Hakeem Nicks

[Purple Punishment]

[quote name='Numatic' post='170155' date='Mar 18 2009, 06:39 PM']I dont like Hakeem Nicks. He came out of no where and I thought his combine sucked. (he dropped 3 balls in the gauntlet plus a slow 40). No one was talking about him before the combine now hes on everyones top 5 what is up with that.

I could be wrong he could be great but i dont know for now[/quote]


I suggested Nicks when he had over 200 yards and an awesome game in the Meineke Car Care Bowl against West Virginia. He didnt just appear, his ability is carrying him and 4.4? isnt that slow.

Just finished reading a PFT article about how Nicks gained 15 pounds due to not being able to work out while injured . They all but said he looks like a chubby TE. His draft stock is sure to drop.

I'm a larger fan of Britt than of Nicks, but I would be very happy with Nicks.

I'm a bigger fan because of Britt's intensity in interviews and game film. Even when he lays someone out in a block, Britt stands over the guy like he owned him. I like that #1 intensity, and I agree, as someone said, that Britt can take over a game without having a highlight.

By the by, to set the record straight, Hakeem is 6'1, maybe even a little under, and Kenny Britt is 6'2 7/8. Sure, small differences than what someone said, but people tend to raise both height and weight for some reason. Like, many have DHB at 6'3 210. That's insane. He's 6'1 5/8, all of that is official combine measurements.

Anyhoo, with Britt, Nicks and DHB all being in about the same height range, it's Britt who has the Boldin mass, the power forward and banger mass. I think Flacco and Da Britt would tear fields apart.
