WR Dominic Walker [Auburn Commit]

How is our WR core "stacked" we have 3 sure bets in Enunwa, Bell and Turner. After that we don't really know as it is young and unproven or coming off major injury

You answered your own question. Most teams don't have 1 of those. Then if you throw in Taariq Allen, Jordan Westerkamp, and anybody who comes in as true freshmen. Yes, we are stacked at WR.

Plus, it never hurts to have some of your best athletes on defense. From what I remember, people were pretty damn satisfied when that was the case with Hagg, Prince, Fonzo, Asante, O'Hanlon, Suh, Crick, and Gomes all on the defense. It was definitely more pleasing than watching the defense that we rolled out this year.

With Taariq's situation, I would say that's pretty up in the air.

Westerkamp, on the other hand, is legit. He could've played this year.

Where is the depth though? We often times go 3 wide. That would be Enunwa, Bell and Turner. Behind them we don't know what we have

enunwa is gone next year and if bell keeps progressing like he did from year one to year 2 he could be gone as well keep moore at wr if thats his best position and actually develop the talent thats on that side of the ball but if moore is better on defense than move him but everything thats been said makes it seem like he's gonna be a beast at WR

I can see what you guys are saying. I guess if we don't land Willis, I really hope Moore gets moved to CB. That's a position where we have depth, but there are no stand-outs. That may change next year based on what we are hearing about J. Rose, but if Moore can become a starting CB and use his speed and agility to lock down some receivers, I'd prefer him on that side of the ball. Just a personal preference.

I think this is similar to the Braylon Heard situation. I believe Bo, or someone on staff, was cited as saying - Braylon is an all-conference RB but an All-american CB, and that's why they moved him (and then switched him to back, oddly enough - but anyways)

Could've been another source though - someone on this board, someone else affiliated with the program, or the internet. Don't recall.

I think Alonzo is in a similar situation. Could be a top notch WR or a very, very solid defensive back. We'll see.

Braylon was moved back to RB purely out of necessity after Rex got hurt. I still think he will end up on whatever side of the ball he's needed more.

Actually it was after Aaron Green left.

Aaron who? He was smart too leave, he may not have seen the field this year....

If you're implying Kenny Bell leaving early to the NFL, don't be ridiculous. He is a good player and all, I love the kid, but he is no where near an early round draft pick that would indicate a junior coming out for the draft.

Agreed. Kbell may end up being the best WR to come out of NEB....but he isn't a threat to leave for the draft early, and he doesn't seem to be the type of person to do that. He has a good head on his shoulders.

Are you saying that the only players that leave for the draft early are a certain "type" of person and don't have a "good head on [their] shoulders"?

I hope not, that's kind of ridiculous.

 

[C N Red]

I think hes just saying that KB is smart enough to know it wouldnt benefit him to come out early and that other juniors come out when they probably shouldnt.

Meant this. Sorry should have expanded.

how do you know that for sure he hasnt even played his junior year yet? i didnt say he would leave only that he might, if he puts up 1000+ receiving yard next year i dont think thats to ridiculous to think that it could happen and to get some depth at the position
