stop the cap ... bain vs. reese

BlueLightning said:
Honestly, I am so glad Bain chose football as his escape. If not dude would be a menace in these streets...so much fire, passion and propensity to do bodily harm.....

Now ask yourself, is that what you see when you see Reese........

What I love about him is the switch…he turns it on like Brian Dawkins, but seems like a regular, solid person as a person. Seeing him interview and then watching him, it’s a crazy (in a good way) contrast.

Did Parsons ever get shut down in a college game like Reese was against UM?

Here is what I don’t understand. If a guy gets whooped in college by college players, what makes NFL teams think he won’t get whooped in the NFL?

Do you remember Freeney getting completely stonewalled against us in 2001? McKinnie dominated him, but went to the league and had a hall of fame career. Reese had an outstanding year, he just got his *** busted against what I felt was the best line in the country. Individually I’m not super sold on him, but not just because of one disappearing act. I saw games where Myles Garret was invisible. Clowney had some stinkers too. ****, our guy Reuben wasn’t always impactful, although he was never blanked like Reese was in the Cotton Bowl. I’d take Bain over him 8 days a week, by the way. He reminds me of T. Suggs at ASU.
 
Ha man just had to check myself...

I thought it was fine, as in how I would do that drill (40 still decent athlete). Then I relised we talking elite 20yo athletes here.

The words stiff (pause) and straight line come to mind.
 
I don’t feel crazy saying bain is a better athlete than him. The flexibility, balance..just the controlled chaos but with elite technique and coordination. He’s way faster and jumps higher but athleticism is more than that to me

When I used to fancy myself as an amateur scout prior to every NFL Draft that was my #1 criteria to look for.
