Get Ready GatorNation!!!!!!!!!! pt.4 Wide Receivers / Tight Ends

 

                                                                            Im happy today the season is almost coming. Im here to talk to you about the wide receivers and tight ends. I seriously don't understand why Urban Meyer is so worried about the wide receiver core, this is the most talented and in-depht position in my opinion. I know last year it didn't look like we had  a lot of  talented wide receivers, because of an inaccurate quarterback, Tim Tebow. Think about it , how is a bunch wide receivers or tight ends  suppose to look good ( like the weapons on Arkansas) when your quarterback runs the ball 217 times? I'll answer that only like 1 and if lucky 2 wide receivers can look really good like last year Riley Cooper and Aaron Hernandez . Deonte Thompson is a deadily receiver and he only drop two passes last year, the lowest on the team, but some questioned his talent because Tim Tebow only threw him the ball 29 times; 24 was caught , 2 was dropped and 3 were horrible passes.

                                                                        

                                                                                    Now we have a quarterback with an extraordinary NFL arm that reminds me of a Drew Brees or a Aaron Rodgers that can throw it to anybody and everybody , matter who they are they'll catch it , that takes a lot of trust. Many of you probably never heard of Omarius Hines or #82 , this guy is big for his size he's 6'0 and 219 lbs that's bigger than all of our running backs that's insane  and he has very good hands. Don't be surprise if Omarius Hines and Deonte Thompson get the same amount of catches , because if you look at last year, Brantley love using this guy in the slot like Tebow does with Hernandez but not as much. Like  I said John Brantley look like a Aaron Rodgers or Drew Brees, because he doesn't throw it to one guy 60% to 75% of the time he likes to keep the defense guessing and make them vulnerable unlike Tim Tebow does. If you disagree lets review in 2007: Andre Caldwell ,2008: Percy Harvin , 2009: Aaron Hernandez,, that's not Brantley just look at the 2010 orange & blue spring game.

                                                                               I like the move of Chris Rainey he's quick and has good but not great speed and endurance, and he can catch. Let's face it he was never gonna make it as running back with Jeffrey Demps and  Emmanuel Moody that better than him on the depht chart. I predict at least 30 catches maybe more but remember he has injury problems. I like our freshmans we recruited , I liked Adrain Coxson the most until he transfer to Maryland because he wasn't cracking the depht chart. Now our recruiting class of wide receivers went from a B+ to a B- with Coxson gone, yes he was that good . I still like Solomon Patton and Robert Clark ,I'm not sold on Chris Dunkley yet .  I like Solomon because he has very good speed and he can run after the catch, I like Robert because he's a hard worker and he reminds me of  Wes Welker look because he short and he good at getting open. I'm not sure about Dunkley because when I looked at his tapes and highlights ,I didn't  really see him run any long routes plays and he's not that good at getting yards after catch so he needs to know how to go long to be able to play at Florida.      

                                                                             As for tight ends, I'm very impress of Jordan Reed athleticism and and speed and yards after catch. John Brantley will be looking for him alot especially in the slot with Hines. I'm still not convince that Gerald Christian is ready for college football , he might need a redshirt to get stronger and faster. Our offense  will be raw this year no doubt , we have too much talent at this position , if John Brantley have a bad year this year he is a fail and he can't make any excuses unless like the whole offensive line gets hurt or something. I'm serious, when you guys like Omarius Hines, Andre Debose , Chris Rainey , Frankie Hammond Jr. , Deonte Thompson, Jordon Reed and maybe Carl Moore as your wide receivers and tight ends with that running back core then you should have no excuses to not put up at least 21 or more points every game.

Debose!

Why Debose?

What has he done to give you the impression he should get the ball more than Deonte, Carl or Hines?

He hasn’t done anything as of yet. But neither has anyone else. Thus the reason why who JB is going to throw to this season is somewhat of an issue.

Deonte has hands made out of stone. Carl Moore hasn’t shown he can stay heathly. Hines…isn’t even the starter at TE.

Who is the starter at tight end?

And if it’s Jordan Reed, are we even really planning on using a tight-end much then?

Basically your saying that you believe Debose has talents that Gator Nation is aching for?
I believe Hines has those sure hands Deonte doesn’t, he may just not understand the offense as well as Moore or Thompson, but he’s a legit number 1 or 2 receiver in the future, possibly this year if Moore or Deonte don’t stay healthy.

He’s a proven reliable target for Johnny. I hope Debose is good, but I haven’t seen him do anything even against 2nd teamers in the SEC.

It is Reed. All I’m saying is that I think Debose will shine this year. Every single WR or TE has question marks.

According to mlm

Hines is the starting TE for Saturday.

Appears so.

I still like Debose. :) Whoever starts at TE isn’t going to change that.

Omaruis Hines! A proven reliable receiver with the body of a prized stallion.

That would work for me. I’d love it if the entire offensive unit had an outstanding year.
