I've been A Cunningham fan for quite sometime. Excellent blocker, great hands, and is very physical. I said this a few times before...he's a "Hakeem Nicks clone". Cunningham is showing everyone in the Big Ten Championship he's a special player. The last 4 games, including tonight, Cunningham has 9 Tds. Cunningham is 6'2" and 220, the same size as Nick Toon. Jet fans should take notice the better WR is on Michigan State, not Wisconsin. If Cunningham is available in rd 3, it's a no brainer, he would be a solid #2 NFL WR. My Favorite WR in this Draft!!!
Not sure if he has Nicks speed but he defintely is clutch and could be a real good No.2 in the league. Reminds me of a Broncos/Rams Brandon Lloyd more than anything.
Wow... watched the Big Ten championship... definitely a guy I'd like to see on this team. PS What a fucking shame that the game was decided by a punter... I hope he dies in a fire.
I hate to paint this with a generic brush like this but is he Rogers part 2? It seems like so many Rb's and Wr's coming out of the Big Ten suck.
I guees the Jets are in trouble since Holmes and Greene are our feature players at WR & RB. You can't generalize a conference with the success of a player. I do agree RB over the last 10+ years has not been a strenght from the Big Ten transferring to the NFL. Rashad Mendenhall is probably the best of a medicore bunch, he needs to stay healhy. Montee Ball looks like he's made a case to be a Mid-Round pick, if he declares. IMO, Cunningham is clearly the best WR in the Big Ten this season, even better than McNutt and Jenkins. Cunningham is a clutch player, he makes plays when needed and doesn't disappear. 72 rec 1240yards 17.2 average 12 TDs...those numbers speak for themselves, Cunningham is going to be rising up the draftboard. I wouldn't be surprissed if a team grabs Cunningham in late Rd 2. IMO, Cunningham has the best hands in this WR draft class, one of the many reasons he reminds me of Nicks. A weakness of Toon is inconsistent hands, he needs to make more plays.
Cunningham is just a beast on all levels. I thought of him going more of the 4th round range but I can see his stock booming. Maybe even being selected in the back end of the 2nd round . I also see a lot of Anquan Boldin in Cunninghams game, same size ( 6'2 210) out of college, a physical WR, with big hands, crazy good body control, and a surprisingly above average run blocker. The most important thing he does that the Jets really need is he moves the chains! The kid is always fighting for those extra yards and uses his strength to always convert a first down, something that many WRs just don't do. He doesn't exactly run routes that great and lacks that big time speed you look for but as a solid #2 he can do big things IMO. I like him more than McNutt to be honest.
I've gotta hand it to you ---- you've made me a believer. You had him mocked correctly back 10/7 putting him in the 3rd round as opposed to your November mock in the 4th round. We'll be very lucky if he's there in the late 3rd. Hopefully he lays a little egg at the combine. And I agree even further with you --- most JET fans have been caught up in the past with focus on Nick Toon, but Cunningham is better.
WWS..........that was some game in a losing effort. That lateral was a thing of beauty and how Cunningham laid out into the endzone. Toon is a good receiver, but will be a JAG in the NFL. Cunningham passes the eyetest, he makes plays. If I only had 1 player in this draft I could convince Tanny to draft, it would be Cunningham.
Cunningham is really fun to watch. Has great chemistry with Cousins and just goes about his business. Very reliable and in the clutch he comes through. I would love to take him in the middle round. Thought he deserved the 1st team big ten selection over the other guy not Toon forgot his name. He basically only came through in non conference play unlike Cunningham. Very good route runner and has made some good adjustments on the passes and making some changes to keep the play alive. I went to the Big Ten championship game. Will be one of the most disappointing losses i'll ever have to witness.
