Yo Boba all you can give a kid 6' 0" 200 and run a 4.29 is 4%, I think he's chances of making the roster is a lil higher than 4%. I'd say around 40% depending on how well he does with the pads on and things start to get real. But I do believe this kid has a lot of potential, and with this coaching staff's penchant to play the best player his chances go up considerable.

dude, there's no comparison what so ever. sure porter has played against tougher competetion, but that doesn't stand for much of anything. young came in, as a freshman, started ever since, and has been stout all the way through. young has played some very tough competetion and has still been shut-down against them. more of a better cb than your potential hyped porter was against good competetion. face it, potential takes you no where, until you prove yourself and a productive good player in the nfl, the best players play and thats that. the guy is making plays on deep balls in camp, sort of like the old-devery henderson, but on defense. making defenses in the long, but when it comes to actually being a cb and stopping all routes, hes getting torched out there.

anyone can run a flat-out burner type speed going in a strait line. wr's dont always go in a strait line bro. he has held up well to slant, cut routes ar all! and the reports from camp say so. i'd give him the potential case, but as ina player, potential cant focus over pure productivity and skill
