LeBron James is also 6'8" and would've been one of the greatest WRs of all-time if football was the way he went. Just MY opinion. Who knows. In 20 years, all the QBs and Wideouts might be 6'8".

False. Lebron would have polayed TE like winslow, some H back and split out at WR on the goaline when he had to be man covered. Would have been a dominant football player, just not a pure WR.

I know projection is fun in recruiting, but saying he WOULD'VE done this is a bit overboard. He played WR in highschool and had good speed, nothign to stop him from staying there

You may not be far off. Remember the Washington Redskins OL nicknamed "The Hogs" in the early 1980s? They earned that name because all but one was over 300 pounds they were clearly the biggest OL in pro football. Now 20 years later it's not uncommon for a college team to have a OL that averages over 300 pounds each. If a QB today isn't 6'2" or taller, he's considered short, and many of the top HS prospects are 6'4" or taller. In 20 years, any QB under 6'6" could be considered short.

I attend many Woodland Hills games and Marshcreek is not far off. The young man has abaility, and has all the measurables, but he has not grown into his own body yet. He is not fluid and smooth, the plays he makes is because of simple physics, he is bigger then most kids. Having said that, when (not if) he grows into his body the kid will be amazing!!!!!! He has measurables and he has size and speed (his 40 time will be MUCH better this summer) that will easily make the Super 20 in Pittsburgh and the top 25 in PA. For reference PA has A LOT of fantastic prospects next YEAR.
