BIGREDIOWAN Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 I'd compare Westy to Julian Edelman as far as attributes go. Julian has seemed to have a pretty good career so far. I'd love for him to end up on the Packers somehow. 1 Quote Link to comment
jsneb83 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I guess my Pats will have to take him. : )It pains me to say, but I think the Pats would be the ideal place for him Quote Link to comment
B.B. Hemingway Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Selfishly, I'd like to see the Vikings get a hold of Reilly. We could use the down field threat. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I am optimistic that Westy and Reilly will surprise some folks (not fans) and get drafted late or get picked up immediately as FA's. Quote Link to comment
whateveritis1224 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Selfishly, I'd like to see the Vikings get a hold of Reilly. We could use the down field threat. Think the downfield threat for the Vikings this year was more about Bradford not being a great down field thrower and the O-Line not giving him the time. But I would love to see Reilly in Minnesota.

Morrissey Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'd compare Westy to Julian Edelman as far as attributes go. Julian has seemed to have a pretty good career so far. I'd love for him to end up on the Packers somehow. Because they're both white? Westy doesn't thave the speed, quickness or the moves that Edelman has, that's a pretty terrible comparison. Amendola might be a decent comp, though. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Here's a thought. Is it possible that Westy and Rielly aren't being considered because of our QB play? I know that the NFL can "spot" talent, but it was probably hard when Westy was catching behind his back, getting laid out across the middle or Reilly diving for passes.... Probably is a knock on TA as a QB, but I wish I could find the stats for our guys for YAC (receiving) and YAC (after first contact). I am ASSuming it would be minimal. Also probably have a lower reception rate when trying to catch passes below them, behind them, in double/triple coverage etc...... Having watched NU for a while, Westy is one of the better guys I've seen. Reilly has the speed and size the NFL looks for. Might just be that "homer" NU fan, but both guys have potential at the next level IMO. Get a QB who can allow them to showcase their abilities at the Huskers pro day and we might see some changes in their draft "predictions/projections"...... Quote Link to comment
The Dude Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'll eat my hat if New England doesn't take one of these guys. Be it in the Draft or be it in UDFA. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'll eat my hat if New England doesn't take one of these guys. Be it in the Draft or be it in UDFA.The Pats, where stars are born or redemption offered. In this day and age, that's one of the top programs to go IMHO. Rookie or veteran.......

Nebfanatic Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'll eat my hat if New England doesn't take one of these guys. Be it in the Draft or be it in UDFA. likely you'll be eating your hat then. While I think these guys will get picked up and they could be a good fit in NE it's still a long shot to predict that one of these guys will end up on 1 of the 32 NFL teams Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'd compare Westy to Julian Edelman as far as attributes go. Julian has seemed to have a pretty good career so far. I'd love for him to end up on the Packers somehow. Because they're both white? Westy doesn't thave the speed, quickness or the moves that Edelman has, that's a pretty terrible comparison. Amendola might be a decent comp, though. Guess that's your opinion as it had nothing to do with race. Westerkamp Height: 6'0" Weight: 200 40 time: 4.5 seconds according to the link above. Vertical: 40" Edelman Height: 5'10" Weight: 200 40 times: 4.52 at the combine Vertical: 36 1/2" At first glance, you're wrong based on what you're saying. Clearly Westy has the same speed, the same size, the same UPS if not better, he has fantastic hands. Unfortunately we won't get to compare NFL combine numbers so it'll be interesting to see how things go with those numbers on down the line. Now if you want to say that Westy can't seem to get his hips engaged at times and seems stiff in that area then I might only agree with that assessment. And remember, we're comparing a soon to be rookie to a seasoned NFL veteran so of course he's not going to have some of the same development yet that Julian has.

swmohusker Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 A combine 4.52 is about .3 faster than a HS 4.5. 1 Quote Link to comment
Making Chimichangas Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I guess my Pats will have to take him. : ) I think New England would be a perfect fit for Westerkamp, provided he could hack Bill Belichick's coaching style. Quote Link to comment
MyBloodIsRed16 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 They will go to one of 3 teams. DETROIT, DENVER, TAMPA BAY Quote Link to comment
