A WR prospect?

Just one from my list of 6 (WR thread), who happens to be articulate and outspoken: Gonzalez says players exploited

I like him as a player but his comments increase the chance, IMO, that he'll be a little hard to control later.

The exploitation is silly. There's the free education. There's the supporting of college sports that lose money. There's the opportunity for an education for kids who otherwise would have none - different from the money, we all know that a lot of college athletes wouldn't get into college even if they had the money due to poor grades. The scholarship (or athleicship as it should be called) opens up the world of education to those who otherwise wouldn't see it - some would call it priceless.

Any college athlete who doesn't like it can get a real job and enter the draft 3 years after high school if they don't want to be exploited.

I understand this might just be a thoughtful person expressing himself but it could also be a person who's going to cause trouble when he doesn't like the way something is done.

I didn't think an Ohio State player could even spell "exploited".. very strange.

Good post. I'm also curious if he passes the 'team player' test. Until we know more he's still one WR to consider.

For someone who initiated the WR thread -- this is the best you can do? Come on now -- dig down deep...:blahblah:

usually when the WR opposite of you draws more double coverage from defesnse, more so than you can, of course you're going to have better hands and be more reliable, you wont have 2 guys trying to swat down the ball that is thrown at you, and you'll be running faster than the WR opposite of you, if you're running cross/flat/slant routes, as opposed to deep routes

Meachem should be a mid #1 to early #2. This WR draft is strong - if Rice comes out . . . even stronger.

I'd love to draft another WR, whether it a late #1 or #3, whatever, we do need more talent there and they don't all develop as slowly as Jackson

im saying as a prospect..i can care less if they put 11 guys on Ginn

Gonzalez - better hands/route runner
Ginn - better speed/quickness/upside

I think he is a top WR prospect. I'd love to see him in a Pats uniform.
