And because this entire conversation surrounding Williams is about how we know that he's good and that he can be used in a variety of ways and yet our staff spent all summer talking about how they don't have the big-bodied WR they need. Ross had almost double the receptions, yards and touchdowns that Williams did, by the way. With a true freshman throwing the ball. You specifically said that S. Williams wasn't being used properly. Which game was that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you get whiny when people don't do your research for you, but I'm afraid you'll need to go back and read the conversation if you actually want to understand what the rest of us have been talking about. That said, it seems like all 10 games where an All SEC talent caught less than 3 passes are fair game for examination. Especially when the guy ahead of him- WR2 who just got drafted and whose limited role Gus now wants to pigeonhole Williams into (oh, lookee there, I did go ahead and fill you in on what the adults have been discussing)- only had 35 catches. 11 less than Justyn Ross.

Possession receiver and a good rush end. Have to find the reciver that Joey can rely on when needed. There is a reason AU was looking to add two more WR's if they could from either JUCO or transfers. If Will Hastings is really back he could be that comfort receiver. I know that is a big if but with his quickness he always find a way to get open even when Stidham didn't throw to him.

Tiger 8,829 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 It's one thing to have a simple route tree, it's another thing to literally ask our WRs to only do 1 thing. Sammie just ran a fly on 90% of the passes. Ryan Davis only caught passes along the LOS. Nate Craig-Meyers, we included him in our first 2 drive script every now and then but after that he just goes out there to block. Ricardo Louis was basically a RB... We tie one hand behind our back by doing this in the name of going fast while actually refusing to go fast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, IMO, Sammie was kind of a one-trick pony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For sure the curls, some screens, and other routes. Sammie Watkins ran a bubble screen 44 times out of his 101 catches in 2013 and straight seam routes most of the rest of his 59 receptions. If Gus catches the heat for maximizing his player’s talents, others should too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not mike Williams was utilized inside and outside. Not Hunter Renfrow. Those guys were used in multiple ways. It’s a fools argument to try to say Clemson uses their WRs in one manner like Auburn does. Legitimately, every single WR who got drafted by Auburn complained about versatility. And now we have people saying he doesn’t know how to maximize arguably his best WR who can do both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAG 33,997 Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Sammy had elite speed. He is running screens, stops , slants, motioning and getting hand offs, a comeback route. These aren’t complicated routes but at least they bring a different look.That’s how you utilize and maximize someone talent. He isn’t just running a fade 9 times out of 10 with a screen sprinkled in. Realistically, Anthony should be used this way. Sammy got drafted in the top 5 because of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
