D'Anfernee McGriff: Do we have another Percy Harvin?

[t-gator]

Great video. So Auburn pulls away from this guy......not a good sign🙈

We have nothing that supports that. It's a message board rumor by some butthurt auburn fans.

I don't see a QB in the highlights..... I see a kid who is bigger, stronger and faster than the other kids and he runs the same play over and over.... That won't happen in the SEC.

I watched his 2013 and 2014 highlights and he seems slower in 2014.

I like him as a receiver and think he would be a great target on the outside, his YAC could be impressive.

I think some of you still have the stench of mustank on you. Every decent offensive weapon we grab you want to make into a running back or a wildcat qb.

For your next trick we will be lining up Will Grier at the nickel...

 

[Leroy Jenkins]

I am beyond making anyone the next anyone..let them be the first of themselves.

Screw that, we should make him be our next cornerback.

I see more of a Derrick Henry type player, with a little less power but much shiftier. If this guy plays RB, he will be a much more physical version of Matt Jones.

 

[ReelGatorDoc]

take a snap for God's sake before he's anointed

Kicker or Punter?



Still....I'm fine with trusting Mac that he'll use this monster appropriately somewhere on the field. Most likely offense. Heck, I could see us running a lot of 2 back sets to help with protection, but also to utilize Taylor/Lane/Scarlett/Cronkite/McGriff/Powell in a system of putting one in the flat for a pass and the other stays home for the run. Other than keeping Powell inside for the run (and possibly Lane going to the flat - can he catch?), the guys are interchangeable to mess with the defense and get mismatches on who goes out for coverage. Keeps the passing game as a threat, but a controlable and safe playcalling for the QB. It's not stretching the field vertically, and until we can get the QB-WR connection worked out that's not a great option for us, but once any of these guys catch the ball in the flat it's likely to be a good gain if it's one-on-one. Additionally, it will open up the inside running lanes for whichever beast they kept in the backfield.

I would be very hesitant to compare anyone to Percy Harvins (a nod to Nat Moore and Wes Chandler there), because Percy is/was the most explosive offensive player with the ball in his hands to EVER wear the O and B.

FIFY

 

[rogdochar]

You're all forgetting that Percy was too fast, so he often outran the coverage.

 

[stephenPE]

He looks more like the next Omarius Hines... you know, the guy that averaged 20 yards a touch so the coaches pulled him out immediately.

GODAMMMM that always pisssed me off. OH in a good passing offense would have been great. much like the RB that never got the touches he deserved......what was his name about 2-3 years ago.

Gillislee?

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Gillislee?

I fully expected him to get all the carries in 2011. I don't know what Fat Chuck saw that made him think feeding the Smurfs was going to be any different than the previous three years.

This is what I see

The next Percy Harvin? Why would you want another player that was so disruptive to team unity he was kicked off of the Super Bowl Championship team? You better pick another role model for upcoming freshmen.

So disruptive that he helped us win 2 National Championships ... and never lost to the voles.

 

[Swamp Donkey]

Well, Mizzu, "never losing to the Voles" isn't much of an accolade. After all, most Gator players can say that.
