Now someone will flip out that he doesn't have great stats because all he's asked to do at SC is play the deep middle, he's asked to not give up big plays and be the deep cover guy which he does a very good job at.

I live in Atlanta and it is my opinion based on what I've witnessed and it is shared by many in this town. I don't know what people in Athens believe.

What if I told you as someone who watches every SC game I think he's the 3rd best NFL player from that defense?

The DE cant think of his name the other one?

Not to mention he has 3 years of starting experience in a pro style defense and is very good in coverage. When you see that SC never gets beat deep, he's why alot of times he's asked to cover that by himself, the amount of field he's asked to cover is ridiculous yet he does it.

Hell Cushing might drop into the top of the 2nd, and anyone who watches SC knows how much Cushing tends to stand out amongst the other great players.

Im not against picking Mays if it means improvement on the defense, I think this team could really use a stud at safety because Im not sold on either Pollard or Page. but, if the Chiefs could trade down to like 11th or 12th and stockpile on picks and still manage to pick Mays, then that would put a smile on my face. Improvement in the secondary plus stockpiling draft picks is what this fan wouldn't mind.

It amazes me how you hold yourself up as an expert and judge all others to be dumbasses with your only authority is you watched some games and posted on Chiefs Planet.

All of your posting knowledge doesn't change the fact that Stafford doesn't move well in the pocket even though he seldom gets touched. His best throws are typically on the move. He has poor decission making ability so he typically locks onto a single receiver. He is a three year starter and has under performed even though he has one of the best receivers in the SEC in Massaquoi.

He may become a serviceable QB in the NFL, but he is far from ready. Under the coaching of Dick Curl Stafford will take years to be ready to assume leadership.

Here in Atlanta I have yet to find any UGA fan that is overly impressed with Stafford. When I ask local UGA fans if they think Stafford will make a good NFL QB the most common response he might make a good 2nd or 3rd string QB. These are knowledgeable fans who have good reason for their opinion. That is more credible than you who can watch TV and post on a BB.

My opinion on the UGA OL is based on how Stafford seldom gets touched when he drops back to pass. Those three Freshmen you speak of are doing a great job.
