SouthLincoln Husker Posted January 22, 2014 Share Posted January 22, 2014 Everyone forgets that Irons also plays CB. I think we'll take both if they want N. Irons looks more like a return specialist than a true WR, imo. He's fairly short compared to the corners we like to have. He could play there but I doubt we're really looking for that. Especially if we're supposedly full at CB. Agree with ADS that return specialist looks to be his strength, although you can do a little more with a shorter WR than a shorter CB. Agreed! I was just saying he is athletic enough to play more than one position. Quote Link to comment
HuskerFowler Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 247 is reporting we still have a 50/50 shot to land him. Visiting Mizzou this weekend. We're not out of it yet. Quote Link to comment
Huskball Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'm not so sure we'd even take him at this point with Irons committing. We have at max 2-3 spots left (provided there are no de-commits). We still have Bronson, Pittman, Brown, Frison and probably others. These seem to be higher areas of need than WR.

corncraze Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 We should take him. Can always move one of those other WRs to the defensive backfield. We need a taller possession WR now that Q is gone and Allen has a history of injuries. Quote Link to comment

We need a taller possession WR now that Q is gone and Allen has a history of injuries. So with only 2-3 spots left, which recruits would you take out then? I know we may not have a chance at all these 100%, but just for sake of discussion. Bronson, Pittman, Brown, Frison any others? Quote Link to comment

We need a taller possession WR now that Q is gone and Allen has a history of injuries. Tolbert is same height as Blair. Not saying we don't take him b/c of this, just saying we have a pretty tall receiver in this class already. Also, Tariq Allen might get past things this spring and summer and have a good season I hope. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment

I think we will take either Bronson or Pittman, but not both. Frison & Blair are both 50/50, so maybe one of them. Quote Link to comment

You are probably right as I seen that Clink was bad mouthing NE on his tweets with Brown. Quote Link to comment
