Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Not quite sure they believe Ryan to be the future. Maybe I just really like Zach. I truly believe that he is very close to NFL ready and WILL be a starter in the next 3 years. I would love for the Saints to steal him in the 4th or 5th.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

I am just not down with any QB that has the name of Ryan, first or last... :bng:

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

+1. I would be pleased if we picked him. Beckham will probably go first though but I foresee Jarvis as the more complete WR.

Saying Jamarcus was better than other LSU QB's is a joke.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

He threw 52 td's bruh. Nobody else came remotely close. I'm not seeing the comedy.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

A lot of TD's is just like Drew with all of the QB records.....

How many Championships did those TD's and Records produce?

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Ah, so championships is how we're judging QB'S huh? Is that how you want to do it? Cool. Big Ben is better then Drew Brees then. We can leave it at that.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

I'm just making a point. How does 52 TD's prove JZR's one of the best QB's LSU has had?

No. Number of Championships doesn't mean your better. But what did JR produce at LSU? Hype jumped on him and that all.

Ask Drew or any athlete, what he/she would rather have; Championships or Records?

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Jamarcus Russell proved that by his play. 50+ td's is tremendous. None of the QB's above were considered to be 1st rounders, let alone #1 overall picks. Russell was by far better then all of them. Work ethic was his problem. Attitude. Character issues. Not his play.

And yeah, some people will trade stats for rings. But that doesn't change the real point. Randy Moss is the 2nd best receiver of all time with a ring or not. Marino is top 5 with a ring or not. Charles Barkley is one of the top 10 players in history ring or not.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Let me know when LSU erects a Jamarcus Russell Statue on campus. I'll meet you down there and eat roasted crow until you say stop.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

We were running a pass happy down the field attack when Jamarcus Russell was quarterback. Jimbo Fisher liked to throw the ball... a lot. Zach ran a pro style run heavy offense prior to Cameron and now, still runs a pro style smash mouth offense that's more balanced.

Apples and oranges. I wouldn't sit on those 52 touchdowns as my main shtick.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Yeah, but he could also throw a football 60 yards from his knees. So there's that...
:)

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

From his butt!

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Someone is going to fall to us. And then Wham......we've got the best WR in history.:wink:

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

I'm proud of the fact that I saw Jabustus Russell's NFL failure a mile away.

It was obvious to anyone who saw those floaty passes and certainly to anyone who heard him speak, or try to speak.

Sometimes, its not a crapshoot.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Beckham won't be here. If he is I will be shocked and it would be a no brainer to take him. I don't want Landry. I don't think he will make a big splash in the NFL.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

I do want Landry.
I think he would become a solid possession receiver. I dont think he would be likely to make the big splash plays but we need a could pair of hand to make the catches across the middle on third doens like Lance did.

Re: Lee, Beckham, Landry among WR options
 

Playing QB is not just TD's. You have to manage the game as well.
