86% - How likely Dabo's WRs are to play in the NFL


Oct 12, 2016, 3:53 PM

Here is the list of all WRs signed since Dabo took over (2009 class and on):
20 Total - Bryce McNeal, Nuk Hopkins, Joe Craig, Adam Humphries, Martavis Bryant, Charone Peake, Sammy Watkins, TJ Green, Demarre Kitt, Kyrin Priester, Mike Williams, Artavis Scott, Trevion Thompson, Shadell Bell, Deon Cain, Ray Ray McCloud, Cornell Powell, Diondre Overton, TJ Chase

Eliminating players dismissed (Joe Craig, Kyrin Priester), and the ones that left after one season (Demarre Kitt, Bryce McNeal), and the ones that are still playing college ball, that leaves 8 players.

If a player signs to play WR for Dabo and stays in the program, there is a 86% chance he'll play in the NFL (7 of 8), 83% if you exclude TJ Green who plays in the NFL, just not WR.

Even if you include all the guys not on the current roster, the percentage is still 55%.

So why would any WR not want to play for Clemson!

Wow that's a heck of a recruiting pitch if I have ever seen one! I am curious to know if that is the highest percentage ever of a 5 year run?

To all of the Top rated WR's out there, you are crazy not to take a look at Clemson, we may not want you for various reasons but if you are one of the lucky few that is a Clemson man.... you will be getting paid handsomely in 3/4 short years!

What about G-Hop? and didn't Seckinger also start out as a WR?

Who are the 7 of 8 if you eliminate McNeal, Craig, Kitt, and Priester? Looks like 6 of 6 to me (Nuk, Humphries, Bryant, Peake, Watkins, and Green @ safety)

Either way, your point is valid and Clemson has been WRU as of late!

I included Germone Hopper as the one that didn't pan out of the 8, since he was here more than one season. Seckinger was listed as a WR, but I think he switched to TE his first season, so didn't include.

The seven are:
Nuk, Sammy, Martavis, Humphries, Peake, Watkins, TJ Green (of course it's 6 of 7 if you exclude him)

Thank you. G-Hop and Brown weren't mentioned in the OP, which gave me the confuse.
