Tommy Mellott Cam Miller

Dude, please. Nolan Smith is a defensive end (a DE!!!!) and he ran a 4.39 with a 41.5 vert.

While still elite, those numbers are far from outliers in today's nfl. Particularly at skill positions.
Tommy's 40 time, while not the "outlier", certainly puts him in the top quartile for nfl receivers. 41 inch vert, same. But... his instincts, intelligence, and competitiveness are outliers. His intangibles are off the charts.
 
I never understand why some of you blowhards on this site try to marginalize the NFL potential of FCS players just because they play for rival schools. You did it with Troy Anderson and it was at an all-time ignoramus level with Wentz. Anyone with any level of football acumen would be celebrating a kid like this at the FCS level instead of trying to tear them down out of petty jealousy.

If the Griz had a kid with these measurables get drafted the same dumbasses would have his poster over their bed, with a bottle of lotion and a sock drawer full of crusty tissues.

I, personally, would be driving to the store right now for my third tissue run of the morning.

By sheer nature of something being intangible isn't it off the charts because it can't be measured let alone charted? Asking for a friend...

The analytics dorks of the NFL definitely dont know what to do with it 😂

You and I both know that is the difference maker between making the squad, and not for 6th / 7th rounders.
 
Are you suggesting there are not 4 or 5 WRs on every nfl roster with skills equal to merlots? Cmon.

The chiefs alone have like 6 WRs in their room with 4.3 speed.
There are most definitely not dozens and dozens and dozens of players that are equal to what Tommy brings to a team. You have no idea who this kid is and what this kid is about. I don't understand your hatred towards Tommy and the weird nicknames you use.

Because I believe -- like most late-round picks -- that he'll be a marginal nfl player. Your milage may differ, which is why god invented eGRIZ, so we could have these kind of discussions. I don't care if he's from Butte or Mill Creek (for what it's worth I believe Riley will be a marginal player as well), a bub or a GRIZ. I just know how damn tough it is to succeed in the nfl, and how many absolutely amazing athletes there are. Merlot is great; there literally are 1,984 great players in the league, and every year another few hundred join them. Tough to stand out.

I'll never understand why someone who is posting on a board full of differing opinions takes the attitude that those shouldn't be posted. But I'm not the board police, so what do I know.

Nice weather today.

Okay.

Remove your bobcat hat for a moment and answer this: do you honestly believe that the alumni and fans of every drafted player in america isn't saying that about their guy? I mean, clearly both Wilson and Junior have the "it" factor; both bring amazing things to a team. Are you over on bcn talking about what absolute stars they're going to be in the nfl? Something makes me think not.

What is your hatred with Tommy? I know Tommy very well. I do not know Junior or Wilson the same way. Does not impact my fandom of the Griz one bit.

I am not over on that board and never have been. However, I have stated on here how much I think of Junior and the impact he will make with the 49ers. I think he could be similar to what Deebo did for them

For me, the biggest between Junior and Tommy Malort🤣 is that Junior has been a returner and a receiver since at least middle school. Where as Tommy has been a qb for forever. He may have great “NFL measurables”, but he will now be competing for time against guys who’ve been running routes, honing their separation skills and practicing toe drags since their Pop Warner days. If you subscribe to the 10,000 hours to become an expert theory, you’ll understand.

I doubt that there are a couple of different threads talking about how well bergen is going to workout for the 49ers over there that was started by a bobcat fan


I'm also fairly confident not a peep is being said or even a thought given
about how bergen is going to do with the 49ers on the bison football board.. they are more concerned how their own players are going to pan out.

Funny isn't it?..
