Slightly off topic but in regards to Hardman at the NFL level...

Is there a difference in pay generally for a WR v. a CB?

(For example, I know that Left Tackles generally make more than other OL)

Just wondering if that would impact his decision...

Edit: Also, from a standpoint of being relatively new here, I see we're getting close to 5K posts in this thread now, I posted once not knowing about the jinx...
We/someone should mark that spot at 4999 in case others don't know. And, yes, I'm superstitious when it comes to this recruiting/football business.

Dallas is in England so I guess it's free for whoever gets it.

I think his odds are better making it as a 5'11" corner than a 5'11" receiver. I'm not sure how much the difference in pay would be, but it probably depends on how good you are relative to your peers at the position.

For example, I would pay Julio Jones more than Patrick Peterson, but would also pay a slightly above average corner more than a slightly above average receiver.

ETA after seeing Barstools post: Looks like it's pretty much even

I think his height is just more prototypical for a CB. Not that there aren't successful 5'11 WRs...

I propose in that case that someone- whoever notices simply note that "Dallas is in England" and then simply post a pic of Larry Munson.

Hard to argue with those numbers. Thanks for looking that up...dead even.

Coming up to NSD and 5k post and Dallas gone someone needs to put some good juju into that post- just saying. Others may have better ideas...

Possibly Dallas will check in before then??

Maybe we can send a carrier pigeon? Perhaps some skywriting over London?

Well, this post should be #4993.

It looks like we still lead for Bryant after an interview with his coach. Said he still believes UGA to be the front runner, Bryant is just curious about what other programs have to offer. I think he stays home and plays for the good guys.

He's not 5'11". He may not even be 5'9".

Well he is listed at 5'11" on 247 and georgiadogs.com. I think that's a fair height to use when talking about him regardless of his actual height and what some guy on the internet thinks.

He's definitely taller than 5'9, I'm 6'1 and he's really not much shorter than me.

5000... sitting on tarmac in ATL. just touched down after an 8.5 hr flight
. They let us turn on phones & I thought I'd see if I was too late... Great that you can leave Heathrow at 10a.m. and be in ATL at 1:45
