Agreed. Ohio State got away with one there.

Some GM won't let Harbor fall to day 3.

True. But that may create unreal expectations for him.

Ok by me if someone else wants to reach for Nyck Harbor.

Ohio St. finally opening up a bit of space.

Michigan aren't going to win unless they start throwing the ball.

They are but they lead by a TD that wasn't a TD.

 

[manxman2601]

Rightfully, Jeremiyah Smith gets all the attention but I think Malachi Toney might be the 2nd best WR in CFB. He's 18.

WVU hanging tough, keeping within 5 TDs of Texas Tech.

For all the crap i give Harbor, this looked really good. The route was simple. But he was smooth, in control and made the catch clean, in stride while tracking it well. But if i were to be negative, I would point it was against his body as much as with his hands. Still, when you watch Harbor play and see the clear HOF potential, it is understandable why teams and analyst might talk themselves into taking him with a high pick in the draft.

Maybe he is only worth a 6th or 7th. But why not get him for a 5th? But if other teams are thinking the same, would a 4th out of question? But what if some team is thinking of using a 4th? Considering his potential a 3rd can be argued (and so on). Someone is going to over draft him on draft night.

But knowing how short term GMs think and knowing he won't be ready early if he ever is... I think anyone thinking he will go in the first 2 rounds is fooling themselves. I just don't see a GM willing to spend a top 64 pick on a potential bust who will do practically nothing year 1.

Edit: And while i did mention a team talking themselves in to round 3... I don't think any GM values him as a day 2 player come draft night no matter how big his upside is. We have seen plenty of physical freaks not go on day 1 or 2 who were raw. I don't think Harbor will be any different in that regard.

Agree yhat was of the best catches I have seen Harbor make. He looked like a WR.

 

[manxman2601]

Arvell Reese has the pass rush upside, but I'm going to say it. Sonny Styles is the better pure linebacker.

Derrick Moore and Jaishawn Barham haven't got any pressure on Sayin today. Big win for Siereveld and the rest of the Ohio State OL.

Ohio State Offensive Line Dominates Michigan in Pass Protection, Run Game

Forty minutes time of possession. A 12-minute drive. Not just zero sacks, but zero pressures allowed. Ohio State's offensive line took Michigan's soul Saturday.

Yup. regular season is over. It's conference title games this weekend and then playoffs and bowl games beyond that.
