That's JoeT's shark pool shtick your stealing.I can't make an observation and wait for other opinions before giving my own?What the hell is wrong with everybody, I said a top 5 player is going to be a bust...and all of a sudden I'm pissing in the shark pool??![]()
This is precisely the garbage that I hoped that I would not be seeing anymore after moving from a different board. It'd be one thing if there was some analysis to backup a statement that every expert disagrees with, but this is clearly just trolling.

Good day gents.
How did the Conference of Champions hold up in the Rose Bowl?Hawk didn't go to a small school like Marshall he went to OHIO ST. He played against top level talent and no one could keep him away from the football. He has elite measurables and I don't think stop watches care if your black or white.Tell me this. If Hawk was a black LB from Marshall would be he be getting picked in the top 5?
I might need to make this a poll.This just in...the Big 10 sucks.
See above post.Additonally, I think Katz is a good comparison because I think he was hyped for many of the same reasons Hawk is getting hyped...Hawk is the great white hype from "The Ohio State University"(which hasn't done **** in quite some time now)please list even a single reason why you think that.also, why do you think Katzenmoyer is a better comparison for Hawk than someone like Chris Spielman?I can't start a Hawk is overrated thread now??
I'm not buying the hype. I'm basing my decision on what I've seen from Hawk against non-Big 10 teams, in other words teams like Texas that actually have an elment of NFL caliber speed.
The Big10 doesn't have that element of NFL speed that the SEC/Pac10/Big12 do.
Yeah, I would run away too after making such ridiculous claims. First of all, as already pointed out, OSU was the national champion in 2002 and beat a Miami team that some people thought was one of the best teams ever.And let us look at the his stats from OSUs two big non-conference games:I can't make an observation and wait for other opinions before giving my own?What the hell is wrong with everybody?

Good day gents.
since I'm willing to give LHUCKS the benefit of the doubt here, maybe he'll be kind enough to answer a few questions for us:
#1 Where do you think AJ Hawk should be drafted?
#2 What are some of the main reasons you think he'll fail to live up to expectations?
#3 Which linebacker(s) in this draft are better than him?
Thanks very much in advance. Look forward to reading your objective, well thought out, and informed responses.
Katz was dumber than a box of rocks.See any of their test scores directed at general IQ.
One of the draft magazines had an article on this very topic. I cannot recall which one. They did some digging, as stat and draftniks are prone to do from time to time, and found some interesting dynamics between a LB; his overall intelligence and sustained success at the NFL level.
Katzenmoyer could not count to 21 if he was naked.
Well..yes. What about him don't you like, other than he's white?Tell me this. If Hawk was a black LB from Marshall would be he be getting picked in the top 5?
I might need to make this a poll.
He didn't play in the Pac-10Well..yes. What about him don't you like, other than he's white?Tell me this. If Hawk was a black LB from Marshall would be he be getting picked in the top 5?

Good day gents.
Texas:
7 solo tackles (3 for losses), 5 assisted tackles, 2 sacks against Young, a forced fumble and an INT.
OSUs defense played horribly in that game and Youbote was really bad, but Hawk was absolutely outstanding. He had Vince Young contained single-handedly for almost the entire game.
Notre Dame:
9 solo tackles (3 for losses), 3 assisted, 2 sacks.
So please, just admit that you were trolling and run along home with your tail between your legs.
It wasn't meant to be schtick. I'm sincerely disappointed in the response I got here today. From now on I'll just pimp players so that I may attain my eternal goal of messageboard popularity.That's JoeT's shark pool shtick your stealing.I can't make an observation and wait for other opinions before giving my own?What the hell is wrong with everybody, I said a top 5 player is going to be a bust...and all of a sudden I'm pissing in the shark pool??![]()

Brilliant!Hawk didn't go to a small school like Marshall he went to OHIO ST. He played against top level talent and no one could keep him away from the football. He has elite measurables and I don't think stop watches care if your black or white.Tell me this. If Hawk was a black LB from Marshall would be he be getting picked in the top 5?

Giving reasons other than he sucks because he's white and he sucks because the the Big 10 sucks might help your "argument"It's a shame that every time I criticize a player on this board I get a mob of persons who have some vested interest in the player that come at me with negative, defensive tones.
I thought he contained Young vey well in that game, with 76 yards on 20 carries. Of course the 12 total tackles (3 for loss), interception, 2 sacks, the forced fumble and fumble recovery he had in that game were pretty good too. As for the Notre Dame game, besides having a hot girlfriend, Hawk was named the defensive MVP of the game and had two sacks.For my money he looked very average in those games which is partially why I think he should go in the late first/early second.I don't view him as the impact player that everybody else seems to.I guess you missed the Texas game and the Notre Dame game as well. Hawk lived up to the bill in those game from what I can remember. He stuffs the run, moves sideline to sideline and blitz well. Look, I hate the Buckeyes, but you gotta give the guy his props as he's been one of the top LBs in the country on one of the best defenses in the country the last two years.Hawk didn't go to a small school like Marshall he went to OHIO ST.

Bush/Leinar/Davis...these guys are impact players. Hawk is a solid starter, who may never see a Pro Bowl.
What hurts the board are posters who make inane comparisons between 2 players who are nothing alike other than their position, school and skin color and refuse to back it up with legitimate analysis.It wasn't meant to be schtick.

The reason why most people suck at ff is because they don't criticize to the extent they do. Spelled out...they see a cheatsheet and they think every player on that sheet is worth drafting at their ADP, when in reality less than half are.

