Omier - All Pro Tight End

[JayKray]

Am I the only one who watches Norchad Omier on the basketball court and can’t believe this freak isnt playing Tight End in football!?

This guy is 6’7 250lbs (same as Jimmy Graham), his hands are made of gorilla glue, jumps out the gym, great speed/athleticism, aggressive as can be. Not only could you throw him a jump ball, but can you imagine him as an inline blocker!

Other than him potentially not knowing what American Football is, what am i missing?

Football is this kids future ($$) and Mario should be all over it.

 

[canecrazy23]

I have to agree.

 

[Caned Peach]

He should at least join some offseason workouts, if it's permitted. What a great story this kid is.

 

[rccollins]

Possibly,, but with the small ball movement the NBA has taken- he very well might have an NBA future- which money wise crushes NFL

 

[Bird4um]

Said this long time ago.

 

[CANEMC]

I like this idea. Already a better blocker than Will.

 

[407cane]

he keeps playign like this and he'll make plenty of money playing basketball

 

[Yoyo423]

I'm always in shock with some of his rebounds. Like the ball just gets sucked into his hands when it looks like he's nowhere near in position to get the rebound.

 

[AtlAtty]

From what we know of Omier, he can play baseball as well. Use him for every sport. He will our version of Jim Thorpe.
Shot put?

If he's gonna do that he needs to put in an offseason of work with his dribbling and shooting cause he has a ways to go in these areas for the nba. Hopefully he gets there cause he's a great kid to watch.

Absolutely!

He's not an NBA player unless he improves his shooting a lot. Everyone has to be able to shoot from the perimeter these days.

Of course he needs to continue to get better. He is a soph, he will. Miami heat have been trotting out 6 foot 5 Caleb Martin as our PF. He is very skilled offensively, though. .But Heyward Highsmith has been a good young player for us, and he maybe 6 6- Highsmith plays PF, but lately has been only getting minutes as back up center. And offensieve skill wise- Omier is not that much different right now.

Path to the NFL is probably easier and more realistic than the NBA.

 

[skyman]

Yea its been mentioned on bball board thru season.. He could be at TE, DE, or Tackle even honestly.. He has elite size in football context and he plays with the aggressiveness that is needed on court

 

[grover]

I think he’s NBA all the way. Needs some work to get there but under Larranaga he will. … but yes he’d make a phenomenal TE too.

 

[One9]

Darnell Washington with a better vertical jump?

 

[The U is back to work]

He’s like Rodman out there on the boards. Just max effort
