If you don't extend your arm fully it's not getting called, he did that perfectly on that play. All of our receivers need to be physical like that.Quote:

I love bear, but he isn't as fast as Treadwell.Quote:

He may not have the top end speed that Moncrief has, I'll give you that (perhaps I misspoke), but his shiftiness and "juke" is what stood out to me.Quote:

I'll say this, not having Moncrief's speed on the other side will make things much more difficult for him.
I just remember Moncrief going up and snatching the ball out of the air, with guys draped all over him.Quote:

The rest of the game we were in that limp dick zone and we got burnt to pieces.
I agree about them missing Moncrief, though. Regardless for why he'll be missed, those OM peeps who think their offense is just gonna keep rolling like it was are in for a rude awakening; you just don't replace a guy like that and keep on keepin' on.
Well, Ole Miss didn't necessarily use Moncrief correctly. But Treadwell averaged under 10 ypc last year; he wasn't making a lot of people miss or burning them.Quote:

Paidwell has more front end talent, but he will not improve at OM.(His stats might bc Moncrief is gone, but HE will not improve as a player imo). Meanwhile, Bear is more raw on the front end, but has the potential to be outstanding his final 2-3 years....especially with our development at MSU.
Treadwell will still get drafted really high bc he was a #1 Highschool WR.....but he will not show true progression until he gets to the NFL IMO. You can't spell "No Development" without "OM"
Yeah, Moncrief was able to catch in traffic and speedy and physical. I just think Treadwell has two of those three traits. Not saying he is slow but can move for a guy his size.Quote:

Yeah, that's true. The fact that Treadwell led the conference in receptions says a lot about that dynamic. They essentially said "FU" to their work-horse, just to show future recruits that they'll "feed them", lol. Unfortunately for Moncrief, he was still hungry after most games.....Quote:

That's probably at least part of the reason why Moncrief went ahead and left for the NFL.
I think Moncrief would dust Treadwell in a 100 meters race .
I'd be pissed if I were Treadwell that I came here with all the excitement and all they do is throw me 3 yd passes.
I never said he was elite. But bear doesn't run a 4.5 either. Treadwell is faster.Quote:

Neither have Moncreif speed both are 4.5 to 4.6 guys. Bear played one year of hs fb while paidwell played all through hs. Paidwell is not going to take over a game due his speed but he has good body control uses his frame well and has good ball skills.Quote:
