Good luck to Josh! Didn't see him as a big NFL prospect heading into the season but he sure earned his keep out there. Can't wait to see where he lands.

This is incredibly impressive. He wasn't even a starter for us for many games this past season, including playoffs, and is now projected to be drafted. Wow! Way to go Josh!

Not to mention he was out or limited by injury for a fair part of his career here at NDSU (at least from what I recall, he wasn't a big presence last season). Impressive indeed.

I had an English class with Josh last year, and we had to announce our career goals to the class, and he said his intention was to play in the NFL...at the time I thought it was a long shot, but just looking at him he has NFL size and speed. He had flashes of a big time player last year, and now he's getting it done at the right time with the all-star game and workouts. Good for him!!!

He has got the physical measurables that the NFL scouts, staffs, etc. drool over. Someone will grab him in the late rounds as a project, he hasen't played CB all that long if I remember right, and if he can play Special Teams he will stick. Best of luck to him!

There was never any doubt that Gatlin had elite physical tools. On the surface, there is no way a guy like Freddy Banks should have EVER been able to beat out Gatlin. I tend to assume the coaches know what they are doing, so I guessed that he must have had some trouble with the mental aspects of the game. When he did start playing more, he played very well, so either a light came on at some point or he should've been playing all along.

Gatlin had a better season than Williams. Marcus got burned a few times don't recal Gatlin getting burned all season. Marcus got burned twice against EWU but I think the field conditions hurt him. He has just ad much potential as Josh and he's young.

Gatlins weak point was evident during the Texas vs. Nation game, that is his ability to get off a block and make a tackle. For the most part Gatlin does a great job on pass coverage and has the ability to make a big play i.e. intercept or knock down a pass. IMO the key to Gatlins success in NFL will be improving arm and leg strength to fight off blocks. This will also help him in tough coverage situations.

One thing Gatlin has that Marcus might not is NFL-level speed.

That said, Marcus put in the best coverage performance I've ever seen from a freshman Bison CB. He still has some stuff to work on but, wow, what a first season.

If Gatlin can get on an NFL P-squad for a couple years, then maybe get some playing time on another team or two and parlay that for a little while, he can seriously earn enough money to retire off of. In the end, paying the bills are the most important thing, and if I was him, I wouldn't care if I didn't end up being the next Charles Woodson, just as long as I have that NFL experience for a while.

MWILL is faster than gatlin, pretty sure, just going by 2 years ago.

Date: Jan 28, 2009

Marcus Williams, a 6-foot point guard from Minnetonka (MN) Hopkins, is putting up some outstanding numbers. Williams, one of the state's top two-sport athletes, caught 45 passes for 1,025 yards and 10 touchdowns. He is averaging 8.1 points per game for the nationally ranked Royals, who are 14-0. However, he got his most important number recently, 4.4 40 yard dash according to coach Ken Novak Jr.

High school coaches aren't the most consistent source of 40 times but if Marcus is nearly as fast as Gatlin, that's plenty fast. There are probably darn few players who could run down Taiwan Jones - Gatlin is one of them.

Anyway, pretty sure that Kolpack reported a couple days ago that Gatlin was the fastest guy on the team - kind of surprised me because I thought Mike Sigers was probably the fastest.

ya tony, Sigers should be up there, however, MWILL was the one that tracked down Taiwan and tackled him though.

regardless, gatlin really came on for ndsu, wow.

Naw, we're both wrong. It was Eaves:

Taiwan Jones (http://www.bisonville.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=233336) rush for 63 yards to the NDkSt 2, tackled by Daniel Eaves (http://www.bisonville.com/ncf/player/profile?playerId=240699) for a 1ST down.

Gatlin had no tackles in the game and Marcus tackled Taiwan Jones once (a 2-yard run.)

Mwill and gatlin could run down taiwan, whether they actually did or not is of no consequence.

The kids fast, but his speed was inflated by the EWU fanbase alittle bit.

02-14-2011, 07:06 PM
I believe Bohl said during one of his coaches shows that Gatlin was the fastest on the team.

Still think he's the fastest guy I've seen play FCS football... yeah, he got ran down but I think lack of conditioning was the problem there. He was putting moves on Bison players that made them fall over... then he started to tire out and they teed up on him.

It will be very interesting to see what he will run in the 40.

Gatlin's pick six against the jacks was a thing of beauty. His speed blew away any would be tacklers. Ill always remember his burst to the endzone.

Truth be told (and I'm ashamed to admit it) I thought he was going down for sure somewhere along the line on that play. I saw like five guys that had a line on him and thought "Well hey, that's still some pretty damn good field position." I looked away, heard the crowd get loud and suddenly he's in the endzone. Awesome play, great game to boot.

Don't completely rule Canada ooot! It is fertile ground for kickers (Shaun Suisham, Mike Vandejagt, Mitch Berger, Steve Christie, Klaus Wilmsmeyer).

Jesse Palmer and Mark Rypien are QBs from Canada. So was Tony Mandarich and Bronko Nagurski if you are looking for tough guys.
