86710, NC State vs. Cincinnati
Posted by will_5198, Sat Sep-18-10 01:21 PM
QB Russell Wilson, NC State (5'11, 201) -- What I loved most about Wilson was his repeated check-downs to his backs and tight ends. He always hit them in stride, mostly for first downs, and it was just an impressive display of restraint to see from a collegiate player. Of course, he did have *a lot* of time to scan the field against Cincinnati, with a minimum of three seconds post-snap. Sloppy footwork (play-action especially) and can overly "aim" his passes (mostly missing high). Elusive but not a running threat. His biggest problem is his height, which grazes the limits of NFL standards.

WR Armon Binns, Cincinnati (6'3, 204) -- He's tall and decently fast, which translates into production in the Big East. NFL-wise, it's not so impressive. Lanky build and not physical, which shows in his uneven jump-ball skills. Takes awhile for him to get downfield and lacks suddenness in his routes. Run-blocking is clearly not his passion.
