Is Nico Collins the most underutilized All-American caliber WR in U-M history?

Has nothing to do with the topic at hand and everything to do with Maizen in general.

 Each will have 500 receiving yards vs osu. Book it.

I don't understand why people believe, at this point, Tarik Black is a draftable prospect.  He hasn't shown that.  Watch football every Saturday and you'll see dozens of players who look as good and produce at a much, much higher level than Black per target.  I'd be ecstatic if he were drafted, because it would mean he came back for another year and was excellent.  He has not been so this year. 

Black has not been the same since the 2 injuries. Not getting the separation he got freshman year when he was the best of the trio. Hoping he comes back fully healthy and more explosive than ever next year, and doesn’t enter the portal.

Collins is a big boy and a great downfield target...in college.  He struggles to get separation on most routes.  He’ll be a good red zone weapon in the NFL, but doesn’t have the speed to take the top off the defense at the professional level, where CB and safety play are much better.

DPJ has the most NFL upside per measurable. (Speed, height, vertical). He’s the proverbial freak combine athlete. Unfortunately, his route running is not very fluid, meaning he would potentially only be effective as an outside receiver early in his NFL career. The league really likes guys that can play both slot and on the outside, as this drives defenses nuts (Antonio Brown/Odell Beckham Jr)

All 3 have the potential to play in the league - none are the first round elite types we expected before the year began, even if DPJ manages to slip into late round 1 based on potential.

Yes, Shea leaves a lot to be desired in terms of reads and progressions, but this narrative that our receivers are always winning matchups and shea is missing at least 15 open receivers a game is bs.

Bell has been the best receiver this year because he runs the most slippery routes and is our best slot, and decent on the outside as well.  His hands still need some work, but to be fair, all our big 4 have had some bad drops this year. Bell simply gets the most separation right now, be it because of the design of the offense or his crisp route running.

If you want to see what an elite UM receiver looks like, in terms of getting separation on both the outside and in the slot, go watch some film of Mario Manningham.  His double moves were sick, and his slants were run with perfect precision. Braylon, of course, was also elite by his JR year, but he dominated mostly based on size and speed...and his hands often let him down.

Im hoping 2 of the big 3 stay, to join Bell and sansristail to form a balanced core 4. 

This was a remarkably lucid and honest assessment of the wide receivers. Well done! I would add that our wide-outs, as has been noted many, many times, are gifted enough to win jump balls against most college secondary players, but we don't throw enough of those balls. Why we don't make more of those throws is a mystery. It could be that Shea is too skittish to do so, or cannot recognize when it's a good idea. It could be that Harbaugh zealously coaches his QB's not to put the ball in harms way. It could be both...

I don't know, but like everyone else, I'd like to see the QB's air it out downfield for our wide-outs more often. 

All I remember about Funchess at Michigan is him playing his final season like he just didn't give a shit.  Which, frankly, I can't really blame him too much for.

Yeah, eff that college student for having fun during a football game or enjoying a conversation with his friend and teammate where you do not know what was discussed. 

I agree that laughing while getting one's ass beat is a bad look.  That said, they are kids (yes, 18 and 19 year olds are still kids) and they will do stuff like that. 

It's just not worth getting angry about it as a fan.  

Also the time Funchess said wins and losses are just statistics

Oh hi Maizen! If you can't see what the problem with what you do is by this point after dozens on this site have tried to do (including myself), then there's truly no helping you and you need to seek some professional help for yourself. Not joking, and not mocking, but you clearly have a disorder than needs to be treated.
