    Agreed. He definitely looks thicker than 205 to me at 6'5.

    Speaking of baby giraffes have you seen Fallou Ndoye's highlight video?

    Thanks to you two for making my point. Go to 0:10.

    Next time pick a video when he doesn't get caught from behind.

    Same frame, same skill set, and his high school team was a winner. He played WR too either last year or the year before. Matt Jones is a good comparison too.

    Ever heard of an angle? And he scored from 75 yards out. Hardly "caught from behind".

    I hate comparing our players to our players, but there is no way, judging from that video, Fitzgerald is faster than Prescott.

    Goat's on a roll of saying ridiculous, obvious untruths today. Is it just today? Or am I just noticing it today? I think I usually agree with him.

    You do realize he scored a 75 yard touchdown, right? I am checking because I really am not sure if you realize that.

    Goat will go through a stretch of having good posts, and then as soon as you start to enjoy reading his thoughts, he goes full blown tard for a few weeks. We have entered a dark period.

    He's a long legged fella who runs like a much shorter Guy, short choppy strides. One thing this fall during State games he hasn't been shy about is criticizing the State team especially the offense.

    He's 6'5, and looks like he's not fast, but he sure outruns a lot of "slow" defensive backs.

    He could be a Aaron Hernandez type tightend, if he outgrows the QB position.

    He played receiver last year - led the region in yards. Most of those were YAC because they don't throw deep routes - at least from what I saw them do in the game against Glynn. The video obviously highlights the long throws....
