Who will have the better NFL career? Sammy, Nuk, or Tajh?


Sep 5, 2013, 3:29 PM

Who will have the better NFL career? Sammy, Nuk, or Tajh?

I say Sammy. Nuk is about to get off to a great start & I expect him to surpass a thousand yards in his rookie season but I think Sammy's got an edge in breakaway speed, strength, & a slight edge in heart. For all three I think it will come down to who gets hurt less & longevity. Tajh certainly has the potential to put up huge numbers at the next level as well in the right system.

Depends on the team they go to


Sep 5, 2013, 1:37 PM

Nuk went to a great location as Houston is a pretty good team that needed a No. 2 WR to line up beside Johnson. Both Sammy and Tajh have the talent to excel but it will depend on the team and organization they go to. If you put them on the Jets or Raiders then no matter how good they are they are going into a train wreck of a situation

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Dunno. CJ Spiller is doing pretty well so far with a team


Sep 5, 2013, 1:46 PM

that was for the most part almost without a QB. Who they had was pretty bad (Fitzgerald?). Of course for an RB, the defensive line probably counts more than the QB. But CJ had some decent receptions, too.

Nuk


Sep 5, 2013, 1:38 PM

THough I expect Sammy to have a good one as well.

I think Tajh can definitely do well, but Nuk is built for the NFL. Decent speed, good routes, and EXCELLENT hands.

totally agree


Sep 5, 2013, 1:45 PM

Receivers in the NFL have to have hands and be tougher than hell because that game is so much faster and harder hitting. NFL DB's hit a ton and you cannot get jammed at the line and be successful. You have to be able to get off of press coverage in the NFL otherwise you'll be ineffective. His hands, toughness, and physical skills will give him the best career, i think. Speed in the NFL is only a part of the equation. Ball skills and toughness is a huge part of the equation in the NFL.

I think the only edge Nuk has on Sammy is the ability to


Sep 5, 2013, 1:50 PM [ in reply to Nuk ]

go up high for the catch across the middle. Sammy has done it but Nuk does it better than anyone including Jerry Butler.

Nuk does have great hands but not as good as Sammy, imo. Sammy snatches the ball better than anyone I've ever seen.

Wow. Hard to say one's hands are better than the other


Sep 5, 2013, 1:52 PM

They both have reptilian hands to me. Like they have built in suction cups and could climb walls with them....

Sammy. Plus, he'll go higher in draft also. I think he goes


Sep 5, 2013, 1:46 PM

in top 15 this year.

he hopes to get some this time...

fingers crossed.

2024 orange level memberbadge-donor-05yr.jpg flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up


Sammy will be drafted highest


Sep 5, 2013, 2:00 PM

But Nuk will have a longer career. You can still excel in his role as he ages with his skillset. Will be tougher on Watkins as he loses his speed.

Interesting.


Sep 5, 2013, 2:29 PM

Do you say that because Sammy's been somewhat injured? & do you say Sammy is less skilled cuz of that muffed punt?

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I think he's saying aging won't affect Hopkins like


Sep 5, 2013, 6:17 PM

it will Sammy. He's saying it'll be harder on Sammy as he loses a step speed-wise with age, but Hopkins can maintain his skill-set as he gets older.

Actually not a bad point. Then again, Sammy could always learn to adjust his game, and learn to play more like Hopkins. It's hard to tell the future.

I personally think Watkins has just as much ability but has


Sep 5, 2013, 7:02 PM

the addition of elite speed. He has great body control, runs good routes, knows the game and even gives coaches suggestions on plays.

Re: I personally think Watkins has just as much ability but has


Sep 5, 2013, 8:34 PM

I honestly think that the only football player in the galaxy more explosive than Sammy Watkins is C.J. Spiller.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Tough question


Sep 5, 2013, 6:17 PM

Though I hope to see all of them enshrined in Canton one day, I would have to say Nuk, his soft hands and ability to get open scream Hall of Fame potential.

Re: Who will have the better NFL career? Sammy, Nuk, or Tajh?


Sep 5, 2013, 6:49 PM

Not sure why you say Sammy has an edge in heart.

If anything I think you have give the character/integrity/heart edge to Nuk at this point.

Nuk never once got in trouble at Clemson and was extremely clutch for us last year.

Plus considering he's already in the NFL and on a good team and in a great situation to play early, he definitely has the early edge over all 3.

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Spiller is already winning the hearts of Buffallo as did

Brian Dawkins in PA but I don't think there is a better story than B-Dawk's.
