Biguns Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Just want to wish my little nephew all the best, in his newest challenge. He has hands, a football mind, and the soul of a poet. He's played in the cold, and has the heart of a lion. Looking forward to wearing big blue, baby!!! http://search.espn.com/drew-wolitarsky/ Edited June 28, 2017 by Biguns Added background info on Drew.

M.O.A.B. Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 @Biguns Can we expect your nephew to sign and play for the Bombers this year ? Or is he still trying to land an NFL gig ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M.O.A.B. Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 (edited) Who’s the most effective receiver on third downs? Based on totals: Minnesota WR Drew Wolitarsky (10 third-down conversions) Good news and bad news for Wolitarsky. No B1G player was targeted more on third downs and, when Wolitarsky caught the ball, he wound up with a first down on 90.9 percent of the time. The bad news? He only caught 55 percent of the passes thrown his way. He has no drops, so it’s almost certainly the fault of an inaccurate quarterback. Only two Power 5 receivers have been targeted more on third downs. Nice... and we certainly have an accurate QB in Nichols. Edited June 28, 2017 by M.O.A.B.

Mike Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 You can tell just by watching that highlight video of his that he isn't playing with a strong QB. Not one pass in stride, a whole lot of ducks. Biguns, SPuDS, blue_gold_84 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 Yeah a lot of waiting for the ball and having to get it standing still. Liking this pick-up....traits of a dependable possession and yard stick moving National...with ability for a big play. Just what we need SPuDS, Biguns and The Classic 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just what we need I realize that the video clips were selective, but when I watched them, I saw only one instance where Wolitarsky ran over someone. A nasty attitude goes a long way in this league.

Booch Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 His role isn't to be a guy to run people over, it's to catch But his size and strength will allow him to box out defenders, make the tough grab and not go down at first contact...all pluses in my book to go along with his knack for moving the chains Mark F, SPuDS and Biguns 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
