Keyshawn at the Draft

In Gantt's blog.

 

Maybe now they'll be sure not to miss our pick with a TV break.

Cant wait to hear what Key has to say if we draft Ginn.

 

That's not going to happen. Ginn is slipping, runs shitty routes and has small hands. Gonzo is going to be the better of the OSU WR's although he won't be drafted before Ginn.

 

at least he won't be in that four-chair group with Jon Jansen and a couple other dumbasses.

 

I know ive mentioned im pro Ginn but i just mentioned his name tongue-in- cheek-like as it'd get the best reaction from Key.

 

per Goselin (spelling?) Wide receivers come in all sizes. Pro Bowler Steve Smith is 5-9, and Georgia Tech's Calvin Johnson, the top receiver in the 2007 draft, goes 6-5, 239 pounds. But hand size is critical at this position.

Bigger hands translate to more reliable hands on draft day. Nine-inch hands are good, 10-inch hands are better. Johnson has hands that measure 9¾. Ted Ginn Jr. of Ohio State is six inches shorter (5-11) than Johnson but has bigger hands. They measure 10 inches across.

 

Shit, which one of the top WR's did they say had small hands in that, I thought it was Ginn? He does run shitty routes though.

Thanks for pointing that out!

 

lol.

 

They said Ginn has bigger hands than Johnson. They didn't get into wingspan/reach.

The idea of the story, that apparently either got chopped or written in an incomplete thought, is that Smith is small but he measured with an above average wingspan and he had large hands for his size.

 

Yeah, and they talked about one of the draftees that has small hands and it was one of the top 5 guys.
