and never lived up to his potential, became a locker room cancer, etc., yes, that's the one
Kendrick Rogers
- Thread starter Beast1125
- Start date
He's got a confidence issue, so it seems, and I bet he's in the dumps with his play and injuries. Coaches need to find a way to get the best out of these kids. Let's get him some predetermined routes and touches to change that. If he cant handle the load from there, move in.
Thu fuq? His potential? The guy was a dominant receiver in the NFL for multiple seasons. What are you talking about?
Yep, him and Rogers are like twins, crazy.
I expect the coaches to "find a way to get the best out of these kids..." in the offseason. During the season, if you don't perform, then you don't play. Kendrick Rogers needs to not play so that someone else can have the opportunity that he is currently wasting. He has had 6 games to "figure it out." Should have been given 2 games and then benched. I'd rather see Dylan Wright or another TF out there developing and making mistakes than wasting time with this guy anymore. KR should already be a developed go to weapon. He isn't. Time to move on.
What are we going to say in 2021 when Wright/Jackson run some bonehead route or can't focus enough to catch a ball? Well, we decided to give those early developmental reps to Kendrick Rogers, even after he has clearly shown that he doesn't have it in 2019. The guy got a fair chance. He's been given 6 games to get it together. It's time for another body. Just let A. Smith start in his place for the rest of the year. Rogers can come off the bench.

Here's the truth: He should be a career backup. For all we've hyped up this receiving corps, I think that's the case with most of them.
Ausbon would start on most teams not named Bama. He's consistent, but he's not a game changing playmaker. I think Anais Smith is, at worst, the second best receiver on the roster - and I don't think it's close. I don't understand why we are not featuring him more.
I also don't think there's any question that next year, Ausbon, Smith, and Demas will be the guys. Does anyone doubt that Demas would be starting right now if he were eligible?

I think people really underrate Q Davis. He is better then this board gives him credit for.
He had 81 yards against Bama. Not a world beater, but a pretty good starter.
I agree. I thought about him as soon as I hit the post button. He can be a little inconsistent, but he's solid.
I think Demas would certainly be in the mix, but the WR room right now is an enigma to me. There is so much talent in there, but only Ausbon/Davis/Smith are setting themselves apart right now. Maybe there isn't as much talent in there as what we thought. Maybe some of these guys were overrated coming out of high school. Maybe there is some concern with Craig? I don't know what it is, but I think all questions are fair to ask at this point. I expect probably 2-3 transfers out of that room in the off-season.
The master of the 12yd comeback route. Ran it almost exclusively at the end.
I think for some reason Jimbo just doesn't shuffle receivers in and out. The 3-4 starters seem to play almost every snap. Don't know if that is by design or he has no confidence in anyone else.
I think they're overhyped a little bit. There'd be more production in a wide open offense, but for the most part, they're not on the same level as the top receivers in the country from an athletic standpoint. Just look at Bama, Clemson, and OU for absolute game changers.
I think it's fair to be critical of that. There is no reason why A. Smith shouldn't be more involved in the game plan. And, to me, no reason KR continues to be a starter. Two things jump out immediately and I am not an expert coach at all.
It's something else. CeeDee Lamb could have come here and he almost did, but do you think for a second that he would be the same player here? I don't.
That guy is a stud. OU has developed him nicely. We have a bunch of backups.
I think that's an overstatement. Ausbon is having a really good year and while we may not see it, a lot of scouts really are jumping on the Davis bandwagon. Those guys have been plenty good. Smith has been good. Rogers and Buckley have been terrible disappointments.
shit. If Lamb had come here, he’d probably suck ass.
Like that punk, Jerry f’in Rice.
Anias came in and his play demanded a second and third look. Doesn’t matter if Jimbo tends to be stubborn with his playing time...
Having said that - I hope that the coaching staff sees what we are not and is showing more faith in Kendrick at this point.
Regardless He needs to get more separation to be sure - because SEC officials aren’t going to throw the flag, no matter how flagrantly the DB rides Kendrick in and out of his cuts.

everybody likes QD.
But his blatant drops through the first part of the year were horrific.
I'll take over 4.6 for Rogers for a hundy ... over 4.7 with Preston for that matter. Rogers can't get separation and doesn't run particularly crisp routes - he'll be done playing ball after college.
You're way off. Rogers is at worst a low-4.5 and Preston is at worst a low-4.6.
Rogers' lack of separation is due to his poor route running not a lack of speed.
Sounds like you're making a market at 4.55 - I've got the over and you the under ...
Rogers has ran a verified 4.53 forty before. He’s actually one of the fastest WR’s on the team. Was a great 200 meter running in HS.
Jimbo can be hard headed. Maybe he's waiting for the last 4 games so they don't burn a season.
Dez laughed all the way to the NFL bank. He got $13 million in 2014 and signed a guaranteed $40 million contract ($70m overall) of which $20 million was paid as a signing bonus in 2015. You'll see him next year in a New Orleans uniform. Kendrick could only hope he gets to sniff an NFL locker room.

Rogers has only played maybe a total of 2 solid games in his A&M career, the bowl game, 4th quarter & OT LSU, and 4th quarter Clemson.
If you take out those 3 games, here are his career stats at A&M. 27 games, 40 receptions, 423 yards, 0 TDs. Or 1.5 catches per game for 16 yards.
His entire reputation is built on maybe 8 quarters of football. Also, he only has one more career TD than Jalen Wydermyer.

James Fuller played his senior season with bad turf toe and was limited in what he could do on the field.
He stayed after the coach begged him too, he should have left after his junior year. He took it for the team bad.
