      A 1st or early round pick is generally gurnteeed a roster spot
      And has more leeway in terms of development
      Getting drafted is an amazing milestone and should be celebrated but Getting drafted higher does have benfits even beyond on $

    Die hard Miami fan, James legit has all the talent in the world and I would solely put his stunted growth on the coaching staff. Also though the kid 100% should have come back to school.
    Leonard Taylor was another guy on the same teams with James that was a highly coveted 5* recruit and and Taylor absolutely had a few WOW moments. He is super talented, he had a very very poor combine and ended going UNDRAFTED while he also had a year of eligibility left. There were plenty of preseason mocks that had James and Taylor both going top 40. Kam kinchens too, 3rd rd pick and definitely has the stats and had the 1st rd projections and still fell to end of the third

      @tlobrill1 4 месяца назад +2

      False IMO. I made my own comment in length on the channel as well. In summary James himself insisted he play safety and did not want to move to linebacker. On top of that Mario had no one better on the roster to play safety. As a die hard fan, you should know in 22 and 23 there was no one better than him. James issue was for all his talent, he wasn’t very fast, he needed to rely on instinct to make up for speed. Leanord Taylor was infamously lazy. Much talk amongst fans and insiders he did not put in the work and seemed to care more about streaming video games than playing football. Kam did everything he could on the field. Ultimately his size and speed shied teams away he’s 5 10/11 205 and ran a 4.6. If he was 6 2 215-220 and ran a 4.4 he’d been a top 10 pick with what he put on tape.

  • @tlobrill1
    @tlobrill1 4 месяца назад +5

    I like this channel however you are misinformed. Steeles quote was to put an end to the speculation as to where he would play. The coaches didnt screw over Williams, he very much insisted he play safety. James quote is him admitting he would eventually be playing linebacker as that is what all the coaches were telling him.
    He was able to dictate where he played in part because of the transition of coaches. The roster was in horrible shape when Mario got there particularly at safety. They couldn’t move him full time Lb because they had no one better to play safety. Mario’s philosophy is build from the inside out, which is evident in his recruiting and portal pulls up to this point. James also likely had some leeway because he bought in and as stated American Heritage is a major HS program. Mario has already taken multiple kids from there including some of the OSU flips.
    Lastly, he wasn’t very good in 22. He played almost the whole season with a hurt shoulder that required surgery. This made it difficult to wrap up so he tried “hit stick” type tackles with his good shoulder. He gave up massive big plays as a result. His best season was 23. With a healthy shoulder and Guidry tutelage he made tackles all over, single handedly saving the game with a one on one open field tackle against Shipley in OT, had he missed, ship walks into the endzone.
