We don't want your average receiver bro, go to the auburn thread and convince your buddies of how great the kid is, because it's obvious no one in here believes you and you aren't changing any minds with but he runs a 4.48 and his coach said hes really good

He's not talking height or weight.

TT, I doubt Alabama was looking at him as a true TE. I think they see him more in the light of theBrent Calloway type of HB. Maybe not at Brent's level but a frame and skill set they could work with.

Well Pagan was 275 and Square just got to like 288 and hes a senior... so I think if we can get him around 275-285 and keeps his speed he would be a perfect Weakside DE...

Staff thinks Nkemdiche can and will play jack at 300, it would blow people away.

Well the way he talked he was scared that Upshaw dropped into the 2nd round because they did not know what he was going to play... So what is the latest with this?

Yea Pagan will get bigger. A couple of years ago he was a WR in high school so it will take some time.

Pagan is already fricking huge.

Nkemdiche is much taller and longer than Upshaw so he shouldnt worry too much about Upshaw.

His interview just made it sound like he wanted to play DE and not Jack... I think it would be smarter to pitch him both. That way the staff can decipher which position he needs and wants to play. Not just tell him Jack and that's it.

Its funny how people put things in these kids head. D. Ware, Aldon Smith. Those guys play basically the same thing as Upshaw. SMH.

I would love to hear the pitch some rival school was giving Nkemdiche about Upshaw's "draft status".
