Hatter do you honestly think that KKlein is comparble to Jordy? Very Wes Welker of you to say that. Jordy weighed what 195 tops in college. Jordy was extremely athletic and able to fight off bump and run coverage corners. Are you suggesting the 6'4 240 KKlein will line out wide and be able to beat a corner? Because that's a very inaccurate statement. I just think you're better than that Hatter.
I was repeating a quote from the announcers who talked to our coaches.
1) Jordy was listed as 220 in college. He weighed around that at the NFL combine as well. Obviously you didn't get a good look at how he was put together if you say he was 195. You should be better than that, Lefty. And Kyle Klein is listed at 230 at the moment. It may be a weight they want him to keep and not get bigger. So forgive me if I find at least a 6'4 230 frame comparable to a 6'3 220 frame.
2) Do I think he's Jordy? No, I don't. I think he's like a bigger and less athletic version for beginners. But he is rumored to be one of our fastest players and as a senior in high school he had over 40 receptions for over 800 yards and 13 TDs. He obviously was a weapon in high school at that size. Does that mean he has the same skill sets as Jordy? Absolutely not...but I'm wondering why our coaches would even hint at throwing his name in the same sentence as Nelson. He has to be an impressive looking young athlete in practices for such comments.
So, no, I don't think he is Jordy as a wide receiver but as a flex TE it isn't out of the realm of possibility he could be a weapon....again, these were the words of our coaches, not mine. And I'll add that after watching his bro it may, just may be a precursor into thinking Kyle might be a helluva athlete. I mean there is something to genetics...ya know?
You should be better than that, Lefty.
