Those arms are indeed freakishly, Charlie Strong index finger type long. Great to see Charles O getting much deserved love. Guy came here when we weren’t shit to be part of the rebuild, put in the work. It’s time to get paid.

I may have inadvertently photoshopped those arms to make them just a little bit more raptor-like than they really are. Inadvertently.

Inadvertently. When a photo makes it look like a player can tie his shoes without leaning over, it tends to be a little obvious that there was some photoshopping going on. That being said, I just started cackling at my monitor when I saw that photo. Perhaps it's due to carry over from a Machinator post on the 2019 Recruiting Thread... 23 minutes ago, Machinator said: Chiropractor? Guy next door? Count me the fuck in.

It's easy to over-hype them. With all of the SEC-ESPN propaganda, people are surprised when they see the actual quality of teams and players in the Big XII.

They highlighted Keke a couple of times. He loved to grab and pull offensive linemen towards him to get them off balance. It worked a couple of times.
January 28, 20196 yr I never really appreciated how good Omenihu was until the last few games of his senior year. We're gonna miss him on the DL next year.
January 28, 20196 yr Omenihu's great game is paying off. In addition to the coverage noted in this thread, he is now showing up in some mock drafts in the first round. This one from CBS has him going late 1st to the Pats. The bad new for me is the Denver pick in this mock draft. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/draft/news/2019-nfl-mock-draft-nick-bosa-drops-from-no-1-senior-bowl-sends-dillard-samuel-omenihu-into-first-round/
January 28, 20196 yr this right here shows the value in returning for your senior year. bravo get paid

January 28, 20196 yr Quote Charles Omenihu, DE, Texas: He has some physical traits that you love, including rare length, and he played really hard today. Some of his big plays were made off of effort and just not quitting on the play. He's not a finished product, but there's a lot to work with, and he helped himself in Mobile. -- Daniel Jeremiah

February 5, 20196 yr Dane Brugler has Omenihu going to New England at #56 in his latest mock: https://theathletic.com/797231/2019/02/05/dane-bruglers-mock-draft-3-0-a-trade-up-for-dwayne-haskins-in-this-two-round-scenario/ Quote 56. New England Patriots (from Chicago) – Charles Omenihu, DL, Texas With his large wingspan and inside-outside versatility on the defensive line, Omenihu is already looking at property in the New England area.

We're gonna miss him on the DL next year. I agree. I was kind of down on him after 3 years and thought he lacked bend and explosiveness. He had a tremendous SR year and I hope he continues to improve.

February 6, 20196 yr Don't get me wrong, I love to see him getting hyped and creating buzz around his name through pre-draft performance. He has put in a hell of a lot of work over the past four years and it great to see it pay off. I think he can definitely have a successful and lucrative pro career. That said, first or second round seems like a reach.

That said, first or second round seems like a reach. It isn't actually. He's one of those prospects that didn't peak in college. His best football will be played in the league for sure.

Both Rounds 2 and 3 are supposed to loaded with best value in 2019 Draft. Patriots will have their own pick in the first round, two picks in the second round (theirs and the Bears’) and as many as three picks in the third round. Those third-rounders include the Lions’ pick and two projected compensatory picks at the end of the round because of the departures of Nate Solder and Malcolm Butler in free agency. Also, current discussions by pundits are wondering if Patriots may package a few picks to move up and grab a QB. Edited February 6, 20196 yr by LTtxfan
February 19, 20196 yr Dude may sneak into the first round on potential alone lol. He's an athletic freak. He'll have a nice NFL career. I'd love it if my Bucs took him, but we suck and he won't go in the top 10. Maybe the Pats will take him at the end of the first.
February 20, 20196 yr 1 minute ago, Catdaddyhorn said: What's the (+ no gain) addendum to this stat mean? It means the number should be even higher than 18, since it includes TFLs plus ball carriers tackled for no gain.

March 1, 20196 yr Charles will be up for measurements today. His wingspan will probably send his stock rocketing up draft boards (even more so than it already is).
