The 2025 Draft Thread

Skattebo has elite tackle breaking ability and runs angrier than any man I've ever seen. He runs like the defender punched his mom and kicked his dog.

That being said I desperately need to see some good measurables outta him. NFL players are bigger, faster, and have better technique than college dudes. What happens when the worst guy you face is as good as the best Georgia/Texas/Bama players?

He does add some value in the receiving game, 605 receiving yards on 45 receptions, that's pretty darn good.

The big thing for me is the lack of speed means he's prolly a power back with receiving ability. So what is the delta between BRob and him? Like I do suspect there's an upgrade there but is it worth where we'd have to pick him.

Unless his measurables are better than I think, I probably wouldn't feel comfy until the 4th for him but we don't have a fourth and I suspect he will not be even remotely available in the 5th.

Potentially just a mis-match of our needs and his skillset.

Skattebo is also one heck of a passing weapon.

My son is at ASU and I’m in Chandler. Saw a lot of Skattebo.

I agree with you.

Dude is a football player - he’s tough, a load to tackle, good vision, good hands, sees holes and reads blocks. But he lacks speed. I bet he doesn’t get below a 4.6.

We need to add more speed to our offense.

I think Skattebo will be a good NFL role player. He will play teams, run short yardage, be a weapon around the goal line. Might even line up at FB. He will do whatever you want.

But I don’t see him being a starting back who pushes 1,000 yards and who gets chunk yardage.

I wouldn’t pick him in the first 3 rounds.
 
My base stance is Quan-Jeremy are a perfectly serviceable safety duo BUT BUT BUUUUUUUT if we were gonna pick a safety at 29 we could do a lot worse than this freak





Mind you he's probably not there at 29 after this performance but my goodness.
 


Keep an eye on him- he is a good receiver-

Jo'Quavious "Woody" Marks​

 


So that makes Woody Marks and Jordan James met with for RBs so far.

Saw him play alot this year because I am a Miami resident and U fan. Dude's a player no doubt.

I am not a college talent evaluator by any means. But he shows up frequently in games and can be clutch when we need it. I think he would be a great asset for the team and JD.
