Re: Never thought I'd see a better prospect than Calvin Johnson.
Lol no need to be an ass. Just seems that way from your video. Maybe he's just one of those guys who runs way faster than it looks like they're moving. Prolly does have a very powerful stride that gives him an edge with those long ass legs.
I couldn't give much of a shit about your numbers either other than he's capable of doing so in street clothes, which is still very badass. Football speed is very different and sometimes pure speed doesn't translate to a fulltime job as an NFL WR. Not every burner in the world can burn NFL secondaries but he does seem like a nasty football player.
Re: Never thought I'd see a better prospect than Calvin Johnson.
Very impressive for a high school WR. We'll have to wait and see what happens with him. With that kinda size this young he could end up getting placed at TE by the time he is NFL eligible.

his character issues made him a weaker prospect...looks like those views were right too...If Moss had the dedication and work ethic of Jerry Rice he would probably be the undisputed GOAT WR

Yes he was, but Megatron has the size over Moss.
Moss character issues may have had him slip in the draft. But his off the field problems didnt make him run a slow 40 time, decrease his vertical leap, makes his hands unreliable nor make his size smaller.
Re: Never thought I'd see a better prospect than Calvin Johnson.
Rivals had this kid as the #1 prospect in his class for some time. Kids usually move up and down but he held steady. Should be a beast. Broke all kinds of HS receiving records.
Re: Never thought I'd see a better prospect than Calvin Johnson.
He was supposed to be coming to Arkansas, too. Obviously there's no way to know this with 100% certainty, but all the way up until the night before NSD Arkansas coaches had been told and thought he would announce he was coming to Arkansas the morning of NSD. They get up the next morning, tune into ESPNU, and see him put on the Mizzou cap and they have no idea what happened. Apparently he changed his mind sometime that morning or late the night before. At the time it looked like a stupid decision because Mizou is, well, Mizzou, and we had Petrino and his offense would'e been perfect for DGB.
Anyway, I've hard and read all the same things Carbine is saying so he's not far off base. I'm awful at judging football prospects, though, so I rely don't know how he compares to Calvin Johnson. But, those of you saying Carbine is wrong or stupid, he's not the only making this comparison; far from it actually.
