The thing is...I agree with him! Beard and Geathers never really impressed me. I wonder what Roscoe Parrish's (WR #1) ratings at KR and PR will be.

both of them were rated really high coming out of HS. Geathers' problem is that in HS, he was more of a tailback. his conversion into college was harder for him and really could have used his freshman redshirt to work on being a receiver. he didn't have that redshirt because of grades. so he's basically learned as he went. you noticed last year that he seemed much more natural coming out of the backfield as a tailback. his body though is for receiver. too bad. maybe this season is his breakthrough. it's also his last lol so he has to make up for his career.

Beard is talented too and looks to be a prime target this year if his recovery from injury is good. he did some things last year and maybe, now out of the shadow of Andre Johnson, he'll blossom.


now all this is just prediction talk. and i think both could be picked in the draft after this season just based on athleticism alone. i mean Daryl Jones and Andre King were picked in past drafts... i mean c'mon. but what's funny is i think it's possible that Akieem Jolla and Ryan Moore, the youngsters could come out and be the premier wideouts. it's all about competition and who's better down in Coral Gables.

Yeah, I think Rix is rated a little too high. Especially when you compare his QB rating last year to some other ACC QBs.

For example:

Rix (FSU) Rating=88, 2002 QB rating=128.16
McBrien (Maryland) Rating=84, 2002 QB rating=141.28
Durant (North Carolina) Rating=81, 2002 rating=145.18

I guess his running ability may play a factor. I used to say that Rix was the worst FSU QB in the last 20 years, but I discovered an interesting fact. Rix's QB rating over the last two seasons at 145.56 is actually higher than Charlie Ward's QB rating during his two starting years (144.67). So maybe we're all being a little too critical of Rix. I must say, however, that the NCAA QB ratings don't factor in fumbles. While, Rix doesn't appear, according to statistics, as craptacular as I once thought he was, I still don't like him and I think he's rated a little too high. He shouldn't be rated higher than those other two QBs.

Now Greg Jones, on the other hand, I think that he's rated too low. I know that he had that ACL tear, but come on! This guy ran all over the vaunted Miami defense last year. When you also consider just how successful ACL surgery has become, I see no reason not to expect this guy to come back at full strength. He should be rated a 95, at least!

Did you even read the first post of this thread? Let me post it here for you.

I'm not answering requests as I do not have any form of the game. Got these from a friend who does some work in the game reviewing and game guide writing business so I cannot look up personal requests.

Every rating that you see in this thread is every rating that Crazy Stanley knows of. If you had read the first post, you would've seen that he isn't taking requests.

Beard is an 89? WTF, Roscoe should have a higher rating than Beard. All the other ratings look good. Jennings ovr should be higher. I also think that Winslow should be a 99. Winslow is gonna tear it up this year. I was going nuts when him and Sean Taylor mixed up this spring in practice. Taylor ripped his freakin helmet off. Those two were ready to fight.

I know they are both talented, and maybe it is a "playing in the shadows" type thing, but for whatever reason, neither one has made a great impression on me. Hopefully, they will break out this year, and if not, you're right, the youngins may be the big stars. Brock has to spread it around though, his only go to guy right now is Winslow.

[Programmed2Kill]

it might just be that Geathers and Beard aren't good enough. *shrugs* who knows? but we'll see this season. and Winslow being the only go to guy isn't necessarily a bad thing Dorsey had that in Shockey during the Ring No.5 season and it opened it up for Andre to do his thing. maybe it can happen this year as well.
