Cane....

This is the kind of kid we need to land on a regular basis.

I'm not so sure I believe that, but if it's true, then he's without question a Safety.

I actually think the kid's best position is WR…Not that I don't like him at DB as well.

Why?

 

[skeeter]

Why?

Just hsp tape…Looks natural in and out of breaks…Smooth runner and quick feet for a big kid, after the catch. Which admittedly doesn't hurt on defense either.

Doesn't look just like a big gangly kid winning jump balls (although obviously he's winning plenty of those too)

Cool, didn't look natural catching passes in the videos I saw. I was just wondering.

If he’s a 6’4” safety with good hips then he's the next Kyle Hamilton.
NFL All-Pro in year 2

That's my exact comparison as well.

Bring cousin in. We need a copyright on that Pickett DNA like we have with the Chickillo DNA. That football gene is pervasive in this family.

The blue lights you see at the Vegas strip..this kid is an athlete

Isn't a gray chip higher value than a blue chip in poker?

Z-Hills is typically gator territory, but Slingblade Billy doesn’t know that.

Way faster, way smarter, better ball skills & a much more fluid mover.

Better prospect all-around.

You know more than me when it comes to projecting but I can't agree on Pickett having better ball skills. James could've been a high 4star WR. James was **** near centerfielder in high school. His year at Western was crazy. Lol

Cane....

We land this kid and Ewald and we're in business. We add Ben Hanks to that it's a changing of the guard. BTW has another high end corner on that roster.

DJ had 43rec 886yds & 12TD's at WR his Junior year.

JW never had those kinds of numbers on Offense. And he only had 4 INT's total in his college career.

12TDs?

I didn't know he was doing numbers like that.

We gotta land this kid.

The Pickett pipeline/legacy is freaky. Don't they have a '26 kid that's projected to be a high end OL?

Crazy bloodline. They come in all shapes and sizes. Elite.

Heard that more than once last year during the highschool season. Wild times.

Please tell us…..

 

[Hurricane23]

How does he compare to JW?

Better athlete, not as physical though
