Yeah Harline was a great CFB TE, not so much in the NFL.

shamc

10/4/22 2:39pm

If Harline didn't get injured in preseason, I think he would have done fine in

10/4/22 2:43pm

There's a little truth to this, yet his combine #s tell another story. I don't

shamc

Harline couldn’t block… coats could.. a non blocking tight end is a slow WR

He ran like a 4.8 too and had an F draft grade.

shamc

Plus he is going to Utah. Grass definitely isn't greener there.

crack

10/4/22 2:42pm

Well, it is Greener in whatever area is their version of the western concourse..

Meh, Erickson looks like he has potential to be a beast. Let him go.

Trust me, Ethan will have many here asking "Dallin Who?"

Who?

He probably won't have Cam Rising though.

WJCougar

10/4/22 2:47pm

Rising is barely 22. He shouldn't go the NFL unless he is a second day pick.

shamc

10/4/22 2:57pm

You’re right, he probably won’t

Is leaving early to be a last day pick a good idea for a 22 yo QB?

shamc

10/4/22 4:25pm

Depends, maybe his stock improves before then?

RockyBalboa

10/4/22 4:27pm

After the season? Yeah if I'm rising I'm not leaving unless I am projected 2-4

shamc

10/4/22 4:33pm

Agreed. The ‘23 QB draft class is deep.

RockyBalboa

10/4/22 5:52pm

The cautionary tale is nfl scouts don't care one iota about TE targets. They

rcbyufan

10/4/22 2:48pm

Gonna get lured in by someone promising targets and then on day one they’ll say “you’d better learn to block”

Pitta said Holker was NFL material

(Private)

10/4/22 3:00pm

Yeah that segment was wierd. Maybe he is. That said there are dozens of athletic

shamc

10/4/22 3:02pm

Have you watched that bowers guy?

Boring

10/4/22 4:37pm

Yeah that TD run was crazy... Good luck to Dallin, he's gonna need it.

shamc

10/4/22 4:40pm

Another thought on this: Holker would have a better chance at being noticed at Jaren Hall’s pro day than Cam Rising’s.

(Private)

10/4/22 3:01pm

Yet his decision seems to be declaring for 2025 draft--neither of the QBs will

shamc

10/4/22 3:05pm

Wont he have to share time with Kuithe next year?

Jericho

10/4/22 3:11pm

TEs aren’t used as much in the passing game as they used to be

I'mBatman

10/4/22 3:12pm

I would go to Notre Dame and replace the hole left by Michael Mayer

2FarGone

10/4/22 3:14pm

You don't just decide to go to Notre Dame. They probably have multiple 4/5* TEs lined up to take Mayer's place.

SingleStrapBackpack

10/4/22 3:36pm

Then he can ride the pine — I am good with that, too

2FarGone

10/4/22 3:37pm

He's not that kind of TE.

kccougar

10/4/22 3:57pm

Why not to the Bucs, look at the hole Gronk left?

The grass is browner up there. 💩

Holker isn't going to do worse

shakarocks

10/4/22 6:32pm

Is there an offensive set where you have the WRs in tight to block and the TEs

shakarocks

10/4/22 6:47pm

You missed my point

RockyBalboa

10/4/22 6:57pm

BYU did not have a good and deep WR core against Oregon

shakarocks

10/4/22 8:39pm

That’s fine we can agree to disagree

RockyBalboa

10/5/22 6:59am

Two biggest receiving threats? That’s hilarious

BYU '80

10/5/22 8:24am

But Utah must have told him they would…no way he leaves byu without talking to

ColonelMustard

10/4/22 7:11pm

I get guys transferring, but I will never, ever respect a BYU player who

Resurgens

10/4/22 7:23pm

I’m sure he’s devastated to have lost your respect.

canofpicante

10/4/22 8:16pm

The collective respect of the fanbase.

shamc

10/4/22 8:18pm

Loses our respect, gains another fanbase’s respect. Nacua bros suffering at BYU?

canofpicante

10/4/22 8:40pm

Best of luck to Holker. Too much schadenfreude. He’s a kid. It’s a game.

canofpicante

10/4/22 8:15pm

That’s because Kuithe is really a WR. He is an hback on draft boards

BYU '80

10/4/22 9:21pm

Yep. He’s a tweener in the eyes of NFL scouts

RockyBalboa

10/5/22 7:00am

There is no way that Holker is going to Utah. No chance at all.

Devin Kaufusi is that you
