Brock might be the best player in the country, but is Ladd more important to this offense?

Rhetorical, of course. But, compared to the early season, as Ladd gets healthier - we seem to really be doing better. I think he's gotta be one of the most underrated WRs out there.

He is so fricking good man. His routes are next level and he looked fast AF yesterday.

He's gonna have a very long and prosperous NFL career if he can stay healthy.

Ladd imo is top tier up there with Brock how nobody saw the talent in that kid and how nobody went after him is baffling I am so glad we have him and I’m going to miss the hell out of him when he’s gone . I also believe he could be a too 15 pick in the draft book it

I love Ladd don’t get me wrong, but you smokin crack if you think he’s a top 15 pick. Or were you referring to Bowers?

I remember watching highlight/drill film on McConkey after UGA offered him. What I saw was a small kid with unfrickingbelievable separation ability. A real diamond in the rough. I saw the talent, but thought he would get killed in this league. I am so glad that the Tennessee staff didn't see what Kirby and staff saw in him.

Ladd McConkey's 135 receiving yards against Florida were the second most in the rivalry's history over the last 22 years.

The only other player to have more than him was Brock Bowers in 2022. He had 154 receiving yards against Florida.

I think it's Bobo and Beck using the tools they have to maximize the effectiveness of the pass game.

Bowers creates a massive match-up problem because he's so versatile. The offense becomes more about getting him the ball.

Without Bowers it's almost all about leaning on Beck to distribute, make the right decisions, and facilitate offensive success. He's required to do that now, but there isn't a safety valve to make it easier.
