Also this is an AU board, one should expect homerism - because fans want to see guys from their school excel....so don't be suprised when members here get behind Tre with passion, many here got to see him play weekly, maybe even saw him daily, personally I think he is at least the third best back in this draft....

Wareagletd 0 Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Jameis Winston will pay for crab legs before AJ McCarron gets drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJ17 0 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Well Kevin Norwood was taken by the Seahawks. They have a really good shot at repeating so he may get another ring in the near future. AJ is still waiting. I think skipping out on the senior bowl is hurting him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metafour 4,969 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 At this point it doesn't really matter if you are drafted or not. It is more beneficial to be able to pick the team you sign an UDFA deal with. He'll get several offers to choose from if he isn't drafted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gilstein21 1 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 absolutely. That guy was a great team player. 100% effort every down, and I imagine every practice, workout, and meeting. He was a great leader for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
around4ever 4,139 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 So Chris Davis isn't getting drafted He'll sign as a Free Agent with somebody. It will be hard to catch on but not impossible. Chris can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3rdgeneration 6,469 Posted May 10, 2014 Share Posted May 10, 2014 The best part about only having 4 players drafted is that it means we didn't lose many seniors!

metafour 4,969 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 several? Yes...it costs NFL teams next to nothing to pick up undrafted free-agents. A pretty well known player from a major school like Auburn will get to choose between several teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
