    i think he will do pretty good. not many people his size can jump as high as him, run as fast as him, or catch as well as him. being 240+ lbs, he'll be able to match up pretty nicely against grown men in the NFL.

    i go to UGA and i didn't see him get "shut down." if tech had a better qb, we would've seen a much different game. CJ is considered by many analysts to be the best NCAA player in the NFL draft - even with a crappy QB, which says alot.

    Calvin Johnson will NOT be a to 10 WR this season. You do know that Charles Rogers is the Lions #1 WR right? That means that CJ won't be thrown too as much as he would like. He won't have the stats and no one on IA can tell you how great he is going to be.

    Terrell Ownes has like 114 career touchdowns. It will take a lot longer than "no time" to surpass TO.

    Calvin Johnson is definitely FTW. Without him GT would have been much worse. It sucks we didnt have a good qb to help him out.

    Nope. You just had to point out a game where UGA was involved. I'm not saying CJ is a great player, but he definitely is far from shoddy. Could be a Pro-Bowler? I think so. Hail, Gail Sayers, Walter Payton, Joe Montana all had bad games here and there. So what? Later, QD.

    He was a great COLLEGE player. Mike Williams and Ryan Leaf were great COLLEGE players. They didn't do so well in the NFL.
