My WVU pick for this year

[Squirrel]

So as you know I usually pick a WVU that I think will excel in the NFL and usually they fail.  But I will never give up hope that one will excel in NFL.  This year the easy pick would be Kevin White.  While I would love the Panthers to pick him he will be long gone in the first round before our pick.  My next player was going to be Karl Joseph but he decided to stay at WVU for his senior season. 

 

So I had to go to my third option which might sound bad but he is a player the Panthers could use and he will be available in the 2nd or 3rd round.

 

 

So without further delay I give you Mario Alford Wide Receiver and Kick returner extordinare. 

 

Important stats

 

5'9"

4.39 40 time.

 

65 rec 945 yards 11 tds

26 KR 743 yards 2 tds

Haven't seen much of WVU his year.  Will have to check him out.

[Squirrel]

Most likely a 3rd or 4th rounder but if he gets a invite to the combine he will move up.

Alford ran a 4.28 at pro day.

Tavon Austin was better and was bigger than this guy and struggles like hell in the NFL. No thanks to waterbug types.

 

See Dri Archer as another example.

I'm an WVU fan as well and I want Kevin White so bad. KB AND Kevin White?

 

Superb owl.

How much does he weigh?? I would say bust but it's hard to turn down a 5'9 WR after watching Steve Smith for 10+ years.

Would be a 4th or 5th rounder. We be st returner and could be groomed into a number 2 receiver.

Not bad. Needs to put on ten pounds but that can be done within a few months.

eeeeehhh, no thanks.  Guys that size that really succeed are one in a thousand.  With a late late round pick, sure why not.  Not in the middle though, in my opinion.

 

edit: I don't pay any attention to pro day 40s at ALL.  The only use for the 40 at the combine is to compare guys in even conditions to others.  I don't care if a guy ran a 4.43 or a 4.48 for any reason but to differentiate from another guy in the same class.  And even then, some are more game fast than shorts fast.  Have more strength to carry the pads better than the smaller track guys.

On film Alford looks really fast.  He looks faster than White in pads.   He is still a project I will give you that he would be play mostly special teams his first few years.  But once he learns better technics and gets more experience he should be a sold 2 wr.   4-5 round I would like to see him pick but he isn't a must have.

White looks good this year.  I'll give that place they call a college that much credit for producing an NFL talent but I wouldn't touch a WVU prospect with a 39 1/2 ft pole. 

 

Austin, Bailey, Sims, Clarke, Pacman, Geno, yuck. 

 

I'll give you Irvin though.

Oh I agree WVU track record for quality NFL players is terrible. Although Bailey is coming along in STL.
