I always thought these two were pretty equal in talent and heart.

NFL likes measurables. I THINK Spector's are better, NFLish

I don't follow the NFL much so I'm not sure but I think that the NFL expects Skalski to have sub-NFL-caliber measurables. Same thing happened with Boulware. Occasionally the NFL invites a (likely) poor-measurable superstar LB, like Manti Teo, but I don't think it's common.
Hopefully Skalski will drafted anyway and have a successful NFL career.

I think Spector is sort of like Spencer Shuey was. Shuey did I okay after a pretty humble start at Clemson.

I didn't expect either of them to get invited. Skalski was awesome for Clemson and will be one of those guys we miss, but like Boulware he's just not quite good enough (or fast enough, or big enough) for the NFL.
Surprised Spector got an invite...hope he can gain some momentum and earn a late-round pick.

Yep. He plays smart, but prolly too slow for NFL WRs & RBs.

Turner is so smart, prepared, and knowledgeable that he almost never busted. But he lacked athletically compared to guys like Mukuba, and that sometimes cost Clemson yards, receptions & points. By the end of this past season (pre-injury) it was questionable whether or not he was the best option at Clemson, let alone an option for an NFL team. Hope I'm wrong and he has a great NFL career.
He certainly had a brilliant collegiate career and we Clemson fans will remember him fondly.

You could tell when he went off the field the past couple of years.

Hate it for Skalski! He never even took 1 play off
Feb 10, 2022, 8:31 AM

Never played any other way than 110 mph in 1st gear and has the heart of a champion. He is Bouleware 2.0 and just like Bouleware won't get any love for his heart and tenacity from the "experts". Every team needs a Skalski on it, even if just on ST or practice squad.