Not sure what skin color has to do with this at all...of the 20 linebackers selected in the top 5 overall picks since 1980, at least half were black. But putting aside skin color, it's far less likely A.J. Hawk would be top 5 overall pick if he played at Marshall because scouts would be unable or less willing to project his production to the NFL level. Hawk was THE dominant defensive player on one of the country's most talented defensive units, playing top tier competition seemingly ever week. If there's a hole in Hawk's game, I'd love to hear your thoughts...Tell me this. If Hawk was a black LB from Marshall would be he be getting picked in the top 5?
I might need to make this a poll.
Well said Grove. I made the same move to avoid this same kind of garbage. At least here it isn't a constant assault. LHUCKS, PM me and I'll link you to a board with many just like you. I'd love some realistic analysis for you prediction just for posterity and fact checking.LBs rarely bust. Hawk is the least likely player in this draft to bust. He may not have the impact of others, but he's a player. Nothing short of injury will keep this guy from being a very good NFL linebacker.![]()
This is precisely the garbage that I hoped that I would not be seeing anymore after moving from a different board. It'd be one thing if there was some analysis to backup a statement that every expert disagrees with, but this is clearly just trolling.
Watching Hawk makes me think of Brian Urlacher, and not because they're both white. They're both smart players that identify plays right away. They both have tremendous sideline to sideline speed. They both seem to be involved in just about every play. They both are intense. They both have good technique.
I'd be very surprised if Hawk does not end up as a Pro-Bowler soon.
Making a vast claim with minimal arguments is what hurts the boards. I'd be much more willing to listen to your claim if you present more constructive arguments.

Hawk is the great white hype from "The Ohio State University"(which hasn't done **** in quite some time now)
Good point. The only reason they won the 2002 championship was obviously that Miami didn't have that element of NFL speed either.The Big10 doesn't have that element of NFL speed that the SEC/Pac10/Big12 do.
that's the way. make an outrageous claim while providing absolutely no info whatsoever, watch it backfire on you, and then run away when people ask you to back up your claim with some reasoned and insightful analysis.I'm all for contrarian thinking, but it would be nice if you'd bring something to the table here other than "He's overrated b/c he's white" and "The Big 10 sucks".The reason why most people suck at ff is because they don't criticize to the extent they need to.

He runs uprightSo you're saying Hawk will suffer a career ending neck injury, too?
No, I think that it accomlished exactly what you wanted. You tossed the bait and a lot of us idiots took it. Feel free to pat yourself on the back for a trolling well done. If I'm wrong and you'd like to have a real discussion, feel free to bring some real reasoning to the table instead of the garbage you've tossed out so far.

this really adds a ton of value to the boards. thanks for sharing.Tom Brady probably shouldn't even be playing in the NFL after coming out of such a horrible conference. Obviously, Drew Bledsoe out of the great Pac-10 is way better than some scrub from Michigan.![]()
This just in...the Big 10 sucks.
LHUCKS is known for stirring the pot on rankings (usually fantasy), but typically he backs it up with some compelling rationale. He's clearlyYou new here?I think LHUCKS is getting exposed.No, but I think that people here generally think he's really knowledgeable and I just don't see it.
Maybe it's the beatdown that I gave you last year that you are missing...or does head to head ff competition not count??Unbelievable.You new here?I think LHUCKS is getting exposed.No, but I think that people here generally think he's really knowledgeable and I just don't see it.
I have no problem with your take that Hawk could be the bust of draft, but you are smart enough to know that if you are going to hold an opinion counter to the norm that you are going to have explain yourself early and often. Just saying a player is going to suck because he is white and from Ohio state gets you the type of response you got and quite frankly deserve. It is accomplishing exactly what you hoped to. don't try to play the innocent. If you wanted a discussion of the merits (or lack of merits) of AJ Hawk you would laid it in the first post and let your argument speak to itself. I think I have seen you do that before and thought you were going to have some pretty good stuff. I hoped for someone to point something out that I missed in regards to Hawk.

Is that the best you got? The fact that you beat me in a survivor league last year?

This and the Vince Young moronic comment should have you banned from posting in the football section of any message board for atleast 1 year....see Katzenmoyer
Can't argue with that logic. This guy never amounted to anything.It's a proven fact that players with bird names never amount to anything.
Can't argue with that logic. This guy never amounted to anything.It's a proven fact that players with bird names never amount to anything.
I have to agree. To this point this doesn't belong in our Shark Pool.You're no idiot LHUCKS, please give some reasoning for your assessment. If you could point to specifics it would make for a much stronger discussion.please back up your statement with something other than "the Big 10 sucks". That shtick is so played and really has no business in the Shark Pool.
Let's not jump to any conclusions here Dave. He's a perfectly good idiot.You're no idiot LHUCKS
Maybe it was a Vegamite sandwich?Bumping potential NFL players up or down depending on what conference they played in anyway lends discredit to anything you espouse (at least when you're comparing one major to another). Just another fishing escapade much like LHUCKS did I'm sure while he was on vacation. I honestly think a kangaroo gave him a quick footy in the gut.
Good post Aaron.LHUCKS, just so you understand where most of us are coming from...this thread you started would be perfectly analagous to someone else starting a thread titled "Matt Leinart = Bust of Draft. See Ryan Leaf" and then when someone asked them for more analysis, they responded the Pac 10 sucks and asked if he would be a top-2 pick if he were a black QB from Marshall.
seriously
