Genuine Question - On Campus Development

Aside from David Andrews, is there a guy on here who was sub-optimal at UGA that has exceeded expectations in the NFL?

I don’t really see it.

Was Boss Andrews sub-optimal at UGA?
He was voted offensive mvp on the team in 2013.
Voted team mvp in 2014.
2nd team all conference 2014
Finalist for the rimington trophy 2014 (top 6 centers in the country).

There was nothing sub-optimal about Andrews at UGA. His draft stock came from his measurables (height, weight, build, speed, explosiveness, and bench).

You can go frick yourself if you didn’t think he was great at UGA

With all of that non development in the league, we sure do still seem to see a lot of guys hit another gear after us.

Development occurs over time. A 2017 lower 4* may well develop into a 3rd round draft choice by 2020, and all his cumulative playing experience gel into another gear in the NFL and makes all-pro by 2023.

David Andrews was not sub-optimal, he was a badass here. Not sure your point, Mr Beefdawg.

Your inner duche is really showing. I literally took extra effort to type everyone don’t freak out like 2 times in the post just for tools like you and you still can’t help yourself. Your just a confrontational arse person clearly so fricking step dude.

And I didn’t say anywhere Geno sucked so don’t put words in my mouth. I said he hit another gear. Which you can clearly agree with as the 4th round draft pick is an all decade team in the nfl. Yes those do not equate. Go frick yourself you bum

This might not be the right UGA board for you.

Aside from David Andrews...sub-optimal

---

Andrews played in over 50 games at UGA including 10 his freshman year and started every game his Jr and Sr seasons. He was a Remington finalist and offensive MVP his jr/sr years.

I mean, sure, optimally he would have started every game he was eligible and would have been x4 NCAA all american but I'm not sure sub optimal describes his career at UGA.

quote:

---

He wasn’t recognized nationally as “optimal”.

---

Except for when he was voted as a Remington finalist which is the best center in the nation.

Sorry, your definition of optimal is broken. In this day in age it's optimal to get two solid years out of a player. We got 4 out of Andrews. He was not sub-optimal

And to act like he was is absurd.

Yea, but you started with:

So a talking point dating all the way back to richt was we recruit well but development doesn’t really happen on campus

Then brought up a 3star guy that went from 41st DT in his High School class, to a 2 time allSEC team guy, that got drafted in the NFL, who played in the first game in NFL and by seasons end was a starter.

And yea, I was pretty sure Jordan Jenkins would still be in the NFL after 5 years. He was a great OLB that was always flying to the ball and getting TFLs. He was drafted in the 3rd round.

I’m not really sure what you are trying to get at here, but so far, all your examples are huge piles of shite and show that we have developed kids at UGA and put them in position to be great at the next level.

Anyway, you sound like you know nothing about football and prefer sex with men over women.
