[Go Canes!!]

Already off to a great start. He's going to have a monster season here.

If we had a 2 deep with Osborn's mindset and drive, we would be competing for a playoff spot this year. Regardless of the situation or scenario, whether it's on the playing field, in a relationship, or just partaking in a hobby, there is a very simple formula that I truly believe in full heartedly........

High Character
+Passion/Strong Work Ethic
=Success in Life

I wish we had KJ here from day 1 man. So reliable, a leader, works as hard as anybody and he'll be a big brother for many Canes for years to come

I’m very impressed with KJ. He really runs great routes and he knows how to position his body for block outs. He was well coached and has great mechanics. I can see 60 catches for him. Maybe 1000 yards. Clearly the best all around receiver on the team.

He's JW favorite receiver.

KJ looks like he’s always a centimeter from breaking the tackle... I’m sure he’ll break some.

Glad to have him!!

You guys think he sneaks into the first round? I have seen some mocks with him in the late 20’s

Not sure about first round but he’s gonna have a long career, wouldn’t shock me if he benches 225 more than any other receiver at the combine. I know the bench is a somewhat meaningless stat but still...

Meaningless, tell that to my last sixteen Bumble matches.

In all serious he feels like a 3rd round pick who will have a long career, I agree.

No. ... I am super happy we have KJ on the team. But we have a good receiving corp that is underperforming. JT, Hightower and Pope need to start earning more targets.

Our players are too busy tweetin'

He's JW favorite receiver.

Because he trusts him. And KJ made a point of getting to work with all the QBs in the off season. Jarren talked about it.

Good read

 

[SSCanes]

I think he keeps JT4 in check, too! Not bashing JT, I think it will help him

Osborn knows what it takes to be a great receiver.hopefully our young receivers learn from his work ethic.REG said it best the whole team needs to learn from him .we've all bashed Diaz for the way the season started but got to give him props for bringing in Osborn not only for his athletic ability but for his work ethic and to help mentor our young receivers.
