Sam Giguere is a phenomenal athlete, and i don't use that word lightly. he runs a 40 in the high 4.4s and has a vertical leap over 40 inches! i mean, my goodness!
secondly, the three black players mentioned in the above "report (Smith, Garcon, and Hall) are total turds.
Garcon played D-III football at Mount Union and wasn't even the best player on his team (that would be tailback Nate Kmic)... yet somehow, despite all the impressive White talent that team has produced over the years (includingfleet-footed cornerback Chris Kern) theonly decent black skill position guy who has played for the Purple Raiders is the onewho gets a shot in the NFL. and it's not like Garcon is a burner, either. weird, huh?
Roy Hall couldn't catch a butt cheek with either hand, even after three years of trying to figure it out with Peyton Manning throwing to him! he couldn't catch the ball at Ohio State, either, which continues to spark the question: why the hell was he even drafted?
Taj Smith is a mediocre talent from a losing program. he's not tall nor strong, not productivenor particularly fast. so what does he bring to the table, exactly?
i don't know much about McDermott other than he played at Holy Cross and was their best skill guy, so the jury is still out on him.
the player who i really likeamongst the young receivers wasn't even mentioned: John Matthews. Matthews has solid size at 6-0, 200-pounds, runs in the high 4.4s- low 4.5s, and has stamped his name all over the receiving record books at San Diego. hebroke allthe records as a junior, then re-broke them as a senior. this guy can play.
seriously, i wish i could write about these guys full time, because it's obvious that most of these so-called reporters have no desire to report facts.
