OILERMAN Posted May 11, 2025 Report Share Posted May 11, 2025 It's amazing that Restrepo was able to accumulate more stats in college vs Moss, Wayne, Irvin and Andre Johnson considering he played 1-2 more seasons than any of them! japan, and Justafan 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireInTheHole Posted May 11, 2025 Report Share Posted May 11, 2025 Honestly, I’m hoping he makes the team purely based on how upset it’ll make the resident assholes. titanruss, Pragidealist, and Supernope 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact is he wasn't drafted and has extremely limited upside because of his athleticism. He's certainly not the underwear Olympian that teams typically fawn over.

And not captured by those scores: Braxton and X's intelligence. Both graduated with nearly 4.0 GPAs and that classroom intelligence and work ethic translates directly to outperforming their combine "measurables" NashvilleNinja, and titanruss 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starkiller Posted May 11, 2025 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2025 Plenty of elite athletes fail as WRs because they don’t have good WR skills (route running, hands, etc). Restrepo seems to have those skills in spades, plus good quickness and bulk (for a slot). He just doesn’t have speed. That’s going to cap his ceiling, but a guy like him can clearly succeed in the NFL. If all he ever is is a possession slot WR who gets open underneath and can go over the middle and take a hit then sign me up.

Even the so-called lack of speed is debatable, assuming the hamstring issue he said he was dealing with was real. If he actually runs in the 4.5-4.6 range on healthy gams then we may have committed highway robbery getting him undrafted. You even had Callahan saying that's not what he thought he would have run. On tape he's routinely getting open, getting down field, and just overall being a playmaker. I also think the covid extra year of eligibility probably helped push him down with the extra players. In any other year he probably goes in at least the 6th or 7th even with the 4.8 40. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OILERMAN Posted May 11, 2025 Report Share Posted May 11, 2025 Your discounting Welker is super hard working, super smart, very likeable, easy to coach, disciplined Restrepo, from first look he's none of those, plus non athletic!

The funny thing is all the great Miami WRs had 40+ catches and 600-80 yards as their best season. Only AJ cracked 1k one time out of Moss, Irvin, Wayne and Johnson.

Was a bit shocked how little actual production they all had. OILERMAN, and Pragidealist 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
